Virgil 1st POV

"No. Not at all," I say rolling my eyes. Why am I so nervous? I stop talking, feeling my anxiety rise.

I've had a stutter since I was six. After years of speech therapy and constant insults, I got control of it. The only time when I stutter now is when I'm afraid or nervous. It usually comes with my anxiety to. Those two are very, very, embarrassing together. They're also very nerve wracking.

"Virgil, I don't bite you know," Roman says waiting for an answer.

"O-of course you don't-t, you aren't a shark," I say in a sarcastic manner, even though the stutter kicks in and kills it.

"I-I h-have t-to go n-now," I say wanting escape from my stutter.

"Ok darling, if you say-" I don't even wait for him to finish his sentence. I just hang up as fast as possible. I hope he doesn't hate me for this.
