Owen || Cassidy
Are you ignoring me?
Owen?
Come on Owen. Why are you ignoring me?
It's been a few days since I last heard from you.
Okay. That is a lie and you know it. It actually has been almost three weeks.
Why are you ignoring me?
I don't really want to do this again.
I feel like we are going in circles, one minute we are talking and enjoying each other then the next we ignore each other.
This is really annoying, I don't feel like doing this anymore.
Just to let you know, I started my job. Sure I start out as an unpaid intern, but I already love it.
So since I started working, I might not have a lot of time to talk to you.
There is another thing I should let you know, I might be going to college soon. I sort of dropped out - something like that - I forgot. I want a degree in journalism, no matter what my mom says.
I do, however, want your opinion on this.
Owen please reply to me. I am pretty sure you are getting these, since it says they have been delivered.
Okay. Now they say they are being read.
OWEN! HONESTLY! REPLY TO ME OR ELSE!
Or else what?
See that wasn't too hard to do. Was it? Now since have replied then I know you have read my messages. Now talk to me about them. I want your input.
No, stop leaving me on read.
Owen I need you to talk to me please.
I know dropping the I like you bomb is a big deal. But please talk to me, even if it isn't a good thing.
I'm sorry.
Sorry for what?
I don't really know. It just felt like the right thing to say.
Do you even realize how long it has taken for you to talk to me? How I have been talking to you for the whole time, expecting for you to reply? Because it really doesn't feel that way.
Sorry, I have really been busy.
With what? You didn't have any seconds to spare?
I can't really tell you yet. I'm sorry.
You can't make this better with flowers and chocolate this time. I want you to know not everything can be made better with that material stuff.
Okay.
I am tired of talking in circles, you already know that. I want us to move in one direction. I want you to own up to your mistakes, and I will do the same.
I understand.
