"Hey Nerissa, I'm leaving tomorrow and I just wanted to hear your voice one last time."
❝You should't say things like that.❞
"Why not? It's not like you'll suddenly take me back if I continue."
❝It's not like you wanted to get in my pants and use me...oh wait.❞
"Dammit I told you I was sorry for that. It's so much more now. You mean a lot to me."
❝I stopped believing in that the minute Oliver told me you're horrible motive, which was to get in my pants. I don't care if it became much more than that. The fact that you had that motive in the first place makes me upset.❞
"I really don't want to go into this, again. I just want to have a light hearted conversation with you before I move to New York. Is that okay with you?"
❝No. It's not okay with me. You hurt me and expect me to act as though we're friends or even lovers.❞
"Dammit what do you want from me?"
❝An apology.❞
"I told you so many times before that I am sorry."
❝No. A real apology.❞
"Honestly I don't even know why I am even bothering with this pointless conversation."
❝Then hang up.❞
"At least tell me there's a happy ending for us?"
❝I don't know the answer to that.❞
"I'm just going to hang up. This was pointless."
❝I agree.❞
"Goodbye, for now. We'll talk again eventually. Right?"
❝Maybe. Goodbye.❞
