Between the Lines✔ [COMPLETED]

[15] The Week of Re-Evaluation

Malory

Two days have passed and Olivia still isn't talking to me. I may sound selfish for saying this but I'm seriously wondering why she hasn't forgiven me yet. 

It's late; it's Wednesday night and it's half nine. I'm sitting at my desk trying to finish a shit load of work for tomorrow.

My message tone rings. I find myself being grateful that someone could distract me from all this work for even a few minutes.

It's Kyle.

Kyle: Is Ron actually a menopausal housewife with bipolar issues? He hasn't replied to me in three days, he hasn't answered my calls... he hasn't even nodded in my direction.

You complain so much.
Anyway I really shouldn't be one to talk.

Malory: Well maybe you should take into consideration that that's exactly how he feels about you on a daily basis

Malory: and to stretch my point, he's had to feel that way for the past four years

Malory: or however long you guys have been friends, anyway

Kyle: That's ridiculous! I know I don't say a lot and I've managed to keep quiet about shit from the beginning but

Malory: ...

Malory: ?

Malory: But?

Kyle: I don't know I went blank

Malory: -_-

Kyle: I don't exactly have an excuse for being an ass, Lloyd.

Kyle: A reasonable one to tell Roomie, anyway

Malory: Why do you call him that?

Kyle: well isn't it obvious?

Malory: YEA. TOTALLY!

Kyle: -_-

Kyle: we were roommates at a summer camp that we both went to before our first year at school. That's how we met. The summer camp was on reserved lands where there was a main house and then log cabins... hot and mosquito infested cabins.

How dauntless.

Malory: you shared a bunk?

Kyle: we shared a bunk.

Malory: aaahhh. Okay.

Kyle: Anyway, back to the point. I feel like I'm dying

Malory: get over it, kim k, Olivia is ignoring my existence too

Kyle: Yea but I've had to put up with you for the past three days by myself. Do you know how calming it is? Knowing that I have a Ron beside me so I don't pummel you into the ground?

Malory: you're such a feculent superficial blight upon society.

Malory: I thought we were FRIENDS.

Kyle; yea but you're so annoying

Malory: thanks.

Kyle: How much more time does he neeeeeed?

Malory: Kyle Austin Isaac Davidson. I am doing homework and I have THREE essays to finish writing for the morning. I hope you understand that you're not the hopeless case in this situation.
