"Kaden!"

"Hey Effie, you sound like you just run in a marathon."

"Yeah... Really? I actually run to my room to answer this call. I just got home. How many minutes have you waited before I answer your call?"

"Uh, three minutes? I just got home too actually."

"Phew, I thought you waited so long."

"Not really. So, how's your day?"

"It wasn't good. I got a detention because of this stupid boy in my class."

"Detention?"

"Yeah. Let's just not talk about it. Hey, have you heard that Taylor Swift and Tom Hiddleston broke up? Geez I used to ship them."

"Jesus, I'm sorry but I really don't care about their personal lives."

"Okay fine, I thought you like Taylor so-"

"Effie I don't like Taylor. Can we just talk about you? About us?"

"Um, u-us..?"

"I-I mean, you. How's your day?"

"Kaden you just asked that question a while ago."

"Oh. Sorry I was running out of things to say."

"Then why don't you just hang up and rest? You sound tired."

"I just wanna hear your voice."

"........."

"Effie? Are you still there?"

"Y-yeah, I'm here. You, um you just want to hear my voice? Are you having a crush on me?"

"What? No! I don't know... I guess I'm tired."

"You should rest, Kaden. Let's talk tomorrow."

"Okay. Fine. Good night Effie the monkey."

"Good night, maiden."
