This girl, Abby texted the group chat to tell us something bad happened to our friend Ella, that her mom sent a message saying she collapsed and fainted.
It had been several hours, and Abby said Ella hasn’t woken up yet, according to her mother.
I was worried, vented to my family about it, and tried calling her number. It appeared her phone had been turned off.
Later, Ella told me and her BF Michael that it was a prank and that her phone was off because she was on a plane. She was bored and thought no one would care if she was in an actual coma.
I was relieved and Michael was rightfully pissed.
That story is red-flag-city.
So weird that she would do that…
Are you guys younger? I can see a teenager doing this without fully thinking of the ramifications
15 :)
That sounds about right. Some people develop empathy quicker than others, could be a valuable learning experience for her.
