Konobonwa! <3

So. I MAY have had a conversation with Phil this afternoon.

* * *

A NAKED conversation. About matters of mutual interest.

* * *

Strangely enough, the nudity was largely incidental. <3

Hello?

* * *

Noriko-san?

* * *

Are you ignoring me?

* * *

I know you're not happy now, but I swear I had the best possible intentions!

* * *

I didn't want this to turn into a thing that dragged on for months and months and never achieved any sort of resolution.

* * *

Phil wasn't even that weird about it!

* * *

Well, he was pretty weird. But not in a bad way! Just a typical Phil kind of way.

* * *

When you think about it, I'm sure you'll realize everybody being on the same page isn't a bad thing.

* * *

Think of it as an opportunity!

* * *

Hello?

* * *

Okay. You need time. I understand completely.

* * *

I probably deserve it.

* * *

It's only natural, after all. Really, though, it's not THAT bad.

* * *

I'm confident it will all work out for the best.

* * *

But a disaster, this is certainly not.

* * *

More of a re-evaluation.

* * *

You should talk to Phil, if you don't want to talk to me.

* * *

You'll see. At the end of the day, nothing's really changed.

* * *

Okay. I'll let you have some Noriko Time. Work things out.

* * *

When you're ready to talk, we can talk.

* * *

Bonne nuit.
