JORDAN:
It was dark by now. The windows were rolled down, allowing a good breeze inside the car.
Twenty minutes into a no destination drive— I began to feel anxious and bored.
There were moments I wanted to say something but after overthinking it— I didn't.
I wasn't expecting much conversation due to our earlier argument, but the silence in the car was uncomfortable. There wasn't even music playing until...
"Can we turn on the radio?", I politely asked.
Side profiled, Alexis nods—- "Yeah sorry my bad".
I watched her multitask between the road and the radio until she found a station. Shortly, "Like I Want You" by GIVEON starts to play:
Sometimes I wish you knew
But I disguise the truth
I say I'm happy but I'm still stuck on us, mmm, mmm, mmm
Does your mind play this game too?
Think 'bout me and you
I guess I'll just pretend
Until it all makes sense, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm
See you face to face, I'm thinking 'bout the days we used to be
But I can't make a scene, but I can't make a scene
See you face to face, I'm thinking 'bout the days we used to be
But I can't make a scene, but I can't make it seem
Like I want you
You
Even if it's true
Even if it's true
I toyed with my phone as the music played, carelessly scrolling on Instagram—double tapping.
My phone then notified me of an iMessage from Tameeka.
