I awoke to eleven message notifications from a private number, I knew instantaneously they were from cole. I trudged to the bathroom, phone in hand and gently placed the phone alongside me on the sink. I picked up my purple and white brush, deposited my mint paste on it and began moving my brush from right to left in quick meticulous motions. I've seen lots of videos instructing that the best method of flossing the teeth is in an up and down motion. I've tested that theory but doing it that way is just plain uncomfortable. I clicked on the message, all the while brushing my teeth and switching my focus from the drain hole to my phone's screen.
Private number: saw your pictures on Josh's Instagram story
Private number: and daaamn girl
Private number: you looked spellbinding
Private number: so hypnotizing
Private number: so capable of mass catastrophe
I rolled my eyes as I spat out the excess toothpaste
Private number: you'll ruin me and I don't mind
Private number: you're destroying me already, lol
Private number: I took screenshots of your pictures
Private number: and fell asleep to them
Private number: if you were a religion, I'd forever be steadfast
Private number: I'm making a fool of myself and I don't care
Me: jeez it's not that deep
I replied and began to rinse my mouth with water.
Private number: you think I'm exaggerating
Me: I dunno
Private number: I'm not, I swear
Me: cool, bye
Private number: where are you off to?
Me: the bathroom, I need to prepare for school
I picked up my phone and walked towards my room shrugging off my pajamas and wrapping my blue and brown towel around myself tightly. I heard another ping and i picked up my phone with a groan
Private number: oh, sadly I won't be coming to school
I instantly felt a rising sense of excitement in my chest, dare I believe him, was this some sort of prank? What If i rejoiced too soon ? I decided to quell the growing exhilaration in my chest.
Me: really?
Private number: unfortunately, yes
Me: why?
Private number: it's one of those days I need to assist my dad in the surgical room. Two nurses called in sick
Me: assist him ?
Private number: hand him tools, give little insights. Hand him tidbits of knowledge I've picked up from working in the hospital
Me: doesn't that defy certain hospital protocols?
Private number: the hospital was built funded solely by his money. What he says goes.
Me: okay, cool
