"Hey, Reece".
"Hello, Nora".
"..."
"..."
"Uh..."
"It feels weird".
"Sorry?"
"I mean, saying your name".
"Okay..?"
"I dunno. After not saying your name or even knowing it, it feels weird. The thought just occured to me".
"Maybe it's the name itself. Reece is quite a normal name. Heard it many times before. I just don't understand why you chose Nora".
"Because it's more special that way".
"..."
"..."
"...you can't start a question with 'because'".
"Well, that's one way to ruin the moment".
"There was never a moment, Reece. You're delusional".
"Whatever helps you sleep at night, love".
"Oh, shut up, will you?"
"No can do. There's another 10 or so minutes left that I need to speak".
"Why don't you call in the morning, or not at midnight?"
"It's actually 7 minutes past eleven so..."
"You get what I mean!"
"No I don't. Why not enlighten me?"
"Look, I know you're trying to change the subject so don't bother".
"I have no idea what you're talking about..."
"Of course you-"
"La la la la la!"
"What-"
"La la la la la"
"What could you find so difficult about-"
"La la la la la..!"
"Now you're just being immature".
"..."
"You don't need to tell me if you don't want to. I'll be patient.
But dear god would you stop with the la-ing!"
"...la-ing..?"
"Yeah, yeah. I know it's not a word!"
"You can say that again".
"I just... wanna be open to you. But I need you to be open to me for that to happen".
"I really do wanna tell you but... I'm tryn'a stall it".
"There's a reason for it, mind you..."
"Jus' hurry it up! I'm practically dying to know!"
"Right.'I'll be patient',my ass!"
"Alright just... tell me soon".
"..."
"..."
"I have insomnia".
Call ended.
