@gloriacunningham replied to your post:[text] hey essie [text] how’s my ballerina doing?
[text] gloria. [text] do you remember me?
[Text] Gloria who?
[text] cunningham.
[text] i’m friends with you and your brother.
[Gloria Cunningham? The lawyer’s daughter?]
[Text] I haven’t seen you since we were kids. How are you?
[Oh no, she was from whatever universe Sachie was from too. She had to be since she apparently hadn’t seen her since they were kids. Wasn’t like they grew up together or anything!]
[text] i’m doing well.
[That’s one way to put it anyway.]
[text] i saw sachie today and i was wondering how you were doing.
[text] he said that you were working at cloud nine.
[Essie frowns.]
[Text] Yes, I am. I’m also studying dance at South Stitch. What about you?
[text] that’s good. he mentioned that you were going there, too.
[text] i remember you loved the ballet whenever you were younger.
[text] i’m studying physics at ssu.
[Text] Really? I haven’t seen you around campus. That’s cool.
[Jesus, this was awkward as fuck. She had no idea what to say to this Essie except small talk and small talk was annoying. She needed a drink. Or ten. Time to raid Sachie’s kitchen for alcohol.]
[text] uh listen
[text] i’m not great at this small talk junk and never have been but i just wanted to text you to see how you were doing because i care about you
[text] and if you ever need anything, just let me know.
[Text] I’ll keep that in mind. Good night, Gloria.
[Fucking weird.]
