"It's like 3AM."

"Do you think I give a fuck? I know you're watching a series anyway."

"..yeah, you're right."

"Well, I'm not calling for nothing. I just really can't sleep."

"You want me to come over or something?"

"As much as I want to bother you, no. I want to be alone. I just really want to talk. "

"Well, spill, then."

"Mom called."

"Okay. What did she say?"

"She... shit. "

"What?"

"She.. wants me to go back. In London. They're in Australia right now. They want me to study Business Management. I'm taking over the business."

"I thought you didn't want to do that?"

"Well, it is what I was born for."

"No, it's not."

"..Yeah."

"So, what do you plan to do?"

"I mean, do I even have a choice?"

"..You're leaving, then? What about L.A.?"

"L.A. will not miss me, Toby."

"I will. Tom will. Your new friends will."

"Yeah. They'll forget me, real quick, I tell you."

"They won't. I tell you. I won't. You have a choice, Val."

"I don't, Toby! You know this. "

"..."

"It was hard to have let me stay here with you. I can't do it another time. You know how I hate burdening my parents with my requests."

"So, you're just gonna let this opportunity pass?"

"What opportunity?"

"..nothing."

"What opportunity, dammit?!"

"If you're not gonna stay, you wouldn't know."

"..."

"..sorry."

"I'm sorry too. Fuck. I don't know what to do."

"Whatever you plan to do, tell me and we'll figure it out."

"Okay. Bye."

"Bye. I'll go there tomorrow morning."

"Okay."
