Cecilia
Awwwwn (deeply amazed) I'm totally coming to your house after work

Cecilia
Cecilia
We gotta start going, meet you at our favorite park, from there we'll walk to work
Cecilia
Cecilia
Muah, see you soon bestie (ends the call and starts rushing)
Lucy
Lucy
okay okay I'm coming I'm coming (starts to leave in a hurry too)
Meanwhile at the park, Tyler is already on his way to work with his friend
Tony
Tony
(serenely) Do you think it'll be so much stress
Tyler
Tyler
(reflectively) I don't know, animations can't be really that hard especially when there's no sci Fi stuffs involved right
Tony
Tony
(sighs) Well I really don't know or care too, just there for the cash
Tyler
Tyler
Yep, obviously life's main goal is about making money, without a good amount of money, you can't really be satisfied
Tony
Tony
Yeah, spoken the facts about this strange life, All hopes lyes on God
Tyler
Tyler
Hmmmm
Tony
Tony
(thoughtfully) When are you thinking of settling in for love
Tyler
Tyler
(softly) I don't know, anytime I feel ready
Tony
Tony
You may meet someone anytime soon, you can fall in love anytime, even now
Tyler
Tyler
Yep maybe
Tyler
Tyler
I don't really believe in all that again
Tony
Tony
Ah what about your parents love, what do you call that
Tyler
Tyler
(sighs) I believe in true love but I don't believe that I'll ever fall for one
Tony
Tony
(chuckles) It's always your kind that ends up falling for one after saying that
Tyler
Tyler
Oh pls, this ain't a ROM com movie
Tyler
Tyler
it's reality
Tony
Tony
Sure, sure, we shall see
Tyler
Tyler
Pfft
Continues their walk
Lucy
Lucy
Ceciliaaaaaaaa (running towards them and passes them to hug Cecilia)
Cecilia
Cecilia
(gladly hugs her) Bestieeee
Tyler
Tyler
(uncaringly forces his way through them in a calm annoying manner)
Lucy
Lucy
(shocked with Cecilia) Hey watch it
Tony
Tony
(caringly) Don't you think you took it too far
Tyler
Tyler
Nope (sighs) we don't even know them, no big deal
Cecilia
Cecilia
(tries to get his attention to turn back by grabbing his right shoulder) Hey, what's the matter
Tyler
Tyler
(ignores her and keeps walking away with Tony)
Lucy
Lucy
Wow that's so rude
Cecilia
Cecilia
(reflectively) Don't mind them, God will judge him, his friend seemed nicer
Lucy
Lucy
Yeah some people can be so rude, it makes me sick (starts to run to work)
Cecilia
Cecilia
Wait up (trying to keep up with her)
Lucy
Lucy
(intentionally bumps into him as she runs)
Tyler
Tyler
(sighs) *idiot*
Tony
Tony
Hehehe a perfect payback
Tyler
Tyler
That's her problem
Tony
Tony
HMMMMMM
Tyler
Tyler
You were talking about love, don't bother me about love just because you think you've found the one
Tony
Tony
(confidentially) I'm certain, I found the one, almost a year
Tyler
Tyler
I know a couple that has been married for 12 years, yet they still got divorced
Tony
Tony
(surprised a little) hmm
Tyler
Tyler
So don't get your hopes up for such
Tony
Tony
Our parents didn't divorce, neither did our cousin's parents or friend's parents, so if you ask me, that's enough proof that there is true love
Tyler
Tyler
(sighs) I guess you're right then, there is enough proof, change topic, I wish you luck in your relationship life
Tony
Tony
Our wedding is this year
Tyler
Tyler
Oh nice, don't invite me
Tony
Tony
Are you kidding me (amused) You're totally invited, you're my best friend, you're the best man
Tyler
Tyler
Please don't, anyone could do that, I don't wanna be involved in any public events of celebrations
Tony
Tony
(chuckles) Already involved bro, then how would you marry
Tyler
Tyler
Even if I marry, it'll be very low key, straight to the point
Tony
Tony
Hehehe I don't think your future wife would want that
Tyler
Tyler
If she doesn't want what I want, she's not meant for Me, and that means I'm better off single forever (finally approaches their work place with him)
Tony
Tony
(a little disappointed at his point of view on relationship) She doesn't have to be exactly similar to you, before you can love her
Tyler
Tyler
Sure (uncaringly heads to the elevator)
Lucy
Lucy
(quickly jumps in with Cecilia)
Cecilia
Cecilia
(relieved) we made it (checking the time on her phone)
Lucy
Lucy
(excited) yessssss grown uppssssss
Tony
Tony
(amused, holding his laugh)
Lucy
Lucy
(slowly turns to greet them) Hey, good morning gentlemen
Cecilia
Cecilia
Morning
Lucy
Lucy
Wait a minute (recognizes Tyler's face) You're the guy that hit me on purpose, impatient
Tyler
Tyler
Hmm (remains speechless)
Lucy
Lucy
You still won't apologize huh, so what are you doing here
Cecilia
Cecilia
So you work here?
Tyler
Tyler
(ignoring them)
Tony
Tony
Hehehe sorry guys, my friend can be so quiet
Cecilia
Cecilia
Why do you have to speak for him
Lucy
Lucy
Yeah why (annoyed)
Tony
Tony
Hehe no matter how angry you may seem, he won't answer you
Lucy
Lucy
So rude, even after the trouble you caused, you still don't wanna talk to me
Tyler
Tyler
(uncaringly not looking at them, tries to leave as the elevator stops)
Lucy
Lucy
(stops him by standing in his way with a serious annoyed face) Hmm apologize
Tyler
Tyler
(coldly looks down at her)
Cecilia
Cecilia
(a little scared at his reaction) Uhmm Lucy, let's just go
Lucy
Lucy
Noooooo
Tony
Tony
Uhmm let's just forget about this, come on
Lucy
Lucy
No way, until he says something
Tyler
Tyler
(walks through her by force)
Lucy
Lucy
(almost falls)
Cecilia
Cecilia
(catches her)
Lucy
Lucy
Heyyyyy!
Tyler
Tyler
*Utterly useless, just because a stranger did that, you'd still bother the stranger, why is she even here, hope she isn't my co worker*
Lucy
Lucy
(still jumps right in front of him, right in his way) hmmm (seriously staring at him closely)
Tyler
Tyler
(sighs) Sorry, now leave me alone
Lucy
Lucy
(hesitates as she maintains eye contacts and starts to feel extremely nervous) Woowww (turns her back on him in great shyness)
Tyler
Tyler
Hmm (uncaringly leaves with Tony)
Cecilia
Cecilia
(Shocked) What happened
Lucy
Lucy
I think he likes me
Cecilia
Cecilia
(amused) Lol be serious, stop the jokes, he apologized right, that's settled
Lucy
Lucy
(seriously faces her with great amazement) Bestie I'm serious, I saw it in his eyes, like I felt it, like love
Cecilia
Cecilia
(confused) Huh
Cecilia
Cecilia
Uhmm
Cecilia
Cecilia
You sure you're okay?
Cecilia
Cecilia
Are the cats too much stress?
Lucy
Lucy
Bestie I'm serious, I don't know how to explain it, but I can feel it, like I know him somewhere
Cecilia
Cecilia
oh that makes more sense now, if it's someone you've never met, it'll be Disney weird to say you felt love (starts to laugh teasingly)
Lucy
Lucy
Oh bestie hehehe (nervously starts thinking of her past)
Lucy
Lucy
Where do I know this guy (carefully recalling)
Cecilia
Cecilia
(starts to drag her to their office)
Lucy
Lucy
Seriously, I'm still trying to think here
Cecilia
Cecilia
(sits down on her desk while she sits on her seat) Focus, we got serious background scenes to do today
Lucy
Lucy
Fine fine, hmm Tyler Tyler Tyler.... Yesss, his name is Tyler, I use to have a crush on him, yes yes
Cecilia
Cecilia
Oh wow, when exactly (suddenly curious)
Lucy
Lucy
High school yes
Lucy
Lucy
(A little surprised but still excited) Wow time flies so fast, I remember him quite well, he was so bad
Cecilia
Cecilia
(amazed) Woah, bad in what way
Lucy
Lucy
He tried to kiss me
Cecilia
Cecilia
(cheerfully ready to hear the full story) Omg, tell me more (sits properly as she brings out some snacks from her bag)
Lucy
Lucy
(greatly amused) Okay I think we were in 3rd year or 4th year, it was like he was so Into me, we were in a private place, he tried to play some childish game with me and force himself to literally kiss me
Cecilia
Cecilia
(chuckles) Boys can be so weird
Lucy
Lucy
I know right, but now he seems so different from before
Lucy
Lucy
Is there anything I'm forgetting
Cecilia
Cecilia
Well maybe later we can remind him about it, besides that maybe why he's rude, he doesn't want you spilling his beans
Lucy
Lucy
True, he may truly not like been known about that, but I think there's a lot more to it
Cecilia
Cecilia
Let's just focus on our project for now, after work today, we can try and talk to him
Cecilia
Cecilia
I think we even have someone else here too, considering the third desk here
Stella
Stella
(walks in very quietly and sits down, immediately focusing on her project)
Lucy
Lucy
(totally shocked with Cecilia) uhmm hi
Cecilia
Cecilia
Hi
Stella
Stella
(ignores them completely)
Cecilia
Cecilia
(whispering, totally disappointed) That's so rude
Lucy
Lucy
Tell me about it, she didn't even look at us
Cecilia
Cecilia
Let's just do the project quick and get to talk to Tyler
Lucy
Lucy
(agreely) Right!
several hours later of animation projects
NovelToon
Lucy
Lucy
Finally, let's go, quick please, I hope he hasn't left
Cecilia
Cecilia
(quickly follows her as she starts rushing, checking around)
Cecilia
Cecilia
Wait up
Lucy
Lucy
Where could he be
Cecilia
Cecilia
(notices him as they pass an office) There
Lucy
Lucy
(walks right in) Hey, Good morning everyone
Lucy
Lucy
(nervously walks towards Tyler's desk)
Cecilia
Cecilia
(whispers) Evening
Lucy
Lucy
*Oh actually, how could I be so dumb*
Tyler
Tyler
(sighs and gloomily) what....
Tony
Tony
Hey guys, to what do we owe this favour
Tyler
Tyler
*This isn't a damn favour*
Lucy
Lucy
Well he was my classmate
Tony
Tony
(Amazed) Wow really
Cecilia
Cecilia
Yes yes, she was his cru...
Lucy
Lucy
(quickly cuts in after covering her mouth) I was a great friend of his
Tyler
Tyler
(softly) I know, you were my crush, no need to cover that up, I almost kissed you by all means, we had a rough relationship history, now leave me alone.... All your questions answered
Lucy
Lucy
That's right (realizes more memories) We did have a rough relationship history
Cecilia
Cecilia
Wait what, you've dated him....
Lucy
Lucy
(completely speechless as she looks at him) Wow
Tony
Tony
Uhmm (disappointed by his reaction)
Tyler
Tyler
(gets up calmly with his laptop and leaves)
Tony
Tony
(sighs) Tyler
Lucy
Lucy
Uhmmm (totally lost on what to do, feeling a little sad)
Cecilia
Cecilia
Are you sure you're okay with this, if he's your ex, you don't have to even talk to him
Lucy
Lucy
(sighs as they leave) He's not my ex
Cecilia
Cecilia
Huh, but he said rough relationship history
Lucy
Lucy
Because it nearly ended up like that, we weren't dating but we did do some things like we liked each other
Cecilia
Cecilia
Ohhh I see
Lucy
Lucy
(feelingly) the painful difference is that I was just like trying to satisfy my sexual desires, I never really liked him and I also think he also didn't really like me but it seemed like he did want to ask me out
Cecilia
Cecilia
Ah then he did like you
Lucy
Lucy
That's what I'm saying
Cecilia
Cecilia
(lost in thoughts) Uhmm seriously
Cecilia
Cecilia
Anyway why is he so mad about something that happened a long time ago, right, forget all of that, if you like him, go for it
Cecilia
Cecilia
Even if he doesn't like you back, hehehe (not certain)
Lucy
Lucy
I honestly believe that he does like me, infact right now even after the way he coldly said out his past uncaringly
Lucy
Lucy
I still know he loves me
Cecilia
Cecilia
Hehehe come on Bestie, don't jump into that conclusion
Lucy
Lucy
No, it may sound crazy but I'm sure he does, he's just not ready for it or something, but I know he does, I need to show him that I really care
Cecilia
Cecilia
(still uncertain but ready to help her bestie happily) Okay then, what's the plan bestie
Lucy
Lucy
Sleep over tonight
Lucy
Lucy
We will talk about it, tomorrow we must get him to talk with me in private
Cecilia
Cecilia
Okay bestie (hugs her as they part ways home) Can't wait

Straight to the point

In Lucy's home
Lucy
Lucy
Huh (gets up weakly, seeing Cecilia dressing up)
Cecilia
Cecilia
(Throws her work clothes at her in a haste) We're late
Lucy
Lucy
(starts running to work with her)
Cecilia
Cecilia
I can't believe we slept throughout, the work was so stressful, we didn't even have time to talk about Tyler
Cecilia
Cecilia
(running way faster than Lucy)
Lucy
Lucy
(feeling so dizzy) How can we be so late to the point we don't even have time to hustle a cab
Cecilia
Cecilia
(slows down to drag Lucy) Come on, bestie
(few minutes later in their office)
Stella
Stella
Not support
Lucy
Lucy
(tiredly sits down as she continues her sleep on her desk)
Stella
Stella
Weirdos.....
Cecilia
Cecilia
(tries to wake her up but also falls asleep on her desk)
Stella
Stella
Seriously.... (Continues listening to music while she focuses on her project)
Stella
Stella
(Later gets some water and wakes them up by pouring it on them)
NovelToon
Lucy
Lucy
(astonished with Cecilia as they get up fast) Whyyyyy
Cecilia
Cecilia
Seriously, you couldn't find a more appropriate way
Stella
Stella
(totally calm about it) Apparently I can't do this project all by myself, so you two better help me out with it or our whole team or office or whatever will be cut off, meaning we all get fired, so get to work, lunatics
Lucy
Lucy
(agreely) Fine, sorry, we had a pretty rough day yesterday
Cecilia
Cecilia
Yeah the work was pretty much than we thought
Stella
Stella
(totally ignoring them as she continues her work)
Cecilia
Cecilia
Uhmmm
Cecilia
Cecilia
Are you thinking of what I'm thinking
Lucy
Lucy
(gladly) Yes we're gonna look for her trouble (whispering deeply to her)
Cecilia
Cecilia
Yes yes, let's get back at her with some water
Cecilia
Cecilia
(tries to observe her)
Stella
Stella
(softly) Don't even think about it....., there's a lot more where that came from
Cecilia
Cecilia
*Ahhh she already suspects us*
Lucy
Lucy
What a boring Co worker, so annoying (sighs)
Cecilia
Cecilia
Let's just get to work and meet Tyler
Lucy
Lucy
without a plan
Cecilia
Cecilia
Last time we had no plan, we slept throughout last night, so might as well talk to him today or wait till tomorrow
Lucy
Lucy
Fine fine, I will talk to him today
(after hours of hardcore work)
Lucy
Lucy
Seriously don't we need more people in our team
Cecilia
Cecilia
I guess our work is hard but not as hard as other teams
Stella
Stella
(gets up, readily leaving to dodge the rain)
Lucy
Lucy
Uhmm it is quite cloudy
Cecilia
Cecilia
Let's check for Tyler
Cecilia
Cecilia
(quickly checks his office with Lucy, noticing him still there alone)
Cecilia
Cecilia
This is your chance
Lucy
Lucy
(suddenly becomes shy) Uhmm let's just do it tomorrow
Cecilia
Cecilia
Come on, bestie, he's all alone
Lucy
Lucy
Tomorrow please
Cecilia
Cecilia
Fine (exaggerates as she drags her back and pushes her into the office making her seen by Tyler with no choice but to talk)
Cecilia
Cecilia
Goodluck (cheerfully leaves)
Lucy
Lucy
Oh no, Bestieeeeee (becomes speechless as he takes a glance at her and continues his work) Uhmmm soo
Tyler
Tyler
Hmmm.....
It starts to rain heavily
NovelToon
Lucy
Lucy
(sits down next to him) How's it going
Tyler
Tyler
(no response)
Lucy
Lucy
Uhmmm what, you're not gonna say anything
Tyler
Tyler
(still leaves her hanging)
Lucy
Lucy
Uhmmmm (quickly carries his laptop)
Tyler
Tyler
(sighs) What.....
Lucy
Lucy
Let's talk
Tyler
Tyler
Hand it over, I need to finish that in time, and head home
Lucy
Lucy
one condition, once you're done, we will have a little talk first or give me your number, 2 options, you decide, or I'll hold on to this laptop
Tyler
Tyler
*That's her way of talking to someone, with threats* Fine, once I'm done, a little talk
Lucy
Lucy
Nice choice (hands it back to him)
Lucy
Lucy
Wait a minute, did you intentionally dodge the number part because you don't want me calling you
Tyler
Tyler
Don't ask me, you're the one that gave the options, just leave me alone or jump straight to the point, what do you want
Tyler
Tyler
If it's about our past, I'm sorry or whatever, the past is the past, leave me alone now
Tyler
Tyler
I just want to live my life in peace, is that too much to ask
Lucy
Lucy
(amused and cheerfully comes closer to him) First of all, I'm not leaving this office without your number, second of all, I will jump straight to the point
Lucy
Lucy
Which is, I wanna hangout with you this Saturday or anytime you're free
Tyler
Tyler
(sighs) I'm always busy (continues his graphics editing)
Lucy
Lucy
(holds his hands, stopping him from typing, strictly) no one is always too busy
Tyler
Tyler
Well I am (uncaringly releases his hands from hers) Go home, take my number, (hands his phone over to her)
Tyler
Tyler
*as long as I know that I'm not picking any of her calls or texts, I shouldn't be worried about her getting my number*
Lucy
Lucy
Uhmm (excited) Thanks so much hehe, you better reply me and answer my calls
Tyler
Tyler
Sure... *keep dreaming*
Lucy
Lucy
(Drops his phone backs after confirming his number with messages and calls)
Lucy
Lucy
So anyway, about our past, I should be sorry
Tyler
Tyler
(calmly cuts in) I told you, the past is the past
Lucy
Lucy
I just wanna be clear on some things, so listen
Tyler
Tyler
Hmmm *God, why won't this lady leave me alone*
Lucy
Lucy
Uhmmm I'll tell you when we hang out, Saturday you must be free right
Tyler
Tyler
No, I'm hanging out with friends
Lucy
Lucy
(gladly) oh thanks for inviting me
Tyler
Tyler
Huh
Lucy
Lucy
What time should I come
Tyler
Tyler
Ahhh, seriously, I'm not sure they'd be okay with you coming along
Lucy
Lucy
Oh I'm pretty sure they will, (gladly staring at him) Hmmm I can't wait, so what should we talk about
Tyler
Tyler
Hmmmm (remains speechless)
Cecilia
Cecilia
(walks in with a lot of snacks)
Lucy
Lucy
Bestie, hey Tyler, meet my bestie
Tyler
Tyler
(sighs)
Cecilia
Cecilia
(winks at him, teasingly)
Tyler
Tyler
*Darn these people*
Lucy
Lucy
Saturday he invited us to a friend's hangout
Cecilia
Cecilia
(extremely excited) Wow really
Lucy
Lucy
Yes bestie
Tyler
Tyler
*what the heck* Hmmm (so disappointed at himself)
Tyler
Tyler
*Why did I hesitate to bring up a reasonable excuse to her, that's so not me*
Lucy
Lucy
(starts eating the snacks with her bestie) Hey Tyler, you want some
Tyler
Tyler
(shutsdown his laptop and gets up, ready to leave)
Lucy
Lucy
(really concerned) You're going under this heavy rain
Tyler
Tyler
Yeah
Lucy
Lucy
You'll catch a cold
Tyler
Tyler
(uncaringly) I know
Lucy
Lucy
Then don't go
Tyler
Tyler
Don't tell me what to do (starts leaving)
Lucy
Lucy
(stops him immediately by grabbing his hand) I'm not gonna let you go anywhere
Tyler
Tyler
(sighs) I have a car, leave me alone
Lucy
Lucy
The parking lot, is still too far from here, you'd still be at risk in catching a cold
Cecilia
Cecilia
(happily watching them as entertainment) *Love in real life is so romantic*
Tyler
Tyler
(forcefully frees his hands off hers) Okay then, I'll stay
Tyler
Tyler
*Stop bothering my life*
Tyler
Tyler
(sits down, a little annoyed) Hmmm
Lucy
Lucy
(sits near him again) So what would you be doing at home after this
Tyler
Tyler
(pretends to fall asleep)
Lucy
Lucy
Answer me (tries to tickle him)
Tyler
Tyler
(no reaction to that) Leave me alone, I'm staying because I don't wanna catch a cold, not because of you
Lucy
Lucy
Wait a minute, that didn't make you laugh at all
Tyler
Tyler
(gets up again)
Lucy
Lucy
It's cold....
Tyler
Tyler
I'm going to another office because I prefer to be alone, so leave me alone
Lucy
Lucy
(sighs) Okay
Tyler
Tyler
(heads to another office, noticing sudden messages)
(in social media, messenger)
Lucy
Lucy
😝Hey
Lucy
Lucy
Hope that office isn't too cold♥️😊
(He offs his phone)
Tyler
Tyler
Damn her (tries to sleep)
Cecilia
Cecilia
Are you sure that you're not like you know, disturbing him
Cecilia
Cecilia
(totally concerned)
Lucy
Lucy
Yes yes (sadly starts to think)
Lucy
Lucy
I guess
Cecilia
Cecilia
Honestly he seemed disturbed by you, he doesn't behave like someone that even likes you, talkless of love
Lucy
Lucy
No, no, even with the behavior, I'm sure he loves me (tries to sleep too)
Cecilia
Cecilia
Wow uhmm (still not certain about her thoughts on him) Okay I trust you, bestie
Lucy
Lucy
Hehe me too, bestie, I'll bother him with calls once we get home
Cecilia
Cecilia
We'll have a sleep over this night too right
Lucy
Lucy
Yes of course (gladly accepts)
Lucy
Lucy
Maybe we should start taking coffee

Cecilia
(thoughtfully like a child while she eats her pop corn) Yes maybe
Lucy
Lucy
Grownnnnn uppppsss
Cecilia
Cecilia
(chuckles, cheerfully) Grownnnn uppsssss
Tyler
Tyler

Tyler
Tyler

Tyler's Depression

Star plus animations LTD
Stella
Stella
(Strictly dragging Cecilia and Lucy to the office from their ears)
Lucy
Lucy
Ow ow ow ow, that hurts so much, come on
Cecilia
Cecilia
Give us a break please (pleading) We're sorry
Stella
Stella
You guys weren't even ready to come to work today, right
Lucy
Lucy
No hehehe of course not (chuckles with an unsure mood) Trust us
Stella
Stella
(looks at her and sighs) Lucy, I came to your house, saw Cecilia sleeping over scattered pop corn and you, sleeping off your bed, with Tyler's pics on your phone
Stella
Stella
What are you, pervs (sighs) pushes them right into the office
Stella
Stella
Anyways get to work
Cecilia
Cecilia
(Trying to feel her ear) Ouch wow, what a stressful Co worker
Lucy
Lucy
(thoughtfully) Maybe we would have been fired today, if not for her
Cecilia
Cecilia
Give me a break, they can't seriously fire 2 of their most skilled animators
Lucy
Lucy
Uhmmm we aren't the only ones, lol
Lucy
Lucy
Wait a minute (goes to Stella's desk) Don't tell Tyler about his pic (seriously pleading with her)
Stella
Stella
Do I look like I care
Lucy
Lucy
Wait a minute, how do you know that it's Tyler
Stella
Stella
(sighs) friends.... Now get to work, weirdos

NovelToon
Cecilia
Cecilia
(already eating them up)
Lucy
Lucy
So uhmm, Stella, what do you know about Tyler
Stella
Stella
(sighs) As much as I hate to admit it, if you like him or something, don't involve me into all these pitiful girl's drama
Stella
Stella
If you like him, tell him, ask him out, get over it, nervousness or crap ain't gonna take you anywhere
Stella
Stella
(coldly working on her project, barely caring)
Lucy
Lucy
Uhmmm (feels a little disappointed at her cold behavior) You actually behave nearly like him
Lucy
Lucy
I can see why you're his friend (sadly gets up and heads to her desk, continuing the project)
Stella
Stella
Hmm
Cecilia
Cecilia
Don't worry, bestie, I trust you, if you're sure he loves you, then I'm positive that he does
Lucy
Lucy
Thanks bestie (cheers up a little)
Stella
Stella
Hmm, weirdos, even if he does, he'll never admit such to you, he'll just wait for the feelings to fade away
Lucy
Lucy
True love feelings can't fade away (totally sure)
Stella
Stella
Really
Lucy
Lucy
Yes really (totally agreeing to her point) Never
Stella
Stella
Okay, if you say so....
Lucy
Lucy
Yes yes yes!
Stella
Stella
(continues her work serenely)
(After few hours of serious work)
Cecilia
Cecilia
(slides her seat to Lucy, relieved) hey, I'm pretty sure what's on your mind right now, is either talking to Tyler or at least seeing him
Lucy
Lucy
(cheers up after a serious condition of over thinking) yes you're totally right, bestie
Cecilia
Cecilia
(gets up as they head out to see Tyler)
Lucy
Lucy
He usually stays in his office, I don't think I've seen him anywhere else
Cecilia
Cecilia
True true (suddenly they don't see him in his office except Tony and Ariana
Ariana
Ariana
(miserably) Good evening, how may I help you
Tony
Tony
Don't worry, Ariana, they're our co workers
Tony
Tony
(gladly) What brings you here
Cecilia
Cecilia
(sighs) How many sadist Co workers do we have
Ariana
Ariana
Excuse me?
Cecilia
Cecilia
(nervously) Oh nothing
Lucy
Lucy
Yes where is Tyler
Tony
Tony
He didn't come today
Lucy
Lucy
(Disappointed) Oh, but uhmm, would you happen to know why
Lucy
Lucy
Since you're his best friend
Tony
Tony
(sighs) Nope, he didn't contact me since yesterday, very strange and this isn't the first time
Lucy
Lucy
Wow
Tony
Tony
Yep I'm not against keeping some things to yourself but if there's a problem, shouldn't he just speak up about it
Tony
Tony
(a little annoyed at Tyler) He should have said something, his behavior is totally off
Tony
Tony
I believe he's going through somethings
Lucy
Lucy
(worriedly) Well we should visit him, you know where he lives right
Tony
Tony
Yeah but without any contact from him, we can't be sure that he's at home and even if he is, would he even care to open the door
Cecilia
Cecilia
(surprised with Lucy) What do you mean by would he even care to open the door
Tony
Tony
He has done that to I and my girlfriend, twice, he'd be like we came unexpected, he's not opening the door, happened recently
Tony
Tony
I honestly doubt that Tyler's okay
Lucy
Lucy
Wow (shocked) This is too serious than I thought
Lucy
Lucy
What could he be going through
Tony
Tony
(sighs) I don't know, he's totally unreadable
Lucy
Lucy
(sits down with anxieties) Did anyone hear anything from him, like overheard him in a phone or something
Ariana
Ariana
(sighs) I'm sure he's fine, leave someone's life alone, even if you're his best friend, dude, doesn't mean you should over step in his life
Ariana
Ariana
Some people are better left, alone
Ariana
Ariana
Stop sticking your hands in someone's business, especially you, weird set of ladies, grow up
Ariana
Ariana
This isn't high school (miserably continuing her work) Have to be done with this stupid work, that's taking me forever
Ariana
Ariana
(pissed off as she slams the laptop and leaves)
Lucy
Lucy
(astonished with Tony and Cecilia) Ow, seriously, so rude
Lucy
Lucy
I'm so worried about him
Tony
Tony
Me too, hope it's not a mental illness
Lucy
Lucy
It can't be
Tony
Tony
Let's be real, by the way he behaves, it obviously looks like it maybe a mental illness
Cecilia
Cecilia
Woah woah, don't tell me you actually mean....
Tony
Tony
Yes, depression or something
Cecilia
Cecilia
Our teammate in our office behaves like that too
Tony
Tony
Wait a minute (realizes something) Stella right, is her name
Lucy
Lucy
(readily) Yes yes, you know what happened now?
Tony
Tony
No, just a theory, I've overheard and even seen him hanging out with her
Cecilia
Cecilia
Uhmm, don't worry, Lucy, they can't be dating (feelingly looks at Lucy)
Lucy
Lucy
Don't worry, I'm not jealous, well I am, but I know he loves me, so he can't be dating her
Tony
Tony
(strangely looks at them) Hmm well is she still around
Cecilia
Cecilia
I think so (thoughtfully goes to check, and suddenly sees her passing by) She's leaving
Tony
Tony
Should we follow....
Lucy
Lucy
(gladly cuts in) Yes let's follow her
Tony
Tony
(amused) Okay then, let's follow her but it'll be a huge risk
Stella
Stella
(suddenly walks in, as they attempt to follow her)
Stella
Stella
(softly) Don't even think about it
Stella
Stella
(leaves)
Cecilia
Cecilia
(shocked) How does she keep doing that
Cecilia
Cecilia
It's like she has sharp hearing abilities
Lucy
Lucy
Whatever, I'll try to contact him and visit him, whether he likes it or not
Lucy
Lucy
(annoyed at Stella)
Tony
Tony
Calm down, let's wait till tomorrow or this Saturday and see, if he comes, we can ask, if he answers
Tony
Tony
More importantly if he doesn't come, we will proceed to looking for him
Lucy
Lucy
(sighs worriedly) Fine
Cecilia
Cecilia
Don't worry, Bestie everything will be okay
Lucy
Lucy
(lays her head down, miserably to sleep) Sure
Tony
Tony
hmm
(in a building, on the top of the roof, a skyscraper)
Stella
Stella
(finally reaches the top) finally you've overcome your phobia about heights right.....
Tyler
Tyler
Doesn't matter
Tyler
Tyler
I can see why you love sitting here (miserably talking with her)
Tyler
Tyler
The view
Stella
Stella
(sits beside him on the edge of the roof) Yeah, the view, that's one reason
Tyler
Tyler
What's the other reason....
Stella
Stella
It's a perfect way to die
Stella
Stella
Like falling down releasing yourself freely, letting everything go, letting all your feelings go, it sounds so crazy, most especially because I've never done it, but I can tell that its a great feeling
Tyler
Tyler
That's quite unique, a one time moment
Stella
Stella
One last moment
Tyler
Tyler
Yep...
Tyler
Tyler
(coldly) Already tired of the work
Stella
Stella
It's stress but it was quite interesting bothering my team mates
(Both calmly talking with no happy mood expressed at all)
Tyler
Tyler
Okay
Stella
Stella
If you knew how limited your life is, how would you spend your last days
Tyler
Tyler
Playing video games
Stella
Stella
Really, video games are truly nice, my escape from reality
Stella
Stella
But life hits harder when you realize that you can never escape reality
Tyler
Tyler
True....., no snacks today
Stella
Stella
Sorry, wasn't in the mood to interact with anyone, so I didn't even buy online
Tyler
Tyler
Dodging people is so hard, even if we stayed home all day, doing a mobile job, even in the job, we still end up interacting with people
Stella
Stella
Yep unfortunately, well anyway, tomorrow I'll buy pizza
Tyler
Tyler
Burgers....
Stella
Stella
Fine....
Stella
Stella
Tell me, what bothers you a lot
Tyler
Tyler
The pressure I feel every time, and mostly my past
Tyler
Tyler
I know that I'm meant to forget it, but you can't forget what made you who you are today
Stella
Stella
Same here, financial issues, parents, classmates and relationships messed my life up
Tyler
Tyler
The things I did for money and friends, and relationships
Tyler
Tyler
Makes me realize how dumb I was
Stella
Stella
let's listen to a song while we talk about life (hands over the left side of her air pods to him)
Tyler
Tyler
Okay (puts it on)
Stella
Stella
it's nice having someone to talk to, that truly understands exactly how I feel, it's a miracle even though our problems will never be solved
Stella
Stella
(starts selecting a song from her phone)
Stella
Stella
Not support
Tyler
Tyler
By the way the beat started. That's really deep
Stella
Stella
You may not understand their language but even without me telling you, you can tell what they're saying
Tyler
Tyler
Yep I can
Tyler
Tyler
What part of your family, don't you like
Stella
Stella
Literally everything, they're so hopeless when it comes to my dreams especially because of how stubborn I was at high school
Stella
Stella
it's like even my own family has given up on me, I don't even see them again
Tyler
Tyler
That's how my dad is
Tyler
Tyler
But my mom is different sometimes
Stella
Stella
So that's why you keep living
Tyler
Tyler
I wanna make some money to buy her some of her dream things, at least let her know that her son worked hard before he died
Stella
Stella
Okay, mine I'd say that I'm living most especially because I found you to talk too, you actually get me
Stella
Stella
And also because I just wanna do something a normal person would do for once, having a bucket list of things I'd wanna do before I die
Stella
Stella
Even though it's not normal about the dying part but it's okay
Tyler
Tyler
Yep it's totally okay, I don't see any other point living
Tyler
Tyler
Money controls almost everyone's emotions
Tyler
Tyler
And pride discriminates the less privilege
Stella
Stella
Facts
Stella
Stella
Painful facts
Tyler
Tyler
Yep
Stella
Stella
(rests her head on his shoulders) Life
Tyler
Tyler
Life....
They both stay there for some hours in their deep moods
