Say Anything

Too Late to Say Sorry?

AJ's POV

"Just fucking go!" are the words that wandered around my mind for a couple of hours. "Did I just push Phil away?" I thought depressively. I decided to go through his phone and apologize. It rang but no one answered just the service operator telling he's out of coverage. I called Celeste to tell her and open up.

"Hey AJ what's up?" Celeste said on the other line.

"Hey I think I really scared Phil big time." I said with my voice getting all shaky.

"What did you do this time?" She questioned.

"My depressive cycles are happening again and I told him to fuck off." I looked down and sat on the floor.

"Did you explain your things and he got opinionated with it?!" She asked furiously.

"No no! He was very gentle and caring with me. I just fucked it off." I said with devastation.

"Oh. Did you try contacting him?" She asked with concern.

"Yeah but it said that he was out of coverage." I ran my hand through my hair.

"Just give him time. You'll meet him tomorrow you got work." She said trying to assure me.

"Alright. I'll call you when I get to him." I said as I ended the call.

Next Day...

I woke up and went out of my room to get food. Then I saw Phil all sweaty probably because of his daily running routine. We met by the eyes but before I could say something he passed me quickly. Then I lost it.

"Goddamn would you please just talk to me!" I screamed at him which made him turn.

"What do you want?" He looked like he was mad and sad at the same time.

"About yesterday I--" He cut me off.

"Whatever it is keep it. I get it. You told me to get lost and so I did. Happy? I'm easy to talk to. Have a nice day." He stared at me then I started to crumble.

"That's not what I wanted. I need you." I started to tear up.

"I'm sorry for what I said. I just got hurt too." He came to me and hugged me.
