" what should I do, August said I shouldn't go to her place" He said
" And you were going to her place " I said
" No" he said
" Where were you going before I called you " I asked
" I was..... I was ... Just taking a stroll " he said
" Taking a stroll to her house " I said
" I can't help it, I can't just sit back and do nothing " he said
" That's exactly what you will do now " I said
" What?" He exclaimed
" I'll go talk to Debby for you, just sit and wait " I said
" Really, thanks a lot" he said hugging me
I went to Debby's place to see her and we discussed for a while before I brought up the matter.
" No, it's not like that. I only told him to leave because Jacob was angry " she said
" Who is Jacob?" I asked
" My boyfriend " he said
" Well, any boy in his position will be angry. Just don't mind Jason, he can be silly at time "
I said
" Tell him not to worry much, my phone had issues that's why I'm not able to call him" she said
" Alright, I'll surely deliver the message " I said
" How is Andrew?" She asked and I paused
" Andrew who?" I asked
" Annie's brother " she said
" Oh, she's fine. I mean he's fine, I think " I said
" There's no need to make things look awkward. I know you know he's my ex but that's in the past now. Just focus on the present" she said and my phone rang.
" It's Jason calling " I said before picking
" What's taking you so long " he yelled
" Do you want to block my eardrums " I said
" Where are you?" He asked
" At home " I said
" What?" He asked angrily
" I'm at Debby's place dummy " I said
" I don't believe you, you left me seated here waiting like a jobless person" he said and I gave the phone to Debby
" Hey" she said
" Oh Hy Debby " he said
" Don't yell at her, I was the one keeping her waiting " she said
" Oh no problem, I don't mind waiting a bit longer" he said
" Silly boy, I'll release her now " she said giving me back the phone
" I'm on my way already, chill" I said leaving
" So what did she say?" He asked and I explained everything to him
" Oh, I was worried for no reason " he said
" Exactly" I said
" Where are you now?" He asked
"I'm on my way home " I said
" Why?" He asked
" I've told you everything over the phone, what's the use of coming to meet you again " I said
" Okay, thank you so much " he said
" There's no need for that, if it was me in your place you would have done the same " I said
" Huh?"
" OMG, you ungrateful brat. Your reaction shows you wouldn't have done the same" I said and he hang up
" He dare hang up the phone on me, I'll show him what I'm truly made of" I said
By evening, I went to see Trisha at the Ragers and we sat down to talk.
" I'm happy you came" she said and I smiled
" You want anything, coffee, drink, tea?" She asked
" No, I'm good " I said
" Don't be shy with me, I'm a free and fun loving person " she said
" It's obvious but you're still older than me " I said
" True, but still feel free. Take me as your elder sister " she said and my mood changed remembering my siblings.
