Sickly Beauty

(I’m lying in bed with my boyfriend, being sick for the second time within two months.)

Me: “I hate being sick… and I’m sick very often.”

Boyfriend: “I am almost never sick. Last time I had a cold was two years ago.”

Me: “Well, that’s not fair.”

Boyfriend: *with look of realization* “Oh, I know why! You are beautiful and sick often; I am ugly and rarely sick! It’s compensation from the universe!”
