"There used to be ten of us. Now, Liam and I are the only ones left...."

"Stop being dramatic Kim, we just left the room. We're not dead!"

"Well, sorry Josh but who takes this long to buy snacks from a convenience store that was only A BLOCK AWAY. It's been fifteen minutes Josh. FIFTEEN MINUTES."

"THERE'S A BLOODY JAM. WE'RE HAVEN'T EVEN MANAGE TO LEAVE THE HOUSE YET!"

"NO NEED TO YELL. LIAM IS SLEEPING. Plus you're on speaker right now"

"Why am I on speaker right now you- what?"

"Give me the phone. Hey, Tia here, I'm just going to go walk there. If anyone has objections, keep quiet. You'll thank me in 5 minutes."

"WAIT! But it's my turn to decide the snacks."

"Well, then, how bout you walk to the convenience store. Did you even bring money?"

"Uh...."

"Just follow him Tia. I'm starving over here."

"Roger that, Kim."

"Great, now if you need me, I'll be here trying to do the impossible."

"Not be dramatic?"

"No Josh the betrayer, I'm going to try to wake Liam up before you guys get back."

"Good luck, but if you succeed yet you didn't manage to calm an awoken Liam, what kind of flowers do you want on your grave?"

"Daffodils. And wish me luck. Bye."

"Goodbye."

"See ya in five."
