No Phere!

“Are you taking me to an abandoned café?”

“Shut up, whore.”

“Whore? Am I getting paid for this?”

“Shut up!”

“Is that supposed to say, ‘Fear?’ Are you illiterate?”

“It’s an intentional, creative misspelling.”

“That’s not creative. That’s dumb. At least I don’t have to worry about my body being found. Your dumb ass will probably post a TikTok.”

“Bitch, I will…”

“What? I’m not aphr8de of you. I spelled afraid ‘a-p-h-r-8-d-e,’ so you could understand.”

“You know what? Just go. You’re free.”

“Did you spell that ‘p-h-r-e?’”

“Just go!”

“You’re driving me.”

“I’m not gonna drive you. … Fine!”
