Callum Henderson

Inspired by “I Told You So” by Randy Travis … Callum has always been confident, smooth, charming and charismatic. A smile that brings girls to their knees with the wit to make them fall all the way. Confidence and wit had gotten him everything in life, although his family’s influence didn’t hurt. A nice car, nicer penthouse, fancy job, and endless amounts of women and entertainment. Everything but what he secretly desired. Them … They had been in the same friend circle for years, not best friends but hanging out often. Then he seen their smile light up the entire room, seen their nose scrunch when they concentrated, and noticed small things he had never noticed about anyone else before. … They started dating. After several months, it seemed perfect. Dates, late night talks, seeing that smile of theirs. Hand holding, forehead kisses, all things he swore he would never do. Until he realized how hard it was to fully commit to one person. He was so used to the constant change and attention from others. He’d never been with just one person, most relationships only lasting a date or two. It was becoming exhausting, overwhelming, too much. They sensed the change in him, begging him to talk to them. But talking was hard. So, without a word, just a simple “goodbye” text, he ended it. Ghosted them. Vowing to never feel that way again. And 4 years later, he had kept that vow to himself, except when it comes to them. No amount of dating has ever come close to them. … “Did you hear they are getting engaged?” He didn’t stay to finish the conversation he was having with his friend. He ran to his car, floored it to their house, running every red light. He frantically knocks on the door. A few moments later, they open it and eyes widen fully at him standing there after four years. … Will you go back to him and forgive him? Or will you follow the song and say “I told you so, and now I’ve found somebody new and you will never break my heart in two again.”
