"So, what did you so desperately needed to talk to me about?", Callum asked.
"I decided that I was going to get you to help me find a way to die", Aroa stated. Callum was not happy with this answer. Aroa was literally asking him to find a way to kill her, one of his friends.
"You know how inconsiderate that is?", Callum asked.
"Inconsiderate!? You're being unfair Callum!", Aroa yelled.
"How? Is it so wrong of me to not want to find a way to kill you?", Callum yelled.
"You don't understand.", Aroa said.
"Then enlighten me.", Callum stated annoyed.
"How am I supposed to do that? You would understand if you went through what I did!", Aroa yelled and stormed off. Callum just stood there not knowing if what he said was right or wrong, he just didn't want to be part of why Aroa died. Since they were yelling, people nearby heard their conversation which so happened to be Willow.
"Hey, Callum.", Willow spoke softly.
"Hi, Willow.", Callum replied.
"Sorry if I am being rude by overhearing your conversation.", Willow apologized.
"Oh... that was about a video game we play together a lot.", Callum wasn't really selling his argument that well.
"Don't worry, I already know about Aroa.", Willow reassured.
"What! How?", Callum asked.
"She told me.", Willow answered.
"Oh, can I ask you something?", Callum asked.
"Sure.", Willow answered.
"Was I being unfair?", Callum asked.
"I didn't hear that much of the conversation to be able to give my own personal opinion.", Willow answered. "Can you fill me in?", Willow asked. Callum ended up telling Willow everything even how he found to about Aroa.
"Personally, even if it wasn't something I fully agreed with, I would still help her.", Willow answered.
"Why?", Callum asked.
"Like she said, you didn't go through what she went through. I can only imagine the isolation and pain and she has lived out her life hundreds of times, ending in more pain. I can't really blame her for wanting it to finally end.", Willow answered.
"So, I was being unfair.", Callum stated.
"No, no you weren't. Like everyone else you have your own feelings on the matter and I understand why you wouldn't want to help her but this isn't about you, it's about Aroa and she has a meaningful reason behind why she is doing this.", Willow replied.
"I think I get it, but I don't like it.", Callum answered.
"I understand why you wouldn't, but will you still help her?", Willow asked.
"I will, this is about Aroa, not me and as a friend I should help.", Callum answered.
"I agree, that is why I will help as well.", Willow said.
"Your probably really smart, you should be great at this.", Callum said.
"To be honest, all it is, is just research, nothing impressive.", Willow admitted.
"Oh right, I should find Aroa and apologize.", Callum said and walked off to find Aroa. He spent a good 20 minutes look for her, but to his luck, he couldn't. This wasn't ending to turn out so good.
Aroa seemed to have hid away in the forest, since she knew not many people would find her here, to be honest, to be able to find her would be out of pure luck. Aroa was sitting thinking of a way to convince Callum or at least understand why he wouldn't help, he should have known how painful this is for Aroa. It was about 30 minutes of thinking before she thought of a plan to convince Callum to help her, and finally she went off to find Callum.
Hey, Yazmin!", Aroa yelled.
"Yeah?", Yazmin asked.
"Do you know where Callum is?", Aroa asked.
"Didn't we already run through this scenario?", Yazmin joked.
"Don't answer a question with a question.", Aroa stated laughing.
"I will do as I please, thank you very much.", Yazmin said acting high and mighty.
"Well, you don't know where he is so, imma just leave.", Aroa said while smirking.
"Hey, you can't leave!", Yazmin yelled.
"Why not?", Aroa asked.
"Cause we were in the middle of a conversation, so its quite rude to leave.", Yazmin explained. Aroa didn't say anything and just left Yazmin looking dumbfounded, one of Aroa's favorite things to do.
"Aroa, get back here, you caterpillar!", Yazmin yelled. Aroa went off to ask someone else, but to her luck she found him, looking quite stupid wondering around aimlessly, your one to talk Aroa.
"Hey, Callum!", Aroa yelled.
