6 The Break Up

"Hello!" You could heat the smile in his voice.

"Hello? We are done!"

"What? Why?"

"I've been up all night worried sick about you."

"You? Were worried about me?"

"Yes I was worried about you! You never called! You said you were going to call when you got home no matter what time! And you didn't call. We are done."

"I'm sorry I was out with friends."

"I know but you said you would call, and you always call when you say you will and I was worried about you. And what if something happened? Who was I going to call? I didn't know what bar you were at or even what town you were in."

"You were worried about me."

"Yes I was worried about you."

"You really care about me."

"Of course I care about you we've been talking for 8 months, why wouldn't I care about you?"

"No one has ever cared about me like that before."

"Why didn't you call? You could have called at 2am and I would have been happy. I can't do this. I can't be with someone who doesn't care enough to call."

"I'm sorry. I actually was going to call after my shower but I passed out drunk in the shower."

"You what?!!!"

"I passed out in the shower. I drank too much."

"I can't. I can't deal with someone who doesn't care and I cannot deal with a drunk."

"I didn't know you cared. Give me one more chance. Please."

"Ok. One chance no more drinking and passing out. If that happens again we are done."

"No more drinking I promise. I leave here Friday I'll come see you."

"You're going to come see me?!"

"Yes. I have to go, lots to do to close the office. Talk to you tonight. Love you."
