"hi."
"hey, doll. how was your day?"
"shit."
"right. you sound like you've been crying."
"i mean, a little bit. I guess."
"do you wanna talk to me about it? no pressure."
"i don't– i don't know. jesus christ. i'm pathetic."
"baby. shh. you're not pathetic at all. whatever the opposite of that is, you're it."
"whatever, dumbass."
"i'm serious! i'm pulling up the thesaurus right now."
"..."
"you are admirable. excellent. stellar, baby."
"ha. i just hate having all of these things wrong with me. i would like one single fucking day where i feel alright, you know?"
"yeah. and you do deserve that, eddie.
"and i just feel so bad about our date. i was looking forward to seeing you."
"hey, don't be worrying about me. we can plan that date for another time. and i want to see you too, but you need to be healthy, okay? your needs come first."
"i just... like you. so much. sorry if that's weird, or something. i just really wanted you to know."
"aw, eds. i like you too so much!"
"i'm pretty sure i probably like you more."
"oh, so it's a competition now? yeah, i've definitely got you beat."
"you sure about that?"
"so sure. can i say something crazy?"
"what?"
"okay, so. hypothetically, if i asked you to be my boyfriend, what would you say?"
"i would say no."
"wha– really?"
"well, yeah. you haven't even taken me out on a date yet! my answer would probably change after that. hypothetically, of course."
"right. hypothetically."
"i'm gonna go, alright? gotta eat dinner and all that."
"oh. what are you having for dinner?"
"meatloaf, i think. gag me."
"take me out to dinner first, eds. jeez."
call ended.
