One-Inch Bubbles

Dawn.

"You loved my text messages from last night."

"Um. Actually, I didn't know what was happening.
I had to go back and read the bubble I sent you.
All I asked you was whether or not you walked
after school, and then I got five one-inch bubbles."

"I know. I was really tired and sensitive."

"I know. That's why I just said, "Okay" and "Sorry."
But you were also writing so fast. I couldn't
respond, even if I wanted to."
