Trouble

Hearing this from my dad worried me. I hadn’t talked to Candi in a while, and was hoping that something bad hadn’t happened while I was away.
I ran up to my room and picked up the phone, dialing Candi’s number. It rang several times, and she picked up.
“Hello?”
“Hey, Candi. I-”
The line clicked before I could finish my sentence.
“Candi..?”
I frowned and redialed her number. This time she didn’t answer, and I didn’t feel like leaving a voicemail.

I got on the computer about an hour later. Rose was offline, but I saw Candi…
ColdplayFan08: Hey…
LilGirl12X5: Hey, I’m sorry for hanging up on you like that, but I still don’t really feel like talking to you.
It hurt to know she resented me and I had no idea why.
ColdplayFan08: Why?! What have I done?
LilGirl12X5: It’s not what you’ve done. It’s what you haven’t done. You haven’t answered my phone calls, you haven’t bothered calling me back, and ever since you’ve been with Rose, you’ve been different…
