Chapter 2.08: July 22, 2017

Riiiiiiiiiing. Riiii—

"Ken on the line."

"Kenny, hey."

"Eru, I love hearing the sound of your voice, but I'm pretty sure it's one in the morning over there. Why are you calling? Is there something wrong?"

"If there was, would you come and save me?"

"I can't, my princess. I'm sorry."

"Figures."

"So why are you calling?"

"I miss you, Kenny."

"Miss you, too."

"And I know you won't come home, but I really miss you. If we can't see each other, then can we at least talk to each other?"

"By all means. However, might I request that you call me?"

"And why is that?"

"My phone seems to be malfunctioning, so I can't call from it. I can take calls, though."

"You should just get a new one."

"I do apologize my princess, but I can't. I can't get a new phone here."

"You just can't do a lot of things, can you?"

"No, I can't, but I do offer my sincerest apologies, my princess."

"Don't worry about it, my dork."

"Happy early birthday, by the way. Just in case you're too busy celebrating your temporary release from the hospital to call me."

"I will never be too busy to call you. And how did you know I was given temporary leave?"

"I'll never tell you my secrets."

"If you say so. What have you been doing, wherever you are, anyway?"

"Oh, just little things here and there. Nothing worth writing home about."

"Is there anything worth coming home for?"

"Eru, Eru, Eru, please stop with such silly questions. There's no turning back now."

"I miss you."

"…Miss you, too. Do you need to get some rest?"

"No."

"Lies, I know you do. Have a good night, Eru."

"I can't. Not without you."

"Eru…"

"Fine. Love you."

"I love you."

"If you truly loved me, you never would have left."

"Eru, that's hardly fair. It isn't my fault."

"…"

"Eru, don't do this to me. You're making it harder than it already is."

"Fine. G'night."

"I'm sorry I can't be there to save you."

"Me, too."
