Lauren
It was too late to back out. I had already put this poor girl through so much, and, plus, I did miss her. I just still couldn't believe I had told her I would call her. If we were just chatting on the phone about life, then, sure, we would call all we wanted; but I honestly had no idea what would go down on this call.
I remembered how Camila had texted me the night before, just when I was starting to think we'd never speak again...

C: Hey
C: Look I know you're busy or whatever is happening but can we please talk? I promise I won't bite
C: I just saw Brad lol
C: If that helps get your attention
I couldn't help but smile at the phone screen. God, I did miss her, and I felt like such a jerk for ghosting her without an explanation, but I wasn't ready to hear that she might have feelings for me again or that anything Lucy had said was true. Regardless, I couldn't keep leaving her in the dark like this.
L: Lmao where'd you see Brad
I chose the easy topic.
C: London
C: Wembley Stadium to be exact
C: It was a little weird...and he may or may not try to call your or something lol
L: What??? What did you do?😂😂
C: I did what I do best
C: I sort of panicked😂
L: You are pretty good at that😉
C: You're pretty good at NOT ANSWERING YOUR PHONE FOR A WEEK
And there it was. I was glad she was sort of taking a joking approach to it, but it still meant I had to acknowledge it.
L: Lol yeah sorry it's been busy
C: Has it?
L: Yes...?
C: It's always busy
L: What does that mean
C: It means there was no reason for you to suddenly stop talking to me
C: Or at least that 'being busy' wasn't the reason
C: I'm not stupid
C: But I am confused and I would love to understand what's going on
L: Look I can't really talk right now
C: Well when can you?
C: If you're planning on ghosting me again then don't
C: Just tell me you want nothing to do with me anymore and I'll leave you alone
L: That's not it Camila
L: Can I call you tomorrow? I'm free in the afternoon
C: I think so
L: Ok...tty tomorrow
L: Goodnight❤️
C: Night💞
