It All Boils Down to Fate

I have a 28 yr-old friend, XL, whose growing-up cycle seems to be reversed.
He picked up smoking only at 27.
Tries to look cool as he huffs and puffs, trembling fingers ( Parkinson disease ? ) holding the cigarette in a cinematic pose.
His kinda-old car is fitted with flashing blue neon lights and rows of meters which serve no useful purpose.
It is funny because these are things we try and do at age 15.
Except for his ego, he's a really nice person though.

He looks below average but somehow managed to get a pretty gf.
Recently, he announced that a girl is chasing him and he showed us her picture.
She looks like one of those babes whom people download from the internet...
So yes, we are all flabbergasted...
They are dating now = He is two-timing

My brudder G sadly explains that its fate lah.
