"RINNG!"
"RINNNG!"
"RINNNNG!"
I jerked to a sitting position and scanned the living space for the noise. My eyes landed on the coffee table and I saw Calvin's iPhone fifteen pro. The screen was lit with a blue screen with the letter "H." I twisted my head to Calvin and saw he remained in dreamland. I picked up his phone and pressed the power button to end the call. Once it was quiet I picked up my motorola razr+ I checked the time and it was four-thirty.
"Yayyyyy thirty more minutes of sleep."
As I was went to clear all the notifications I saw a text from my ol' man. Which reminded me I hadn't given him a recent update. I sighed as I stood to my feet and stepped into the bedroom. I entered the bathroom and shut the door. I sat on the top toilet lid and turned my phone on and selected the phone symbol. It took me to recent calls where my dad's was second on the list. I selected "DAD," and it wrang twice before he picked up.
