Neta: Mahi get the hell up!!

Mahi: shit I'm waiting for work! I'm sorry please don't kick my as- oh I'm awake..... Haha I thought I was having that weird dream when I'm late for work and you come over and jump me.

Neta: well if you keep laying there in bed that dream might come true. Get up so I can put the bed in the truck....... Got me up at 6:00 a.m. packing up your shit.

Mahi: right.... Where's Warabi

Neta: at work..... Okay baja on three okay?

Baja: ok

Neta: 1... 2..... 3 ugh....

Baja: ugm

Mahi: so what do you guys want me to do?

Baja: Neta came early so we got most of the expensive stuff. We just need the little boxes they're in the kitchen.

Mahi: right. I'll get to it

Neta: alright let's go before my back gives out. I never truly healed after someone let me fall off a ladder

Mahi: you still mad at that?!

Baja: It's a good thing we're lifting with their legs

_______________________________________________

Neta: I don't understand why you two only have one bed. So it was just you and Warabi sleeping in the same bed?

Mahi: Yeah

Neta: and where did Baja sleep

Baja: I slept on the floor.

Neta: you slept on the floor!?!? Mahi!

Mahi: what?! We gave him a pillow and a blanket! What It's not like he was complaining

Neta: *sigh*....... I'm not going to get into it. Let's just get the shit done. Baja where does Warabi want his dresser.

Baja: oh... Uh... Give me a second..................... Hey Warabi where do want your dresser and other furniture......................are you sure?...... Ok..... ... .. .he wants to throw it away

Neta:................ To throw it away?......... He wants me to throw away the stuff that I spent an hour yesterday putting in the truck and driving here? ...........He wants me to throw it away? ...........Is that what he wants?...

Baja: yeah.

Neta:....................... Give me the phone.

Baja: are you sure you look a little upset I don't want-

Neta: GIVE ME THE PHONE!

Baja: ok

Neta:.... I'll take this outside

[muffled] (Neta yelling at Warabi through the phone)

Mahi: hahahahah oh he's pissed hahahahaha

Baja: hmmm.... How are you so calm about this. I don't think he's going to help us after this

Mahi: Oh Don't worry, he will.. just....... just give him a moment hehehehehe.

Baja: oh.

Neta: there's nothing wrong with the fucking furniture! You don't need to buy new stuff every minute! I don't give a fuck about your aesthetic!! This stuff is perfectly fine, you want it to look different paint it! Well you know what your father is right because you do spend too much money on shit you don't need when you already have stuff that's perfectly fine!.................. No!............ You don't need a new mixer, you don't even bake........ That's different......... YOU CAN FIGURE OUT WHAT YOU NEED AFTER WE UNPACK EVERYTHING. YOU'RE SO QUICK TO BUY SHIT YOU DON'T NEED........... I'm not being mean I...... I'm getting another call and I'll call you back in a second. Hey babe what's up?

Ikkan: I'm just checking in on you. Are you okay?

Neta: Yeah, I'm fine. Why what's wrong?

Ikkan: I got a notification on my phone from your fluxcon. Your blood sugar is at 275 are you sure?

Neta: ugh! Yes I'm fine. You called me for that?!

Ikkan: okay you're a little irritable. Why don't you go for a small walk to clear your head and get it a little down. Ok?

Neta:...........

Ikkan: please

Neta:.......... Ok

Ikkan:mmmmm I love you

Neta: I love you too.... Bye. ... ......* Inhale* .....* Exhale* .... I'm going to go out for a bit. You two unpack what you can. I'll be back in 30 minutes.

Baja: hi Neta Your back. That was a short walk.

Neta:........... are you serious..... Baja come downstairs I need to talk to you outside...... Mahi get off the couch and set up the TV or something I don't know do something

Mahi: *sigh* alright

_______________________________________________

Baja: so... Is something wrong

Neta: I don't think this living arrangement is going to work without some sort of changes happening. I like Mahi They're a good kid. That being said, you need to stand up to them and-

Baja: I don't think it's going to work out either.

Neta: hm?

Baja: I just........*Voice cracked* I don't know..... I don't know what I'm doing *crying* I never did.... I-I just do whatever someone tells me to do. My parents, my teachers, my superiors. Everyone and I never do whatever I want cuz I never know what I want!

Neta: ok ok let's sit down Where's all this coming from?

Baja: *crying* I'm sorry..... I feel so dumb. I am dumb. That's why I'm in this position now cuz I don't know how to say no and I don't know how to express what I want........ Now I'm in the military because my step dad kicked me out of the house. I have to do stupid missions and drills.... I'm in a city I know nothing about.....I'm in a relationship I'm not really ready for.

Neta: ........hmm

Baja: *sniff* heh yeah ....... I like Warabi...... I just don't like Warabi. I thought the longer I stayed in the relationship, I'd feel something but I didn't and I don't....*huff*.... Now I'm moving in with him!....*huff*.... and he wants to..we have to live together.....I-I I I'm not ready to- I don't even want to do... I don't like-.*crying* .............. it's too much!!! *Sobbing*

Neta: ok ok come here, come here let's just take a breather.... Get our thoughts together.

Baja: *sobbing*

(30 minutes late)

Baja:.............*sniff*...............

Neta: how old are you?

Baja: I'm 21 turning 22 next month

Neta: where are you from?

Baja: octo valley..we moved after my Dad died...... not like the really bad parts it was in the suburbs.... not like the canons just... just regular home with other tetras.. I went to an octarian school tho most of my life. Very strict..

Neta: Yeah I know I got expelled form two of them hehehe

Baja: hehe.......*sniff*..... I think I'm better now.... I just need to..you know.......

Neta: okay *sigh* What do you want to do?

Baja:...... Uh...... I I........*sigh* I don't know.... I don't want them to be mad at me I don't Warabi to hate-

Neta: I know It's difficult... Sometimes you have to put your wants and needs first.......you shouldn't feel bad about that.

Baja: you packed and brought everything here I wouldn't want you to

Neta: that doesn't matter right now, I don't matter in the situation. What matters right is you. Do you want to move out? I can find a nice cheaper apartment or you can try to figure something out with them setting some boundaries maybe. It's up to you It's time for you to make your own decisions no one else can do it for you not this time.

Baja:......................

Neta: we can sit here as long as you need to if they have something to say they can say it to me.

_______________________________________________

Warabi: wow, it's almost done.

Mahi: yeah no thanks to Neta and Baja. They left me here with all this work. You know when I agreed to have him here I expected for him to do most of the work while we paid bills

Warabi: Mahi he's your roommate and my boyfriend he's not your personal butler. Man We did not have a lot of furniture Like I told Neta. Hm ..... Where is he anyway?

Mahi: hell if I know. They left an hour ago

Neta: sorry about that you just needed a break..... Baja you wanted to say something to Warabi.

Baja: Warabi we need to talk... Uh... It's..... It's about.... Um..... Uhh

Warabi: Wait before you say anything I had to show her bedroom. You're going to love this.

Baja: ummm.. oookkkk...

Warabi: okay so I know it looks cursed right now having the bed in the center but hear me up so I was planning on putting bookshelves right here I know you have a lot of history books. Maybe a small music studio I have on my turntables. I also have this whole section for your little saxy phone maybe you can record some stuff for diss-pair I don't know We'll see what happens. Also I was thinking maybe putting the mirror right here, we don't have a walk-in closet, but I bought these little racks and we can put it right here next to the bathroom and-

Baja: Warabi I don't think this is going to work out I think we should break up.

Warabi: huh?

Baja: I've been feeling like this for a while and I need to tell you that I'm not ready to have these type of relationships I thought I did but I don't It's not you It's me I'm just not compatible with you and I feel like you would be so much better with someone who can meet your needs and your lifestyle I understand if you're angry at me and I understand if you don't want me to be here anymore

Mahi: is he breathing?

Neta: no... I don't think he is

Warabi:...................................

Baja: Am I allowed to?

Warabi: yeah! You're still allowed to be here babe uh Baja... Why don't you stay downstairs, have your own little room and Mahi and I can share the loft? Sound good?

Mahi: sure but the bed is going to be against the wall like a normal person.

Baja: yeah ok pops...umm!!
