I went home thinking of how I will save money for the pizza. I had never taken a pizza before. Don't judge me, my parents always tried their best and we were not that privileged but I can't say I lacked anything. They did an average job both of them. My father was a medical officer earned good money but was a drug abuser and most of his money went to drugs but he was a great dad, paid school fees and was always there compare to my mother's dad who never showed up and didn't take care of anything. My mom on the other hand was an accountant. I admired her alot, she was a tough woman, light skin and pretty gorgeous. She was hardworking though something I don't think I emulated from her. To make it more better she was a planned woman. She had all her life plans at hand and knew where she was, where she was going and her strategies to get to her destination were fixed and she was my hero.
Back to saving. I had a plan though, Valentine's was like 3 weeks to away and I knew I was able to save my pocket money and get the pizza that is if Dylan won't call me to ask for money. I know, I'm stupid, I failed to mention Dylan only called to ask for money when he was broke.
My phone vibrated inside my pocket and I took it to check who was calling. Finally, Dylan decides to call, I hope this isn't about money. I just needed hope that he still loves me as much as I did. I hoped that he still feels the same way, he still finds me attractive. I thought maybe its because I never had sex with him that's why he was avoiding me maybe I never offered enough. Most of the time when we make out and he touches me inappropriately all I did was just back off and say goodbye to avoid sex. Maybe I was just too naive.
"Hello sweety?" I hear his charming voice from the other side. My heart skips and a huge smile moves from ear to ear. All his wrongs are already off my brain again as always. "Hey," I say not knowing what to call him. The memory of telling everyone I'm single comes back. Maybe I shouldn't have. I feel guilty already. Maybe he's now okay with me and we will work this out. Relationship aren't easy and ours in no exception. Ooh God I'm head over heels inlove with this guy, I'm going crazy.
"I'm sorry about not calling you yesterday and also not calling you today till now. You know I love you right?" He asked and I nod. "Yes I do, hows you?"
"I'm great, school is just complicated, I have group discussion every night just to keep up. Campus is hard." He says and I feel pity for him maybe I'm just exaggerating things between us. Maybe I'm an over thinker like he always says. "Ooh, that's good." I say not knowing what to say. 'Why am I lacking words today seriously.' I think.
"Are you okay?" He asks and immediately I hear a girls voice in the background laughing. He's hanging out with a girl. "Yeah, Dylan I am."
"Do you know what name I've saved you with?" He asks and I wonder where that's coming from. "Uh..no."
"I've saved you wifey. What name have you saved me on your phone?" He asks and that delights me. Atleast he still considers me as his wifey. But now I have saved him Dylan. I never really thought of spicing his name up or anything. "Dylan." He's silent. I know he's offended. "Do you love me Daisy?"
"Yes I do, to the sky and back Dylan."
"Then why?"
"Why what?" I asked wondering what he's upset about. "Why not save me as Hubby or Sweetheart or atleast a sweeter name or maybe its because you have somebody else."
"Hell no! Dylan I....I just never thought of changing that name that's all if you want I will change I promise I'll send you a screenshot showing the change." I said. He's so ridiculous he called me to tell me to change his name.
"It's okay, anyway I am so hungry and I'm going to sleep hungry today." He says and I immediately know what this is. I was wrong he doesn't love me he's just joking with my mind as always. "Why?" I ask lamely. "I am broke my parents promised to send me money yesterday and nothing till now. I tried calling them but they are broke too." He says and pity fills me. I can't watch my boyfriend sleep hungry. Relationship are hard and ours is not an exception I try to convince myself. It's just sort of long distance relationship, one feels insecure alot but he loves me he just called even though its money plus I should change his name for real.
