Danny stared at his phone incredulously, blinking blankly in shock as he tried to process the name of whoever's calling.. Jazz... His older sister, his dear beloved older sister... It's been a few weeks...? Months since they've fought, since they've yelled at each other.... Said things they regret deeply.
Danny's fidgeted with his fingers, before sighing deeply. "Fuck..." He mumbled to himself, rubbing his temples, thinking of what to do. Should he answer? What would Jazz say? What should he say. "Fuck it." He spoke, picking up the phone and answering Jazz's call.
For a moment there was silence, it made Danny's spine shiver in anxiety, why was Jazz so silent? Why isn't she speaking? Is this maybe like a wrong button press? Should he speak fi—
Jazz's voice echoed in the speaker making Danny's breathe hitch in anxiety, taking a deep breathe before replying with a shaky breathe.
"H.. hey... Look, I'm so—"
"Danny, I'm sorry. I'm so sorry, for saying what I said... I'm sorry for not being there for you, I'm.... I'm so sorry..."
Jazz cut Danny off mid-sentence taking Danny aback, running a hand over his chest, trying to soothe himself, his lips quivering.
"Look.... Can we— uhm.... [ deep breathe ]...... can we meet up?"
"Okay,... Uhm, we can uh... Meet in a cafe. Or the Icecream Parlor in Park Row...."
Jazz paused for a moment, taking another deep breathe, Her hands trembling as she pursed her lips behind the call.
Danny replied before hanging up the phone, he slowly and gently fell to his knees on the kitchen floor, his body trembling as Jade soothed him mentally, telling him that everything would be alright. Yeah. It'd be alright, there was no need to worry, Jazz wasn't Maddie, Maddie wasn't Jazz, Jazz is his sister... They both regret saying what they did and what they said and that's what mattered... In the end of the day they're still siblings.
"Right...." Danny mumbled under his breathe shakily, closing his eyes and processing the brief and short call... Nodding to himself before standing back up slowly and walking over to the couch trembling, deflating on it's cushions.
"Right.... Everything will be fine..."
