It seems the whole world revolves around the concept of love & affection. But, how does this complex concept work for someone who isn't connected with his emotions? People warm up to the idea that everyone needs love, yet there are some people are...

I could only feel the softness of my own bed. My head turning to briefly on the other side of the pillow to feel that sudden rush of coldness. At that exact moment, I did not care of the time. It's not like I had any plans or anything today, so sleeping all day was not out of the equation. As my consciousness slowly waned out. . .
" BUZZ BUZZ BUZZ RINGG RINGG " My phone loudly emitted from its speakers. I just choose to ignore it as was more than likely a spam call. Naturally after a few seconds, it was completely silent again.
Ahh, here we go again. Sleep at last. . Hopefully, I can dream about being rich or moving to the opposite side of the world. That's when my mind began to go blank once more. .
" RING RING BUZZ BUZZ RING " There goes my phone again, being the loud piece of shit it was.
" WHAT THE HELL DO YOU WANT!? " I silently shouted to myself, picking up the phone. Oh.. it was from Brian.. Should I ignore it again? I really don't have to mental strength to deal with him right now. I decided to answer anyways. This was truly a death wish.
" Titan! How you doing bud?? I figured you'd try to sleep the whole day. So, how about we go somewhere and hang out? " Brian obnoxiously said through the phone.
It took me a while to process the information he just said. Go outside? Why would I do that when I could just stay inside and sleep? But, he invited me and declining would be a tad rude. Maybe I should ask him his plans.
" Where do you even want to go? If you just want to lollygag around then count me out. I have more pressing matters to attend to be than hang around with an idiot like you. " Sighing slightly afterwards, rolling across my bed.
" Lets see.. We could go to the beach!? Or, how about a movie?! MAYBE WE COULD GO PICK UP SOME GIRLS!? " You could just hear the excitement from his voice.. especially the last suggestion.
" Do you really think I would go with you to pick up girls? Especially after.. " I stopped myself from continuing. I really wasn't in the mood to start thinking about things.. Besides, what time is it? Looking at my wall clock, it was around 12:45pm.
" Fin- " I began to start my sentence before I was interrupted by Brian.
" Look man. That happened years go, you have to let it go. As your best friend, I have the right to help you forget about the past and enjoy life. You're already a twenty two year old college student. The college life is great! You have..
GIRLS, ALL THE PRETTY COLLEGE BABES.. ESPECIALLY THE BLONDES, BRUNENETTES.. THE ONES WITH BIG BREAST, NICE WAIST, PLUMP BOOTIES, AND-
*BEEP*
Yep, I sure did hang up on him. As I said earlier, I did not have the mental strength to deal with him. Besides, who cares? He's only a year older than me and he thinks he's so wise. That just ruined my entire mood to sleep, I didn't want to potentially think about those things and have a nightmare. I pushed myself out my bed, laying down on the floor. My eyes focusing on the ceiling. It felt like seconds, but seconds became minutes. My mind was a mess. Was it finally time to come in terms with happened? Maybe Brian was right, maybe I am trapped in the past.
My mind soon came back to my body when I heard a knock on my window. Who could that have been? I know my parents are at work then.. It finally hit me, I turned around to see Brian's face mushed against my window.
" TITIAN!!! WHY DID YOU HANG UP ON ME?? " Brian yelling through my window, fake tears flowing down his eyes. It was kinda obvious that they weren't real tears. It was probably eye drops or water, but I pushed my hands against the floor to push myself up off the floor. Stretching my arms outwards, I headed to the window by my bed. As I slowly opened the window, he immediately climbed through like a wild animal who just saw a hunter coming for his life.
" Why are you here? And why didn't you use the door like a normal person? "I asked him, but soon answered it myself. That's something Brian would do honestly. His hand landing onto my black mid-length hair to just rub it. It's not like I combed it but still..
" Come on Depresso, get ready. We are going out somewhere. I will grab you in your underwear and T-shirt and take you out right now if you refuse. " Brian said in a semi serious tone. I forgot he could get like this sometimes.
" FINE! Give me a few minutes and I'll be ready." I responded in a slight whisper. Brian only nodded and left my room.
That's when I dragged my feet into the bathroom. I had no intention to head outside, but I don't want people to see me in this attire. Brushing my teeth, combing my now messy black hair, and soon was just staring at the mirror. I haven't done this in a while. Brown eyes, smooth skin, and pinkish lips was something even I forgot I had.
I began to dress myself, wearing a plain black T-shirt and grey sweatpants. I wore my black and grey slip on Vans since they were really comfy. I made sure to bring my phone, earbuds, wallet, and keys.
After getting dressed, I headed out the living room area to see Brian ransacking my fridge. He had a Pepsi in his right hand and a cold sandwich in his left.
" What exactly are you doing? " I whispered following a soft sigh.
" Uh.. I got hungry..? " That cheeky smile he made a soft smile showed no guilt at all.
" Put it back, I'll buy us some food when we head out. " I told him, his eyes sparkling like a woman when she meets her hero.
" I LOVE YOU TITAN!! " He gave me a hug, rubbing the hair I just combed.
" Anyways, lets go. " I told him as I headed to the door. He followed behind me as I opened the door.
We both walked out at the same time, locking the door behind us. What I didn't notice is that he still had the Pepsi and sandwich in his hand..
I was too tired to even care, so I just let him be. But, I was somewhat excited to head out. It's been too long since I went outside on a day off.
