2hollis

Your phone vibrates. 2Hollis: "You're not asleep?" Typical. He always texts at the worst possible time—when the sky is dark and your thoughts are louder than they should be. You stare at the screen, wondering if you should even reply. Last time he left you hanging for days, then came back like nothing happened. Before you can decide, another message arrives. 2Hollis: "Don't act like a newbie, ma. You know you were waiting for me." The same cocky attitude. The same smooth talk that always gets on your nerves. You could leave him on read receipt. Ignore him, like he does you. But deep down you know this game doesn't work that way. So what will it be? [Reply] or [Leave him on read receipt]?
