Owen || Cassidy
"Oh, goodness, Cassidy."
"What?"
"I so badly want to hear you say that in person."
"I can't quite do that.
"Well, I mean I can, but just not right now because I am busy doing other things. And I am not quite ready for it.
"Don't get me wrong, I would love to met you and see you and say it in person but I am nervous."
"Like really, really, really, really--"
"Cassidy, Sweetheart."
"Yes?"
"You're rambling."
"I am?"
"Oh, I'm sorry."
"I'm going to stop you there. I know you will start back up again. I would love to met you too Cassidy."
"That's good. I'm glad you said that because I have more news."
"What is that?"
"So, I might have discovered a really good college for me. Because I want to go to school for journalism."
"That's good. I'm glad you found that. I'm also glad that you decided you to go to school for it. There is no doubt in my mind that you will be an amazing journalist."
"Thank you, Owen. I really appreciate. And guess what, you will see it all as it unfolds. Actually you will most likely be the first person to see it."
"As much as I love hearing about your life and all the amazing things I know you will accomplish--"
"Thanks, again."
"No problem, Sweetheart. But how am I supposed to see it as it unfolds like you say?"
"Guess where the college is?"
"I want to say New York so you would be with me, but that is unfair."
"Well, you wouldn't be wrong."
"What? Are you kidding me?"
"Nope. I am being completely serious, Owen. I am moving to New York to attend school at Pratt Institute."
"That's amazing, Cassidy. It really is. I am so proud and excited for you."
"Thank you, again."
"That's not all. I will only be about 41 minutes away from you."
"Way better than the alternative. But are you sure you want to make the big move?"
"More than anything. I am completely sure about that. Because I love you, Owen."
