"Hey my love, what is going on? Just got your message are you ok?"

"Yes, yes, I am well. I just needed to hear your voice. How are you?"

"I am well, just hanging out with Faris and we're planning for our next set together. We'll be playing at Mo's housewarming."

"Oh that is cool. I wish I could be there."

"Yes me too, I can't wait till we are in one city again baby!"

"Yes, yes me too."

Silence that can be cut with a knife.

"How is your Chicago trip going? Enjoying your work trip? I hope James is giving you a break from all the free booze"

"Ugh yeah, well...haha..yea there was a lot of that. I feel very hungover today."

"Ohhh sounds like a wild James night. Did I not warn you of that James? Anyways I hope you two had a good bro night out."

"Ughh, yeah we did, but then I met someone, and I just needed to talk to you to ground myself again."

"Ooooh you met someone! Well look I am not ready to hear about you kissing another woman right now, ok?"
