She's called him every morning at two am, waiting for him to pick up and tell her a bedtime story.
Tears stained her face and more fell when the words,
"We are sorry. You have reached a number that has been disconnected or is no longer in service. If you feel you have reached this recording in error, please check the number and try your call again."
And she called again and again and again, till finally she accepted that they stopped paying his phone bill.
She fell asleep dreaming of a different life with her best friend still here, and them living happily ever after.
