"Keep your head up Princess, your tiara is falling."
"Did you really try to comfort me with that line?"
"Well. Is it working?"

Good morning, Owen.
Good morning, Cassidy. This is how I like to start my day and conversation with you.
Instead of what?
How it was yesterday. With you skipping out on what you called "pleasantries".
I understand. I'm sorry about doing that. I just wanted get ahead of the game because I knew we didn't have a lot of time and so much to talk about.
I know that, Cassidy. Speaking about that, how was work yesterday?
Alright. So you want to talk about a rumor today, talk about ourselves or talk about random things today?
How about we just talk about anything and everything.
Sure, that works for me. How do you want to talk?
What do you mean? I don't understand.
Yesterday you said something about not wanting to say big and personal things over text.
So I was thinking, how do you feel about talking on the phone?
I mean we don't have to start saying "personal things" right away, just like start off small?
What do you think?
Owen, why aren't you replying?
I think that would be a good idea. I want to hear your voice again.
Oh, and you kept texting and texting, not really giving me time or a chance to reply.
Huh, yeah that would make it difficult. But what do you mean by again?
High School, remember?
Duh, except I don't really remember you like at all. I thought you would have said when I posed as a delivery girl to give you your gift when we first started talking.
That would have worked and made a little bit more sense since that happened not to long ago.
Wait, what do you mean by "don't really remember you like at all?"
Owen, we've already gone over this. I told you I don't remember you, what's the big deal about that?
You make me feel like I was an invisible person, which I know is completely the opposite of what high school was. I'm having a hard time trying to figure out if that is a good thing or not.
Give me more information about high school from your view.
Maybe some other day and over a different form of communication.
Too personal?
Yeah. I'll just tell you that I wasn't really liked.
Even after what I have told you?
Do you mean the one with you abandoning the people you pretty much hated hanging out with? Because that doesn't seen like a big deal.
Also, please don't get angry, I am not trying to do that. I am just slightly confused.
I understand. Let's talk about this tomorrow. I can feel that we are both starting to get angry and fighting is the last thing I want to do with you.
