magicbeans. nothing if not awkward.

bean: 'it's so hard to keep myself from just breaking down and calling her.'

er!n: 'i don't know how you do it. i can't. even after erin and i had the most terrible fight, i went back that evening and just stood there while he continued to say awful things.'

but of course, there's also the problem of what would i say to her? (or her voicemail, as the case may be.)

'i don't accept this.'

or

(possibly venomously:) 'i hope that you find what you're looking for.'

and/or

'i hope i'll be part of that.'

or

'go to hell.'

or

'would you like to go out for a drink?' '..to a movie?' '..for dinner?' '..with your friends?'

or

'your love is like leaves to me. or at least leaves have something to do with all of this. there's a poem in there that i never wrote.'

or simply

'i miss you.'
