that one

confusion

i dial blake's number and start pacing around the front lawn

wtf?? he's not picking up

i try calling three more times just to be sent straight to voicemail

ok now i'm genuinely starting to get worried bc he usually picks up or sends a text if he doesn't pick up

i sigh and then jules pops up on my screen

"hello?"

"OH HEY I MIGHT NOT BE ABLE TO MAKE IT TO OUR CAFE LUNCH LATER ON, IS THAT OK WITH U?" she exclaimed, clearly out of breath

"umm yes that's fine, what's with the yelling?" that was in fact a total lie cos i had been looking forward to see her all week (she was busy with her golden student academic shit smh)

"IM RUNNING A MARATHON RN FOR A CAMPAIGN"

"huh?? what since when?"

"YEA IK ITS SUPER RANDOM AND CAME OUT OF THE BLUE"

"ahh i see ok. have u heard from blake today, he's not picking my calls and i have like ten missed ones from him."

"WHAT THATS WEIRD MAYBE TRY GOING TO HIS PLACE. ANYWAYS I GTG MY MOMS UP MY ASS RN TTYL"

"girl dw i feel u, ask ur mom if she's up to come over tonight, my moms asking."

"ALRIGHT BYE LOVE U"

"mhm yep ilyt"

what has this day come to. the most random shit

when was the last time i've even ever been to blakes house? i only faintly remember it being on oakland avenue

after twenty mins of strutting around downtown windsor, i arrived at his place

i proceeded to walk up and knock on the door, just to see blake's figure through the window.

i barged in and shouted, "DUDE WTF WHERE HAVE U BEEN? U LITERALLY DIDNT PICK UP"

with a confused look, he turned around

"umm...sry what?"

"you-" but before i could say anything, something clicked in me

"sorry who are u? why are u here?"

"um i'm here for blake? he hasn't been picking up any of my calls. and ur def not blake." blake had bright blue eyes but this guys had beautiful green/brown eyes and was alittle skinnier. i could've sworn i fell in love at that moment but- scratch that i'm dating blake, i can't do this.

"oh blake? i've been trying to get ahold of him too, but it's not that big of a deal, he's always doing this. i'm guessing ur #3 this school year and a new girlfriend of his? u should get used to this"

"oh- um what? this isn't abnormal to u?"

"nah hes my brother, been doing this for two years ever since he started puberty. girls were flying at him ever since then so he partied every weekend"

oh wow idk why that didn't click in me

wait no so that means he's prob cheating on me, but honestly atp idec, it's expected.

"on that thought, my apologies for not introducing myself. my names dylan, blake's twin brother." *wink*

"twin?? but u guys have two diff eye colors and facial structure?"

"ah right, you must be confused but he's just my fraternal twin hahaha. our eye colors are most def different bc i have heterochromia." he says flushed. "he's more muscular so he gets more girls, which is honestly stupid." he whispers.

as i reach out to shake his hand with a big smile on my face, a sudden loud barge exclaims behind me. i turned around in pure shock and disgust.
