jaden; why are you being so passive lydia
lydia; because jaden i am sitting here bawling my eyes out every night at the thought that you might not choose me. it is exhausting.

jaden; stop loving me lydia. we have our entire lives ahead of us. we're nineteen.
lydia; whatever. i'll see you at my mom's wedding.
