*Incoming Call Em*

"Hi, I am just moving- Rayne, stop, move-"

"August?"

"Don't laugh Emersyn, how old are you Rayne? Yeah, shit, fuck off.... Hi."

"Hi?"

"Sorry."

"What was that?"

"My phone was easily readable when you called. Rayne reached for it, then tried to take it out my hand when I answered."

"And you fought him for it?"

"You bet."

"Where are you two?"

"We were in the front room; I am now in mine."

"Well that was a dramatic greeting."

"Yeah I'm almost out of fucking breath."

"I... anyway hi."

"We've said this Em."

"I have nothing I... I don't know why I called and you're waiting for me to say why I called but it's literally just hi."

"Okay, hey. How are you?"

"You're not gonna... like question me on that?"

"Nope."

"Why?"

"Don't sound so...stressed."

"But it's weird, isn't it. That I just called to say hi."

"Not really."

"It's not?"

"Do you call other people to say hi?"

"I guess so."

"Then we are all good."

"Actually no."

"No?"

"We are not all good."

"Okay, Em, what's going on?"

"I don't know, your causality is stressing me out."

"How was your call?"

"Bad."

"Is that maybe why you're stressed?"

"...yeah."

"And maybe why you called?"

"Maybe...."

"Okay, so hi."

"Hi."

"We were watching Grey's Anatomy, apparently, it's Sawyer's favourite show. We're on season two episode seventeen and I think a bomb is about to go off."

"Shit, I think I remember that episode."

"Does it go off?"

"I am not going to tell you August."

"No? Why not? I don't care about the show."

"Well it's the suspense. You need to watch it."

"Well how can I watch it if I am in here on the phone to you?"

"Affectively ending the call in three, two..."

"Emersyn, I'm joking."

"Well I don't know that do I?"

"I feel like you definitely should know that."

"It's being back in this house and it's not taking my medication and-"

"You're still not taking your medication?"

"It's rude to interrupt."

"Emersyn."

"Oh stop saying my name like that, all disapprovingly."

"Emersyn..."

"I am taking my meds okay; they just take a week to kick back in. But so I am all like energy and no control over my thoughts which is so problematic because I think about things I don't want to and then we sit down to eat and it's out of my control still and I think I could control it by just not eating and yeah, I am stressed."

"You sound stressed."

"I am so sorry."

"Woah what?"

"Sorry, it's the book, it's fucked up my brain, I shouldn't have shared all that with you."

"Emersyn, it's fine."

"No it's not. I offloaded. I- we don't do that anymore."

"Em..."

"No, look, sorry, I am going to call Zoe, probably rant about this conversation, I'll um text you or something. Sorry.-"

"Zoe?"

"Yeah my friend, actually Henry's friend you remember?"

"Yeah."

"Yeah, she- ha- we got close. She broke up with Henry, poor angel, um, shit August I am going to hang up now."

"Emersyn..."

"Yeah?"

"You don't need to hang up. You don't need to call someone else. You can offload. You can rant about this. I do not mind; we'll figure it out. Shit if you're going to call someone else and talk about me, you might as well talk to me about it."

"There's nothing to figure out. I am just having a shit night. And that's not yours or anyone's problem."

"I don't see it as a problem, you shouldn't either."

"August, sorry. I know I am messy. I, I have to go, but I'll text you later. Probably apologise and all."

"Em-"

*Call ended.*

"Well shit ok."
