*dial tone*
*inhale, exhale*
*familiar voice, soft smile*
"Hey, Stephen."
"Love, I'm a tiny bit busy right now. Closing a big recruitment deal."
*disappointed drop of smile, keeps tone light*
"Oh it's not important then."
"...tell me."
"Um...so I...don't know if we should be doing this on the phone."
"Then, can it wait until I get back at least?"
"...when will that be, Stephen?"
*pregnant pause on the other end*
"I don't know, Stephen...I just..."
"I know, I'm sorry. It's just...this is my career, Riley."
*sigh*
"I know. I don't even know how to do this but -"
"Maybe we should take a break."
*bites lip, runs hand through hair*
"What does that mean exactly?"
"...give each other a little bit of time apart."
"Oh...okay."
*silence on both sides*
"So are we breaking up?"
*sigh on the other end*
"If you want to."
"Um...I don't know..."
"You're a grown man, Riley. You'll figure it out. But for now, we'll just not call or text. If you've figured it out, maybe you let me know."
"You have some things left here still."
"...I'll come by to pick it up once I'm done here."
*deep inaudible inhale and exhale*
"Okay."
"Bye, babe."
"B...bye."
*dial tone*
