Chapter Text
Pacing back and forth
I don’t know what to do.
“Hey, leave a message.”
Panic sets in.
“We really need to talk..”
Thoughts race, flooding my mind,
“Wait you know what…?”
Say it. Say it just say it.
“Maybe just forget it..”
You know you don’t want to hear his voice again.
“By the time you get this, your number may be blocked.”
Tears in my eyes.
Knives in my heart,
I have to do this.
“And I hate to do this to you on your birthday,”
Maybe I shouldn’t…
“Happy birthday by the way!”
Spit it out. No more dodging.
“I’m not your party favor.”
Relief. Now for the explanation.
“Now I know we could have done it better.”
Deep breath, a sigh, keep going.
“You’ll single out the wrong words.”
Finish it. End the voicemail. End it all.
“Its not you its me and all that other bullshit..”
But…?
“You know thats bullshit, don’t you babe?”
Grand Finale
“I’m not your party favor.”
“Your voicemail has been cut off due to time restraints. Press 1 to hear voicemail, press 2 to try again, press 3 to send voicemail, press 4 to repeat options. Press end call to send message and end call.”
