Zain
12:07

it was fine
convo was meh but the sex was decent

Harry the Brat
12:13
Wow. Fine. Meh. Decent.
That's something to write home about

Zain
12:17
u asked

Harry the Brat
12:19
Are you going to see him again?

Zain
12:28
not sure
freddie came down at one point so i tucked him back in and he was weird about it
like idk
u gotta respect that the kid comes first yea
and if u don't i'm not sure u're a person i can respect or even tolerate
dunno

Harry the Brat
12:34
I think I get what you're saying
Sorry it didn't work out

Zain
12:56
s fine
i wasn't really invested
might still see him for sex a bit
when r u leaving?

Harry the Brat
13:29
Wednesday
I'm pretty good at knowing when to talk to people in the UK when I'm abroad but if I don't answer it's because I'm on the other side of the world

Zain
13:52
sure
any plans for the last two days at home?

Harry the Brat
14:06
I'm going up tomorrow first thing to see my mum and stepdad
My sister might come as well

Zain
14:09
give gemma my love

Harry the Brat
14:10
Why??

Zain
14:12
coz i know it'll annoy u
i'm an older brother as well remember

Harry the Brat
14:15
Not my big brother though so that's doubly mean

Zain
14:18
poor baby

Harry the Brat
17:12
You know when you're trying to clear out your fridge and you realise you have way too much food even though the day before you thought you had nothing to eat?
So now I'm trying to cook and bake five things at once to put in the fridge

Zain
17:34
not really

Harry the Brat
17:51
Really? Not even before a holiday?

Zain
18:12
never really been on holiday

Harry the Brat
18:23
Never?
And at uni? Like when you went home, what did you do with your food then

Zain
18:25
took it with me

Harry the Brat
18:26
Sorry

Zain
18:29
whatchu apologising for

Harry the Brat
18:30
Don't know
For assuming maybe

Zain
18:32
s fine
lou and i were planning on going to spain or something after uni
but then freddie happened
at least before i paid for a passport
that'd have been a waste

Harry the Brat
18:35
Maybe you can go now?

Zain
18:39
don't really fancy taking the monster on a plane tbh
but maybe in a couple of years when he can sit still for more than 5 minutes

Harry the Brat
18:43
You're really committed to him

Zain
18:45
he's my kid yea
people often don't get it like
lou is my best friend and won't ever be anything else but freddie is mine as much as he's lou's
when freddie came and his mum couldn't do it lou and i talked about it and i agreed to basically be freddie's second parent even if we don't call it that
but i am
people really don't get it tho
they think i must be in love with lou to want to raise a kid with him
like u need an ulterior motive to love a kid
sorry this got a bit ranty

Harry the Brat
19:00
Sorry I assumed as well

Zain
19:03
s fine
u didn't know me at all
and we do sound like we're married i get that
and honesty u haven't been weird about it at all
like u call him my kid all the time
even some of our friends don't
perrie was the only one got it

Harry the Brat
19:09
Perrie?
And that made me kind of happy to hear not gonna lie
To read I mean

Zain
19:12
perrie's my ex

Harry the Brat
19:15
Oh the one you trust with babysitting!?

Zain
19:19
that's the one

Harry the Brat
19:21
Why did you break up?

Zain
19:23
she moved to london for her job and i was staying in manchester with louis and freddie
for reasons mentioned above
which she got and was cool with
but I might not have put the energy and work i should've into our relationship
and since she's not dumb she dumped me

Harry the Brat
19:28
Good on her

Zain
19:32
i'd say
we're chill now
and like i said sometimes when she's up here she babysits
freddie worships her he's got the biggest crush
and perrie spoils him
she's like his cool aunt with the purple hair
he throws a tantrum every time he sees her and we won't let him dye his hair
s a bit tedious

Harry the Brat
19:37
I adore Freddie
He's a monster

Zain
19:43
u think we named him that for shits
it's well deserved

Harry the Brat
19:54
Alright my cake is ready I gotta clean up the kitchen
Ttyl

Zain
20:09
drive save if we don't talk before

Harry the Brat
23:14
I will
Good night xx

🌱

you know when I say I don't plan this I mean I start writing thinking: oh we'll have a nice conversation about Zain's date and Harry going back to the US... maybe flirt a little
But somehow it develops into zain ranting about ... idek ... co-parenting?
