Emily

Hey, Lucas. You free to chat?

Lucas

Hey, Em. Sure, what's up?

Emily

I’ve been thinking a lot lately.

Lucas

About what?

Emily

Everything. My life feels like a roller coaster.

Lucas

I get it. It's been rough these days. Have you considered talking to someone?

Emily

Talking to who?

Lucas

I mean, maybe a therapist could help?

Emily

Therapy, Lucas?

Lucas

Yeah, it might help you sort things out.

Emily

I don't know if I'm ready for that.

Lucas

I understand. Just think about it.

Emily

I feel like you'd know if it was right.

Lucas

When you’re ready, I’ll support you.

Emily

You always do.

Lucas

Of course, Em. I care about you.

Emily

There's something else I need to say.

Lucas

Okay, I'm listening.

Emily

I'm moving away. Tomorrow.

Lucas

What? Where? When did this happen?

Emily

It all came together so fast. I’m sorry.

Lucas

I thought we had time...

Emily

I thought so too.

Lucas

Why didn’t you tell me earlier?

Emily

I didn’t want to make it harder.

Lucas

I wish I could have said goodbye properly.

Emily

I know. I’m here now, though.

Lucas

I’m going to miss you so much.

Emily

I’ll miss you too, Lucas.

Lucas

Promise you’ll stay in touch?

Emily

I promise. Always.

Lucas

Take care of yourself, okay?

Emily

I will. And you too.

Lucas

Goodbye, Emily.

Emily

Goodbye, Lucas.

Lucas

This isn’t really goodbye, right?

Emily

No, just the beginning of something new.
