Understanding You More
New job and ex classmate
Lucy
(Joyfully) Me and my stupid imagination
Lucy
I'm so excited I got a job today, finally I can earn more money
Lucy
(preparing her laptop as she starts a video call with her best friend)
Cecilia
(Joyfully accepts the video call) Hey bestie, our first day at work, grown upssssssss (melodically) We are now fully grownnnn upppsssss
Lucy
Yes bestie, I can't wait for us to meet new people or best part, look for more people's trouble
Cecilia
yes yes, I still can't believe you literally bought 3 cats, like why 3, seriously
Lucy
Hehe but they're so adorable (tries to show her one of her cats) Just look at this cute little thing
Cecilia
Awwwwn (deeply amazed) I'm totally coming to your house after work
Lucy
(bows like a Queen) You are highly welcome, your majesty
Cecilia
We gotta start going, meet you at our favorite park, from there we'll walk to work
Cecilia
Muah, see you soon bestie (ends the call and starts rushing)
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
(serenely) Do you think it'll be so much stress
Tyler
(reflectively) I don't know, animations can't be really that hard especially when there's no sci Fi stuffs involved right
Tony
(sighs) Well I really don't know or care too, just there for the cash
Tyler
Yep, obviously life's main goal is about making money, without a good amount of money, you can't really be satisfied
Tony
Yeah, spoken the facts about this strange life, All hopes lyes on God
Tony
(thoughtfully) When are you thinking of settling in for love
Tyler
(softly) I don't know, anytime I feel ready
Tony
You may meet someone anytime soon, you can fall in love anytime, even now
Tyler
I don't really believe in all that again
Tony
Ah what about your parents love, what do you call that
Tyler
(sighs) I believe in true love but I don't believe that I'll ever fall for one
Tony
(chuckles) It's always your kind that ends up falling for one after saying that
Tyler
Oh pls, this ain't a ROM com movie
Tony
Sure, sure, we shall see
Lucy
Ceciliaaaaaaaa (running towards them and passes them to hug Cecilia)
Cecilia
(gladly hugs her) Bestieeee
Tyler
(uncaringly forces his way through them in a calm annoying manner)
Lucy
(shocked with Cecilia) Hey watch it
Tony
(caringly) Don't you think you took it too far
Tyler
Nope (sighs) we don't even know them, no big deal
Cecilia
(tries to get his attention to turn back by grabbing his right shoulder) Hey, what's the matter
Tyler
(ignores her and keeps walking away with Tony)
Cecilia
(reflectively) Don't mind them, God will judge him, his friend seemed nicer
Lucy
Yeah some people can be so rude, it makes me sick (starts to run to work)
Cecilia
Wait up (trying to keep up with her)
Lucy
(intentionally bumps into him as she runs)
Tony
Hehehe a perfect payback
Tyler
You were talking about love, don't bother me about love just because you think you've found the one
Tony
(confidentially) I'm certain, I found the one, almost a year
Tyler
I know a couple that has been married for 12 years, yet they still got divorced
Tony
(surprised a little) hmm
Tyler
So don't get your hopes up for such
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
(sighs) I guess you're right then, there is enough proof, change topic, I wish you luck in your relationship life
Tony
Our wedding is this year
Tyler
Oh nice, don't invite me
Tony
Are you kidding me (amused) You're totally invited, you're my best friend, you're the best man
Tyler
Please don't, anyone could do that, I don't wanna be involved in any public events of celebrations
Tony
(chuckles) Already involved bro, then how would you marry
Tyler
Even if I marry, it'll be very low key, straight to the point
Tony
Hehehe I don't think your future wife would want that
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
(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
Sure (uncaringly heads to the elevator)
Lucy
(quickly jumps in with Cecilia)
Cecilia
(relieved) we made it (checking the time on her phone)
Lucy
(excited) yessssss grown uppssssss
Tony
(amused, holding his laugh)
Lucy
(slowly turns to greet them) Hey, good morning gentlemen
Lucy
Wait a minute (recognizes Tyler's face) You're the guy that hit me on purpose, impatient
Tyler
Hmm (remains speechless)
Lucy
You still won't apologize huh, so what are you doing here
Tony
Hehehe sorry guys, my friend can be so quiet
Cecilia
Why do you have to speak for him
Tony
Hehe no matter how angry you may seem, he won't answer you
Lucy
So rude, even after the trouble you caused, you still don't wanna talk to me
Tyler
(uncaringly not looking at them, tries to leave as the elevator stops)
Lucy
(stops him by standing in his way with a serious annoyed face) Hmm apologize
Tyler
(coldly looks down at her)
Cecilia
(a little scared at his reaction) Uhmm Lucy, let's just go
Tony
Uhmm let's just forget about this, come on
Lucy
No way, until he says something
Tyler
(walks through her by force)
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
(still jumps right in front of him, right in his way) hmmm (seriously staring at him closely)
Tyler
(sighs) Sorry, now leave me alone
Lucy
(hesitates as she maintains eye contacts and starts to feel extremely nervous) Woowww (turns her back on him in great shyness)
Tyler
Hmm (uncaringly leaves with Tony)
Cecilia
(Shocked) What happened
Cecilia
(amused) Lol be serious, stop the jokes, he apologized right, that's settled
Lucy
(seriously faces her with great amazement) Bestie I'm serious, I saw it in his eyes, like I felt it, like love
Cecilia
You sure you're okay?
Cecilia
Are the cats too much stress?
Lucy
Bestie I'm serious, I don't know how to explain it, but I can feel it, like I know him somewhere
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
Oh bestie hehehe (nervously starts thinking of her past)
Lucy
Where do I know this guy (carefully recalling)
Cecilia
(starts to drag her to their office)
Lucy
Seriously, I'm still trying to think here
Cecilia
(sits down on her desk while she sits on her seat) Focus, we got serious background scenes to do today
Lucy
Fine fine, hmm Tyler Tyler Tyler.... Yesss, his name is Tyler, I use to have a crush on him, yes yes
Cecilia
Oh wow, when exactly (suddenly curious)
Lucy
(A little surprised but still excited) Wow time flies so fast, I remember him quite well, he was so bad
Cecilia
(amazed) Woah, bad in what way
Cecilia
(cheerfully ready to hear the full story) Omg, tell me more (sits properly as she brings out some snacks from her bag)
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
(chuckles) Boys can be so weird
Lucy
I know right, but now he seems so different from before
Lucy
Is there anything I'm forgetting
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
True, he may truly not like been known about that, but I think there's a lot more to it
Cecilia
Let's just focus on our project for now, after work today, we can try and talk to him
Cecilia
I think we even have someone else here too, considering the third desk here
Stella
(walks in very quietly and sits down, immediately focusing on her project)
Lucy
(totally shocked with Cecilia) uhmm hi
Stella
(ignores them completely)
Cecilia
(whispering, totally disappointed) That's so rude
Lucy
Tell me about it, she didn't even look at us
Cecilia
Let's just do the project quick and get to talk to Tyler
several hours later of animation projects
Lucy
Finally, let's go, quick please, I hope he hasn't left
Cecilia
(quickly follows her as she starts rushing, checking around)
Cecilia
(notices him as they pass an office) There
Lucy
(walks right in) Hey, Good morning everyone
Lucy
(nervously walks towards Tyler's desk)
Cecilia
(whispers) Evening
Lucy
*Oh actually, how could I be so dumb*
Tyler
(sighs and gloomily) what....
Tony
Hey guys, to what do we owe this favour
Tyler
*This isn't a damn favour*
Lucy
Well he was my classmate
Cecilia
Yes yes, she was his cru...
Lucy
(quickly cuts in after covering her mouth) I was a great friend of his
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
That's right (realizes more memories) We did have a rough relationship history
Cecilia
Wait what, you've dated him....
Lucy
(completely speechless as she looks at him) Wow
Tony
Uhmm (disappointed by his reaction)
Tyler
(gets up calmly with his laptop and leaves)
Lucy
Uhmmm (totally lost on what to do, feeling a little sad)
Cecilia
Are you sure you're okay with this, if he's your ex, you don't have to even talk to him
Lucy
(sighs as they leave) He's not my ex
Cecilia
Huh, but he said rough relationship history
Lucy
Because it nearly ended up like that, we weren't dating but we did do some things like we liked each other
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
Ah then he did like you
Lucy
That's what I'm saying
Cecilia
(lost in thoughts) Uhmm seriously
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
Even if he doesn't like you back, hehehe (not certain)
Lucy
I honestly believe that he does like me, infact right now even after the way he coldly said out his past uncaringly
Lucy
I still know he loves me
Cecilia
Hehehe come on Bestie, don't jump into that conclusion
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
(still uncertain but ready to help her bestie happily) Okay then, what's the plan bestie
Lucy
We will talk about it, tomorrow we must get him to talk with me in private
Cecilia
Okay bestie (hugs her as they part ways home) Can't wait
Straight to the point
Lucy
Huh (gets up weakly, seeing Cecilia dressing up)
Cecilia
(Throws her work clothes at her in a haste) We're late
Lucy
(starts running to work with her)
Cecilia
I can't believe we slept throughout, the work was so stressful, we didn't even have time to talk about Tyler
Cecilia
(running way faster than 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
(slows down to drag Lucy) Come on, bestie
(few minutes later in their office)
Lucy
(tiredly sits down as she continues her sleep on her desk)
Cecilia
(tries to wake her up but also falls asleep on her desk)
Stella
Seriously.... (Continues listening to music while she focuses on her project)
Stella
(Later gets some water and wakes them up by pouring it on them)
Lucy
(astonished with Cecilia as they get up fast) Whyyyyy
Cecilia
Seriously, you couldn't find a more appropriate way
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
(agreely) Fine, sorry, we had a pretty rough day yesterday
Cecilia
Yeah the work was pretty much than we thought
Stella
(totally ignoring them as she continues her work)
Cecilia
Are you thinking of what I'm thinking
Lucy
(gladly) Yes we're gonna look for her trouble (whispering deeply to her)
Cecilia
Yes yes, let's get back at her with some water
Cecilia
(tries to observe her)
Stella
(softly) Don't even think about it....., there's a lot more where that came from
Cecilia
*Ahhh she already suspects us*
Lucy
What a boring Co worker, so annoying (sighs)
Cecilia
Let's just get to work and meet Tyler
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
Fine fine, I will talk to him today
(after hours of hardcore work)
Lucy
Seriously don't we need more people in our team
Cecilia
I guess our work is hard but not as hard as other teams
Stella
(gets up, readily leaving to dodge the rain)
Lucy
Uhmm it is quite cloudy
Cecilia
Let's check for Tyler
Cecilia
(quickly checks his office with Lucy, noticing him still there alone)
Cecilia
This is your chance
Lucy
(suddenly becomes shy) Uhmm let's just do it tomorrow
Cecilia
Come on, bestie, he's all alone
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
Goodluck (cheerfully leaves)
Lucy
Oh no, Bestieeeeee (becomes speechless as he takes a glance at her and continues his work) Uhmmm soo
It starts to rain heavily
Lucy
(sits down next to him) How's it going
Lucy
Uhmmm what, you're not gonna say anything
Tyler
(still leaves her hanging)
Lucy
Uhmmmm (quickly carries his laptop)
Tyler
Hand it over, I need to finish that in time, and head home
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
*That's her way of talking to someone, with threats* Fine, once I'm done, a little talk
Lucy
Nice choice (hands it back to him)
Lucy
Wait a minute, did you intentionally dodge the number part because you don't want me calling you
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
If it's about our past, I'm sorry or whatever, the past is the past, leave me alone now
Tyler
I just want to live my life in peace, is that too much to ask
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
Which is, I wanna hangout with you this Saturday or anytime you're free
Tyler
(sighs) I'm always busy (continues his graphics editing)
Lucy
(holds his hands, stopping him from typing, strictly) no one is always too busy
Tyler
Well I am (uncaringly releases his hands from hers) Go home, take my number, (hands his phone over to her)
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
Uhmm (excited) Thanks so much hehe, you better reply me and answer my calls
Tyler
Sure... *keep dreaming*
Lucy
(Drops his phone backs after confirming his number with messages and calls)
Lucy
So anyway, about our past, I should be sorry
Tyler
(calmly cuts in) I told you, the past is the past
Lucy
I just wanna be clear on some things, so listen
Tyler
Hmmm *God, why won't this lady leave me alone*
Lucy
Uhmmm I'll tell you when we hang out, Saturday you must be free right
Tyler
No, I'm hanging out with friends
Lucy
(gladly) oh thanks for inviting me
Lucy
What time should I come
Tyler
Ahhh, seriously, I'm not sure they'd be okay with you coming along
Lucy
Oh I'm pretty sure they will, (gladly staring at him) Hmmm I can't wait, so what should we talk about
Tyler
Hmmmm (remains speechless)
Cecilia
(walks in with a lot of snacks)
Lucy
Bestie, hey Tyler, meet my bestie
Cecilia
(winks at him, teasingly)
Lucy
Saturday he invited us to a friend's hangout
Cecilia
(extremely excited) Wow really
Tyler
*what the heck* Hmmm (so disappointed at himself)
Tyler
*Why did I hesitate to bring up a reasonable excuse to her, that's so not me*
Lucy
(starts eating the snacks with her bestie) Hey Tyler, you want some
Tyler
(shutsdown his laptop and gets up, ready to leave)
Lucy
(really concerned) You're going under this heavy rain
Tyler
Don't tell me what to do (starts leaving)
Lucy
(stops him immediately by grabbing his hand) I'm not gonna let you go anywhere
Tyler
(sighs) I have a car, leave me alone
Lucy
The parking lot, is still too far from here, you'd still be at risk in catching a cold
Cecilia
(happily watching them as entertainment) *Love in real life is so romantic*
Tyler
(forcefully frees his hands off hers) Okay then, I'll stay
Tyler
*Stop bothering my life*
Tyler
(sits down, a little annoyed) Hmmm
Lucy
(sits near him again) So what would you be doing at home after this
Tyler
(pretends to fall asleep)
Lucy
Answer me (tries to tickle him)
Tyler
(no reaction to that) Leave me alone, I'm staying because I don't wanna catch a cold, not because of you
Lucy
Wait a minute, that didn't make you laugh at all
Tyler
I'm going to another office because I prefer to be alone, so leave me alone
Tyler
(heads to another office, noticing sudden messages)
(in social media, messenger)
Lucy
Hope that office isn't too cold♥️😊
Tyler
Damn her (tries to sleep)
Cecilia
Are you sure that you're not like you know, disturbing him
Cecilia
(totally concerned)
Lucy
Yes yes (sadly starts to think)
Cecilia
Honestly he seemed disturbed by you, he doesn't behave like someone that even likes you, talkless of love
Lucy
No, no, even with the behavior, I'm sure he loves me (tries to sleep too)
Cecilia
Wow uhmm (still not certain about her thoughts on him) Okay I trust you, bestie
Lucy
Hehe me too, bestie, I'll bother him with calls once we get home
Cecilia
We'll have a sleep over this night too right
Lucy
Yes of course (gladly accepts)
Lucy
Maybe we should start taking coffee
Cecilia
(thoughtfully like a child while she eats her pop corn) Yes maybe
Cecilia
(chuckles, cheerfully) Grownnnn uppsssss
Tyler
(still over hearing them from the other office)
Tyler's Depression
Stella
(Strictly dragging Cecilia and Lucy to the office from their ears)
Lucy
Ow ow ow ow, that hurts so much, come on
Cecilia
Give us a break please (pleading) We're sorry
Stella
You guys weren't even ready to come to work today, right
Lucy
No hehehe of course not (chuckles with an unsure mood) Trust us
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
What are you, pervs (sighs) pushes them right into the office
Stella
Anyways get to work
Cecilia
(Trying to feel her ear) Ouch wow, what a stressful Co worker
Lucy
(thoughtfully) Maybe we would have been fired today, if not for her
Cecilia
Give me a break, they can't seriously fire 2 of their most skilled animators
Lucy
Uhmmm we aren't the only ones, lol
Lucy
Wait a minute (goes to Stella's desk) Don't tell Tyler about his pic (seriously pleading with her)
Stella
Do I look like I care
Lucy
Wait a minute, how do you know that it's Tyler
Stella
(sighs) friends.... Now get to work, weirdos
Cecilia
(hisses) I'm so hungry
Stella
(softly) No one leaves until first 7 projects are completed
Cecilia
(tries to convince her with a pleading face, trying to win her sympathy) Come on, just give me something
Stella
(sighs) Fine (draws out two of her potato chips and throws them at Cecilia)
Cecilia
(happily catches them) thanks so much
Lucy
(excited) looks so yummy, I love these flavours
Cecilia
(already eating them up)
Lucy
So uhmm, Stella, what do you know about Tyler
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
If you like him, tell him, ask him out, get over it, nervousness or crap ain't gonna take you anywhere
Stella
(coldly working on her project, barely caring)
Lucy
Uhmmm (feels a little disappointed at her cold behavior) You actually behave nearly like him
Lucy
I can see why you're his friend (sadly gets up and heads to her desk, continuing the project)
Cecilia
Don't worry, bestie, I trust you, if you're sure he loves you, then I'm positive that he does
Lucy
Thanks bestie (cheers up a little)
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
True love feelings can't fade away (totally sure)
Lucy
Yes really (totally agreeing to her point) Never
Stella
Okay, if you say so....
Stella
(continues her work serenely)
(After few hours of serious work)
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
(cheers up after a serious condition of over thinking) yes you're totally right, bestie
Cecilia
(gets up as they head out to see Tyler)
Lucy
He usually stays in his office, I don't think I've seen him anywhere else
Cecilia
True true (suddenly they don't see him in his office except Tony and Ariana
Ariana
(miserably) Good evening, how may I help you
Tony
Don't worry, Ariana, they're our co workers
Tony
(gladly) What brings you here
Cecilia
(sighs) How many sadist Co workers do we have
Cecilia
(nervously) Oh nothing
Lucy
(Disappointed) Oh, but uhmm, would you happen to know why
Lucy
Since you're his best friend
Tony
(sighs) Nope, he didn't contact me since yesterday, very strange and this isn't the first time
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
(a little annoyed at Tyler) He should have said something, his behavior is totally off
Tony
I believe he's going through somethings
Lucy
(worriedly) Well we should visit him, you know where he lives right
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
(surprised with Lucy) What do you mean by would he even care to open the door
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
I honestly doubt that Tyler's okay
Lucy
Wow (shocked) This is too serious than I thought
Lucy
What could he be going through
Tony
(sighs) I don't know, he's totally unreadable
Lucy
(sits down with anxieties) Did anyone hear anything from him, like overheard him in a phone or something
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
Some people are better left, alone
Ariana
Stop sticking your hands in someone's business, especially you, weird set of ladies, grow up
Ariana
This isn't high school (miserably continuing her work) Have to be done with this stupid work, that's taking me forever
Ariana
(pissed off as she slams the laptop and leaves)
Lucy
(astonished with Tony and Cecilia) Ow, seriously, so rude
Lucy
I'm so worried about him
Tony
Me too, hope it's not a mental illness
Tony
Let's be real, by the way he behaves, it obviously looks like it maybe a mental illness
Cecilia
Woah woah, don't tell me you actually mean....
Tony
Yes, depression or something
Cecilia
Our teammate in our office behaves like that too
Tony
Wait a minute (realizes something) Stella right, is her name
Lucy
(readily) Yes yes, you know what happened now?
Tony
No, just a theory, I've overheard and even seen him hanging out with her
Cecilia
Uhmm, don't worry, Lucy, they can't be dating (feelingly looks at 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
(strangely looks at them) Hmm well is she still around
Cecilia
I think so (thoughtfully goes to check, and suddenly sees her passing by) She's leaving
Lucy
(gladly cuts in) Yes let's follow her
Tony
(amused) Okay then, let's follow her but it'll be a huge risk
Stella
(suddenly walks in, as they attempt to follow her)
Stella
(softly) Don't even think about it
Cecilia
(shocked) How does she keep doing that
Cecilia
It's like she has sharp hearing abilities
Lucy
Whatever, I'll try to contact him and visit him, whether he likes it or not
Tony
Calm down, let's wait till tomorrow or this Saturday and see, if he comes, we can ask, if he answers
Tony
More importantly if he doesn't come, we will proceed to looking for him
Lucy
(sighs worriedly) Fine
Cecilia
Don't worry, Bestie everything will be okay
Lucy
(lays her head down, miserably to sleep) Sure
(in a building, on the top of the roof, a skyscraper)
Stella
(finally reaches the top) finally you've overcome your phobia about heights right.....
Tyler
I can see why you love sitting here (miserably talking with her)
Stella
(sits beside him on the edge of the roof) Yeah, the view, that's one reason
Tyler
What's the other reason....
Stella
It's a perfect way to die
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
That's quite unique, a one time moment
Tyler
(coldly) Already tired of the work
Stella
It's stress but it was quite interesting bothering my team mates
(Both calmly talking with no happy mood expressed at all)
Stella
If you knew how limited your life is, how would you spend your last days
Stella
Really, video games are truly nice, my escape from reality
Stella
But life hits harder when you realize that you can never escape reality
Tyler
True....., no snacks today
Stella
Sorry, wasn't in the mood to interact with anyone, so I didn't even buy online
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
Yep unfortunately, well anyway, tomorrow I'll buy pizza
Stella
Tell me, what bothers you a lot
Tyler
The pressure I feel every time, and mostly my past
Tyler
I know that I'm meant to forget it, but you can't forget what made you who you are today
Stella
Same here, financial issues, parents, classmates and relationships messed my life up
Tyler
The things I did for money and friends, and relationships
Tyler
Makes me realize how dumb I was
Stella
let's listen to a song while we talk about life (hands over the left side of her air pods to him)
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
(starts selecting a song from her phone)
Tyler
By the way the beat started. That's really deep
Stella
You may not understand their language but even without me telling you, you can tell what they're saying
Tyler
What part of your family, don't you like
Stella
Literally everything, they're so hopeless when it comes to my dreams especially because of how stubborn I was at high school
Stella
it's like even my own family has given up on me, I don't even see them again
Tyler
That's how my dad is
Tyler
But my mom is different sometimes
Stella
So that's why you keep living
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
Okay, mine I'd say that I'm living most especially because I found you to talk too, you actually get me
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
Even though it's not normal about the dying part but it's okay
Tyler
Yep it's totally okay, I don't see any other point living
Tyler
Money controls almost everyone's emotions
Tyler
