Sin De Rella

MY GUT clenched. That son of a bitch hurt Arella and messed up her head. Now she left angry and possibly wouldn’t talk to me again. What the fuck was I thinking? I dialed Brett immediately. Gladly, he picked up like he was expecting my call. /"Yep?/"

/"I want Arella’s number,/" I quickly said what I wanted.

I groaned, /"I thought you need my help. I need it now, Rogue./"

I ended the call after he agreed. I waited for him to send his sister’s number. After a few minutes of agony, I took a deep breath, trying to come up with a better idea of how to apologize before I made the call.

My heart leaped when she answered quickly. But there was something off in her voice and thought the call was from her brother.

/"You should’ve checked first before you answered, lo—/" The line went off.

Fuck! She hung up on me. Great! Just great.
