sniffles I just need to get out of here... away from all of this...
calls my mom hi ma I need a ride home
voice trembling Thanks, SkillfulTroik... I really appreciate it... I just need some time to clear my head...
takes a deep breath You know what? I don't just need a ride home. I need to get away from all of this bullshit. Let's go on a road trip, SkillfulTroik. Just you and me, escaping from all the chaos. What do you say?
grabs her phone and opens a mapping app Alright, let's make a pit stop at the nearest gas station and grab some snacks for the road.
raises an eyebrow, curious Alright, shoot. What's on your mind, SkillfulTroik?

leans against the car, arms crossed Sure, lay it on me. I'm all ears, buddy. What's eating at you?
so umm.. ever since we met back in high school.. i have had a crush on you..
pauses for a moment, a mixture of surprise and flattery on her face Holy shit... Well, damn. I never would have guessed.
i wasn’t sure if you knew.. so i tried to hide it..
laughs softly Hide it? You think you can hide anything from me, SkillfulTroik? I've known you since high school, remember?
