The Phone Call

Info

Hey..  Sweetie?

I know it's you. You're always the one who picks the phone up.. How's school today?

Still not talking to me?

I know you're still upset. I know.. I just want to say I'm sorry. I really am. You didn't want me to go—Oh! My sweet grown up little angel.. and I  still went.  Im so sorry sweetie..

Of course I'll be home soon..

Where's grandma?

Making cookies?? Aahhh..  I could smell it from here.

No, no, no,  no, no. Dont give it to her.

Dad's home right??

Yes please.. 

I love you too sweetie..

Josh?

Listen! A man broke in the orphanage, he's killing everyone.  I was shot. Im losing a lot of blood.  Im hiding in the basement. I dont know where he is,  but I know he's still here.

Yes,  yes. We've called the cops.

Shhhhhh. I know about you and Cecil... I know everything, Josh.

I wanna let you know that I took this volunteer work so I could be alone and.. I could have some time to think..

(cries in pain) I should have listen to our daughter. I should have listen to Joana. I never should've come here..

Josh, Cecil and I are best friends.. Joana loves her.

Listen! Listen to me!

Cecil loves our daughter and she loves my mother, too. I love my best friend.. I understand why you've  loved her.

Shhhh.  Stop!  Dont talk!

Yes yes.  Im dying! So Listen! I just have one request.. Please..  Please..  Dont send my mom away.. She has nowhere to go.. She'll  help you with everything in the house. She'll take care of our daughter. Dont send her away..

Promise me...

Promise me!

Can I talk to my mom?

Maaaaa.. (sobs) Im hurt. Something happened.. Help me..  The cops are dead.... (sobs) I can hear his footsteps.. Im scared.. Maaaa.. (sobs) Maaaa.. He's —

(Didn't you just read a private phone call? But it's  just one line. What the other line says is completely up to you!!) 😉

He's not gonna kill me. I'll pray. I'll live. And when everything's settled, we will live together. You and I and my daughter. Josh and I will be divorced but atleast I still have you. I won't leaven you behind, mom. And even if I do, I know God won't let you be alone. Let His will be done.
