ITSAY/I promised you the moon ( The story doesn’t work without ALL THE TEXTS) ,
OLD FASHION CUPCAKE ( when the future lovers are both waiting for a text episode)
The eighth sense ( The messages JH sent over and over to JW)
in my hall of fame of stories where cell phones/ texts carry a HUGE emotional weight . Just punching me in the « too close to home » part of my belly. This was so so well done. The last message being « Take your time » when they both stare at that screen for days ! Possibly weeks since the timeline is always voluntarily blurry. Jeng reaching for his phone to text Pat when he is upset about his father. Pat asking Boo not to text him then WAITING FOR HIM TO TEXT ? Plus Jeng breaking AND DOUBLE TEXTING. In English because that’s THEIR thing ?
