"I've tried texting him. I don't know what's happening" I panic.

"Calm down Brandy" Audrey says.

"How the fuck can I calm down when he just left me without a warning?"

I slam my phone on the table before I take it out on something else.

"WHAT THE FUCK" I yell out.

"Hey calm down kiddo just calm down"  Donny says entering the living room.

"I can't"

"What was the last thing you two talked about?"

"We were on FaceTime last night, I must've fallen asleep. He hasn't texted since this morning" I explain.

"He's probably busy?" Audrey reasons.

"I guess so? But that's not like him" I reason.

"You just met him a few days ago" Donny says.

"Okay but that's enough to know who he is" I state.

"Did you try contacting Coco?" Audrey asks.

"Yes, no reply either"

"There, they're together so maybe they're busy" she replies.

"How long ago was that?" Donny asks me this time.

"An hour ago"

"Well then check again" he suggests.

I don't see anything from him. He isn't answering my texts. That's so unlike him.

"I'm scared" I blurt out.

"Hey hey don't be. I'm sure he's fine. He's probably too busy to answer anyone right now" Audrey says trying to sooth me.

"I'm overreacting aren't I?"

"You are" Donny says.

"Damn I've never-"

"Felt this way? It's okay" Audrey finishes for me.

"Yeah but it's been a day" I reason.

"Call Coco maybe she'll give you answers" Audrey adds.

I try calling Coco but nothing. I'm just really worried at this point. I don't want to bother her and annoy her in the process.

"Doesn't he have another sister?" Donny asks.

"Slyvie" I answer.

"Shes mostly busy so I'm not sure" I add.

"Just ask her who knows" Audrey says.

"Yeah okay"

I find Slyvie on Instagram and decide to dm her.
