A Kiss of Goodbye

17: Take Me Now!

                   I glanced over the phone's screen to see who it is, and Dang! Hades take me now. I am so embarassed at the moment. -"Sorry sir, I'll just make a way to get this back to Greggor in any way possible." I hastily said "Ok, thank you dear!" Gregg's father replied in a calmer tone.

                   I need to think of a way to get this back to him without him getting back in my apt. I still can't imagine seeing him sooner?! Think! Think! -"Think, you'll think of something girl!" I cheered on myself.

                     I'm sure he still can access his social media with another device. A laptop or a tablet maybe? So I went on to search for his previous message. -"Do. Me. Some. Favor. Tech!" I told my phone as I shake it hahhaha! You are weird Aevey, real weird. I mentally said. -"There you are, Greggor!" I said in victory as if it was that hard, I could have simply typed his name in search box but I didn't.

                   -"Hi, you left your phone under my bed last night." I hesitantly typed the last four words but I carried on anyway. -"I didn't notice it until your father called. Just give me an address and I'll have this delivered to you. I'm really busy right now that I have no time to hand this personally to you." I read it four times, no seven times just to make sure it looks reasonable and mature. And I tapped the send button.

                  I didn't give it much thought after a while. I am listening to some music and sing a long with it. I almost forgot when a notification sound popped up in the middle of my music marathon. I don't know if it's the right word "marathon" listening to music but it feels like it. Most of the songs that randomly plays, they bring a multitude of sad memoirs that I can't sometimes utter them without feeling a lump in my throat.

                  -"2110 Eastwing, Green Residences" I read his message. "Thanks, Aevey and sorry for the clumsiness. Just put it in cash upon delivery. Thanks!" -"Don't worry about it. I'll send this right away and will inform you the tracking number." I replied and logged out.

                       I immediately called for an item courier to get this done as soon as possible. It didn't take much long and the delivery guy picked up my package. Good thing they have this cash upon delivery service, it is more convenient this way.

                       I went back online and send him the details. Without waiting for his reply I turned off my phone to finally take a nap. It's 2:45 pm and I want to take a partial rest. I can still make this short time left as lovely as possible before dusk.

                       -"I hate you! I.., hate you!!!" I screamed and sobbed. My eyes are wet and my chest is heavy. That was surreal. I broke free from the trance and opened my eyes. I didn't move. I am trying to recall my dream. After giving it much thought, I sighed in defeat. I couldn't trace and connect the dots from my dream. Those words are the only thing I can remember.

                    4:10 pm, as I read the clock from my phone. I slowly got up from bed and realized I don't have much food left for the week. I need to get groceries this time.

                  I prepped myself, took a cab and went to the store. It's packed with mob shoppers like me preparing for the week to come.
