beastly
After a horrendous day at work I miss a call from D. He texts an hour later, “Can I call you now?” Of course! We are tying up plans for a campout this weekend. We talk for almost 30 minutes. The food, what do I need to bring….details. He talks about letting a few friends know that we’ll be out camping, in case they want to stop by.
Fair weathers. I’m not happy about it, but I don’t say anything except, “Do I have to feed them?” No, of course not. Who knows if they’ll stop by.
He tells me that he’s camping even though a good friend’s boyfriend has passed away and the funeral will likely be this weekend. What can I say but, “If you need to cancel…”
He won’t though. He’ll call me back about 10 minutes after the first call. The weather is supposed to deteriorate. He has a plan B – a hotel on the west coast. He tells me that he wants to be with me.
He’s making an effort….I have to give him credit for that…
