The Next Day

12:54pm

Riley

It was the first day of Christmas break and I didn't want to leave my bed. I didn't have to worry about school or getting up early. I could just stay in all day and relax and that's exactly what I planned on doing today.

Amaru and I had a major argument last night and I didn't even know how to feel. I poured my feelings out to him and I expected it to go a completely different way than it did but it ended up making me look foolish and that's exactly what I was afraid of.

I grabbed my phone from the side of me and I had a bunch of missed calls and a couple text from Amaru. I hesitantly opened the messages and read them.

Bestie🤪 - Can we please talk Ri?

Bestie🤪- It's important.

Bestie🤪- When you wake up, call me.

Bestie🤪- Because, I really need to talk to you.

I was afraid of what he would say to me and I really didn't want to face the truth but I knew that I would have to talk to him sooner or later.

I locked my phone and got up from bed then searched my closet for something to wear. I ended up deciding to wear my Christmas one piece. It was red with white Christmas trees on it but it fit me snug enough to be cute. After finding what I wanted to wear, I went to the bathroom to shower and brush my teeth. It took about 45 minutes for me to complete both. When I was finished I walked out of my bathroom with my towel on.

"Hey Ri." Amani said startling me.

"Mani." I gasped holding my chest.

"Why you so scared? You ain't living right." She said laughing.

"What are you doing here?" I asked.

"I'm always here." She shrugged, plopping down onto the bean bag chair.

"Is Amaru here too?" I asked nervously and she shook her head no.

"Good." I said to myself.

"He dropped you off?" I added and she nodded her head yes.

"He said he'd be right back though." She said looking up from her phone and I nodded.

"Did he tell you anything about last night?" I asked.

"Of course." She laughed, looking at me knowingly.

"What did he say?" I asked desperately.

"Oh, nothing." She smiled.

"Mani." I whined.

"I can't say anything." She whined.

"Whatever."

I went into my closet and put on my one piece. I then grabbed my white slippers and slid them onto my feet. I fluffed my hair out and it was now curly from the humidity in the shower.
