Indisposed? [ A long pause while she processes the word. She knows what it means, but she has no clue what it implies. Finally, she lets it go, a frown audible in her voice. ] But you're okay now? You're not sick or something?

[reiterated]

Not at all. [ Pause. ] Next time, just pop by. You know where I live, don't you?

[poetryslamming]

Yeah.

[ A long, deep intake of breath. She's calming herself down, breathe, Alexa, fucking breathe. ]

If it's not a problem, I could drop by later. Bring pizza. I'll order the meaty one just for you...

[reiterated]

Sounds delicious. [ Another pause. He has to think about sentences still. It'll pass, thank goodness. ] No need to bring your own coffee, though. I have coffee.

[poetryslamming]

[ Okay. That's good. He's got coffee in his house. His basement. Whatever. He's got it. ]

You know that writer's block I was banging my head against before you ghosted? It's lifted.

[reiterated]

No, really? Poor Alexa, you've been blue as blue can be - isn't it lovely? Producing?

[poetryslamming]

It's kinda like having pooped out the biggest turd after being constipated for a year. I've seriously lost two kilos or some shit.

[reiterated]

Pizza's exactly what the doc's ordered then, isn't it? Do remember to bring the results along.

[poetryslamming]

I've got a stack. Used one of them for the spoken word evening I was invited to the day before yesterday. [ U N S U R E. ] It's in your honor.

[reiterated]

Is it? [ She can probably hear the warmth in his voice now, it's pretty obvious. ] Then, it seems I owe you a dedication, my dear.

[poetryslamming]

I dig your rainbow-colored Mauer. If you need inspiration.

[reiterated]

I never do. Come by, read and eat, and I'll make you something that matches the rest.

[poetryslamming]

Thanks. [ She means it. ] See you in a bit, Timm.

[reiterated]

See you.

[ call ended. ]
