Convictions: Conflict (Night 2-B)

Phil slumped down to the floor, and rest his back on the bed. Who was this girl? And how did she become such a large part of her life so fast? He felt like he knew the answer. He spent the morning watching the news. Hoping to learn something, but the only new information what that he suppose to ‘commit to a choice’. Between the two women now in his life? What if he didn’t know yet? Was he going to end up like some mindless zombie over a little indecisiveness? he spent a solid chunk of the afternoon drinking before realizing he had one unanswered message from each. 

Sofia: Hey um… you got any plans?
Look, my next door neighbor is freaking out. Her boyfriend just…. It’s like he a zombie now or something. He keeps mumbling he needs to go somewhere, but has no idea where. Please just let me know you’re okay, okay?

Sophia: Hey, I thought we talked about drinking alone in the house? Don’t deny it. No one has seen you all day, and the only time that happens is when you’re in the house drinking. Oh, and we’ll be having a talk about a certain girl that didn’t go home last night.
Um… you ARE okay, right?...

“Are you fucking serious?” Phil spoke out loud as he wobbled slightly. He sent the same message out, and got up to get something to eat for a late snack.
Phil: I’m just do a little drinking in the safety of my home. Enjoying a little bit of peace, quiet, and comfort before I end up stumbling around aimlessly in front of a camera on the news. So whatever it is, can’t it wait till tomorrow?

Admittedly he was considering going out for dinner, but wasn’t even committed to that yet. And now he had not one but two girls hoping he would make plans. When, in all honesty, he wasn’t sure how much he really knows about either. Their busy lives meant him and Sophia didn’t get a lot of time together. And Sofia well- his phone vibrated twice.

Sofia: Settle your nerves, and stay in for a day. Fine. Grumpy? Okay. You don’t wanna hang out today. I get it. I basically just slammed into your life, and you’re not sure about they yet. But please, PLEASE, don’t think like that. I’m sure it doesn’t seem like a lot to you, but knowing what kind of magic this is is really big. Especially with Bal’ Stale magic. If you’re willing to help out tomorrow, I’m sure we could learn more. Plus I like hanging out with you. I’m only sending you details later tonight, because it’s in the morning. 

Sophia: Sighs. Isn’t your bed technically causing this problem anyways? We almost never get to plan this far ahead… But… Well they are making progress, okay? At least try to actually enjoy yourself in the meantime. I’ll plan on dinner tomorrow. Take care.

Phil got take out instead. Turned out he had more to think about then he thought, so being alone was probably for the best. His vibrated on the counter earlier than he expected.  “Just hoping to cheer you up~” Phil was jolted into awareness. The text included an image of Sofia smother her panda, Lil Phil, almost totally under her goat butt. The arm turned towards Phil holding up a V sign while she winked at him. The other arm wrapped around her chest pressing her breasts in slightly hiding most of the sideboob provided by the angle of the image. 

A little over 2 hours later he got the time, and place from Sofia. Then set an alarm. Which must  taken whatever he had left, because he passed out shortly after. His nightmare tonight the Garden of Eden. Which seem to spin endlessly around a church with a tree growing out of it. Naturally the tree was incredibly violent towards him and the other. He was pretty sure he saw a few get defeated, but he and several others made it nonetheless.

“I’ve decided.” The winged silhouette stated. “I’m going to break it off with her.”

“Wait, the girl you meant? When all this started?” The silhouette with a vest stated. “Why on earth would you do that?” 

“It’s never works out for me.” The winged silhouette said in defeat. “I’ve lying about her. To her. I just...can’t bring myself to commit to anything these days, so it’s best to let her move on.
“Funny I’ve been thinking the opposite.” A rather large beastly silhouette respond. “Normally I’m known to charge to what I want. Lately though I’ve haven’t been doing that. I just hope I can make up for my mistakes.”

Phil sided with the new silhouette. “Yeah. if you know what you want, you should go for it… Now I just need to know what I want.”

A giant dryad woman seem to take issue with his agreement. Attacking every single direction. Sometimes multiple at once, but Phil was determined now. He had something very important to do tomorrow. No matter how restless he was when he was jolted awake on that morning. Still with so many restless nights. It could be hard to do both.

CHOICES
