I still hadn't heard anything from him since Saturday night, and I decided that I'd reach out to him this afternoon if I hadn't heard from him by four o'clock.I hated setting deadlines for myself like that, because it made me feel like I was playing into the dating game even more. But I knew that I needed to see him three times this week in order to win the bet, so every day counted. On top of that, I found that I really missed talking to him. Around 1:30, I was at home eating a tuna sandwich for lunch, and my phone started ringing. I dropped the sandwich and ran into the next room to dig for my phone in my backpack. By the time I grabbed the cell phone out of the bottom of the bag, it had stopped ringing.My fingers fumbled to look at the call log, and I saw that it was Patrick who had called. I immediately pushed the callback button and heard his beautiful voice on the other side of the line."Are you ignoring me now?" I could hear a playful tone in his voice."Not intentionally... but the forces were working against me to prevent me from answering your phone call.
