What’s the matter Leanne.

Like I didn't know. 

Nothing. Nothing's the matter.

Everything. Everything’s the matter. All the time. 

What is it Leanne. Tell me.

You need to say it Leanne. 

Nothing. It’s fine.

I have to put my toe in the water first. 

What’s fine. What does that mean, it’s fine.

I am a problem solver. 

It’s fine if you want to spend the entire night not talking to me. It's fine.

I feel like I have a hole inside. It feels like I've been shot. 

Look. It was a party. You talk to people. You mingle.

Every time. Every time Leanne. 

The way you talk to Sheila. That’s not mingling.

It never goes away. And it never closes. 

You want us to be inseparable, is that what you want.

I don’t understand and it makes me angry.

It would be nice if once in awhile, you paid some attention to me.

I thought you understood. And it makes me sad.

How many times have we been here, when does it end.

Where do you go where do you run to Leanne.

Nevermind. It’s fine. Forget it.

Always. Never. When the bleeding stops, that’s when.
