"Karma I have something to tell you.."
I fiddle around with my clammy fingers nervously looking at the pavement.
"I- u-um," I couldn't let the words flow out of my mouth, it's like my mouth was shut and all the thoughts I had vanished and I couldn't think of anything I wanted to say.
"Well I-" before I could say anything my phone began ringing. I inwardly groan as I check my phone to see my mom calling me.
"What?" I answer rather harshly, something I wold never do and If I did my mom would slap me.
"Lose the attitude young lady I'm calling you at 8:30 in the morning I'm rather tired," 'then why'd she call' I sweat drop. "I was calling because me and your father miss you!"
I smile and silently wished that she would've called later because all I wanted to do was get this confession over with.
"Well it's 11:30 pm over here so you're timing couldn't be more perfect."
"Sweetie I told you to take those Insomnia pills-"
"I don't need those pills, I'm fine!" I cut her off.
Karma raises an eyebrow looking over at me as I mouth who I was calling. He takes my phone and puts in on speaker.
"Karma is that you? Oh my it is! How are you doing?" Her scolding voice turned into a doting motherly voice.
"I'm doing great! How about you guys? How's California?" He asks acting like we we weren't just having an intense conversation. I roll my eyes and lay down in the pavement. It was uncomfortable but I could see the shining stars under the night sky. I tuned their voice for a while.
Should I confess? Of course I have to! You can't back out now, what if he rejects me?! Then I'll play it off as I was just kidding. That would be even more embarrassing.
