Zoe: Zach. I need to tell you something. It's about me and my story.
Zach: What is it? Whats wrong?
Zoe: I've lied. I live in a care home. My social worker introduced us. It started when I was born...My parents were always fighting and when I was 5 they dumped me at an orphanage, pretending they found me wandering the streets. I grew up in there until a month ago. I got 'adopted' and they spent all day at work and wanted someone to spend the money on. When I hit high school the bullies came. I turned into this. For 5 years I have been existing. I made them take me back and I relapsed. Then the day I started to speak to you, I turned around and I'm getting better. I see a point in getting better. I see tommorow, months, years. All thanks to you, Zach.
Zach: I don't care. I don't care what your history is I'm just grateful your alive otherwise I wouldn't have a best friend or someone I can confide in. I don't care you relapsed Zoe, I'm just happy, I'm happy you are here now, able to text me. I'm just trying to say I don't care if you lied. I just really like you.
Zoe: Thanks. I think. I really like you too. I will send u a pic of me.
Zach: U don't look ill at all there's colour in ur cheeks and you look happy and nervous. I like it, put 3 stone on and I would call you beautiful, but for now it's just pretty.
Zoe: I'm gonna get that 3 stone if thats the last thing I do. I don't think I'm pretty.
Zach: You have to see ur self everyday.
Zoe: Good point lol.
Zach: Study time!
4 hours later...
Zoe: Done! I'm gonna ace my biology exam. It comes tomorrow! They have just told me. I live at my social workers she wanted me to stay. I like her and she likes me. We are comfortable with each other and she has filed the paperwork to adopt me!
Zach: See you do have a happy ending after all! I'm really happy for you. Well done!
Zoe: Thanks and shouldn't you be in bed? It's 11pm for u. Its 6pm for me. Get to bed!
Zach: Night!
