I was jumping in my seat when I got on my plane. The lady beside me was giving me weird looks but I didn't care.

I was gonna see Liam! Finally after 1 year!

Liam Cameron was my boyfriend for 2years, we started dating at the end of my sophomore year but he moved to NY in junior year and we've had a long-distance relationship ever since. and now I was gonna surprise him.

Honestly, I don't know why people make such a big deal about having a long-distance relationship because Liam and I were doing great

I even knew his friends in New York and had their contacts to check up on him if he wasn't picking up and he didn't have any female friends

Everything is great!

I was sure we are gonna spend our lives together in the future.

Yes I think about it a lot

My phone pings and I see Liam's name pop up and I smile

"Ma'am the plane is about to take flight, you have to switch off your phone," the polite hostess asks me.

"Yes just a minute" I smile at her and she nods curtly and moves to another passenger
I open Liam's message and my smile drops

Liam-
It's over karlissa, we are done.

"Oh no he didn't" I turn to the old lady beside me and she was looking at my phone screen. I give her a weird face and turn back to my phone.

What does he mean it's over? It is not over!

"If I were you, I would call him and make sure to hang up on him" I decided to take the old lady's advice and call him

"Ma'am I asked u to turn your phone off"

"Listen here I am on my way to surprise my boyfriend and he just dumped me so if I were you I would shut your ass up!" I snap

She looked surprised by my outburst but her expression turned sympathetic
"Hello?" I turn my attention to my phone and the voice

"Liam?! What the fuck?!" I yell and everyone on the plane turned to me but the nice air hostess apologized to them

"Karlissa I mean what I said. I can't do this long-distance relationship thing anymore. I wanna be free and do whatever I want to do and I want you to be free too"
