The Butterfly Girl: A Star is Born

Waiting...

[Sophia]

I woke up at home the next morning, having no recollection of what happened last night. I felt groggy, but I was able to force myself out of bed. I took my phone with me downstairs, flopped on the couch, turned on the TV for some morning cartoons and checked my phone for any new notifications. I had a message from Apollo.

Going out to the lake. BRB Bro, u doin' okay? You've been out for a while.

I didn't get an immediate reply, and I still wasn't concerned. I'm a patient person and waiting for confirmation doesn't make me any more worried. If anything, I just brushed it off and thought he wanted to stay out at the lake a little while longer.

I resumed my game, hoping he might get back to me while I was in-between matches. After a long while of radio silence, I decided to wrap up my game after a couple more matches and head out to the lake to see if he was okay. My best guess was he was probably at the tree house taking a break.
