"Hey, this is Zuko, which you... hopefully already know if you're trying to contact me. Anyway, I'm not here right now, so... well, if you've got something important to say, leave a message and I'll get back to you."

That doesn't change the fact it's still none of your business. Let me set you straight anyway: I do tell her, but she's more than just a cute person. She's smart and thoughtful and she's a warm person. If you're her friend, then you already know that.

So unless you have something new to say, this conversation is over.

I do know that, but I was just worried that she didn't.

[And whatever, he can hang up on her. She'll just bug him again some other time when she thinks she needs to. Regardless if he thinks it's her business or not.]

If you're such a good friend, then you know why she has a hard time believing it. If you don't, it's not my place to tell you.

Okay, fine. But you still should tell her all the time. [beat.] And try to be less grumpy and making her worry about you.

[Because she's got your number dude and she'll be checking in on your girlfriend to see how you're doing.]

...Thanks for the advice.

[ The very, very unwarranted advice.

That's it. He's at his rope's end and it's clear he isn't getting through to her, so he disconnects. It's not enough to have his ex-girlfriend pull the "you're a terrible boyfriend AND a terrible ex-boyfriend" card. Now he has complete strangers doing the same thing. ]

You're welcome.

[And she didn't mean to say he was a terrible boyfriend! She would have apologized, but he didn't tell her that. BOYS. If they just said what they were thinking, Rinoa wouldn't do things like this!]
