From the random thoughts file...
You know you shouldn't make the call, but part of you wants to see who's on the other line. You want to see who answers, maybe hear a friendly voice and see what that voice might have to say. So, you're sitting there staring at your cell, the number there, waiting patiently for you to press "send." You think about it. You go back and forth. Should I? Shouldn't I? You don't want to upset anyone, and the potential is there. Of course, there's also potential to reconcile, to get caught up, to hear that laugh that made you smile so much. So much hinging on that little green button on your little mobile phone. It shouldn't be this difficult, calling a friend. Of course, people shouldn't let friendships get to the point where you have concerns that you might not be received well when you call. That's why you ultimately hit the delete button and erase the number from the phone, wondering for another day if there's anything still there and if there is a point in attempting to salvage it.
