"Should I add or remove.." Robyn mumbled. Contemplating, she nibbled on her fingernail before sending a quick text to her mother.

She was seated along her living room couch with her legs crossed and her laptop right in her view.

Her phone had been on "Do not disturb" for the past couple of days. She was in no rush to answer her notifications since she still had about 1-2 weeks left on her medical leave. The usually overworked girl could not wait to get back into her daily routine.

Robyn mainly stayed home and preoccupied herself with tons of paperwork that she managed to procure with Tyler's help.

Her bluetooth stereo played dully in the background helping her multitasking-self concentrate on her work.

Becoming impatient, Robyn unlocked her device and searched for Leona's contact name once more being that she had not yet responded.

"Come on, I just had it," she whispered upon losing the contact in her many unanswered text messages. Most were asking if she was alright, others were checking on her. She did not really care to respond at this point. She has not been in the proper mood for much chatting these past weeks. "Dad, Jo, Lee, Brandon, Paula, Isaiah, Dean, Mom- wait. Dean?" She adjusted her glasses on her nose.

baby🖤: was thinking about you
baby🖤: how r you?
*Last text messages sent: Yesterday at 11:43 PM.*

"Thinking about me? Prob his insomnia talking," her eyes rolled as she typed away. She soon deleted the whole thing and restarted.

Robyn: im good..

About five minutes passed, at the same time she battled with the idea of changing his contact name. She did not want to change it, but at the same time she did. She was clearly conflicted.

Regardless of what she desired or might have, they both knew that being in a relationship right now was not an option yet. Considering the factors of whatever he had done in his past, she was not sure where he stood in all of its mess.

In all honestly, the only detail she cared for was that he had taken care of it/settled it completely because her only major issue with him was his past.

baby🖤: i have smt i'd like to run by you. i can't get a view and i need your opinion

She had been helping him with some things regarding his newest club opening. Only little things..things a man with a mind like his own could solve quite easily, though she figured it was his way of keeping contact.

Robyn: listen i can't do this right now
Robyn: i'm busy.

baby🖤: it's texting ro
baby🖤: is it really that time consuming?

Robyn: i don't wanna argue w/u.

baby🖤: then don't

Toying with the corner of her lower lip, she paused.

The three bubbles at the bottom of her screen popped up then vanished quickly just when her startling doorbell rang twice.
