He had ended the phone yesterday and she was busy thinking all night, how this cheeky boy had suffered. She could easily see that even he hadn't opened up fully yet like her. But her reason for not opening up was sympathy which she didn't need definitely, according to her.

"Hello?" Her voice was not full of the emotions he'd expected. Rather it was normal, the way they used to talk before.
"Hi" his tone held a tight smile.
"How are you?" was her genuine question.
"Better than you." Giving this reply he already felt better.
And her sarcasm was now taking a toll "Are you clinically insane or incredibly annoying?"

"Yes, it just takes me a while to process so much stupidity at once" her response was enough to make him chuckle loudly.
And that's how the next five minutes passed with both of them bantering and talking with each other.
