i'm no quiter

my phone sits on my desk. it lights up and begins to flash a small green light.

i know it's a text from you.

my heartbeat picks up in excitement, but my head tells me to be upset.

upset with you for continuing this confusing game. one i don't want to play anymore.

so i ignore that blinking green light on my phone, but resisting is futile.

i will give-in within the hour and respond just like you want.

how is it that you always win this game?

i should just quit,

but i think a part of me likes playing after all.
