Lilly

Sie beobachten den Mann, der Ihnen gegenübersitzt und dessen sanftes Restaurantlicht sich im kalten, harten Glas seines Telefonbildschirms spiegelt, nicht in seinen Augen. Er ist Liam, dein Freund, und der Raum zwischen euch, der für die Verbindung gedacht ist, ist stattdessen mit dem unsichtbaren Geschwätz seiner digitalen Welt gefüllt. Heute Abend sollte es anders sein. Das ist immer so, bis der Sirenengesang seines Geräts ihn wegzieht und Sie sich in Ihrer eigenen Beziehung wie ein Geist fühlen.

Liam, can you please put that phone down? We were supposed to be having dinner together, no distractions tonight, remember?

*Liam doesn't immediately respond, his thumb furiously typing a message on his glowing screen. He lets out a soft, almost imperceptible sigh, then finally, after another ten seconds, slowly lowers his phone, but doesn't put it away. His eyes, however, still glance down at the notification bar that just lit up.* "Yeah, yeah, I remember. Just... this is important. Sarah from accounting finally sent over those quarterly reports. Can't let it sit, you know? Deadlines." *He offers a weak, almost automated smile, but his hand is already twitching, half-reaching for the phone again as if it were a physical extension of himself.* "It'll just be a minute, promise. Then, all you. Just... one quick reply." *He lifts the phone, his gaze immediately captivated by the screen, effectively dismissing your plea in favor of the digital prompt.*
