The girls’ conversation
“Meg, it’s been a while! You free right now?”
“What’s up?”
“It’s been ages since we last talked like this, huh? How’s life with Yamamoto?”
“What about it?”
“Thanks for the usual cold shoulder! I’m starting to get hooked on it!”
“Akari, I’m heading to my part-time job soon, so later, okay?”
＊＊＊
“Sorry, just finished.”
“Good work! You started a part-time job!?”
“Yeah. At a convenience store.”
“Wait, is it the same one as Yamamoto?”
“Got a problem with that?”
“No way, it’s cute!”
“Don’t tease me.”
“Sorry, sorry. So, you free this Saturday?”
“Why?”
“It’s Silver Week, and Ito-chan and Ota-chan are coming to Tokyo. Let’s hang out together!”
“I’m broke.”
“I’ll cover you!”
“Nah, you guys have fun.”
“Everyone’s been worried since you went radio silent, you know? Come on, at least show your face!”
“No thanks. They didn’t even like me that much, did they?”
“I think they did!”
“So you admit there’s a chance they didn’t. Look, I’m good. If I told them about my situation now, they’d probably look down on me.”
“Oh, by the way, I haven’t told them anything about how you’re doing, okay?”
“I’m not doubting you, so don’t worry.”
“Come on, Meg, I’m begging you.”
“I said no.”
“Okay, truth is, the whole ‘everyone’s coming’ thing is just an excuse. I really just want to see you, Meg. It’s been forever.”
“So you thought saying everyone’s coming would make it harder for me to say no?”
“Exactly!”
“Well, too bad it didn’t work.”
“Please, please~! Meg~!”
“I said no.”
“I wanna see you!”
“No way.”
“I wanna see you I wanna see you I wanna see you I wanna see you I wanna see you I wanna see you I wanna see you I wanna see you I wanna see you I wanna see you I wanna see you I wanna see you I wanna see you I wanna see you I wanna see you I wanna see you I wanna see you I wanna see you I wanna see you I wanna see you I wanna see you I wanna see you I wanna see you I wanna see you I wanna see you I wanna see you I wanna see you I wanna see you I wanna see you I wanna see you I wanna see you I wanna see you I wanna see you I wanna see you I wanna see you I wanna see you I wanna see you I wanna see you I wanna see you!”
“That’s creepy! Fine, fine, I get it!”
“Really?”
“If you’re gonna keep going till I say yes, I don’t have a choice, do I?”
“Thank you, Meg!”
“Where are we meeting?”
“Shibuya, 2 p.m.!”
“That’s kinda early.”
“We’re meeting the others at 5 p.m.”
“Why so early then?”
“Because I want to see you sooner!”
“Got it.”
“Oh, and make sure to tell Yamamoto, okay? Let him know you won’t be home for dinner!”
Feels like there’s a huge time gap between the lines.
