“This is Natalia. Leave your name and number after the beep, and I’ll get back to you.” A loud beep followed soon after, ringing out of my phone's speaker into the empty room.
“Natalia, call me back please,” I muttered into the speaker, probably too close to my mouth, but I didn’t care at this point. “I… there’s something I have to tell you.”
I ended the call, feeling the exact same way as I did yesterday when I left a voicemail on her phone… and the day before… and the day before.
I heaved a sigh, planting my face straight onto the smooth wood of my desk and not even caring as it smooshed my features into the mahogany. Hunched over in an uncomfortable way, I didn’t even have the energy to lift my goddamn face.
How did everything go so wrong so quickly?
