"Okay, now you can ask me some questions about myself."
"Why don't you just tell me whatever you want to tell me?"
"Uhm, okay."

A soft giggle sounded from the other side of the phone.
"Okay then. I don't have any pets-"

"... Sorry."
"It's okay."
"It's not."
"It is, Rydel."
Another silence fell.
"You didn't pronounce my name right."
"Wait, how do you-"
"Ride-ell."

"Maybe later."
Rydel sighed.
"You're such a-"
"Sukkel?"
"A what?"
