Ummm… That Was Awkward.

23 August 2008 2 Comments

Ok… Picture this. You’re at work, minding your own business, doing whatever it is you do and you just happen to answer the phone because hey… You’re that kind of person… You’ll actually pick up an overflow call even though you don’t have to… You’ll pick it up just because… And on the other end you hear…

“Hi (insert your name here),

Is my brother around???”

Immediately you recognize the voice as none other than your ex… Not just any ex… But theeee ex, the one that ripped your heart out and broke it into a million pieces, than taped it back together again so she could break it again.

In short… the one you thought would be the last…

Your heart immediately starts beating faster, your stomach comes up in the back of your throat, your palms start to sweat and you manage to stammer out…

“Uhhhh… Yeah sure… Uhhhh hold on a sec…”

How can she be so casual???

How can she be so calm???

Ok… Ok… Get it together, act casual…

“Hold on one sec, I’ll transfer you over.”

And like that it’s over… You’re left dazed and confused, staring at the phone in your office wondering about things that could’ve been… Should’ve been had you been better, stronger… Had you been honest…

I loved her…

Truth be told I still do… I probably always will…

Note to self… Stop answering the fucking phone at work dumb ass!!!

I’m Just Sayin’…
