You asked me today if I could talk. It's the first time you've messaged me in a few days and I was relieved. I thought you were pulling back.
Unfortunately, I was in class, so I told you I'd be free in two hours to talk. You responded with 'It's always' I'm in class' or 'let me go to the stairwell''.
And even though you added laughing emojis I still felt guilty- which is silly because I can't control class times and I need to go to the stairwell to get good enough cell service to video call you. You said you knew. I could have pointed out that you haven't made an effort to message me over the past three days but I refrained. Shaming each other and comparing each other like that can be toxic and breed distrust and it is not something I want to participate in.
We finally talked though, and it was nice. I missed you.
