ellingtonratliff: fuck.

rydelr5: what's wrong?

ellingtonratliff: nothing, I'm just having an existential crisis.

rydelr5: aw. anything I can do to help?

ellingtonratliff: call me? I wanna hear your voice.

Rydel Lynch is calling you.

"You okay?"

"No."

"How are your parents?"

"They're okay..."

"I can hear in your voice that they're not."

"My dad moved out already. He's staying in a hotel until he can move to the U.S.A."

"Wow."

"Yeah."

"You're going to be fine, I'm sure."

"Let's hope so..."

"You've been acting different than from when we first met, Ell. I'm worried."

"You too?"

"What?"

"My mum said the same. She thinks I'm depressed."

"Perhaps she's right."

"There's a difference between depressed and just sad."

"There's also a difference between stubborn and unhealthy."

"I'm not depressed."

"If you say so."

"I have a good friend who keeps me on the bright side of life. I'll be fine."

"And who is that friend?"

"You."
