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.
