He kept calling and texting.
Every day, he called and when I wouldn't pick up, he would text me.
He took care not to blow up my phone though. He would call once a day with the corresponding text message and the next day, there would be another one.
I wasn't supposed to be reading all those texts, but I read them anyway.
I would open up the texts even when I was with Reuben, not caring if he saw them but he never looked at my phone once.
There was never a time when Reuben suspected any deceit on my part and it made me feel terrible because I was already considering replying to Tobi's texts and going back to my vomit.
Feelings for Tobi that I had buried within me began to rise to the surface.
When I would kiss or make out with Reuben, it would be his face that I would see instead of Reuben.
I tried fighting those recurring feelings for as long as I could but eventually, I lost the fight.
