Too Much To Ask For (Andrea and Lucas)

On her way back to her house, her cell phone rang.
Calling..
Private Caller

“Andrea?”
“yeah? who is this?” Andrea asked.
“You don’t recognize my voice?”
“uh no. And if you don’t tell me who this is, I’m gonna hang up!” Andrea threatened.
“Ok ok, I’ll tell you. Just promise you won’t hang up when I tell you who this is.”
“Promise.You’ve got 2 seconds to tell me.”
“Okay wow, Life’s made you meaner. It’s Kenny.”
silence
“Hello, you still there?” He asked.
“yeah yeah I’m here. Why are you calling me?”
“Can we meet up somewhere?” He asked.
“no. not after what you did to me.”
“Listen, I’m really sorry for all of that. I didn’t intend on any of that happening to you. You know that right?”
“No Kenny, I don’t know that. I’ve lost so much because of you. I’ve even lost friends because of you. And now I’m trying to rebuild my life, without you in it. Is that too much to ask for?” She said, beginning to cry but trying not to let it show in her voice.
