I guess it was hard seeing Jacob not talk to me on the way home.
I guess it was hard knowing that what he did to Chase was cruel.
And I guess it was hard knowing that I should be mad at him not him mad at me. What was I supose to do? say no to the little girl who begged it was urgent for me to meet him?
Anyways I guess it was hard to deal with all of this, but did I really need to call Chase to talk about it.
I stare at the already dialed numbers on my cell phone awaiting for me to press talk.
He did say call him if there is any problems...
I pressed talk and walked over to my bed to lay. I press the phone against my ear to hear the usual pattern of ringing I usually hear.
On the fifth ring someone answered, it wasn't Chase.
"Hello?" said an elderly voice voice.
I didnt know what to say, should I talk to her or hang up.
"Anybody there?"
It was probably rude to call and not answer, plus I bet chase has collar id and probably would call me back.
"hello" I breathed out.
"oh hello! this is miss Madison how may I help you?"
"Can I have Chase please?"
"Chase? I dont know a Chase"
great I got a fake number.
"Oh wait, do you mean Charles?"
"Charles?"
"yes, I forgot my grandson likes to call himself Chase instead"
I laughed. "His name is Charles?"
"It's a family name"
"oh I'm sorry" I said still laughing.
"Well let me get you Chase"
"Hello?"
"Hey Chase it's me Nicole"
"oh hey Nicole"
"can I ask you something" I asked biting my lip.
"yeah sure"
"Should I call you Chase or Charles?"
I could hear him cringing on the other side. "Chase, call me Chase please"
"but Charles sounds so formal" I whined.
"Did you just call to make fun of me?"
"no, I called because of Jacob..."
"what did he do this time"
"he's ignoring me"
"shouldn't that be the other way around?"
"yeah but-"
"no buts Nicole, you gotta put him in his place"
"Chase I-"
"Listen Nicole I gotta go but don't let him take advantage of you"
after that the phone call ended.
"Thanks Charles" I groan as I roll to my side on the bed.
