Abandoned or not?

Chapter 27

The truth was that I was so exhausted but curiosity had the best of me because I wanted to know what exactly was so urgent that he had to call me five times.

We were both silent most of the time. I didn't know when he asked a question.

"Is everything okay? Are you okay?"

I grimaced, not knowing how to reply to his questions.

"Yeah, I'm good. Why?"

"After you were done with your shift, you left without informing me. That is so unlike you." I facepalmed and realized that there was no way I could have thought about saying goodbye with the way I was feeling. My insides were shattering due to the strong words of my supposed role model. Nobody could have understood that because they were just minding their business.

Derek for example, it was bad for me to have left like that. "I should've let him know that I was leaving…Fuck!"

After the reminder, all I could say was. "I'm sorry. I was really in a hurry. I had to rush home because something came up. I'm so sorry."
