My appetite was gone by the time I sat down for dinner. Mom definitely took note of my anxious finger tapping on the table but she refrained from asking any questions. From the moment I got home, I was jumpy about every phone notification I got.

After dinner I quickly got up from the table and lugged myself up the stairs to my room, kicking the door closed behind me. I ended up throwing myself down onto my bed, looking up at the ceiling. I watched the fan spinning around, the cool air barely giving me any relief. My face was burning hot from my nerves and he hadn't even texted me yet.

"Why am I so scared..." I whispered, closing my eyes for a moment.

I was so happy he wanted to call but every time I thought about it and pictured his face it made me all the more nervous. I didn't know why, we had been texting for so long now but it's totally different putting a voice and face to the words on the screen.

I shuddered as I pictured his face in my mind.
He was so damn cute.

Speak of the devil.

My heart was pounding a million miles.

can u call?

My heart dropped into my stomach and came back up again. This was worse than before. I so easily pictured him looking down at his phone while laying in bed, smiling down at the screen while sending these messages. It made my head spin.

I bit my lip, hovering my thumb over the letters.

yes


I gasped when I hit send, throwing my phone down onto the bed sheets. I buried my face in my pillow, trying to slow down my heart rate, but it wasn't working. I heard the Line notification and hesitantly reached for my phone to check his reply.


would u be comfortable with a video chat?

could we possibly do a voice call for today?

im sorry :(


I felt bad about not wanting to video chat but after seeing his photo I became even more self conscious. It was so stupid but all I could think was, 'will he like the way I look?' 'what if he's disappointed?' 'what if he stops talking to me?'

It made my chest hurt just thinking about it.

He didn't message me back. Instead he just called.
