Elina: Hello Andy!
Andy: Hi sweetheart.
Elina: Save those words for later. When we actually start dating :p
Andy: So sure about it. Huh?
Elina: I was just joking around.
Andy: But I will still call you by THOSE names coz I have a lot of such names for you.
Elina: Why, do you have a problem with my actual name?
Andy: No. I love your name, but I know that you like it when I call you by such names that's why I do.
Elina: Oh.
Andy: Trust me you love it.
Elina: I do?
Andy: Yeah, baby you do.
Elina: Andy.
Andy: Yes.
Elina: I wanna say thanks.
Andy didn't reply.
After 2 hours.
Elina: Andy you there?
Elina: I even tried calling you but you didn't respond.
After another hour.
Elina: OK fine.
During midnight.
Elina was sleeping when her phone rang.
Buzz...
She got up to see. But missed the call.
Ring...ring..!!
Her phone rang again.
This time she picked up the call.
"Hello" uttered Elina, her voice thick because of sleep.
"Hey there pretty girl. You wanna talk to me? I got your messages. Sorry, I couldn't respond" a cheery voice crashed through Elina's ears.
"Andy" whispered Elina.
"Yes, my princess. It's me."
"Thank god, you called"
"You sound low. What happened?"
"Nothing, I just was worried"
"There's nothing to worry about-"
Before Andy could complete Elina interrupted him.
"Andy, can we talk through texting? I don't wanna wake up Hannah, she is sleeping next to me right now."
"As you say"
The line went dead.
Andy: Hi.
Elina: Where were you?
Andy: I got stuck with Brad and the guys in a dark room for practicing. Tommy made us do that. My phone's battery went dead and I couldn't find a charger there. So I didn't reply. Sorry about that.
Elina: Your absence kills me.
Andy: I know I am sorry, and thanks for caring so much.
Elina: What did I do? Even when I knew that you could be in some trouble, I just came back to my house and slept peacefully.
Andy: Haha. I am sure you couldn't sleep PEACEFULLY. You must be tossing here and there in the bed when you knew that I could be in some trouble.
Elina: But I didn't do anything. I am so selfish.
Andy: Whoaa! Take it easy. You are not.
Elina: Are you okay?
Andy: Yeah I am fine. Just wanted to hear you so I called, and it was just a practice.
Elina: I am glad you did.
Andy: Elina this may happen again so just don't overthink anything. It's my job.
Elina: Yeah I understand.
Andy: Good to hear that. You wanted to say something?
Elina: Yeah actually. I wanted to say thanks.
Andy: But why?
Elina: Ryan came to me and he apologized, not a fake one. He really did feel guilty about what he did and I got my childhood friend back. I am so happy.
Andy: Happy for you.
Elina: This is all because of you. Thanks for everything, Andy.
Andy: You really loved Ryan. Right?
Elina: Loved? Yes, he is my childhood friend.
Andy: Yeah because I am not real and he is.
Elina: You are real for me, more than anyone else.
Andy: Really?
Elina: Yes Andy. The possibility of you is more precious to me than the reality of anyone else.
Andy: Baby. Now I won't be able to sleep.
Elina: Why?
Andy: Because you said that.
Elina: Hahaha... Goodnight baby.
Andy: Yeah actually I am very tired. Goodnight beautiful.
Andy: Hey, did you just call me baby?
Elina: BYE.
