Hey, muchachos! This is chapter 3 ver. 2.0. Here we gooooo!
"I thought you were going to man up about this."
His eyes fluttered open, and there was Julius, arms crossed, standing at the foot of his bed.
"Why is it that I always have to see your face when I least want to see it?"
"Ouch."
"Anyways, I was going to go through with this," he replied, jerking his thumb in the direction of the pink slip. "You just didn't give me enough time."
"Enough time? You've been asleep for five days."
Fi-
Wha-
Five days?
"Did you just say...?" He nodded.
"What the hell?"
"Wii golf does that to you." Anubis slowly closed his gaping mouth and rubbed his eyes.
"Oh, well, it wasn't intentional-"
"Wasn't it?" He sounded angry. Anubis looked up at him, stunned. "I don't think you understand yourself very well. You're holding yourself back. I didn't think I'd ever meet a god with self-esteem issues, but the 5,000 something years you've been alive seem to have compacted themselves into sixteen. You act like the common angsty teenager, running away from your problems. Get your act together."
He was right. Anubis knew it, too.
"Guess what? I gave you her number but I didn't give her yours. I wanted you to take the initiative. Sadie's been waiting for five days, but I guess she can wait another. If you don't figure something out by the end of the day, then I don't think you ever will."
He has a flair for dramatic exits, doesn't he? Anubis thought as the god disappeared in a whirl of color.
Because this obviously didn't cover all of the material that was originally in this chapter and I wanted it to end here, I added another one that comes after this :) Review!
