Alice Hall

"Hello, Rose!", called, Alice, as she calls her over the phone. "ALICE! You're right next door. How more lazy can you be?", exclaimed, Rose, as she answered the phone. "Are you trying to tell me, to be lazy??", asked, Alice, giggling. "Ha ha, if you become more lazy than this, I would looked old while I am still in my 20s. You know running errands for you ain't easy, girl!", Rose, said sighing. "Is that a compliment, I hear.. ", Alice, replied giggling. "Whatever sails your boat, girl, What do you need?", Rose, asked. "Hey! That's rude, can't I call you without needing something from you",asked, Alice, pretending to be sad. "ohh.. I am so sorry, Alice", Rose, replied back apologetically. "Oh.. Okay. Hey! I was thinking, as today, Larry, Is coming back. Why don't you go and fetch him at the airport for me?",asked, Rose. "That's what I was waiting.. My apology goes down the drain.. Sorry, girl, I have class today. Tell, Larry, I said, Hi", replied, Rose. "Oh, okay! Bye then", Alice, said with a sad tone, as she hung up the phone.

"Hi honey", called, Larry, as he ran towards ,Alice, who was waiting for him. "Welcome back, darling", exclaimed, Alice, as she hugged him. "So, how was the trip?", asked, Alice, as she helped him with his bags. "I will tell you all about it, once we reached my house", answered, Larry, as he wrapped his hands around her, and walked towards the car.

"You know, honey!", asked, Larry, as he got out from the shower. "What?", Alice, responded slouching on the couch. "How many of my movies have you watched?", asked, Larry, in a serious tone. "Aah.. Most?", replied, Alice, unsure as she looked at him. "Okay, then tell me the name of my movies", said, Larry, as he sat down next to her. "What's wrong with you? What's with the sudden question? You know, I don't really like to watch movies, they used to give me lots of emotions and I hate that!", exclaimed, Alice, as she sat up. "You never watched my movies, you never get jealous when I am with other women, you don't want to sleep with me. Do you even love me?", asked, Larry, as he stared into, Alice, blue eyes. "Just give me a bit more time okay.. I am not ready", answered, Alice, in a low voice. "We have been in a relationship for 1 year, how many more time do you need? 5/10 years??", yelled, Larry, as he stood up abruptly.

"Don't talk to me with that tone, Larry! I am still with you, aren't I? I am just not ready yet. Okay!", exclaimed, Alice, furiously as she walked out and banged the door. "I am sorry, Larry, but I don't love you and I can't do THAT with you", Alice,thought out loud as she drove her car back to her house.

"Oh, Alice, how come you are here? I thought you're gonna stay over at, Larry's place", exclaimed, Rose, in surprised as she opens the door. "Yeah, I thought so too but we had a fight.. Again", said, Alice, as she walked inside, Rose, house. "You didn't even love him, Alice. Aren't you tired having the same fight over and over again?", asked, Rose, as she handed a glass of water to her. "Not to mention, he just got back and you guys had a fight for the 10th times this month" ,Rose, continued talking as she sat next to, Alice, and patted her back.

"I am afraid, he will try to jumped off the bridge and commit suicide again. I can't let that happened, I have to give him what he wants. I am doing the right thing, right?",asked, Alice, in a low voice as she looked at, Rose, in hope that she will support him.
