 Hey! You! I missed you! :( You miss me?? No?! Okay.. 

 ( Later On That Day, 8:45 p.m. ) ( Sysy's POV ) Laying down on my bed with all the lights off, no music, no talking on the phone, no texting, nothing. Thinking to myself, ''Why haven't he called yet?'' ''Is he really upset with me?'' ''What did I do wrong?''  I didn't know the answers to any of those questions. I tried calling him, but it constantly kept going straight to voicemail after two rings. Can't say I didn't try. 

''I knew you were trouble when you walked in! So shame on me..''  Hey, I can be a blonde sometimes.. Anyways, hearing Taylor's voice singing through my phone speaker, indicating a phone call, I knew that ringtone from anywhere. Why would he be calling though? Without bothering to look at the caller i.d., I tapped the answer button..

 Me: Hello?

 ??: Um. Hey Sysy?

 Me: What do you want?

 ??: Are you busy at the moment?

 Me: No, I'm not actually. Why?

 ??: I was wondering if I could come over. You know, just to talk over some things.

 Me: Ehh. I don't know if that would be such a good idea.

 ??: Oh, come on Sysy. It won't take that long.

 Me: ....Fine. Be over in 15 minutes.

 ??: Thanks. ( Hangs up. )

 I got up from my bed, walking into my bathroom. I looked glanced at the mirror and did a double take. My hair was everywhere. How can it look so jacked up when I was laying down in one place? I quickly grabbed the hair brush and brushed the not wanted to be seen section. I then wrapped in a bun on top of my head, then tied a black scarf into a bow, just to draw the attention away. 

 I walked out the bathroom, strutting downstairs. Entering the kitchen, I grabbed an apple, washed it, and bit into it. Hearing a few knocks at the door, I went out to answer it. There he stood. Without any of us saying a thing, an awkward silence filled the air, no tension. He rubbed behind his neck not knowing what to say.

 ??: Um, can I come in?

 Me: Nah. We can talk out here. ( Shuts the door. ) You wanted to talk, talk.

 ??: First off, I wanna say, it's not my fault. 

 Me: Lamar, I didn't say it was. It's partly my fault too, and I know it. I got a little too into it, and made the first move. I admit, it wasn't the right thing to do. Espicially knowing it would ruin our friendship.

 Lamar: That's what I wanted to talk about too. Sysy, I really, really, like you. Fuck that, I think I love you. You may not see it or feel the same way, but it's okay. I've heard you and Jaylin are currently in a relationship. And I respect that. So, I made up my mind while thinking this earlier and came to the conclusion that I just wanna be friends. Yeah I love you but I have to get it in the way where I need to love you as a sister. And, I hope you find some place in your heart to put everything that happened at that party behind us in our past, and look towards the future.

 Wow. I never knew he felt this way. Yes, I like Lamar, but, only as a friend, nothing more, just like I said before. Drowning in every word he said, made me realize that it was deep. He's been my friend for years, I can't let a kiss and dance break that apart. 

 Me: I accept. ( Smiles. )

 Lamar: Thanks Sysy. ( Reaches out for hug. )

 Me: Ehh. Come here Boogey Head. ( Hugs him tightly, but in a friendly way. )

 Lamar: ( Chuckles. ) I haven't heard that name in so long.

  Car head lights suddenly spots us. We pulled apart shielding our eyes, and looked towards the blinding light. The driver then got out of their car, making their face visible. Turns out, it was Jay.

 Sysy: Jaylin?

 Jay: What's going on here?

 Lamar: Oh, I came to--

 Jay: I was talking to my girlfriend.

 Lamar puts his hands up in surrender then turns towards Sysy. 

 Lamar: Seems like you have some buisness to handle. I'll talk to you later. ( Salutes. )

I watched Lamar as he jogged down the driveway, hopped in his Jeep, and drove away.

 Me: What are you doing here?

 Jay: Don't worry bout that. The question is, what was he doing here? And why was he hugging you?

 Me: ( Mocks Jaylin's voice. ) Don't worry bout that. ( Rolls eyes and opens the door to walk back in the house.)

 Moments later, another knock came upon the door. I walked back and pulled it open.

 Me: What now?

 Jay: Can we talk?

 Me: Oh, now all of a sudden, YOU wanna talk? How about when I was blowing your phone up but you didn't answer? That's when I wanted to talk. But YOU didn't. Now that I think about it, I don't wanna talk. Get your act straight, fix your attitude, then maybe, just maybe, I wanna talk. ( Shuts and locks door.)

 ( Next morning. 10:15. ) ( Sysy's POV. ) I woke up hearing those damn birds chirping through my window. Not the right way to start my day. I stretched and walked into the bathroom, starting my shower, and spreading toothpaste on my toothbrush. I walked back in my room while brushing my teeth, wondering what to do today. My phone lighted up. I made my way towards my phone, pressing the lock button. 

 8 missed calls from ''Lil' Baby''

3 voicemails

20 text messages from ''Lil' Baby''

1 message from ''Ty''

Ignoring what I just seen, I thought to myself, ''I'll call Ty back when I'm done with my shower.''
