- incoming call from Quackhead -
"Princess!"
"Oh, Jae?"
"Aw, you remember me"
"Ha, hard to miss after last time"
"I should inform you he did finish that shrine of you"
"Wow, I'm impressed"
"Now what did you do to him?"
"What? What do you mean?"
"He's been moping for the past 7 hours"
"I didn't-"
"He wouldn't even budge for pineapple"
"What does-"
"He's addicted to pineapple"
"But I-"
"I will find you"
"OH MY GOD LET ME TALK"
"Oh yeah, sorry princess"
"I didn't do anything"
"Hmm"
"I swear"
"What's the last thing you guys talked about?"
"Uh...I think I said I hate you"
"Aw c'mon he's a sensitive guy, you can't say that to him"
"I say it all the time, he never cries about it then. It was a joke anyway"
"Did he say anything after?"
"Yeah, he said love you"
He said nothing, instead he squealed.
"Jesus, what are you screaming for?"
"He loves you? As in L- O – V- E?"
"It was a joke. I say I hate you so he says I love you"
"But-"
"I hung up on him"
"Did you apologize?"
"Well no, because he didn't pick up"
"Were you those 37 missed calls?"
"Why are you being such a mom?"
"I've always being a mom to him since his mother d-"
"SHUT IT"
"I didn't mean to-"
"HAND ME THE PHONE AND GET OUT"
"Let me say bye to her"
"Fine, hurry up"
He very loudly whispered "Go get your prince charming!"
She couldn't help the laugh that escaped her lips.
The phone was passed and a door slam was heard.
"Damion..."
No response.
"Your mother. What happened?"
"None of your fucking business"
"You can talk to me about it, if you want to"
A bitter laugh escaped his lips.
"And why would I? You're a stranger"
"I-"
//call ended//
He hung up, but that didn't stop the pang in her heart.
The last word echoing in her mind. Stranger.
