"Hello?"
"Hi, Reese."
"How are you, Andrea?"
"I'm great, what about you?"
"I'm good..."
"I heard you moved to America. That's soo crazy."
"Yeah, I did."
"Hey, are you okay?"
"Yeah, why?"
"You sound depressed as fuck."
"Oh, uh..."
"How's...your girlfriend?"
"We're not together anymore."
"What? Why?"
"Because I moved and it just wasn't going to work and she's pretty pissed at me."
"Have you tried calling her ever since you left?"
"Yeah, I've tried soo many times."
"Why don't you text her?"
"She won't reply."
"But she'll read it."
"I don't know..."
"Do you love her?"
"Yes. I love her like crazy."
"So try contacting her then, Einstein."
"I have."
"Keep trying."
"Why are you being so nice to me when I was a total asshole to you?"
"Because everything happens for a reason and you're a great person, Reese. You've just had a hard time."
"Do you think I should have persuaded dad to stay?"
"I don't think it matters."
"But I ruined my relationship with Willow."
"And who said you can't fix it?"
"She hates me."
"She doesn't hate you, idiot."
"She does."
"Did you leave on a bad note?"
"Kinda, I mean we did k-"
"If you had a make out session then I don't want to know."
"Well..."
"My ears are burning."
"Anyway! What have you been up to?"
"The usual: college, food, sleep."
"All I've been doing is eating and sleeping...and binge watching Captain America."
"I can't believe you're still obsessed with that movie."
"I still have that Captain America action figure you got me last year."
"You're such a child."
"..."
"I've gotta go now but Reese...don't give up on her. Fight for her. She's worth it."
"Thanks Andrea."
"You're welcome."
