How God Called It [Being Edited And ON HOLD]

The Talk

[Happiness' POV]

Today I not only maddened my best friend but I let her down and spoke of her personal affairs with our classmates. I was trying to get her to talk to me and maybe enlighten the mood but the outcome was the total opposite. I feel so bad. The last thing she needed was what happened today during break. Her heart broke after Martha willingly made Thanksgiven jealous. It broke for two reasons: 1. She still loves him, although she knows she deserves better. To my namesake, just because you dumped a person doesn't mean you're over them. And to be over them, doesn't always mean you have had the closure.

2. She despises revenge. No matter who the person in question is. They say, 'revenge is best served cold', she says 'revenge is best served by acknowledged self worth.' Meaning that she lives her life, finds a way to heal and move on but doesn't block your calls or whatsoever. She says you don't have to block out the hurt thinking you're healing, rather embrace the hurt and get over it. After all, pain is weakness leaving your body. All her words not mine.

She often gets confused that, church is full of girls claiming to be in need of God only, but seek spouses over God more often than not, after being broken by the outside world, while clubs are full of girls not in need of spouses claiming that they're cool without boyfriends/spouses and what not.. Yet they're more often than not running after guys with money or the status. She always wondered, who was fooling who there. Hence she chooses to embrace whatever she goes through.. Though all in her own way.

I should call her and apologize for today. She didn't want to brag about Reign.. Instead I spilled the beans, our classmates bragged and even made Tee jealous. After that, she just had her day ruined. It's bad enough that her and Dinny are not to terms due to their different schedules and moreover because Dinny expects namesake to stick with Tee. Now I had to force her to admit what she didn't want and worse, in front of people who dislike her. Yeah.. I played it out quite niice today. (Note the sarcasm.)

Ring ring.. Ring ring.. Ring ring.. Ring ring.. Ring rin- You have reached the voicemail light service of-
I cut the call. I hope she's not avoiding me. Let me try her again..
Ring ring.. Ring ri-

Bestie: "Friend.." She said as she answered her phone.
Me: "Hey babe, how are you?" I ask even though I'm not ready for the answer.
Bestie: "I'm good thanks bestie. To what do I owe this pleasure?" She asks. "Babe, I don't mean to be rude I'm still on a phone call with Reign" She explains.
Me: "Oh-okay hun. I just wanted us to talk.. Uhh- that's all." I say feeling bad that I disturbed her session with Reign.
Bestie: "Okay hun. Please hold on a minute" She says.
Me: Before I could answer, all I hear is : Your call has been placed on hold, please wait. Your call has been placed on hold, please wait. Your call has been placed on hold, plea-
Bestie: "Sorry about that friend. I just wanted to tell Reign that I'm on the phone with you." She says. "Hun, let me call you back since well I waisted your airtime by-" She says and before she hangs up, I cut her off..

Me: "No friend. I insist. It's fine. You were on a phone call. It's understandable." I say to her. "Friend I called to apologize for today and talk." I tell her.
Bestie: "Apologize for what now?" She asks. "You did nothing wrong babe." She assures me.
Me: "Had it not been for me pressuring you to talk about you and Reign love, Soft wouldn't have overheard you saying those words. Our classmates wouldn't have chirped in on the convo, Martha wouldn't have rubbed it in Tee's face and you certainly wouldn't have had the attention you got as the girls twerked and sang your name. I'm sorry friend." I say to her sighing.
Bestie: Sighs."You're right friend. Soft caught my words, not yours. I'm the one who's words were being added or turned into that chaos. Not yours babe. But I forgive you Happy. Mainly for telling the girls about the constant luncheons. It's all good friend." She says. I know she's lying.
