Say what you miss, without setting a test
Deb wants her sister to ring because she wants to, not because Deb has asked. Rosie asks whether she has said what she misses. Deb realises that her usual reassurance, saying she knows her sister is busy, hides the wish she wants her to understand. She tries a different sentence: she loves their chats and would like her sister to ring sometimes, too. The Short ends with Deb sending it. Her action is complete, while her sister's answer remains open.
What Rosie brings to the conversation
Rosie asks a small question instead of guessing what Deb's sister thinks. Deb chooses a direct request that says what she wants without making the other person pass an unspoken test.

Deb: I want my sister to call because she wants to. Not because I've asked.
Rosie: Have you told her what you miss?
Deb: No. I keep saying, don't worry, I know you're busy.
Rosie: What do you actually mean?
Deb: I love our chats. Could you ring me sometimes, too?
Rosie: That's a request, not a test.
Deb: Right. Sent.
