[Lolo 4:26 pm]
Hey babe, I just got out of my last class for the week. I was wondering if we could facetime tonight? I miss you.

[Camz 4:51 pm]
I was actually thinking we could just do a call. I don't have a lot of time tonight, but I guess we can talk. I've been trying to find a time to talk about something with you anyways.

[Lolo 4:52 pm]
Oh, okay... What time can you talk?

[Camz 4:57 pm]
I can actually do it now if you're back at the apartment

Lauren's POV

I call her immediately after reading her response and my girlfriend picks up after the third ring. "She lives!" I act shocked due to our lack of phone calls recently. I'm not complaining though, I'll take what I can get.

"Hey."  I immediately pick up on her tone and grow worried.

"What's wrong? Are you okay?" My heart begins to beat faster, but it's probably no big deal.

She lets out a quiet sigh. "Nothing. Well-," She hesitates a second, "Is Dinah at the apartment with you?"  What an odd question

"No, I'm all alone for a while. Why?" I realize that I've been walking around aimlessly and finally take a seat on the couch in our living room.

"Lauren, I can't do this anymore."  I can barely make out what she said due to her quiet voice and need to clarify, "What did you say? I can't really hear you."

She speaks louder and more forcefully this time, "I'm breaking up with you, Lauren."

My phone drops to the floor and all I can see is one solid color. Red. I can't process anything, I feel stunned. This is a nightmare, it has to be a nightmare. So why don't you just wake up Lauren. I'm surely stuck in my own head, my thoughts are echoing.

"Hello? Lauren? Did you hang up?" I come to with the faint noises still coming from my phone. I have no clue how long I sat there all blanked out. After a second of recuperating, I reach down and pick up my phone, thankfully it landed on the rug and the screen hasn't shattered.

My body won't allow any words to come out and all I can do is hold the phone up to my ear and listen to her breathing. She mumbles an occasional "I'm sorry,"  and continues to ask if I'm still here until she finally breaks our agonizing silence. "I have to go now, I'm so sorry."

And the last thing I can feel is everything shattering around me.
