Other Friend: What do you think?
Her: Ooo, Yes! That would look so good on you! You have to try it on.
Friend: Yes, you totally should!
Other Friend: Ok, I'll try this top on as well, I think.
*RING RING*
Her: Oh no. Please, no!
*RING RING*
Friend: Who is it?
Her: Its Him.
Other Friend: Is he calling again? Didn't you talk to him like when we were in the other store?
Friend: I though you two were on a break.
Her: Well I wanted to have one and he agreed. reluctantly... But he, Won't. Stop. Calling!
*RING RING*
Friend: If he's calling it's not a break.
Her: I know.
Other Friend: Don't answer it.
Her: He's just so, panicky! Just let me answer so he'll calm down and we can keep shopping... Hello?
Him: Hi. Where are you now?
Her: I'm in the "Dress Store" with Friend and Other Friend.
Him: I want to talk to you about that thing the other day.
Her: Do we really have to talk now?
Him: Well I can't stop thinking about it, and I can't help but feel that you were being selfish in asking for this break.
Her: Can we please talk about it when I get back to my room? I haven't spent any time with the girls outside of class in ages.
Him: *sigh* Okay.
Her: I'll talk to you soon. Bye.
Him: Bye *click*
Her: Alright where were we? Yeah, you might as well try the top as well.
Friend: It'll be so pretty!
*RING RING*
Her: REALLY?!?
*RING RING*
Other Friend: Is it Him again?
*RING RING*
Her: Yes
*RING RING*
Other Friend: You told him you'd talk later, didn't you?
*RING RI-*
Her: Yeah I did. Hopefully he'll let it go... *sigh* Oh good it stopped.
Friend: Hey that looks really good on you, Other Friend. Do a twirl?!
Other Friend: I reckon i'll wear this for the graduation banquet.
Her: Yay! It looks so good on you.
*RING RING*
Friend: Don't answer it!
*RING RING*
Her: Wait. Sorry girls, I'll just tell him to wait til I'm back. He just gets annoyed if it rings out... Hi Him,
Him: Why didn't you answer before?
Her: We're trying on clothes at the moment. I was a bit preoccupied.
Him: Well it's not nice, not to pick up and leave me hanging!
Her: I thought we agreed we would talk about it when I got back home?
Him: Yeah. We did. But it's impo-
Her: Well can't we do that? Please? I want to spend some time with the girls.
Him: *frustrated sigh* Fine, I guess they're more important than me then!
Her: I didn't say tha-
Him: *click*
Her: He hung up... Maybe he won't call again then...
Friend: Hmm. We'll see.
Her: Hey, I know where we can get a clutch to go with Other Friend's dress.
Other Friend: Really?
Her: Yeah I saw one in the "Bag Shop" on the bottom floor when I went in there the other day.
Other Friend: Let's take a look!
-After meandering down the escalator and getting lost once, maybe twice... It was twice-
Her: Here it is!
Friend: How do we still get lost in this place? We've lived here for like, three years! Haha!
Her: Eh, what does it matter when we have good company.
Other Friend: Haha! Yeah.
*RING RING*
Her: I thought I was going to finally get some peace...It's just here in the purple section
*RING RING*
Friend: I like how they arrange the stuff by colour
*RING RING*
Other Friend: Yeah me too
*RING RING*
Her: ... The girls are just looking at me and waiting... Hello?
Him: Why didn't you call back?
Her: You hung up.
Him: Yeah, so?! Didn't you care if I was ok.
Her: Look. You agreed that we would talk when I got home. I promise we will discuss it then. I only had an hour or two to spend with my girlfriends this week and I've spent the entire time talking to you on the phone. I love you. I will be home in 30 mins. That's not long at all. Okay?
Him: Okay fine! I'll talk to you soon... bye
Her: Bye.
*DEEEEEP SIGH* Oh my gosh! He just doesn't get "We'll talk later". Last Thursday, he was upset about something and because we couldn't come to an agreement he was happy with, he just kept at it. I didn't get to bed til after 2 am.Friend: Wait, 2 am?! You were on all early morning clinical placements that week.
Her: Yep... I was so tired I don't know how I didn't make some huge fatal mistake that day...
Other Friend: Oh sweetie, *Hug* You would have been so tired... *Heavy pause* ... Hey, the bus doesn't come for another 15 mins. Do you wanna stop at The Cafe on the way to the bus stop and we can get brownies?
Her: And a chocolate milkshake?
Friend: Yep sounds good!
Other Friend: Woo! Chocolate therapy for the win!
Her: Haha! Lets go.
A/N: They were such kind and understanding friends. She could not have been without them.
