incoming call
from brendon

"oh so now you want to
talk to me?"

"josephine, baby, i-"

"save it. i've been
calling you for a week
straight. and now you
decide to return my calls?!
i don't need a dumb excuse."

"jo, i'm busy!"

"too busy to talk to your
girlfriend for five seconds?!
i've been worried sick!!"

"i know, and i'm so, so
sorry. it's crazy busy here
and i've been trying to call you
but there just hasn't been time!"

"no time?! all i need is to
hear that you're okay! i don't
need a narrative every time you
call!!"

"i get that, and i'm so
sorry. can i make it up now?"



"josie?"

"brendon...i don't think
you can."

"but-then what does
that mean?!"

"maybe...we should take a
break."

"josephine, doll, no-"

"if you can't put aside five
seconds to talk to me, then i
can't be putting all of my time into
this relationship."

"well what about when you
cancelled our movie night
last second??"

"that's different. it was one
night and i made sure i called
and apologized. this is way too
late."

"but-i love you!"

"brendon, i'm sorry."

"baby, no-"

call ended
