Sterling:I saw your editorial in UVI Voice 2.0

Danica:I didn’t think anyone read those

Sterling:I do

Sterling:I liked yours a lot

Sterling:Listen, I’m sorry to jump off, but I need to go

Sterling:Got a big statistics test tomorrow that I need to pull an all-nighter for

Sterling:But it was nice talking to you

Sterling:Really nice

Danica:It was nice talking to you too

1 day later

Danica:How was it?

Sterling:Might never recover

Sterling:Math and me ain’t never gonna see eye to eye

Danica:At least it’s over

Danica:You should get some sleep

Sterling:Already in bed

Sterling:Thanks for checking on me

3 hours later

Sterling:You up?

Danica:Shouldn’t you be sleeping?

Sterling:Can I ask you something?

Danica:Nothing good ever comes from that question

Sterling:Why did you agree to go out with me before?

Sterling:Don’t take this the wrong way but it seemed like you wanted to be anywhere and with anyone but me

Sterling:And like my gran used to say: you didn’t have two words to rub together

Danica:That’s not true! I talked

Sterling:One word answers only

Danica:Well you talked enough for both of us

2 minutes later

Sterling:You want the truth?
