the next morning.

ongoing call

christa🌟
you know frieda loves you, but she has to think about the café too. she's not mad—just worried. you haven't shown up in a week and—

you
no, i understand. i'll go in today and talk to her.

you exhaled, staring blankly at the ceiling. it wasn't just frieda who'd messaged you countless times over the past week about the arrest; it was also your coworkers, floch, nifa, carley and even lou. news travelled fast in a small town like trost. 

for now, your best bet was to lie low and find something more flexible till things calmed down. maybe even trim some expenses like subscriptions, unnecessary treats and your matcha addiction.

christa🌟
i know you said you're handling it...but is there anything i can do to help? maybe with groceries?

you smiled.

you
that's alright, i just stocked up for the week. but if i think of anything...i'll ask. thank you.

a dull pressure throbbed behind your eyes as if to call you out on your lie. you rubbed your temples and dragged the blanket over your head in surrender.

christa giggle bubbled through the speaker.

christa🌟
you're not planning to hibernate all day, are you?

you
i wish. i've got english later, plus a mountain of homework i haven't even started yet. and i still need to clean the house...

christa🌟

sounds like a productive day. oh, speaking of rooms—want to see mine? i finally finished decorating!
