Irreplaceable

The Aftermath

2 Months Later-

Saige-

"Hey."

"Ma'am!" I heard causing me to jump up from my sleep.

"we're closed."

"Sorry." I sighed before gathering my books and electronics and stuffing them into my tote.

After walking out I checked my phone to see a couple of missed calls from Chris so I called back as soon as I got in my car.

"Where have you been ? I thought you was coming to the game ?" he asked

"I'm sorry, I got caught up in studying and I fell asleep in a coffee shop." I replied

"Saige you can't be doing that shit, people are crazy."

"I know I was just tired and I had forgot all about the game, how did it go?" I asked

"Mhm you said that last time.. but it went ok we lost but it was a close one." He said

"Im sorry, there's next game though, and then of course i'm there when y'all make it to Nationals." I said

"Yea yea yea, but ima head back to my dorm so i'll just catch up with you later."

"Let me know when you make it in, I love you." I told him.

"Same with you. Love you too." He replied before hanging up.

I let out an tired sigh before resting my head on my steering wheel.

I've been having to study non stop for exams on top of getting a lot of personal shit together. What happened New Years honestly fucked my head up and I didn't know how to cope with what happened, so I ended up getting back into therapy. It was best for my mental health and for everyone around me because I knew that me getting back into that dark place wouldn't help me heal.

Me and Chris have both been crazy busy, so we haven't been seeing each other as often. It's March Madness for him, so they've been playing games like non stop. his schedule is full between, practice, workouts, and games every single day, and he's only ever free at night. obviously i'm usually stuck studying or getting sleep by the time he's free, so we've kind of just been talking whenever we can.

In the process of me driving my phone rang and it was Anthony. I answered before putting him on speaker and sitting my phone down.

"Where you at ?" He asked

"On my way to my dorm, where you at?" I chuckled

"At your dorm." he said and I furrowed my eyebrows

"Why?" I asked

"To see you nigga duh, how far are you?" He asked

"I'm just down the street, what made you come up here ??" I asked

"Damn can I see my sister ?" He asked and I laughed

"I'm on my way." I told him before we hung up.

After arriving to my dorm, I seen him parked outside, and he got out of his car before coming to give me a hug.

"Hii." I told him.

"Wassup, you coming from Chris's game ?" He asked and I scratched my head

"Um no, I couldn't make it I had to study." J said and he nodded

"Understandable, then niggas sucked tonight anyways." he said

"You went ?" I asked

"Yea, but I only made it at half time." He said
