Love for All

- Did you hear? The priests took Jarrah this morning!
= What? They found his match? I thought he said he was safe.
- No one's safe - not even Jarrah.
= Yeah, I know that. But he had the system figured out.
- Obviously not.
= That's ... scary. Who told you this?
- No one. I saw it with my own two eyes. They dragged him away, kicking and screaming; He was shouting about denial of freedom.
= Heh. Fitting - for Jarrah, I mean. I wouldn't have imagined he'd go easily. Did they say anything about his match?
- The Priests told his mother about some farmgirl out in the country. That Jarrah would do some real work for once in his life.
= His mother must have been happy.
- Yeah, the mothers always are. They never went through it. They just wake up one morning and find their "match" on their doorstep with two Priests ready to marry them right there. It's sickening is what it is.
= Shh! You don't know who's listening.
- Yeah. I get it. I still think it's crap. I saw them take Jarrah away and, yeah, it's news and I suppose it's gossip when you think about it. but this isn't the first time I've seen the Priests take good men away. All in the name of a fascist fanatical ruling.
= I'm not too sure it's fascist.
- Well, whatever it is. It's stupid. There isn't someone out there for each and every one of us. There's no perfect woman who I'm destined to love and by loved by. There's no one for you. And there's no one for Jarrah. I mean, not in a bad way, but there's no fateful matching. How the hell do they even match these people? Sure, they never break up, but you ever wonder that maybe it's cause they're scared to? My mom and dad Hate each other, but they'll never just "split" cause of what the Priests would do if word got out that their system wasn't perfect.
= My mom and dad get along fine. They probably even love each other.
- No they don't. They're more likely faking it. Making the best of a bad situation. I mean, have you ever wondered why the Priests themselves and the Parliamentary members always seem to be matched with the youngest, freshest, most beautiful women around? Do you think they're taken away kicking and screaming? No, because they know what's awaiting them at the end of their journey. Many, many happy nights for them. Maybe those women aren't too happy. Who knows?
= It's just the way things are. You're taking this the wrong way.
- How the hell am I supposed to take it? Jarrah was a good man!
= He's not going away to die. He'll be fine.
- No he won't. None of us will. It kills you inside, till there's nothing left worth living for. Why bother staying alive another day when they rip out your heart and feed it to whoever they deem fit? It's all up to them - scumbags.
= What's that car doing down there?
- Which one?
= That black one - the one with the ... Priests.
- Coming this way. Damn! Run!
