[ Ring, Ring]

[ Female voice]: Hello

Fallen: Oh, I am sorry I thought this was Eden

[ Female Voice]: Fallen?

Fallen: Yes, but who is this

Kelsey: Oh, Hey girl um we need to talk

Fallen: About?

Kelsey: You wanted to talk to E hold on

Eden: Hello

Fallen pauses and take a deep breath

Fallen: Happy Birthday!

Eden: Fall hey thank you I was hoping to hear from you

Fallen: you welcome and of course how can I miss your birthday

Eden: I know you never have. I miss you why don't you come to my party Rose is throwing for me with my recovery and all

Fallen: I have to work so I don't think I will be able to but thanks for the invite though

Eden sighs on the phone

Eden: It wouldn't be a party without you

Fallen pauses

Fallen: E I can't make it sorry

Sadly, Eden understands and then he closes his eyes and take a deep breath to see Fallen sitting on her couch holding back tears and then he snaps back in surprise wondering what just happened

Kelsey: E baby you okay what the hell just happened

Eden: Nothing!!!!!

He says quickly and confused on the other side Fallen asked what was going on

Eden: I understand Fallen you don't have to come

And then he hangs up

Fallen confused just looks at the phone and then she gets a call coming

Fallen: Hello

Kelsey: What the hell Fallen

Fallen: What now Kelsey is E alright

Kelsey: Skip him he gone ... why wouldn't you come to yo best friend party now he done storm out mad

Fallen: No, it would be weird

Kelsey: but he was hoping you came for some odd reason everything he did he had you in mind

Then Fallen hangs up on her mid convocation

3 hours Later

[ Knock, Knock]

Fallen wonders who is at her door, so she asks who is it.

Eden: Fallen open up now!!!

Hesitating she slowly cracks the door open

Fallen: What do you want?

Eden: Let me in.!!!

She takes a deep breath and open the door and he rush to her and grabs her and hugs her tight

Fallen: What the hell E

Eden: Are you okay ... I saw I mean I felt like something was hurting you what's wrong Fall

Fallen: Nothing I am fine I promise

Not believing her he sits in the couch and looks at her.

Fallen: What?
