/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

I slept through the whole day yesterday, so it's now Wednesday I think, considering Monday was the concert and it went on into Tuesday. Through Tuesday I've been woken up by calls from Cali. I've ignored all of them. I just don't have the strength to talk to her. It's not like I hate her, god I would kill myself if I ever hated her, she's all I have. Funny how that worked out of my last friend huh?

I don't hate her, I just feel betrayed that she would keep her relationship with Maxx a secret. I could care less if she was dating him, even with my situation with Cody. As long as she's happy and doesn't forget about me I'll be fine. I just want her to be happy.

Sighing, I get up from my bed and head to the kitchen to make myself some lunch. Yes, I haven't gotten into work yet. I just don't have the will to anymore. Seems I don't have the desire to do anything anymore do I? Yet I still manage to have some left. Is it the anxiety taking over the depression? The constant fear of not having money or other things pushing out the emptiness I feel? Yeah, probably that.

Pushing up my glasses, I open the fridge and place my hands on my hips, scanning what I have for food. I guess a sandwich will have to do. 

Getting everything I need and placing it on the counter I make my way over to the home phone, checking for messages.

'You have three new messages. Message one, yesterday 10am.'

'Hey Alice, it's Cali, I haven't used this number in a while but I'm worried. You won't answer your phone, texts or anything. I didn't mean for you to find out the way we did. Anyway, call me so we can talk about it. Don't die please.'

I lick the peanut butter off my fingers as I finish my peanut butter sandwich. Yeah just peanut butter, I hate jelly.

I should call her, maybe, I don't know. I just feel like the wounds are too fresh but I don't want to wait too long and have this unsettled feeling.

'Message two, yesterday 12pm'

'Hey Alice it's Austin.'

My mouth flies open and food almost makes its way out of my mouth.

How the hell did he get my number?

'Yeah, I got your number in the phone book because well apparently you're in there. Ok so I'm calling because I want to talk to you. Like meet you some place and talk just about last night and stuff. Meet me at the coffee shop called 'Off Broadway,' at 8pm ok?'

I slam my head on the counter with as a whine leaves my mouth.

Why is this happening to me? Austin just stay away from me please. I can't be near you, I made a promise of some sort and I can't be near you. You're making this worse for me.

'Message three, yesterday 7pm.'

'Hey Alice its Cody.'

"You've got to be fucking kidding me right now."

My yells echo through my empty apartment. This is a joke.

'We need to talk about the concert. I was drunk, or at least I think I was, I can't really remember but I just need to talk to you about it cause I have no clue what was said, I don't remember at all. So please, meet me at the coffee shop just around the corner of you apartment, 'Off Broadway,' Wednesday at 8pm. Bye.'
