Christy's POV
My thumb hovered over the screen as I stared at it with mixed emotions.
I had already hung up.
I panicked the second I heard his voice, the way he said my name with so much gentleness like I still belonged to him.
My chest was rising too fast, my lungs felt painful with every breath, my whole body trembling as though Kendrick had reached through the phone and touched me.
I just continued staring at the screen, unsure of what to do.
Was I ready to face him again?
Should I call him back?
I couldn't think straight and the silence in my room felt suffocating and it was like the walls were closing in on me.
Then a sudden vibration brought me out of my thoughts.
My phone lit up again and his name wasn't there, but I knew it was him. I felt it before I even checked the number.
My heart dropped to my stomach.
The phone kept vibrating and it felt louder in my head than reality.
