you're the ingrate

" I told you it's a good idea" August said as Michael hang up the call

" Thanks bro" Michael said

" What's up with you" Michael asked Jason who was laying down in bed staring at his phone

" Are you waiting for someone to call or you're waiting for a reply" August asked

" Yeah, she's not replying to my messages " Jason said

" Who exactly?, Belle or Debby " Michael asked

" Debby " he said

" Why?" August asked

" After what happened last night, she hasn't replied " he said

" What happened?" Michael asked

" I took her out for some fresh air, so we decided to get ice cream and we ran into her boyfriend. He was acting so rudely with her and I couldn't stop myself from intervening. He almost hit me but I dodged then he hit his head on the pole and he started bleeding. And I wanted to check if he was okay but Debby told me to leave I was trying to explain things but she yelled at me to go so I went. I've been texting her since then if all is well but she's not replying " he said

" Maybe you should go and see her" Michael said

" That's a bad idea, just wait till she turn up" August said

" I just wanna get some fresh air " Jason said putting on his clothes

" Don't go to her" August said as he left

We went out to eat and I saw Jason walking opposite the road.

" Excuse me " I said leaving the table

" Where are you going?" Beth asked

" Jason" I said as I rushed out of the restaurant.

" Hey, Jason " I called out at the top of my lungs and he turned and saw me.

" I'm coming " I said crossing the road and then something fell from my pocket and I bent to pick it

" What's this silly girl doing, does she has a death wish " he thought as he dragged me from the road and I lost balance and I placed my hands on his chest as he held me in place.

" Um. Um" he cleared his throat and I removed my hand

" Why did you drag me like that, what of I fell down and died" I said

" Ungrateful brat, you could have had a much painful death if you were hit a car" he said

" And who told you I'll get hit by a car" I said

" You just bent down in the middle of the road to do what, take a selfie " he said

" My key fell and I wanted to..... Wait I don't owe you an explanation. And you're the ingrate here, I rushed all the way here to meet you I even left my meal and here you are venting your anger on me" I said

" I'm not venting....." He was saying before I turned my back at him to leave

" Hold up " he said dragged me back

" What is it" I asked facing him and he embraced me in his arms.

" Is everything okay?" I asked

" Can we just stay like this for a while" he said

" Sure" I said patting his back

After some minutes, he released me from his embrace.

" What happened, do you wanna talk about it?" I said gesturing him to the seat few distance away. We went to sit and he told me about Debby and last night with her boyfriend.

" First of all, you took her out on a date" I said

" It's not a date" he said

" Really, walking at night, talking, eating Ice cream an all that. That's a date dummy" I said hitting him on the head

" Ouch, that hurts but it's not a date. I mean both of us did the same few nights back" he said

" That's a different case" I said

" Why is it so different?" He asked

" I don't know, but as I was saying secondly you intervened in her and her boyfriend fight and thirdly she thinks you injured her boyfriend and you expect her to reply your text" I said
