She was stuck at a crossroads, knowing what was the right thing to do and knowing what she wanted to do.

'you busy?' ... no reply.
So she starts to cry, stuck between a rock and a hard place.

'no, why?'
She exhales, very shaky, as she responds...
'I'm scared. please don't leave me alone right now...'
