Asa's hand paused before the blade came down again, still holding it at the base. How many times was he going to repeat himself tonight? She'd heard that exact sentence enough times for it to strike a nerve. For the briefest moment, her fingers almost shifted on their own. Almost as if she were debating setting the knife down completely just to keep the peace and move on without making a comment. Instead, she glanced down at the knife, then back toward the cutting board. The corner of her mouth twitched into something that looked more amused than anything else.

The rapper waited at the lobby of their dorms. Patiently waiting for her friend to swing by. During the waiting period, she decided to dig around Pinterest. Saving memes for a later time, organizing her albums, finding outfit inspos. The usual. Quite honestly, she had been so focused on her phone that she nearly forgot why she was waiting to be picked up. It wasn't until she saw the lights flashing outside that pulled her back to reality.

ERIC: waaaaaaaaait ERIC: this is ur submission????? ERIC: asaauuuuuhhhhh ERIC: this isnt just a meme ok ERIC: this is premium life advice ERIC: 9/10 ERIC: minus 1 pt bc now i feel like i need to rethink my entire life ERIC: also ur funny relax ERIC: i literally been callin u 4 different ways bc i missed 1 meme ERIC: sendin this to the wrong person made it better ERIC: like imagine this ok somewhere out there some rando is wonderin y u told them to go w the flow at 8am ERIC: so go get ur beauty sleep

Asa: PREMIUM LIFE ADVICE?? Asa: Ok so you want me to suffer? Asa: Also u need to rethink ur WHOLE life or just some? Asa: LMAO! Pls, you think that I would miss out on sending you a meme? What would be the point of getting out of bed in the morning? Asa: I need to share the meme with someone or it's like an itch I can't scratch Asa: That cow looks like some old album cover SKLFS Asa: I couldn't find a funny one today but LOOK AT HOW CUTE THIS ONE IS!

pharita glanced down at herself almost instinctively when asa pointed out her top, fingers lightly pinching at the hem as if seeing it through someone else's eyes. "hm?" she looked back up before smiling. "oh— yeah. i bought it a little while ago, but this is the first time i've actually worn it." she gave the fabric another quick look before adding, "i couldn't decide if i liked it or not." truthfully, she'd stood in front of her closet debating between three different outfits before finally settling on this one. hearing asa notice it made her feel surprisingly reassured.

"Thank you, thank you." She dipped into an equally exaggerated bow before following Pharita out into the hallway. "I've worked very hard to earn such a title." They slipped into the elevator, Asa pressing the button for the lobby as she watched the numbers descend. By the time the elevator reached the ground floor, the two had already fallen into the familiar rhythm that always seemed to come so naturally between them.

Asa: IF that staff didn't laugh at my meme then shame on them Asa: It was also cute! you would've liked it! Asa: But I can't recycle memes or else it loses it's purpose yk? Asa: Yk, they have NOT messaged me back! Asa: Now I'm wondering if it was an old staff member or it was a random person in my contacts list that I forgot to delete Asa: OR Am I not funny as I think I am? Asa: WAIT don't tell me that the meme standards are high! I'm not going to be able to sleep now!

pharita took one last look at herself in the mirror before smoothing an invisible wrinkle from the front of her outfit. she wasn't usually the type to spend forever deciding what to wear, but she had changed twice after convincing herself the first choice felt too casual and the second one looked like she had tried too hard. eventually, she'd settled somewhere comfortably in the middle. with a satisfied little nod, she grabbed her phone and slipped it into her bag before making her way out of her room.

Asa had been lounging on the couch for a few minutes now, phone in hand as she mindlessly scrolled through whatever had managed to steal her attention for more than five seconds. Every now and then she'd glance toward the hallway leading to the bedrooms, wondering how much longer Pharita would be. Not that she minded waiting. They'd already agreed over text that Asa would hang out in the living room while Pharita finished getting ready, and honestly, it gave Asa an excuse to do absolutely nothing before they left. The quiet footsteps eventually pulled her attention away from her screen. She looked up just as Pharita stepped into the living room, a grin spreading across her face almost immediately. "All set?" Asa slipped her phone into the pocket of her hoodie before pushing herself off the couch. Her eyes drifted over Pharita for a second, and she couldn't help the amused smile that tugged at her lips. "Wait..." She tilted her head slightly. "Is that a new top?"

ERIC: asa @asauh ERIC: asaaaaaaa ERIC: asa-chan ERIC: ms meme department ERIC: hello???? ERIC: its been 6 hrs and still no meme of the day ERIC: im not mad

Asa: Omg, did it not go through???? Asa: I thought I sent you one this morning! Asa: Omgeez! I sent it to a staff member 😬😬 Asa: Ok, well that was a bust! I have to send you something new now since I don't like to recycle ideas Asa: Hmm, what meme can I send you that you haven't seen already? Asa: [image attached]
