jorges pov

benji and i had just parted ways and on my walk home my mind was racing a mile a minute
what if they forgot me ?
what if they didn't wanna be reached ?
what if they longed for me to lose the number like i longed for them to have changed it
but that was not the case at all

third person pov

jorge sat with his finger hovering over the call button
one slight move and he'd click it
and that was it
he had been sick of being scared
he clicked the button and waited impatiently to find out whether the person had the same number or not
after three or so rings he was met with a person on the other line

'hello?' the voice asked

'um hi' jorgesighed, the person seemed nice but doesn't everyone when you originally call

'who might this be ? have we met' the other had spoken on the other line

'uh my names jorge, jorge dicenta' the boy sighed as he heard a gasp on the other end

'oh my god, hi' the boy said excitement laced in his voice

'uh this is lou lou right?' jorge asked hesitantly, he hadn't heard his voice in years. last he heard it he was small

'yes yes, hi oh my god' the now identified voice said

'how have you been' jorge asked starting to feel more comfortable

'good oh my god, jey i'm so sorry' the boy said

'fo-or what' jorge didn't mean to stutter it just sorta happened and he wished it wouldn't have

'i told them not to leave you, they claimed it was for the better' the boy on the other line said

'why'd they leave, i often long for them to return but i figured it was to late' the boy spoke honestly, there was zero need to lie to his own blood

'they left for a business trip jey, or that's what they called it. reality is they said you'd be better off without them. they felt that had failed you, you loved makeup and everything about it and they wanted to buy more and more for you. but they couldn't keep up with bills, they tried. they tried for you. they left me too.....only i was prepared, unlike you i had gotten my friend to take me him. you have what you need right ?' the shaky voice on the other line explain explained

'yeah i have what i need, i uh also met a bo-oy' the boy said

'ooooOoO he cute ?' his brother giggled

'yeah he's cute' jorge spoke chuckling to himself
he's never actually admitted that to himself or anyone

'hey i live about a few miles north from where we used to live, are you still there or' the other wondered aloud

'yes, if you would be down.....wanna come over' jorge asked

'yes oh my god yes, please' lou lou practically blew the boys ear drums

'come over now, please' jorge chuckled

'yes okay, i'll be there soon. love you' the other spoke quickly

'love you too' jorge smiled contently tho the other couldn't see it
