Unsent Texts Novels & Stories

Hey. The message sent. I ended the night without a response.

I see one missed call from Ian and a text from five minutes ago. Ian Quinn: Where are you? I frowned at his text then noticed the text I typed a few hours ago is still in my inbox. Shoot, I forgot to send it after bringing Hannah her hair brush. I canceled the text I’d written to tell him I was staying over at Hanna’s today. Reconstructed the message with the right tenses this time. Me: At Hannah’s. She’s upset, will update you later. Staying with her tonight. I hit send and it shows the text is received and read seconds later. I wait a few moments for a reply, when none comes I take my phone with me back to the leaving room.

Instead I send back a single message. Alex- See you tonight. "

You’re mine and always will be. Press 1 to save the message Message saved.

It was a text from an unknown number. “Guess who?"

it's just been complete silence from him and I didn’t know what to do. Scrolling through my phone, I looked over all the messages I had sent him. Almost instantly I had replied to his ‘’goodbye’’ message; Huh? What? What are you talking about?? Xx - Not Sent But it wouldn’t go through. I tried sending it a bunch of times, but each time, It just came back with the ‘’unable to send’’ notification’. Toby, please, just explain what is going on! Xx - Not Sent

A few minutes pass, and I don't respond. His text comes again. [We have a lot of unfinished business.]

I'd texted him that evening saying, 'Hey, something urgent just came up. I'm sorry but I have to cancel.' That was about ten minutes after I'd texted, 'So excited about tonight! I've decided to cook for you so please don't eat anything. My address is: xxxx xxxx xxx' I'm a coward because I'd sent him a text message to cancel instead of calling him. I'd been ashamed because what was I going to say this time? I said I was going to make it up to him and now I was cancelling again.
