"Hey, stranger."

". . . Hi. It is two in the morning."

"Couldn't sleep."

"So you are ruining mine?"

"Mhm. We're friends now. It's my job to ruin your sleep."

"I do not have friends."

"You got me, remember?"

"Oh yeah . . . guess I do."

"You okay?"

". . . I do not know."

"You don't know?"

"I am . . . nervous."

"About what?"

"Me, moving . . . alone."

"Well, don't worry! I was nervous too."

"How did you get through it?"

"I just went with it. I got to my apartment. Convinced myself that I'll be okay and proceeded to go on with my day."

"That is not good advice."

"I wasn't offering you advice."

"Then what were you doing?"

"Describing feelings and an event that took place on planet Earth."

"You are annoying."

"Just . . . stop worrying."

"I am worrying."

"Well stop!"

"It does not work like that asshole!"

"Well in my books it does."

"I hate you."

"I'm sorry!"

"Fuck off."

"Look. When you move by yourself. It's overwhelming. But trust me. You'll be okay. I swear."

". . . Can you stay on call until I fall asleep?"

"Of course."

"Thank you."

"No problem stranger."
