Boss (maybe) fired me, and refuses to respond to my messages

My boss decided to schedule me for a day that I told her I had a doctors appointment, I chose to go skip work for it because I’m not sacrificing my mental and physical health for a minimum wage job. Apparently, despite this being the literal first time I missed work, this was apparently a fireable offense! Told me I “wouldn’t be able to work here anymore” if I couldn’t find someone to cover my shift, and of course the one person who wasn’t already working left me out to dry. So, context over, the day after I texted her like. “Okay are you actually firing me?” because I wanted to give her the chance to stop being an asshole, and she has just… not responded. Complete radio silence for 3 days now. I don’t even know if she’s still expecting me to work the last day I was scheduled…

Don’t know what to do now other than literally walk into the store (hope she’s actually there) and demand her to stop being a toddler about it and actually communicate. Which I would prefer not to do because I am not good at face-to-face confrontation. Ugh.
