Karma's POV

Day six…

She still hasn't called or texted. The silence is haunting me. I asked Lauren if I could come over and just go in her room. I told her that I left something there and I needed to get it. The truth is that I wanted to be somewhere that her presence still lingered.

When I got to her room, I lay down on the bed and thought of every time we'd been here together. That dream that I had. The one where I woke up in the middle of making out with her. I'd put it off as some weird aberration. Now, I lived in the shadow of it.

It stood in place of the kiss I couldn't remember. Still, that need is there to see if it's real. I feel phantom heart syndrome. Dramatic? Probably but, dear diary, have you met me?

I'm going to call her one more time.

"Amy, I know you're there somewhere. Just give me some kind of sign. I don't care what it is. Tell me that you're still thinking about me. I'm so confused and I need you. I'm selfish. I need to let you go but I had to try one more time. I need to know that you're okay."
