It was not that he didn’t answer her text messages, it was that he was not answering any. His few days off of work had turned into a weekend slumped into the couch, cutting himself off completely from most. He and Raya got together least once a month, usually in a field somewhere to spar one another. Today was supposed to be that day of the month. But, Cooper was committed to the moping and not going anywhere part of his weekend.
He heard her approaching the door and considered acting like he wasn’t home. But she would hear him in there. “it’s open-,” he called out before she had the opportunity to knock. Cooper forced himself up to a sitting position. “forgetting about today was not intentional.” Although he felt it may seem like it. He had not forgotten, he had made a choice to not communicate with her the day of their plans. ( @cfdruzod )
