˖𓍯ꕤ*. - AMARI'S APARTMENT ! -
Gio and i have been spending our time talking almost everyday since she's been gone, but lately things have been off with her and i have no idea what it is.
i make conversation and she's dry, i call her and she doesn't answer; and when she does, she's dry. i'm starting to get concerned that she's having regrets about giving us another try.
she said that when she comes back she's gonna take me on a date, and now i don't even know if that's true or not.
"what do you think her deal is?" i asked Ida and Irene on our three-way facetime call. Ida and Irene got silent as they both looked away from the camera. "hello?" i jerked my head towards the screen with farrowed eyebrows.
"i don't know, Mani," Ida sighed. "maybe she's distancing herself for a reason? do you know why...?" Ida smiled slightly to try to bring my mood up, but i plopped my head down on my bed, face buried in the covers.
"no, i don't." my words muffled.
Irene sighed, "maybe she met someone new." she stated, causing my head to jerk up as i stared at her picking at her nails. "or maybe not." she quickly changed as she took in my vulnerable expression and Ida's angry one.
she was clearly still working on the whole good big sister thing. i was giving her some credit but other times she real deal pisses me off to the point where i ignore her for days on end.
"whatever," i stated but perked up when i was getting another call. "hold on she's calling me." i hung up the phone to answer hers, not giving them a chance to respond.
"hey baby," she softly said, giving me a tiny smile. it looked as if she was laid out on a bed in just a soft yellow t-shirt, her straightened hair was pulled up out of her face.
"hi," i replied with a smile, my face lighting up. "how was your day? we didn't get to catch up much last night." i held my phone in both of my hands as i relaxed more on my stomach.
she simply gave me a nod. "it was pretty good, caught up with some familiar faces and was on stage with them last night and today too." she kept glancing to the side of her as if she didn't want to keep eye contact with me.
i huffed, "okay what's-" i cut myself off as i got a messages from the group chat with 'SOS' and 'supposedly Gio was with her ex?' with a photo.
i swiped the message done, leaving my screen on paused and squinted my eyes to see the picture before i decided to just clicked on it. it was a screenshotted instagram post of Gio and some girl standing super close to each other with a headline 'Gio and her supposed ex?'
"what?" Gio asked as she noticed my silence. "and why are you on pause?" i clicked on the facetime call, seeing as her face was all frowned up.
"so, when you say familiar faces; do you mean that ex of yours or? am i just trippin?" i tilted my head at her, waiting for her to give me an answer.
she shook her head, looking away from me. "you saw that post?"
i hummed, narrowing my eyes at her.
she scratched her eyebrows and held a hand up, showing off her rings. "i don't know. yeah, that's my ex but we ain't do nothing, Imani. i actually need you to trust me on that shit, i don't even know how they know that's my ex for real though." she turned her attention back to me.
she was doing that thing where she gives me those seductive eyes and she thinks that shits gon work. it might...but no it's not.
"okay, i trust you." i messed with my covers, wanting nothing more than for her to just be here.
we're finally on good terms, i don't need anything else to mess this up like how i messed this up. "so, was that the last time you seen her or?" i questioned her, realizing that this was really causing me to overthink.
her lip quirked up a bit. "i seen her today too, but that's it. i was around other people, we're cool. plus, you'd never see me with her ass again. i'm all yours, baby." she smiled, her droopy eyes staring into mine.
"stop allat smoking," i waved her off playfully, trying to skip past what she said so that i wouldn't get all nervous.
she jerked her head back sharply. "who you talking to right now? i ain't stopping shit, baby. how bout you stop avoiding shit?" she clocked me.
i chuckled slightly, "yeah okay."
she sat silently, just watching me. "but for real though, trust me. i'll tell you all about that shit when i come back home okay?"
"okay," i muttered.
"and don't think i forgot about that lil date either, ma." she smirked as i took my face out the camera.
