Grad school sucks. That is my excuse.
We're winding down here. It's been a ride, and I'm so grateful for all your support and how many of you have stuck around for over a year to keep reading this. I really didn't think it would take off like it did. The original concept was much shorter, but thanks to your support, it really grew.
That said, I do think it's time for this to come to a close. I'll definitely be sad, but I think it's time.

Thanks everyone 3


Hey.
So we got something going on, but I don't really want to get into it because I'm paranoid, but I wanted to let you know. I think we're finally getting somewhere.

For real?

Yes.

I don't want to get your hopes up but this might be it.

Are you okay?

Yeah sorry
just

Kinda wrapping my head around it I guess

It's going to happen one way or another, I promise. Even if this isn't it.
Sorry I'll stop talking about "it" I know it's probably driving you crazy that you don't know.

How've you been?

It's been fine, like super boring actually

Well, that's a mixed blessing I suppose.

How's it over there?

Tense.
We're all tired and want this to be over.
I think it will be.
I mean I know it will be but

No I get it

And hey—I hate to be this way—but…

Strategic use of punctuation?
It's okay, whatever it is I can take it.

I'm sure you can, after all this you could probably take anything.

You know it
Okay so what's the bad news

We should probably stop texting for a while.
Just to be safe. We've gotten away with so much so far, I don't want to blow it in the last couple days.

Are you okay with that?

Rosa?

I just want to be careful.

I get it.

I'm sorry.

Don't be sorry

Right.

I have to go now.
We're going to get you out of there.

Do you believe me?

I believe that all of you are doing everything you can

We are. We won't stop. No matter how many times Hawkins gets the better of us.

What happened this time?

Right you said no more texting

Like starting now?

That's it?

You're not even going to say good-bye?

Okay.

Fine.
