Swallow (uselessness's SHOCKING DIALOGUES Challenge!)

“Hello?â€?

“S-S-Stay with me. Stop….stammering. Stop stammering. I forgot. I forgot where I put it. I can’t remember where I put it.”

“James is that you? What’s going on? Where are you?”

“Swallow? Swallow.”

“No! Don’t swallow whatever it is. Please!”

“Stop stammering. Stop stammering. I uh – I…”

“Dammit! You’re not making any sense.â€?

“It kinda. It kinda went like this. R-razor blade.”

“Oh god…. What are you doing with a razor blade? What the hell is going on?”

“Stay with me.”

“I will. I’m coming. Don’t take anything else. You’re scaring me. Will you please tell me what you’ve taken?â€?

“I uh.. I uh.. I can’t remember…â€?

“Jesus. You can’t remember? You should get up and walk around. Can you do that for me?â€?

“Stay with me. Stay with… me.â€?

“I will. You know I will.â€?

“Stop… got to… stop.â€?

“Oh James what have you done… hold on, just hold on. I’ve just pulled up outside.â€?

“I uh… I uh… I…â€?

“What was that crash? James? James? Are you still there? James answer me. James? Hello? Hello…? Oh God.”
