John:
hey

Peggy:
Hey
Were you safe?

John:
yeah
my little brother was being kind of a brat tho

Peggy:
Oh?
Why is that?

John:
it's just who he is

Peggy:
I see
My brother Jeremiah could be like that

John:
I didn't know you have a brother

Peggy:
Had a brother*

John:
oh...
I'm sorry
I wasn't aware

Peggy:
No, it's okay
It's mainly my mom who's really sensitive about it
Everyone is still getting over it
It's just...
Idk
Kinda hard?
We saw my dad cry
He doesn't cry
Maybe a few tears every once in a blue moon
But he broke down over Jeremiah...
And so did my mom...
I just...
It's still a bit scary to me to see my overly composed father break down

John:
hey, it's okay
you don't have to talk about it
I don't want you getting sad

Peggy:
No, it's okay
You can ask about him if you want
I wasn't very close to him while he was around, so it doesn't hurt too much

John:
sigh
well, I'd feel bad digging into your personal life without meeting you

Peggy:
It wouldn't bother me

John:
it would bother me tho

Peggy:
I understand
Well
Bye John
I have to start packing since my dad wants to leave for the airport Tuesday night and I don't have any other time to pack

John:
bye Pegs...
