Veronica waited all day, eagerly anticipating 5 pm and the call she knew would come from the man she loved. As the hours ticked by, she was filled with excitement and nervousness. It had been a long, tiring day, and she looked forward to hearing his voice and sharing the events that led up to it.
At 5 pm!
He will call.
"What shall I tell him about?
The problem. The chaos. How I've Survived just by the thought that at the end of the day, he will be there.He will listen and solve all of my problems. But it's alright if he doesn't have all the answers. Being with him made me alive. I just have to be patient."

5 pm!
That ringtone!
That she made it special.
She picked up...

Something dragged her out of it. The noise that came through felt like it came out of nowhere and pulled her out of the moment, and she was back in reality. She knew it was a dream, but why wouldn't it let her finish. It was merely a second to hear his voice.
A second!
No matter how much she wanted to go back, it was gone. She was dragged into reality.
All she had once was to be given away.
Nothing left.
Not Even in her dream.
She turned off the alarm clock.
Another day!
