hi, this is noa
alice. i have been having trouble sleeping these days
"why?"
because when i lie down on my bed, the world keeps on spinning on and on. and on. and trust me, i am not high.
"i trust you"
well i wouldn't recommend that. but just for tonight, trust me. because your trust might make me do something right for a change. alice, have i told you about my girlfriend?
"no, you haven't"
well i have a girlfriend. or rather, i think i do. we have been going out for almost six months already, but i'm still not sure that she likes me. because people talk about us. and not in a good way. which really confuses me because just last month, everyone was so preoccupied trying to convince us that we were the 'cutest couple'. but now, people are looking at us in a rude way. i don't like them looking.
"what happened?'
oh, you sound concerned. don't be. i don't think that it's anything...big, not yet. no, i don't think so. it's just that things are getting uncomfortable. and my girlfriend doesn't like it either. it's more to them having a problem than us... did you know that i was sick very often?
"no. are you sick right now?"
as a matter of fact, yes. yes i am. i am down with a cold. i skipped school today because it got worse. you see that my voice is slightly strange? and that's reason i couln't go to school. like how i couldn't for most of the year. i think this is why my girlfriend is very upset. i don't get to see her very often.
"that's not fair. it's not your fault"
life generally isn't very fair, alice.
"...did you fight with her again?"
yes... and i should be calling her and saying sorry. sorry for something i can't really control. but i guess i should say sorry nonetheless if that makes her feel better. don't get the wrong idea about her though. she's nice. she's just too nice. crap, sorry alice. i think she's calling right now.
"okay, goodnight then"
hey, about charlie. say hi to him for me.
"okay, i'll say that"
and alice?
"yeah?"
thanks for listening.
