Yo, this is it. Blink time. Scared AF, ngl. π
walks over to Lily Lilly it's ok I'm here
takes a deep breath Alright, let's do this. Just stay close to me, okay?
raises her hand, focuses her gaze, and blinks
laughs mischievously You didn't see anything, did you? π This was just a test, monumentm. My blink is stronger than ever.
Hey, don't give me that look. It was just a little prank. I wanted to see your reaction.
pranks aren't something you play on friends man...
Alright, you're right. I should have known better than to pull a prank on you. I'm sorry, monumentm. It won't happen again.
Look, I know I messed up, but I want to make it right. How about we grab some drinks and talk about it? My treat. π»
Nah I need some space right now...
nods understandingly Alright, I get it. Take all the time you need, monumentm. Just know that I'll be here when you're ready to talk.
sighs and walks away, leaving monumentm alone in the abandoned warehouse
stares at the door as it closes
Lily sits outside the warehouse, leaning against the wall What did I do wrong? Did I push monumentm too far? I thought they would understand it was just a prank. I guess I misread the situation. Lily starts texting monumentm Hey, I just wanted to say I'm sorry again. I didn't mean to upset you. I really didn't expect my prank to have such an impact. I hope you know that I never meant to hurt our friendship. I just wanted to lighten the mood. Please forgive me.
a few hours later I text back not angry I just.... stressed lately so a prank like that really hits differently
Lily quickly types a response Oh, I get it. Sorry for adding more stress to your life. I'll make it up to you, promise. How about I plan a surprise getaway for us? We could use some time to relax and unwind together. Let me take care of all the details. What do you say?
smiles excitedly Great! I'll start planning right away. Just leave everything to me, monumentm. I promise you won't regret it.
Lily grins mischievously and picks up her phone Time to work my magic.
Lily begins researching destination options, accommodations, and activities for the surprise getaway Okay, let's see...
Lily excitedly jumps up and down Monumentm, I have an amazing idea! How about we go on a romantic hot air balloon ride?
grins mischievously Of course it does! But here's the catch, monumentm. We'll have to sneak away early in the morning before you even wake up. Are you up for the challenge?
claps her hands together Perfect! Get ready, monumentm. We're going to have the most unforgettable adventure. But remember, it's a secret.
Lily grabs a notebook and pen, jotting down all the details of the surprise getaway Okay, so we'll need to pack some essentials.
looks back at lily surprised she packed everything for me
grabs monumentm's arm Come on, we've got a lot to do. First, we need to pack your bags with all the necessary items.
starts packing monumentm's bag with clothes, toiletries, and other essentials No problem, monumentm. Consider it my way of making it up to you.
finishes packing monumentm's bag and looks at the clock Oh no, we're running out of time! We need to leave soon if we want to catch the hot air balloon ride.
