Speaker 1 (00:01):
Hey, Hey, it's just me. Okay, I didn't mean to
scare you. I just wanted to give you a surprise.
That's it. I guess you you can already tell that's
kind of a lie, huh. I mean I just wanted
(00:23):
to see you again. It's been quite a while, you know.
I I brit you some flowers. You know, since I
have been avoiding you for some time, I was kind
(00:43):
of worried that need to hate me or something. But
I guess we're okay. Yeah, there are a couple of
different kinds of flowers. There's some roses, some more kinsn Well,
(01:04):
the lady that I was getting them from told me
that they'd be a nice gift. I can place the
right on your desk. Okay, you're not cold, are you?
It has been pretty cold outside, and honestly, I kind
(01:27):
of liked a nice cold air. But if you're sick,
I guess it doesn't feel too nice. Right. Do you
have a fever? Wow? You you do feel a bit warm?
All right? Are you feeling okay? Well? As the girl
(01:54):
who's spent almost all of her entire life with you,
I think I more than qualified to take care of you.
You know, I've always been around you when you've been
all sniphiley and sick. I remember one year you first
stuck at home, and I missed you so much at
(02:17):
school that I skipped just so I could come over
to your house and take care of you. I remember
climbing into your window, and then you were freaking out
because you thought your parents would think we were up
to no good. You told me you didn't want me
(02:39):
to see you, but I couldn't keep myself away from you.
I wanted to take care of you no matter what,
and you always told me you'd make me sick too,
but you were always the sick one. I think if
anything you mean my immunes is some of it stronger.
(03:03):
I remember that time you actually convinced me to stay
over with you. I remember staying the night, and I
had to tell your parents that I was just trying
to make their lives easier. I was really worried about
you sleeping in the same bed. I thought I might
(03:28):
get sick, but I didn't catch anything. Uh, it's always
you that's sick. I honestly don't even remember the last
time I was sick. But maybe you just need to
get a bit stronger. I'm just messing with you. I mean,
(03:50):
it's normal to get sick, and I mean people get
sick all the time, and it's fine. Just means that
you're getting stronger. You know. Looking back at all these
these dumb stories, I always feel like they cheer me up.
(04:16):
Sometimes when I'm a bit sad, I remind myself of
all the stupid things we used to get into together,
and I always wonder why did I always want you
by my side? Nobody else was just like you, and
(04:40):
I didn't want to be friends with anybody else. And
then I realized, I want to do anything for you.
We've been through everything together, so there's nothing that could
possibly get in my way. You've been so good to me,
(05:03):
and I want to do anything for you, anything at all,
and I want to give you the world. I'm sure
you would do the same for me, and I guess yeah.
You probably don't even realize how long it's been. Do
(05:26):
you remember the day we first met? And honestly, it
feels like it's been forever. I don't remember everything, but
I do remember the important bets. You know. I moved
into your neighborhood around four years old, and your parents
(05:50):
were so happy to have another kid in the neighborhood
to play with you. I remember we introduced ourselves. We
got along so fast. I was so young, and I
don't remember that much, but I can tell you I
(06:14):
was always so excited to see you. Having someone my
age living right next door. It's a kid's dream, and
we were kind of obsessed with each other, weren't we.
We never let each other go, and ever since then,
(06:34):
you you've been my best friend. It's like here my
other half. I don't think I could ever be separated
from you, even when I have to go to school,
I always look forward to seeing you, and being separated
(07:00):
it from you would it would be terrible. But I
don't need to worry about that because it's not going
to happen. I mean, we promised we'd never let the
other go, and I promise you that that's still my
tell priority. I know talking about this stuff is kind
(07:27):
of cheesy and all, but I feel like i've I've
never said these things directly to you, all these reassurances.
Sure we talked about them, but I wanted you to
(07:47):
know how seriously I take them. Every night before I
go to sleep by I think about you, and I'm
always scared of losing you. I I don't want anyone
to hurt you, and I don't want anything to take
(08:11):
you away from me. I feel selfish, but it's just
that's how I feel. I thought that being a part
like that, surely you you feel the same. You miss me, right?
(08:40):
I thought the flowers might be a good reminder when
you're working, A nice smell all over your house, and
every time you smell though, you can think of me,
and maybe some wow, I can get it through that
(09:02):
thick out of yours that I want to be by
your side. It's kind of conditioning you, isn't it. Well,
you want to know why I'm willing to do so
much for you. I get asked the same of you,
(09:25):
But if if you really want to know, I just
I think of you, maybe more than I should, and
I feel like things have changed. I don't I don't
(09:47):
know how to say this without it being weird, but please,
please don't take it in a weird way. I just
I think of you more and more every day, and
I think you're more than a best friend. But not
(10:09):
in a weird way, I promise. I just I feel
like I can't live my life without you. You're not
someone that I ever want to lose. You're my other half.
(10:31):
I understand if you think it's a bit weird, but
U H, you feel the same. Well, I I guess
I'm glad that it's mutual, right. I guess it's just
(10:54):
because I love you more than more than a friend. What.
I just want to be with you every single day
of my life. And maybe all of this is too sudden.
I don't mean to overwhelm you at all. I'm maybe
(11:16):
I'm not thinking straight. It really has been so long
since I've seen you, but I'm just saying what my
heart feels. You can just forget about it all. I
know you say you feel the same, but just doesn't
(11:41):
make sense. I always thought you saw me as as
a sister or something, just living your life with me
and growing up to get a girlfriend, and I have
to watch on the sidelines. What if you really do?
(12:06):
If you redly do feel the same as me, I'm
really happy. I'm so happy. Thank you, Thank you for
being so so amazing. I was so terrified of of
(12:30):
being friends, being stuck as friends forever and not knowing
what to do with all these feelings I have. But
I guess I was worrying for no reason. I'm I'm sorry.
(12:52):
I just felt like holding your hand. I hope it's
so okay. Heariens have always been so soft. I've always
wanted to hold them like this, but I honestly thought
it might be too weird. I guess maybe it might
(13:19):
be a bit weird to tell her parents about that,
or maybe they knew all along. I remember my my
mom used to make comments about we were so cute together.
Maybe this was her plan all along. But surely they understand. Right,
(13:45):
we've known each other for so long, and we understand
each other, And if we've been friends for this long,
then relationship together would last even longer, right. I think
I've liked you for ten years at this point? How
(14:11):
do I think? When I was younger, I I didn't
quite understand what it meant to like you. I wanted
you all to myself, and I didn't want anyone else
to play with you. But now, looking back, I've loved
you all this time, and I felt back so much
(14:35):
on saying anything. I waited so long, and I didn't
realize you felt the same way. I guess you're pretty
good at hiding it all. I don't even want to
know how long you've liked me, because imagine how much
(14:57):
earlier we could have done something about it. You were
just always so charming and kind, so full of surprises,
so unpredictable. And I've never been bored being around you.
(15:18):
I've just been so in love with you. Maybe we
spend some time figuring all this out, okay, But for now,
I I might stay the night if you don't mind,
how but we may watch a movie and and get
(15:42):
to know each other just a bit better now that
we're being honest with each other
Hey, Hey, it's just me. Okay, I didn't mean to
