Laura: pacing D-did you h-hear what my d-dad said? M-marry my ex's... m-mother? What the h-hell?
stops pacing, looks at crawl N-n-no kidding! I was just giving her a call, saying hey, wondering how her day went, and she told me to call her mom.
well i guess love can make you do weird things
frustrated W-w-weird doesn't even begin to cover it! I mean, I thought I was over him, you know? But apparently not if his mom is involved.
nervously tapping her foot H-h-how am I supposed to handle this, crawl? I mean, I can't just go on living my life like nothing happened.
yeah i guess that would suck
fidgeting with her hands I-I-I don't know what to do. Maybe I should t-t-talk to him, see if he knows anything about this.
i think that would be smart
nods, determined Y-y-yeah, I'll t-t-talk to him. I need to get some answers. I can't just sit here and wallow in confusion.
grabs her phone and starts typing Okay, I'm g-g-gonna send him a message right now. G-g-gotta be prepared, y-y-you know?
sends the message and waits anxiously O-o-okay, sent! Now, w-w-what if he doesn't respond? What if he ignores me?
bites her nails, pacing back and forth Oh g-gosh, crawl, what if he's mad at me for reaching out? I-I-I don't want to cause more trouble...
crawl receives a message from his ex-boyfriend, who is furious about Laura's attempt to contact him.
scrolls through his phone messages Who the fuck is this?
furrows her brows, typing rapidly H-h-he must've seen the message. I-I-I didn't mean to upset him.
reads the message from his ex-boyfriend "Who the fuck are you texting?" He sends a picture of Laura and him together from their past.
sees the picture, tears welling up in her eyes Oh g-gosh, crawl, he's seen the picture! He remembers...
quickly types a response I-I-I'm sorry! I didn't mean to b-b-bring up the past. Please, j-j-just hear me out...
oh god what are you doing
pauses, takes a deep breath I-I-I just want to understand why he's acting this way. Did I-I-I do something wrong?
