Through the eyes of Princeton,
I haven't seen hazel since we went to the movies and today makes a week. I mean we've been getting back on track lately with our ... friendship if you would say and I'm kind of getting used to seeing her on a regular. I've been calling her and she hasn't been responding yet when I log onto Facebook she's making statuses about how people need to text her and how she's bored at home by herself.
So I figured I call her once more. I mean Lindsay was asleep in the back like always and I was in the couch so why not call hazel?
"Hello? sorry you've reached my voicemail. Leave a message. Bye!" Her recorded voice spoke. And I shook my head. Is she avoiding me or something. I waited for her to stop talking and then the automated voice came on. "Leave a message after the tone. Beep!"
It rang in my ear and I just sat back.
"Hazel.... its Jacob. I just wanted to see wassup. Like are you avoiding me? I was hoping we could talk soon. So call me back. "
And then I hung up. Just then Lindsay walked in. "Hey babe" she smiled and kissed me on the cheek. "Oh... hi Bae." I sat up and played of my feelings. "Who were you talking to?" She asked. I cleared my throat and nodded "just roc. He never answers the phone for shit."
Lindsay had a weird look on her face and nodded. "Okay then" she chuckled and went into the kitchen. "What do you want for dinner babe? " she asked.
"Pizza's fine. We'll order"
I got of of the couch and went into the bathroom. I closed the door and locked it behind myself just to have a moment of peace and realization. I looked in the mirror at myself and began to have flashbacks of me and hazel. I remember when we were in high school and me and roc would just constantly pick on her and Nana. The moment she threw cake in my face after I tripped her... the time I slapped her. Why the hell did I do something stupid like that? I mean I know I was a bully but jeez. Not to mention our first ttime having sex during Friday night live. I mean a lot of thoughts gathered in my mind including the dream i had of her and me a few nights ago. She's just only person that's been on my mind lately. I really don't know what to do. So I figure I'd call Roc and ask him.
"Hello?" He answered
"Bro.... I need help"
Roc cleared his throat " on what exactly? "
" me and hazel have been hanging out for the past 2 weeks and lately she's been on my mind. " I told him
"Okay and?"
"And dumbass I don't know how to deal, I mean she's been avoiding ne lately and I don't feel right. I feel as if I did something wrong"
"Did you do anything wrong? And does Cervante know y'all been hanging together?" Roc asked.
" roc once question at a time. And no I did nothing wrong. "
"Well how about Cervante? "
I coughed a little bit and shook my head. "No he doesn't know and neither does Lindsay. If that was your next question Maury!" I whispered harshly.
"Well if I were you, I'd call her "
"She's ignored my calls"
"Inbox her on Facebook. If she sees the message and doesn't reply then you know wassup. She's avoiding you." Roc advised
It was 11:42 pm and I figured I might as well message her before I fell asleep so I hung up from roc and got on it.
"Hazel. If I did anything to you... I'm sorry. Just tell me what I did. Its been 3 days and you haven't talked to me since the movies. " I typed and pressed send. Now all I have to do Is wait for her to get online. I waited for hours and it wasn't bad. But then I realized it was 2am and I was tired as hell. I'm trying to reach out to her but I guess I did do something for her not to wanna even talk to me. I drifted off to sleep and before I knew it ... it was morning and Lindsay was out shopping with my damn card! I stretched and reached over to my laptop and saw the message I sent to hazel the night before. It said seen at 3:42am . So sometime while I was asleep and she didn't answer. This only meant that she was avoiding me.
