Borrowed Time
Girl loves boy. Boy loves himself. In these current times of self-gratification and greed, love is no longer the Holy Grail.
It's a desperate need to be accepted, validated. Love has become a stamp of approval.
Girl wants validation. Boy wants solitude. He borrows her for pleasure, for attention. She mistakes this for love.
During his borrowed time she finds her worth. Lost in her need to feel accepted, she cheats herself of the only true love out there.
Validating and acceptance of self. She feels she will finally get it when he doesn't call for days.
Then the phone rings and her borrowed time restarts.
