I do not understand why you've decided to do a doctorate about repairing some bloody electricals

P: I do not understand why you've decided to do a doctorate about repairing some bloody electricals, you could have been a solicitor, a politician, in finance, making mounds of money, instead you convinced yourself that you could save the world with a spanner and foolishly forgot to save herself''? 

M: I always intended to do it all, do a doctorate, be a solicitor, politician, in finance, making mounds of money, save the world with all tools available to me as well as save myself.

P: Truly, I always dreamt for you to be a writer

M: You already know I am. I just needed to take the long road to have enough materials to share

P: Happiness and joy

M: as well as pain and sorrow

More importantly to be honest, true so the reader and I can become true friends, venture in and out on the rive of life together
