CASE#12: PRIDE VS ACCEPTING FAULT

[phone rings…]

Ana’s awake. I knew because she sent me a text message an hour ago.

[phone rings…]

I’ve been trying to reach her for an hour. I’ve called her number several times but she never answered.

“y were u calling?”

I just wanted to know if she had her meal before going to work. I called because I care, because I love her. Then I received a text message from her asking why I called. That irritated me.

[Log out]

It’s four in the afternoon.  Ana would be in the office right now. I closed my online messenger because I don’t want to talk. I say things I never meant when I’m irritated.

“y aren’t you online?”

It’s nine in the evening, an hour before I go off from work. She sent me another message why I never contacted her since this morning. I ignored the message. I never said a word to her until my shift ended. I reached my apartment feeling sad. I really wanted to hold her in my arms right now but I wanted to know why she never answered my call.

[sirens wailing…]

I waited until her shift ends. We were scheduled to eat out today. I really wanted to get this over with, talk about what happened and end it on a happy note. An hour and a half later, she never came. She knew I’m still awake because I texted her goodnight an hour ago.

[phone rings…]

She has been calling me for the past hour but I never picked up. I’m just not in the mood to talk.
