Text Key: italics bold=Joe She went downstairs and outside. She found a payphone and a phonebook. And just had to drag there daughter along. What seemed like instantly, he texted back. "Sorry"he says.
italics=Malin
I hered you moved back
Malin stared at her cell phone for awhile. In 3 years, he decides to call now.
Ok she admits, he has called her in the first 2 years. But hardly.
How’d you get my number?
She couldn’t help it but to text back.
She couldn’t believe that she got her apartment back. After 3 years!
Everything seemed the same.
Considering the new furniture. The 3 years to your appearance. And no Joe.
She grabbed her phone of the table when she saw it vibrating.
It took a lot. But I finally got it.
She rolled her eyes while reading his text.
But somehow, she couldn’t stop her fingers from texting back.
Oh what did you do, Jonas? Whip out some money and get your answer on a silver platter?
It surprised her how addictive it was for her just to text him.
She remembered how addictive it was just to talk to him.
And to be with him.
When they were friends. It’s all she wanted to do. Just hang out with him. To be with him. It was all she did.
She let go off the phone and put it on her bed.
She almost tripped over a box with a image of him in her mind.
She thought of how she needed a phonebook.
She looked through the pages and found a Chinese food restaurant number. She called it up and
ordered some food.
She went back into her apartment. And started unpacking some suff.
Another thing different, no parents. They had there own house in California, Japan, Italy, and Costa Rica. Yes, her parents had a good deal of money. Ever since they moved to Japan 3 years ago.
She couldn’t help herself when she saw her phone.
She picked it up. 12 new messages.
No.
Why would you thin that?
Hello?
Are you mad at me?
It really took a lot to get your number
I promise
I didn’t just pay someone to get it
Malin?
Please talk to me
I’m sorry
Sorry
I really am sorry
Again, temptation got to her. She just had to text back.
What am I supposed to say? I’m disappointed...
You could have called me too, you know. It’s not all my fault
She frowned and clenched her fists.
So it’s all my fault
I suppose it’s always my fault
He must have been sitting somewhere or something with his phone in his hand. Just waiting for her responses.
It’s not all your fault
Still it didn’t satisfy her.
it’s not my fault
I used to call you every damn day
you’d never call back. You were always on tour.
always away
I always waited by the phone for you to call
Her anger turned to sorrow.
You did?
I’m sorry
I always meant to call you
but I’m so busy
She wiped some tears away.
Too busy for me
I get it
The instant reply from him. Didn’t come. It took 5 minutes for him to say something back.
It’s not like that
It’s my job. I’m a singer. In a band. And I had so much to do
She did understand. Although most people wouldn’t.
How long does it take to just text every once in awhile?
Your right
I should have just called you
but I was scared I’d say the wrong thing. And you’d hate me
She jumped onto her bed.
I’d never hate you!
No matter how many times I’ve said it to people or to you.
She laid down.
I’d never hate you either
She turned onto her stomach.
She was about to text back but the doorbell rung. She dropped her phone and ran to get the door.
She opened the door. The deliver man gave her the food and she gave him the money.
She turned on her stereo and sang along with the words.
She put her food on the counter and ran back into the living room.
She turned the music up.
She went into the her room and picked up her cell phone.
I need you Malin
She rolled her eyes.
What do you want from me?
You can just get some other girl
Any other girl
She walked into the kitchen.
I don’t know
I don’t want any other girl
She sat on the counter and ate a bite of her food.
I don’t know what to do anymore
She poured herself some iced tea that she made the other day.
I don’t even know if I can trust you
She sipped her tea.
I wish you would
She went to get another cup of tea and realized there wasn’t any left.
In fact, there wasn’t anything to drink.
She slipped on some heels and grabbed her keys.
She opens the door and trips over something. But before she fell she felt two hands on her legs stabilizing her.
She looks down and sees Joe sitting on the floor.
She felt her throat tighten up.
"How long have you been out here?"she says.
"Since I followed you from the phone booth"he says.
"That was almost two hours ago"she says.
"I know"he says, "babe"
she frowns.
"Too early for jokes"he says.
"You think?"she says.
"You get your hands off of me know"she says.
"Sorry again"he says.
He grabs a bottle sitting next to him.
"Didn’t come empty handed. I got you that Naked juice you like"he says and hands her the bottle.
"You remembered?"she says.
"I remember a lot about you"he says.
She offers her hand.
He grabs it and almost pulls her down.
"Sorry. Still a little weakling?"he says.
She crossed her arms.
He gets up by himself.
"Thanks for the offer"he says.
‘Yeah, yeah"she says.
"Where were you going?"he says.
"To get something to drink. All out of tea. But I guess I don’t have to do that now"she says.
"Yeah I guess not"he says.
They walk into her apartment.
"So I was right. Just moved back"he says looking at the boxed filled room.
"Yeah"she says.
"What happened to living in Japan?"he says.
"Don’t know"she says.
"Didn’t like it there?"he says.
"No. I loved it there"she says.
"Than why’d you move back"he says.
"Because I was missing something here"she says, "and hoped if I came back I’d see him again"
"Well did you?"he says.
"He is standing right next to me"she says.
"You moved back because of me"he says.
"Well...no......yeah"she says.
She popped in some of her Chinese food into the microwave.
"I missed you"he says.
She grabs her food out of the microwave and sits down on the counter.
"Me too"she says.
He puts a hand on the counter on each side of her. He leans in.
She leans back.
"What are you doing?"she says.
She clearly knew what he was trying to do. Or thought she knew.
He opens his eyes and looks at her weird. He goes to pull away. But changes his mind.
He closes his eyes again.
"Joe...."she says.
She couldn’t say another word because his lips crashed into hers.
She almost hit her head against the cupboard behind her if he didn’t out his hand on the back of her head.
She closed her eyes and grabbed a hold of him.
He smiled into the kiss as she kissed back.
"I love you so"she says but couldn’t finish what she was going to say because he went in for more.
"Wait?! What?!"he says.
"I love"she says.
"I know what you said. I just can’t believe it"he says.
She presses her head against his forehead.
"Well believe it babe"she says.
She pecked him on the nose.
"I"he says
She interrupts him by kissing him.
"Love.....you.......too"he says between kisses.
She hugs him and they smile as he hugs back.
"I’m glad you texted me today"she says.
"Me too"he says.
