Mia #789: I'm an Adult!
Mia
Hmm…
Mia
Who's that? Just when I finally managed to focus…
Mia
Hang on, I'm coming.
[Fade in/out.]
Eli
There you are, Mia.
Mia
Oh, Eli? What're you doing here?
Eli
I came for the meeting to discuss our next live show.
Mia
Huh? Was that meeting today? Oh, shoot! I'm super late for it!
Eli
Actually, we just finished.
Mia
What?! Why didn't you contact me?!
Eli
I tried to call you a number of times.
Mia
Oops… Now I see the notifications. I didn't even notice.
Eli
Make sure you don't forget next time.
Mia
Ugh… I won't. But I couldn't help it. I was just about to come up with a great new song.
Eli
I had a feeling it was something like that. But I was still worried, so I thought I'd better check on you.
Eli
Anyway, this place sure is a mess. There are pizza boxes and soda bottles everywhere.
Mia
Meh, I don't feel like cleaning right now.
Eli
I can help you clean. I'll go home once I'm done.
Mia
Hey, hold up. You don't need to do that!
Eli
But I want to do it, Mia. When I look at you, I can't help but think of Alisa.
Mia
Alisa? Your little sister?
Eli
Yes. I guess I sort of see you as a little sister. I can't leave you to do everything all by yourself.
Mia
Hey! I'm an adult, thank you very much. Don't treat me like a child!
