Ring Ring!

Scarlette woke up abruptly. What a way to disturb someone! She answered her phone and in a grim voice said,
"Hello? Vasgo?"
"Hey Scar! Why do you sound so grim? Were you sleeping?"
"Damn right I was! What you're going to say better be important, I was having such a great dream!"
"Actually, it is important. I won't be available anymore, I'll get off social media for a while. You know, studies"
"Vas, ARE YOU FREAKING SERIOUS?"
"Woah woah! no need to scream! I am serious, I don't know if I'll be back or not. If I won't be, I just wanna say my last goodbye"
"I don't know if this is some sick joke or not but it sure is infuriating me"

Vasgo didn't say anything. Vasgo and Scarlette had been friends for, not that long. They had met on an app called 'zepeto' and are good friends. Vasgo didn't know but Scarlette actually had feelings for Vasgo, that's why she was so mad when she heard about this 'news'

"Scar, you there? Listen, I'm sorry, if it makes you feel better, there is a chance of me coming back! So cheer up! You look ugly when you're mad"
"Shut up!"
Both started laughing
"Alright Vas, promise you'll be back?"
"I promise"
"Alright...so this is goodbye then?"
"Probably...bye...Scar"
"Bye...Vas..."

She hung up. Even though a part of her was breaking, she had hope Vasgo would be back...

Hope...the only think humans relied on to pursue life...
