Kelly calls Josh early in the morning, waking him up with her cheerful voice. They chat for a while, sharing small talk about life, and Josh is reminded of the strange connection they’ve shared for a while—both of them have eerily realistic, almost shared dreams. Kelly talks about her plans, expressing her passion for becoming a counselor someday, and how she wants to help others the way she wishes she could’ve been helped.
As the conversation flows naturally, it’s easy to forget where Kelly is calling from. Just as Josh starts to relax, there’s a sudden pause, and Kelly says, “I have to go—they’re doing count.” It’s only then that reality hits—Kelly is calling from prison, and the brief, warm moment is cut short by the strict prison security policy. The call ends abruptly, leaving Josh staring at the phone, reminded of the distance between them despite how close they feel.
