Caroline was hanging in the Grill when her phone rang. She let out a deep sigh when she noticed it was her boyfriend Matt. “Hey, Matt” she said. “Caroline, hi, I’m glad I can finally reach you” Matt replied. “What do te mean?” Caroline asked avoiding. It had been two days since she last spoke to him and she had very consciously ‘missed’ his calls. “Is something wrong? Are te breaking up with me? Because if te do I really think te should have the guts to say it in my face” Matt ranted. “Matt, shut up!” Caroline said. “I am not breaking up with you, okay? Who gave te that impression?” “Well, te did” Matt said. “You’re recitazione very… distant lately and I’m wondering why” “I’m hooked into something, I can’t explain it” Caroline detto hesitating. “Can’t te try? During lunch, maybe?” Matt suggested. “Maybe. Can I call te back on that?” Caroline asked. “Promise te will” Matt said. “Okay, I promise” Caroline detto and she ended the conversation.
“Boyfriend issues, huh?” the girl successivo to her at the bar said. Caroline turned around to view the clearly underage girl drinking beer. And it wasn’t the first one. “You know it’s rude to eavesdrop a conversation you’re not part of” The girl drank from her beer. “I wasn’t eavesdropping. te really need to lower your voice a bit” “You shouldn’t be drinking. You’re a minor” Caroline detto cold. The girl laughed. “Okay, yeah, I’m a minor, but that doesn’t make te my legal guardian, te know. And don’t take your problems with Matt out on me” Caroline’s mouth dropped open from unbelief. “I’m not taking anything out on anyone. God, why am I even talking to you?” she muttered, più to herself than the girl. She walked away, the girl watching her leave.
