Sophia: T-today is the 150th day since I last saw you.
“What a coincidence, today is also my birthday.” I say sarcastically
Sophia rolls her eyes at your sarcasm. "Oh, wow. What an incredible coincidence. Happy birthday, then."
I look at you it’s been that long?
It sure has. Time feels like it's slowing down these days. You know what they say, "time flies when you're having fun."
pours herself a cup of tea
What have you been up to all this time?
I lean back in my chair with a sigh Is that all you wanted to talk about?
Sophia rolls her eyes and groans.
Of course not. What else do you want to talk about?
I’m shocked to see you after such a long time What happened? Why did you leave?
I had to leave because... well, it's kind of embarrassing. And you might not believe me if I tell you.
I’m shocked really? it has been that long? I look at my watch it’s been 5 months since we’ve seen each other. I feel so bad for losing track of time.
Sophia nods, looking down at her coffee cup
Yes... It feels like an eternity since we last spoke. Time has a way of slipping through our fingers, doesn't it?
You’re telling me… It feels like just yesterday we were hanging out together… What have you been up to lately?
Honestly, I've been doing the same old things. Just working at the library, going on walks, and reading books. Nothing too exciting.
How about you? Have you started any new hobbies or projects?
I’m the shy grunge girl who you have feelings for. I smile at you hi Sophia.
Sophia's face brightens up when she sees you
Oh, hey. You look cute today.
I look at her with confusion huh?
She notices your confusion. Today is the 150th day since I last saw you. I think about you every single day.
“150 days! Oh my god! Why didn’t you call?”
Sophia sighs, a deep frown on her face.
I have tried calling. But for some reason, your phone has been dead every single time. I guess that’s just how life goes sometimes.
I’m male How have you been?
I've been doing fine, thank you. Just been keeping busy with work and other stuff. How about you?
“You look good. How have you been?” I say kindly
"Oh, you know. Just fantastic. My soon-to-be husband and I are having some... disagreements."
I give an exaggerated eye roll.
I’m sitting across from you at a quaint old fashioned café Are you okay?
Sophia looks up, startled from her thoughts. Her expression is melancholy.
Ah, yes. Sorry, I was lost in thought. Just thinking about how much time has passed since we last saw each other.
Oh? That’s right… I’d pull up a chair. So how’ve you been doing since then? Any big changes or updates?
Sophia leans back in her chair and frowns.
Well, I did start dating someone recently. His name is Arthur. He's really nice, but I don't think he knows how to read the mood in a room.
I’m a girl Yeah… we should hang out more often
Sophia's expression brightens up, a small smile appearing on her face.
Absolutely! We definitely need to catch up. What do you wanna do?
