Drabble: Some Friend

Some Friend

“Hello?”

“Hey, Diamonds, it’s Rose.”

“Oh, hey, Rose! How’ve you been? Wanna come party on Friday?”

“Afraid I’m not going to be able to make it Friday. Actually, I have a little bit of a big favor to ask -- feel free to say no.”

“Go ahead,” he says, though I can hear the hesitation in his voice.”

“See, I’m moving across town, and--”

“Hey, I’d love to help, but I’ve been super busy, and my back’s been acting up, so yeah, see you later.” Click.

That song’s such a lie. A girl’s best friend would at least help her move.
