Not getting left alone.

The last day that I worked this week was Thursday (I had my best friend’s wedding yesterday; Friday). Between leaving work Thursday afternoon, yesterday and today, I had more phone calls and text messages than I had in the past 2 weeks. Most were from D and the others were from A.

The messages that were from D were asking me if I was ok, to see what happened after work on Thursday, wondering why I was at A’s house….that kinda thing. It was so annoying. I mean, seriously? My boss checking on me about what I was doing with another person after work is crossing the line. He has no business to know what I’m doing outside of work. It’s solely my business…..unless it involves him (which we all know, it does NOT).

A’s messages were just him apologizing to me about not telling me about his deceased wife. He made an attempt to say that since it was something personal, he didn’t tell me at work but because he wants me in his life, he wanted to tell me on Thursday when he arrived home but I found out before he had the chance to say something.

Not too long ago, I received a phone call from an unknown number but I usually don’t answer it. I hit the “end call” button so my phone would stop vibrating. A few seconds later, the unknown number called me again. Hesitatingly, I answered.

“Hello?” I answered sweetly.

“It’s D. Please don’t hang up!”

“D, its 12:45 am. I was dead asleep and yet you had the nerve to wake me up?? For what? To make me dislike you even more??”

“I’m sorry that I’m calling you so late and waking you up. I’ve been wanting to call you all night….I finally had the nerve to after spending half the night drinking.”

“Ok. You called after you drank. You called me after blocking your number just in case I actually looked at my caller id. Now that you called, you can hang up and let me get back to bed. I’ll see you in a few days!”

“Deppgrl……please don’t hang up there’s something I wanted to tell you the afternoon that you came up here to tell me about the operator who made you feel uncomfortable.”

“Look, D, I don’t care what it is at this point. I just want my bed. Good night”

“But……”

“No buts. It’s time for bed and I won’t be thinking of you!”

After hanging up with D, I turned off my cell phone but set the alarm across the room so I can actually get up on time for church.
