Appel de Torrey ► vers Apple

Today is a normal day. At least for everyone else but me. I was peacefully doing my homework when I receive a call. Torrey's name was written on my iPhone and I couldn't wait any longer to answer. Hello ?

After last night call to my best friend Apple, I decided to do a little investigation. I had to know what really happened that night and I couldn’t believe Apple would do such thing to Andy. Thing is, I didn’t knew that Alekseï guy and I didn’t though for even a second that he would turn against me… Anyway, I had to talk to Apple again, so I called her right after school. – Apple, it’s me… About yesterday I… I’m sorry, really.

Torrey... W.. Wait a sec... I took my phone and removed the speaker. I was quite confused and didn't understand at all what she was saying. What happened, sweety ? You okay ?...

I wasn’t. And it was obvious. Anybody would’ve understood that. But more than anyone in the world, Apple knew me and even though she was the victim, she still wanted to help me as she heard me cry on the phone. – No, it’s just. I’m sorry, I really am okay? I didn’t knew he… he… raped you. The word itself felt like a knife through my throat and I almost threw up saying’ it.

As she apologizes, I looked at the wall, trying to concentrate. She was crying very loudly. But then, she said the “R” word. H... How could you say such a thing?... Torrey, do you know something ? I frowned. Torrey? Do you?

I shook my head from right to left even though she couldn’t saw me. – He… he said he didn’t set you up and… and… that he liked it. I stop talkin, only cryin more and more. It was too much to bear and I felt so sorry for her. Like I could’ve done something to help her that night. Like I could change what’ve already happened. I tried to breathe, calm down, but I was afraid she’d be mad at me for not believing her then.

I closed my eyes, trying my best not to cry. Is it what he said? I could feel my heart pounding so badly it could get through my chest. I was not so shocked... But it really hurt. You sure?

I took a deep breath and closed my eyes. – Yes. I have it right here on my phone… As I breathed as deep and slow as possible, I heard she started to cry too and it broke my heart even more. – Apple… I’m so sorry. I’ll always be here for you from now on. I’ll always believe you, I promise.

I put my hand on my mouth so she won't hear me cry so much. It's okay. I didn't know what else to say... As long as you believe me... I guess I should be alright... We can work things out... right? I get up and crossed my room to look outside my door in the direction of Andy's room. Maybe hoping for him to get out... Torrey... Nothing matters... I don't remember anything... But he will pay. The only thing I care about for now, is my boyfriend. I can't afford to lose him... Well... even though I already did...
