someone

When Lewis sees Sawyer, he considers just walking in the other direction, she had made it clear she had no interest in being in contact with him, or maybe she had just lost her phone? But after over a year, that was just impossible. There was a few weeks where he felt so stupid for missing that one text of hers, but he had since moved on to other things. So what is keeping him from just saying hello to her? And so, that is what he decides to do, “hey, it’s been a while.” he just says, more awkwardly than he thought it would be.

“   Right. Well, for an in person drop off, you can put that box there  —   ”   She gestured to an empty spot down the counter.   “   And I can look through it, make sure everything is useable for me to sort and wash and price later. Do you want an estimated value for tax write offs? I can grab you a form. If you’re in a rush, if we take down your contact info we can call you about it later.  ”

          “ Oh, and who’s paying for that? You? At least my resolution isn’t gonna burn a hole in your wallet. Or lungs. Where am I gonna find a marathon?”

          “ Yeah, but you’re like, white. You know? There’s a difference.”​

Getting off work early meant that Joshua was able to walk his dog outside of their usual neighbourhood, the beach was always a favorite of his, he could enjoy the fresh air and Caramel - the most original name for a dog - was free to run around as much as she wanted. He was about to throw one of her toys in her direction when instead, she ran the other way toward someone on the beach. “Sorry!” He called out, walking quickly towards where the person was standing. “She thinks everyone wants to be her friend.”

         “ Um, obviously not. But keep dreaming, Joshy. Whatever. Fine, what genius resolution have you got for me?”

         “ Oh, shut up. If you wanted the whole ‘ go to the gym and eat better ’ bullshit you wouldn’t have come to me. Besides, it will make your year better. Because I think it’s funny. Which means I’ll have to start watching. See how much good it’s doing already? ”

There’s no use in ARGUING this; Sofia as uninterested in compromise as himself. He imagines Kitty would be, too. A touch of his cheek, and he finds some common ground. If not for him and his mother, then for him and his sister. That’s a new one.

         “ Maybe its your turn to branch out, meet new people… Open your mind ‘n sh—crap. ‘Cos we’re doing jus’ fine. Seriously. Kitty would say the same thing. ”

         “ You’re so damn nit-picky. Alright, okay. I think your new year’s resolution should be…” Index tapping against full lips, Minoo embodies the thought she puts into this. A moment passed, and— “ Incorporating as many Hannah Montana: The Movie references into your show as you can. But like, at least one a week. Don’t be a pussy. ”
