UNKNOWN: My name is Chase Harrington.
MACIE: Like that actor from that new superhero film that got all the young girls crazy according to Entertainment Today?
UNKNOWN: Yeah. They say I look like him too.
MACIE: Wow. Good for you, I guess?
MACIE: Well, pleased to meet you, Chase Harrington.
UNKNOWN: Pleased to meet you too, Marceline Conway.
UNKNOWN: Do you have something against Chase the actor, by any chance?
MACIE: Not really. I just don't like boys who are too good looking. They tend to be players who break lots of hearts.
UNKNOWN: You're stereotyping and being prejudiced against men who are better looking than some. You know that, right?
MACIE: Maybe.
MACIE: But you can't really blame me since I've met a handful of them and they all turned out to be the same.
MACIE: Anyway, what about school? Are you still studying or are you already working?
UNKNOWN: I didn't go to college, I went straight to work after I graduated from high school a few years ago.
UNKNOWN: I wanted to have the whole college experience though...
MACIE: Why can't you go to college now? Does your work demand all your time?
UNKNOWN: Sometimes.
MACIE: That must suck.
UNKNOWN: There are times when it does.
UNKNOWN: Maybe if I'm no longer too busy, I'll enroll for a class or something...
MACIE: You should, if you really want to. Life's too short to spend it pondering on the "what ifs" and the "shoulda, woulda, coulda".
MACIE: But, you know, college parties are overrated so you're not really missing much.
MACIE: I guess. Maybe.
MACIE: I don't really know. I haven't been to one.
UNKNOWN: WHAT?!
UNKNOWN: You haven't been to a college party? Why?
UNKNOWN: Isn't that like a requirement to graduate or something?
UNKNOWN: Are your grades okay? I worry about you...
MACIE: Haha. You're funny.
UNKNOWN: You think so too, huh? ;)
MACIE: Hey, Chase?
UNKNOWN Yeah?
MACIE: They said we can go inside the apartment building now...
UNKNOWN: Will you be okay?
MACIE: Yeah. I'm just a little scared. What if the fire took all that I have left?
UNKNOWN: You know, life's too short to spend it pondering on the "what ifs"
MACIE: Whoever said that is a genius. :)
UNKNOWN: I think so too. :)
UNKNOWN: Text me right after you've made it inside?
UNKNOWN: I want to make sure you're okay.
MACIE: Okay. I will.
