Left you hanging

I wrote thus last year and really liked it. 

Remember that time when you were in elementary school and you were a bully. Not by choice but by reason. Someone was bothering you in class, like taking your books and playing keep away Or nicking your coat and throwing it over your head. After a few hours of this you’ve finally had enough.
Hey, Frankie! Meet me out on the playground at 3:10pm! You secretly tell your friends to jump Frankie, sooner. You set up a time and a meeting place earlier..but your friends don’t show up.

Remember last Friday night when you were out at a bar with your lover. You had three glasses of wine and dark stout beer and got wasted. You really felt on the walk home. At one point…you even yelled out mommy, like she was going to come out there and get you on that main street by the 76 gas station. You stumbled, took deep breaths and thought…who is the one person who will calm me down. Hello, technology!

You look up a number on viber.
Hello! Mia! I am drunk. Too drunk! Can you walk with me home?
Mia: Yes. He left you behind? Isn’t he trying to be friends with you?
Yep! He left me hanging.
