proof she is eager to catch up
call me at four o’clock she said
I have depression
I will not answer until four
but I am eager to hear from you
We need to catch up!
Sure, I think.
That is only seven hours from now.
I eat breakfast, lunch, take a nap.
Set the timer for 3:55.
Bathroom quickie.
At precisely four o’clock I dial.
4:01 dial
4:02 dial
4:03 dial.
in my phone it says call cancelled under each call
I am wondering if she is still eager to catch up?
