"It depends."
"Depends on what? Ugh, this man is so annoying, ' she thought angrily.
She had an urge to text him the words “get lost." But she decided better of it. ‘Hey, wait...*
Suddenly, she realized she was fighting with him and that he was in the wrong. She was still mad. She should be rude.
So she went with Plan A and sent "get lost" to her hubby.
Seeing her message, Carlos sent her a voice message straight away.
“Want to know everything you told me on the phone?"
‘What? He...0h no!' She refused outright,
Ignoring her refusal, he sent her a second voice message.
"You said,
Carlos, tell me I'm hot. Say you miss me. We can video call on WeChat.
Take off your clothes, and we..."
Debbie's face was the color of a tomato when she heard the message. She kept sending emojis to drown out his voice messages.
Finally, she couldn't stand it anymore and sent back a voice message of her own.
"Will you be serious for a second? Sometimes you are so annoying! I'm still pissed off!"
Shock of shocks, it worked. Carlos stopped sending her voice messages.
A sigh of relief escaped her chest.
But her relief was short-lived. She was about to get out of bed, when he sent another voice message.
"You sure you don't want to video chat?
You are so hot!"
‘Aargh, so annoying!’ Debbie wanted to cry. ‘Isn't this man an impossibly arrogant CEO? But he's such a flippant jerk now! I can't even... Asshole!’ she cussed in her mind.
In an instant, she texted him.
“You're just a beast in a business suit!"
He responded back with sex-laced messages. She couldn't win, so she just turned off notifications and set her phone aside for the night.
The next morning, after class, Debbie finally answered Lewis’ call and agreed to meet him and Portia at a cafe. Maybe it was time to talk.
