[[Sorry. Been having a crazy past couple of days. Post incoming...]]
John just sits there and stares at her as she goes off on a tirade at him, while still missing the point entirely. He wasn't looking for sympathy, but also not looking for advice. He wasn't interested in 'tough love' or anything like that. And yet, she still managed to provide all of that without actually hearing anything he was actually saying.
So when she calls for his attention again, he just blinks a few times, then shakes his head clear.
"Oh, no it's fine. I'm fine. It's just that I don't think you get me. I don't think you get what I'm trying to say at all. I guess I'll talk to you later. I don't want to be standing in the hallway like this for much longer. See ya, Ashley."
And he just closes the door gently and walks back to his broken bed and grabs a pair of pants for the coming day.
