If you’re as clumsy as I am, you’ve probably dropped your phone so many times that it’s honestly a miracle it still turns on at all. No matter where I manage to drop it, I’ve always been able to retrieve it, but some of us aren’t so lucky.

Twitter user Liz Bertorelli, for instance, got herself into a sticky situation when her phone managed to slip from her hand and onto her neighbor’s balcony.

It was an unfortunate situation, but she had a plan.

…Until that plan backfired.

So, it was time for a new plan.

Let’s just say she was feeling a lot of feels, as we often do when losing something so loved and treasured.

She was getting REAL desperate.

Seriously, she tried everything, including human interaction.

When all else failed, she had to wish her beloved goodbye until she could come back again.

But even from afar, she couldn’t stop thinking about her fallen friend.

Especially when it looked like the universe was not going to be in her favor.

As you can imagine, it’s been a very rough time for her.

But desperate times call for desperate measures, which, again, means talking to actual human beings.

Seriously, this is like an episode of Dora the Explorer where you’re supposed to choose which item from her backpack will save the day.

Though Liz hasn’t retrieved her phone yet, she has assured us all it’s still alive.

She’s just gotten craftier while she waits.

So what will happen to Liz and her beloved iPhone? Well, we’ll just have to wait and see.

May the odds be ever in her favor. Thought Catalog Logo Mark
