Chapter 2.18: August 1, 2017
"You know, you really need to get a better phone. Or move somewhere with better reception. Or a combination of both."
"I don't really have a way of doing that, Eru. Please don't do this now."
"Fine, fine. Beth's summer classes are ending on Thursday. I'm joining her, Mik, and Tommy for dinner."
"Have fun—but not too much."
"I don't see how you can have too much fun with a not-even-one-year-old-yet."
"I don't know…Those baby bottles can be pretty crazy."
"Dork."
"Your dork."
"How is it over where you are?"
"It's okay. Pretty dismal, but nothing worth writing home about."
"You could always come home and tell me."
"Eru, please stop pushing it."
"…I'm sorry."
"So, Beth's summer classes are ending. When does the fall term start?"
"End of August, I believe."
"So that means your little break from school will have lasted a little over a year and seven months."
"Aren't you ever so observant?"
"You bet I am. Do you think you'll be able to make up for lost time?"
"I'm planning on reviewing my old notes next week."
"By all means."
"Kenny?"
"What is it, my princess?"
"I'm sorry to bring this up again, but I don't think I can live without you."
"You haven't lost me yet. You're probably just tired. Let's get you to bed now, yeah?"
"I miss you, Kenny. I miss you so, so much. I really don't think I can do this without you."
"Have heart, my princess, for I am in yours. I miss you, too."
"G'night, Kenny. Love you."
"G'night, Eru. I love you."
