I was saved by the bell or my notification bell you could say as beeping sounds billow from my handbag. It was lying somewhere on the couch.
William took the courtesy and fetched it from me.
As always, I avoid his gaze when he hands over the bag to me.
"Thanks." I fish out my phone as fast as I can.
A smile filters my face. It was a message from my boyfriend. We are meeting for a late lunch date.
I quickly ordered a Lyft.
"I have to go, sorry." I was up on my feet before William could react.
"See you tomorrow." He shot at me.
I paused before it clicked. We have orchestra practice tomorrow.
"Yeah, bye." Didn't look at him, but I could feel him staring at me.
My legs carried me out of his house faster into the Lyft I ordered.
I don't know what transpired between us today. I know it's a warning to stay away from him and end these meetups but a stupid part of me wants to know what this will result in.
