"Chicken! Oh my gosh you finally called! I was so worried when you hung up on me so suddenly last night and oh my gosh, what happened? Are you okay? Did you die? Well of course you didn't die because you're talking to me but--"

"Princess--"

"-- I was worried for a second that you died or something because you scared me so much and--"

"Princess--"

"--- I normally don't get so scared but you actually scared me when you yelled like that and I couldn't--"

"ASANDA!"

"--Hmm?"

"Are you done rambling?"

"...Uh...yeah I'm done, wait...you're talking without pauses, are you okay?"

"That's what I called to talk to you about although I'm late.."

"Are you okay? That call last night was a bit scary"

"Sorry about that."

"Don't worry about it. Are you okay?"

"You know...hearing you saying that you were worried about me was ... nice to hear, I mean its not everyday that I hear you say that"

"Yeah. I'm not very good at emotions and what not. "

"I can tell, but thanks for worrying about me anyway"

"No worries. But are you okay?"

"I'm ...do you ramble a lot?"

"Are you subtly trying to change the subject?"

"Is it working?"

"No. You're not being very subtle at all"

"..."

"Why can't you tell me if you're okay or not?"

"Iwontbeabletotalktoyouforthewholeweek"

"What?"

"...I...I won't be able to talk to you for the whole week princess"

"What? Why?"

"I'll be...busy"

"Busy?"

"Yes busy...I have to go somewhere to be busy...for the whole week"

"You're not making any sense"

"You said I never make any sense"

"I'm being serious Colton."

"...Look, I can't tell you why I can't talk to you for a week"

"Why not?"

"Because"

"Because?"

"Yes Asanda Because!"

"...no need to shout, I just wanted a proper reason"

"Sorry...I'm just stressed these days"

"Don't take it out on me"

"I'm just making it even!"

"Are you really going to go there Colton?"

"No...I'm ...fuck! ... you wouldn't understand!"

"Then make me understand!"

"No. My life it too complicated, I told you I'm a messed up person"

"Why can't you just give me the simple answer of telling me if you're okay or not?!"

"Its because I'm not fine okay? Is that what you wanted to hear?!"

"Why are you shouting at me?!"

"I don't know, you're fucking stressing me out and I'm already stressed as it is"

"By asking a question?! Are you serious Colton?"

"That question holds more depth then you could ever imagine Asanda"

"...I--"

"I'll call you later"

"When is later?! As in a week later?!"

"As in fucken later!"

"What--"
