-The Next Morning

°Rain

I Stared At My Phone As I Hesitated To Dial Linda's Number, I Have A Strange Feeling That She Might Send Me Straight To Voicemail Or Will She Answer And Say Don't Call Her. We Haven't Spoke Since Our Little Fight.

"Fuck It Here Goes Nothing."

I Pressed The Number As It Dialed, I Sighed And Put The Phone To My Ear.

"Hello?" She Answered.

"Hey Good Morning."

"Good Morning."

The Line Was Silent For A Few Seconds..This Is Weird.

"So How Are You?"

"Fine And Yourself?"

"Same."

Once Again The Line Was Silent..This Is So Awkward.

"Look Lin, I Wanna Apologize For What Happened The Other Day."

I Heard Her Sigh.

"Look I Don't Have Any Bad Blood With You. However I Will Say This I Am Tired Of Arguing With You Over The Same Stuff..So I Accept Your Apology But I No Longer Want To Talk About Your Relationship Issues. Those Are Your Problems You Deal With It."

Well Damn.

"Umm Okay That's Fair No Worries It Won't Happen Again."

"Thank You. I Gotta Go Now."

What?

"Wait Wait Wait You Wanna Get A Drink Later Or Something?"

"No. I Gotta Go."

And With That She Hung Up. In Her Voice I Can Feel It That She's Still Mad Over The Argument..I Thought She Would Be Over It By Now. Shit I Am. My Phone Then Started Ringing It Was Malcolm Shit I Forgot To Call Him Back Yesterday.

"Hello?" I Answered.

"Are You Alive?"

He Didn't Sound Mad Or Anything.

"Yes."

"Are You Sure Because I Haven't Heard From You."

"I Know I'm So Sorry My Apologies I Have Just Been So Caught Up With Work."

I Don't Even Know Why I Just Lied To Him Right Now.

"Yeah Ight."

The Way He Said That Came Off Like He Was Irritated..Why Did He Say It Like That?

"What's Wrong?" I Frowned.

"I Just Feel Like You Made A Lame Ass Excuse Right Now."

Wait Hold Up.

"And How Did I Do That? I Said I Was Caught With Work."

"So You Mean To Tell Me That You Were So Busy That You Couldn't Even Pick Up Your Phone And Shoot Me A Text Real Quick?"

I Mean....Well He Kinda Had A Point There.

"You're Right I'm Sorry."

"I Bet."

He's Real Life Giving Me The Cold Shoulder Right Now...Over Not Calling Him Back. He's Being Such A Cry Baby Right Now.

"Malcolm What's Really Your Problem?"
