Avni – hello?

Neil – hi, Neil here.

Oh so this is the name of that rude guy' she thought before saying;

Avni – Neil who?

Neil – Neil the guy who called you an idiot.

Avni – oh, it's you.

She said because she didn't really know what else to say to that.

Neil – yeah it's me.

Avni – so, not to sound rude or anything, but why are you calling me?

Neil – well....

He fumbles suddenly getting cold feelings in the knees.

He is regretting calling her now.

Avni – well?
She asked impatiently, arching one of her perfect brows up.

Neil – I remembered.
He said feeling entirely too stupid.

Avni – remembered? Remembered what?
She asked now feeling entirety too clueless as to where the conversation is going.

Neil – yes, I remember what happened between us.
He answered biting his lips, still regretting making the call.

Avni – oh, and?
She asked because she has nothing else to say.

Neil – and what? I just thought to tell you that.

Avni – seriously?
Avni asked incredulously.

Neil – yeah?

Avni –okay, so now that you have told me, bye.

She said feeling very annoyed with the call and Neil himself.

Neil – wait!

Avni – now what?

Neil – well, I thought that maybe I should apologize also.
He said feeling sheepish with his other hand ruffling his hair.

Avni – you thought?
She said with surprise and confusion.

Neil – yeah, I did.
He affirmed.

Avni – so...

She started hoping he will understand that she is waiting for him to apologize to her.

Neil – so yes, I am sorry but it was not really my fault that I called you an idiot. It is yours actually.
He said quickly wanting to get done with the conversation as soon as possible.

Avni – mine? How is it my fault?
Avni asked incredulously. All ready to argue with him because he is annoying her so much at that moment.

Neil – well it was you that called me by 12am. I mean, what do you expect when you disturb a guy who is trying to sleep at midnight? A tired guy at that. I didn't even know I called you an idiot. I didn't really realize I said it. It came out subconsciously.
