I scrambled through the day without taking a break, pushing aside any thoughts of Darryl and Jennifer. Working through my emails and browsing my face book page. Not surprised that she had taken the rest of the day off.
At three o'clock, I cleared my desk anxious to get home and soak in the tub when my phone dances across my desk. I roll my eyes when I see the number and name on the screen.
Adrian
He just won't give up.
I leave it to ring, wishing it was someone I actually wanted to speak to. It rang again and again. On the third try, I answered it.
"Hi"
"What's up" he greeted, his tone confident.
"Nothing much and you?"
I know he was fine. Fucking, drinking, hanging out ever night. Not like if our relationship prevented him anyway.
"I want to see you. Today, if possible."
"No. I am rather busy. Hanging out with Jamie and Trey later this evening." I lied
"Oh, okay. Perhaps some other time." he sounds disappointed."I left your stuff the way you left it. Hoping one day you would come back"
I laughed. He was so funny. How many women have he slept with since I was gone?
Or better yet.
How many women have he slept with since we have been dating?
