Dialogue Words For Said Novels & Stories

His words were so fast, that it got me off guard, that I fucked up…big time “Not sure…. It depends” I said before I could think I said before I couod take my words back My words were like a open sentence, that was inviting a lot of things and he would be a fool if he didn’t get that one point “Get down” He instructed “What?” My eyes widened

I ask. This time— The answer comes. Not as a feeling. Not as a vague impression. Something clearer. Not words. But meaning. You came back. I freeze. The connection trembles. “Elara?” Adrian’s voice cuts through. “What just happened?” “It… spoke,” I say. Silence. Then— “No,” he says. “Yes.” “No,” he repeats. “We are not doing that again.” “It is not like before,” I say quickly. “How?” “It is clearer.”

The word rings through the room as they speak in unison. “Mate.”

He spoke. "Copy that" a voice replied back. . TBC

They're standing six inches apart and neither of them is breathing normally. "Thank you for the coffee shop," she says. Looking straight ahead. Not at him. "It's my job," he says. Looking straight ahead. Not at her. "The growling thing. The word you said." "I didn't say anything." "You said." "I didn't say anything, Sage. Let's go."

I sighed in frustration since I don't know how to phrase my words. "What I'm saying is," I said, looking into his eyes. "Can we talk?"

She finally spoke, her voice sounding smaller than usual. " Oh." I blinked severally, releasing the breath I didn't know I was holding. " Well, we can always get you another one." I said and gave her a half smile. Why do I constantly use the word *we*? " O-kay." She said, doing that thing that she does with her lip, again. " Could you stop doing that?" I didn't know when the words flew out of my mouth but by the time I did, it was already too late.

Curiosity sparked at what the context of their conversation might have been. “I need a word with you,” I said. “Now.”

- He says and I look at him now really annoyed - Are you calling me an animal!? - That's not what I meant. - Respond calmly - Oh, I know. "Civilized people resolve things in dialogue" - I say making quotes with my hands - Want to know something? People only learn the hard way, through fear. Words do not stick in the human mind, scars on the other hand will always be there to remember them, they reinforce a memory.

And I did. That was the point. The phone vibrated again. I looked down. “Speak.” One word. Simple. Clear. My jaw tightened. “Say what?” I asked. The reply came instantly. “Anything.” That didn’t make sense. Or maybe it did. Because it wasn’t about what I said. It was about the act itself. The signal. The confirmation. I lifted my head slightly. Looked straight ahead. And spoke. “I’m still here.” The words felt small.
