...this is the suicide hotline yes?
Screaming but no one hears
These were the words of a forgotten poet.
Standing on stage,I could understand the feeling behind those words...
The presure of a thousand eyes were on me,threatening to suffocate me.
...doesn't suit someone like me,
Ambrosia F
w-welcome to the hospital annual auction show!
[5 hours before the call]
Evie O
how did u get roped into wearing that sexy dress?
Evie O
didn't you already have,like a gazillion other things to do backstage?
Evie O
you look super uncomfortable up there,Ambrosia.
Ambrosia F
Manager was looking for a volunteer.I'm happy to help!
Ambrosia F
I just didn't realize the manager would ask me to change into that...
Evie O
or go on stage,I bet.you really took one for the fundraising team,didn't you?
Evie O
what'd you think of it,Dev?
Dev H
Does it matter what I think?
Dev H
Gotta take this,be right back.
Evie O
There he goes,being all shady again
Ambrosia F
I think my honey bear's being his usual cool self
Evie O
look,you two only started dating recently.you know it's possible he's seeing other girls at the same time,right?
Ambrosia F
He isn't like that
Evie O
Ambrosia,we've known each other since forever.I mean,I know you've known Dev even longer.....
Evie O
but i know guys.And guys don't tell girls everything.just look at what he's been doing!
Evie O
he keeps calling and texting someone he won't tell you about
Evie O
you tell me he's busy some weekends and won't tell you why either
Evie O
Not only that but a friend told me they saw him chatting up with another woman!
Evie O
These are all the signs of a cheater!
Ambrosia F
...your friend caught him speaking with you!
Ambrosia F
Have...I tease,but really,there are honestly many reasons to speak with another woman
Ambrosia F
after all,I can't reasonably expect him to avoid all his female classmates.
Evie O
Ambrosia...
you're too much of a sweetheart for your own good,you know that?can't you at least sit down with Dev and have a serious talk with him about it?
Ambrosia F
I trust my honey
Ambrosia F
oh!what time is it?
Ambrosia F
I need to pick up somethings from the market and the store.....
[3 hours before the call]
Ambrosia F
you really are a good man.
Ambrosia F
I'm quite lucky to have someone strong like you to help me carry everything!
Dev H
Right.what would you do without me?
Ambrosia F
it's pretty late,so I'm sure my two cousins are fast asleep by now
Dev H
you also ought to be fast asleep since it's so late.
Ambrosia F
Aha,well,I certainly will soon!
Ambrosia F
but if i was asleep,I would have missed out on the fun evening walk with you!
Ambrosia F
Hehe...forgive me if I've kept you out for too long.
Dev H
you don't need to feel bad about that.if anything,it's your cousins who owe me an apology
Dev H
when is it their turn to pull their weight around here and give you a break?
Ambrosia F
Mm...they always promise to make it up to me in the near future.
Ambrosia F
but if you're busy,I don't really mind...
Dev H
I don't know what they could possibly be doing.
Dev H
something on your mind?
Ambrosia F
oh!I was just wondering if what I make at the hospital is enough.
Ambrosia F
grandmother will need more of her medication soon,and the dryer broke recently,so we'll have to get that fixed...
Ambrosia F
I wonder if i should find another part-time job,but with school,would there be enough time in the week.....?
Dev H
it wouldn't be a problem if you need me to loan you some money.
Ambrosia F
Hm...it is tempting to let you play the dashing hero,but oh,you really shouldn't said that.
Ambrosia F
what if I'm never be able to pay you back?
Ambrosia F
Hehe...besides-
Ambrosia F
I would like to try earning it with my own hands first.
Ambrosia F
now,if something were to take a turn for the worse...I wonder,would you be a terribly cruel debtor?
Dev H
you really think I could be any worse than what you're already putting up with?
Dev H
but in all seriousness,I really don't care if you can't pay me back
Dev H
it's not like I've ever expected much from you.
(yes,my honey was his usual cool self as always)
[2 hours before the call]
(ah,it would be nice to sleep)
(my honey helped me put away everything I bought.I already finished washing the dishes but...I still need to study for an upcoming test.....)
(i can do this!just focus!)

CH.2
three years ago,I read an article.
it's said that "suicide" was one of the top search words late at night.
when I picked up the phone,I was too tired to even glance at the caller id
However,nothing in the world could have prepared me for what comes next.
I never thought I would meet someone so close to the edge like this.
.
this is the suicide hotline.....yes?
this is a man who was trying to call the suicide hotline!
a man who wants to kill himself!
should i tell him it's the wrong number?
*heart's beating fast*ba-bum ba-bum
I don't want to mislead him.....
*bite lips**tremble*
.
.
.
*takes a deep breath*
Ambrosia F
I'm sorry but this isn't it.
Ambrosia F
T-the suicide hotline,I mean.but I can give you the right number,sir...
.
Hehe...yes.this was clearly a sign that I should not have called
if he hangs up now,will he-
.
hm?oh,is this about what I said earlier?
.
Hehe...do not worry,that was a joke.
that really didn't sound like a joke!
it sounds more like you want me to forget everything,but after something like this,how can i....?!
but if i call him out on it,he'll only run away...
Ambrosia F
oh,yes!you.....you really gave me quite a fright.
Ambrosia F
since you did,I'd like you to make it up to me.
please don't hang up
please don't hang up
please don't hang up
he sounds amused...I think that's a good sign?
it sounds like he has an accent-French,I think?
I could ask about it-
No,what if he thinks that's rude?
would he even feel comfortable talking about himself?
what am I supposed to say in this kind of situation?....
I work part-time as a hospital aide....
(at the very least,this is my duty to another human being)
Ambrosia F
you...woke me up in the middle of the night.it'll be hard for me to return to sleep...
Ambrosia F
it'd be nice if you could talk to me until I do.
.
Heh...sure...Shall i sing you a lullabye?
(he seems fairly good humoured....
I'm glad)
Ambrosia F
Hah....sing me a lullabye,read me a story, anything you please!
.
O mistress mine,where are you roaming?
O stay and hear,your true love's coming!
That can sing both high and low...
Trip no further,pretty sweeting.
journey ends in lovers' meeting...
(is that all?he isn't saying anything else...)
Ambrosia F
oh!I recognize that one,it's from Shakespeare isn't it?
Ambrosia F
my English class went over that recently
.
oh,you are still awake?hehe...
I'll never sleep as long as it keeps you alive!
but is that all i can do?
just keep talking to him?
Will that be enough.....?
.
yes.it is a romantic one,is it not?
if only my journey could end in lovers' meeting...
I'll take this opportunity to encourage him!
Ambrosia F
oh,you never know!it could be just around the corner.
Ambrosia F
Journeys can be long and full of hardships...
...but with perseverance,you can overcome them!
Ambrosia F
if it's even too much,just take a friend...
(he isn't saying anything)
(ohh my goodness,did I make a mistake?)
(oh,good...
...he answered)
.
it would be nice if i had anyone like that.
It sounds like he's smiling,but what he's saying doesn't seem happy....
Ambrosia F
W-what do you mean?
.
if the journey ever gets too much,take as friend,you said...
.
there is no one like that for me.
there is no one who loves me...
.
I am alone.it is what happens when you are so far from home....and you've only ever made enemies
.
but you might say I deserve that much.I do not deserve to have any journey end in lovers' meeting
Ambrosia F
oh,what makes you say that?
.
hmm...tell me.have you ever been in debt before?
(grandmother has taken loans to pay for my cousin's school fee and mine...)
sometimes I think it would be better to quit school and look for a full-time job
(it would certainly be less of a drain on our funds)
.
it is an unpleasant burden,to be sure.
.
but do not be in such a hurry to be rid of it
it was as if he read my mind.
is he speaking from experience?
I'd like to ask,but I almost feel like he's being vague on purpose
otherwise,he would have gone into greater detail.
just to be safe,I'll give a fairly playful answer.
Ambrosia F
Do you have any other words of wisdom for me,sir?
.
you shouldn't talk to strangers.
(he sounds like he's teasing again,but I feel like there's a grain of truth in it)
like in the tale of little red riding hood...
You can never be sure who's the wolf in disguise.
Ambrosia F
we don't have to be strangers!
Ambrosia F
why don't you tell me your name?
.
oh,that would normally make me very happy to hear.
.
but if you want us to be more than strangers...then,you must do this for me.
.
when I told you that I was joking,when I told you that I am fine now,you do not believe me...do you?
.
that is why you are talking to me and you keep talking to me,isn't that right?
