~Far Away from Home~

Lydia's POV:

I ran up the stairs to the guest room. I locked the door and plopped onto the bed. So many thoughts came flowing into my head.

Why am I not ready? He probably hates me right? Am I not good enough? He loves someone else?

I think Justin doesn't like me staying here. I overstayed my welcome. It's time to leave. So I unlocked the door and went to the bathroom.

I grabbed a outfit from the closet. I grabbed a sweater with some sweatpants. This would be my last shower before I left.

I locked the bathroom door and turned on the shower. Once the water got hot, I hopped into the shower.

As soon as the water hit my body, I cried and cried. Justin doesn't like me at all. Tonight I'm going to pack up and leave him.

I washed my body and my hair. Then I turned off the shower water and hopped out the shower.

I grabbed my towel from off the toilet seat and dried my body off til there was no water left on me.

Then I washed my face and brushed my teeth. I am going to miss Justin but this is for the best. He probably doesn't even care about me.

Since I've ran upstairs he hasn't come to check on me at all. I got dressed and left the bathroom. I saw Justin walking up the stairs.

We made eye contact before I ran into the guest room and locked the door. I heard a knock on the door.

I knew it was Justin. "Lydia, I'm sorry" he apologized but I didn't want to hear it. "Lydia, please forgive me" he pleaded.

I didn't respond and he walked away from the door. I sobbed into my pillows on the bed. Then I got up and grabbed a bag.

I started shoving all the clothes he brought me into the bag. I didn't have anything to wear except the ones he bought for me.

Once I was done, I checked my alarm to see what time it was. 12:34 pm. Perfect it's time to leave.

I slowly creaked open the door and looked left and right. There was no sign of Justin. So I placed my bags in front of my door.

I slide my shoes on and walked to Justin's room. I opened his door and he was sleeping with the covers over him. Look how quickly he fell asleep.

I started to contemplate if I should give him a good bye kiss. Cause there's a chance he'll wake up. So I stood there and started contemplating before I made my decision.

I slowly walked over and kissed his forehead. I whispered "Goodbye Justin." Then I tiptoed out the room and closed his door.

Next, I went to the guest room and picked up the bag of clothes. Then I put them over my shoulder and walked to the front door.

Before I walked out, I grabbed a pen and a paper and left him a note thanking him. Once finished, I placed the note on the front door. So that Justin will see it once he tries to find me.

I did one more double take and smiled sadly. 'Is this really for the best?' I ask myself inside my head. It's to late now. I've ruined everything because of my dumb feelings.

I sigh and quickly open Justin's front door as I walk out, I shut it quickly behind me. "Goodbye Justin" I whisper as I start walking away from Justin's house.
