*ring ring ring ring ring*
*pick up* Hello?
*sounds of crying*
Hello? Who is this?
*sounds of sobbing*
….******* is that you?
Yes *more crying*
What’s wrong?
My family, I hate them! *more crying*
Wait, why??
They don’t want me to marry you *sobbing*
Because I don’t have a green card?
Exactly…*sobbing trickles out*
But you know I don’t care about that?
I know, but they don’t care!
I don’t care that they don’t care, I love you.
I love you too, but I don’t know what to do.
Let’s get married.
What?
Let’s get married, today. I have a full tank of gas, a ring in my pocket. We’ll drive to Vegas and get married.
*returns to my reflection running on the treadmill*
