     For the next couple of days, I sit in my room going over that single conversation. Twisting and turning it round in my head. Analysing and overanalyzing. Trying to read between and inside the lines. I still couldn't get it. I just couldn't. This is plain stupid. That's been my thought everytime I thought about this whole situation. It's stupid. It really is.

    How much did Temi mention my name to get her this riled up?

     Oh my goodness, I think sitting up on my baby pink bed.

    Is Jacob in on this too? He's also been acting strange. Probably wants to distance himself yet again. It's currently 23rd. My phone rang and BTS blasted from the speakers. I glance at it only to see yet another call from Sophia. I'm really not in the mood, Soph.

       I lie back down, tuck my hands underneath my head and stare up at the ceiling. My phone rings again. I grab it in frustration thinking it's Sophia.

      "Yes?" I ask harshly.

       "Jeez. What did I do to you?" Someone asks with a laugh. I pull the phone away from my ear and glance at the caller ID. Michael.

      "Sorry. I thought you were someone else"

       "It's fine. So what's up kemsy wemsy?" He asks and I hear shuffling in the background till everywhere was quiet.

     "Kemsy wemsy? Am I a dog now?"

      "You could. I could also be your master" I can literally feel his smirk through the phone.

    "Not happening, mikey wikey" I tease.

    "You are so bad at this" he says with another laugh.

    "It's way better than the rubbish you came up with"

     "Take that back. I gave you that nickname out of love" he says.

    "Love, my ass" I reply with an eye roll even though he can't see me. I turn to rest my head against the headboard to get comfortable. "Is there a reason for your call?"

     "So, I can't just call you?"

     "Well....." I start.

      "Wow. Anyways, I was hoping we could meet up for lunch tomorrow?" I can faintly hear someone talking in the background and it kind of sounds like a girl.

    "You sure the girl there won't mind?"

    "It's none of her business who I meet"

    "Fine then. It's a date. A lunch date. Between friends and stuff" I say rambling.

     "Yeah I got that part" he answers laughing. What's got him in a good mood? "I'll see you tomorrow, kemsy wemsy"

    "Wouldn't miss it, mikey wikey" I say with a laugh and we both hang up. I can't help but smile after the call. Who names a friend kemsy wemsy? Michael that's who. I pick my phone back up and scroll through it, smiling when I see something funny until I fall asleep. I jolt awake minutes later when I remember I haven't eaten. I quickly run out of the room in search of food.
How could I forget to eat? To eat?!!
    It's me, I never forget to eat. This feud is taking a toll on me.

    "You're too young to go on lunch dates with cute boys" she says and continues washing the dishes.

    "Mom. It's Michael"

    "So what? Michael's cute, isn't he?" She asks me, raising a single eyebrow.
