It's already Saturday, and he hasn't even texted me. Is this a good or bad thing? Then out of nowhere I here my phone chime. It's him! The text says, "Sorry, been busy, didn't mean to leave you hangin' lyk that but I'm here now"
So I reply, "It's ok, yu probably had better things to do than txt me anyways", which I then regretted I sent.
