Lily’s POV:
Once again, I tried calling my best friend,
And once again, she refused to answer the call.
There wasn’t even a busy tone on the other end of the line, just a flat silence as Sylvia alowed the call to ring out on its own. This was the first time my best friend had ever purposely ignored my calls, and it hurt. Even when she had been furious with me in the past, she would still pick up just to tell me how angry she was.
But right now? All I got from her was nothing.
I lowered the phone slowly and let out a sigh. My fingers felt stiff, and my throat felt rough. I always knew this day was going to come, I just had no idea it was going to come this soon, and abruptly.
“It’s fine,” I whispered under my breath, consoling myself, “She’s probably just asleep or something,”
