Kayla:

Ramona:
I just thought you needed to hear what yourself for you to finally realise how ridiculous you sound.
Kayla:
Go back to being irrelevant.
Odessa:
Relax guys. I’m sorry Kay I can’t take that coffee.
Kayla:
But why?
Odessa:
Because last time, you drugged me. And tied me up.
Ramona:

Kayla:
I was protecting you.
Ramona:
From what, exactly?
Kayla:
There was a storm outside and she wanted to go home in it.
Odessa:
It was a drizzle.
Ramona:
Kayla, are you unhinged or just plain stupid.
Kayla:
Both
Odessa:
Come Ramona, let’s go. By Kay.
Ramona:
Why are you still friends with her?!
Odessa:
I tried leaving and she knew where I was in the span of 48 hours.
Ramona:
You’re wealthy, buy her off.
Odessa:
Shes as rich as us.
Flash forward: August 2012
Kayla:
Odessa, I’ve liked you for years-
Ramona:
SIIIIIGGGGHHHHHH
Kayla:
IS THERE AN ISSUE?!
Ramona:
This is the SEVENTH TIME you’ve asked her out THIS YEAR. I have booked multiple ENT checkups for you but you still can’t hear the word no.
Odessa:
Kayla, If this is a confession, I have to reject it again.
Kayla:
But Odessa-
Ramona:
Im afraid she’s not made it abundantly clear, so let me sum it up. NO.
Kayla:
Okay, let’s go get some food.
Ramona:
No.
Odessa:
C’mon Ramona. It’s not that deep. Let’s just go. Please?
Ramona:
Very well. But I drive. My car.
Kayla:
Agreed. I’ll sit behind.
Flashforward: 1 week later.
Ramona:
Who put me here?! Rest assured I will get them and put them so deep in debt they’re grandchildren won’t be able to buy dignity.
Odessa:
Kayla.
while you were driving, she knocked you out with a syringe she got from- I don’t really know. And jumped into the front seat where I was trying to do damage control.
She swerved the car and it crashed. End of story.
Ramona:
Whers that desperate little thing now?
Odessa:
She got arrested, whole way to the cop car she kept screaming about how ill love her now that you’re gone and some jack.
The little idiot used salted water and she didn’t even inject you fully, so I don’t even KNOW why you passed out.
Ramona:
Oh, I saw her in the rear view mirror and I’m terribly scared of needles.
Odessa:
oh. Anyway, her parents refused to pay bail because they said she was far too spoiled. She got I think 15 years. On multiple charges. She’s been stalking others too.
Ramona:
15 years of peace. I’ve never been happier.
Flashforward: TODAY.
Odessa:
I sit on the bed and wonder how the HELL Kayla got out early. And what on earth does she mean by she’s coming?! To who? To where? To what?!
I need to find Ramona, and buy chicken. Come to think of it I haven’t seen my usual waiter around that shop. I wonder how she’s doing.
FOCUS Odessa, Missing wife, Crazy fan, grumbling stomach. Im going to eat. Enough madness for one lifetime.
