I end the phone call, only for it to ring once more not a minute later.
Unmuting my ipad so my sisters can now hear my conversation, I answer the call.
"I'm sorry. I guess I dialed the wrong number.." The unnamed caller affirms.
"So why'd you dial it again?" I ask, playing with my nails in annoyance.
"To apologize."
"Alright well.. you're forgiven. Bye now." I say dryly, ready to cut the call short.
"Wait wait.. don't hang up." He says, now pleading for me to stay on the line.
"What do you want bro?" I sigh to myself.
"I wanna talk to you for a second.." He says softly, continuing his pleading.
"I'm sure you've got about 900 more numbers for that. Toodles." I remark, happily ending the call as I smile to myself.
"Y'all both not shit good Lord." Sage says dismayed, shaking her head at me.
Going about my business I catch my sisters up on what occured in the time I happened to be muted.
As we spew a bunch of nonsense out of our mouths about whatever comes to mind, I get a glimpse of the bouquet of lilies and become distracted.
