Crazy Arguments--my first piece creative writing

A: ‘John Smith is a smart man if he writes on the interior wall of all the men’s toilet in the world that “John Smith loves Jenny Potter!”
B: ‘What? Yes, it is true if Jenny Potter is a man!’
C: ‘Those who agree with B are too shallow and narrow-minded. The writing on the toilet wall is not for Jenny Potter! It’s for someone else!’
D: ‘Well, then John Smith must be clear who exactly that writing is for. It must be either for those who rival with John Smith or those who ally with him. But neither of them will work for its aim!’
E: ‘How can D be so sure that John Smith must have a rival or must have some male allies to help him?’
F: ‘John Smith is a thoughtful guy as he prepares for the worst and for the best. The writing is aimed for both rivals and allies because it can scare away some rivals by declaring war against them and attract some allies by virtue of empathy and sympathy. ‘
G: ‘Why doesn’t he write “Jenny Potter loves John Smith” instead? Why those other than John Smith’s close friends will help him, without knowing who John Smith is and even Jenny Potter is?’
H: ‘Is John Smith’s great plan feasible?’
I: ‘Perhaps John Smith is a billionaire and does not have to do it by himself. ‘
J: ‘I would not do that to just please a woman if I were a billionaire!’
K: ‘Perhaps John Smith has tried all other means.’
L: ‘Perhaps Jenny Potter does not like a billionaire!’
M: ‘Perhaps John Smith is crazy.’
N: ‘Perhaps Jenny Potter is crazy too!’
O: ‘Perhaps you are all crazy too!’
P: ‘Hey, let’s focus on arguments! Don’t waste time!’
Q: ‘P has made a “good” argument!’
R: ‘Excuse me, is that question good to argue?’
S: ‘Of course, its answer will have real important implications over the world!’
T: ‘But we have too little information and too many assumptions.’
U: ‘The world is never perfect and we must accept some assumptions in order for the world to move!’
V: ‘No, it is because we have freedom of expression and we must enjoy its full measure to talk about it!’
W: ‘To talk about what? I am just back from the toilet......’
X: ‘Whether John Smith should paint on all of the interior toilet walls in the world that he loves Jenny Potter!’
Y: ‘No! Whether it is a good question to argue X’s question!’
Z: ‘No! Whether we are all crazy or we are exercising our freedom of speech!’
…… ……
ALL(A, B,C…….X,Y,Z): ‘Oh! Time’s up!’
