Juliet PoV

20 years.

20 years since I've seen the damned guy.

20 years since I've left the pain in New York.

I chuckled nervously,as I stashed more of my bloody (a/n: expression,its not really bloody.Thats what I got from bloody Ron Granger,dont blame me✌️) wardrobe in the little suitcase.

Its been years since I've last went back to New York.

Yet,the pain still remained.

WHY?WHY?WHY?

The dread of coming back to NY filled me,as I stashed more clothes to the now filled bag,not minding the mess I'm making.

Just when I was settling with my thoughts,my phone rang.

And the ringtone happened to be my favorite song, Love Story,by Taylor Swift.

We were both young when I first saw you...

"Who could this be?"

I close my eyes and a flashback starts,I'm standing there...

"Ok.ok.Hold the heck on!"

On a balcony in summer air.

I picked up my iPhone,to stop the ringing,because its just making me remember the past.

Sigh...

Romeo Stanford.

To hell with you

I didn't notice the person now talking,as I swam through my thoughts.(A/N:Juliet- BOLD Hearte-italics

"BESH!You still 'er?"

I blinked back into reality,once I heard my best friend,Hearte Evangeline Dawnlock screaming.

"Juliet Jerese Newman!Wake up!"

Great.I forgot to tell you.I had a second name,no one knew except my family and a few close friends.

Including that guy.

Oh,back to the witch herself.

"Dude,I'm like,New York,always awake!"-J

"Duh.YOU were from there."-H

"Ahh.Dont mention it."-J

"Now who is a proper citizen who doesn't even acknowledge their citizenship?"-H

"I'm a fuggin citizen of Chicago!I told you to not push me Hearte!"-J

"Sorry,I'm not there to push you.Some other time?"-H

"Hearte!I'm being serious!"-J

"Bwiset ka!Kung tatawag lang ako para pagalitan mo ako,edi,hindi nalang ako tatawag sayo!Mukhang nagpipi-ms ka eh!-H

Oh,my bestfriend here is a FilAm.She uses the Filipino language alot,and,its basically the only thing I dont understand from her vocabulary.

"Whatever you're saying Hearte!I still need to get to Harvard before my flight to get advanced assignments!"-J

Yes.Assignments on a vacation.

Truth was,I was pressured by my parents on being a consistent honor on Harvard,where I took BS Chemical Engineering.They wanted nothing but for me to excel.Medals?I have hundreds.When I was in elementary,there was never a year that I wasn't a valedictorian.I got 10 scholarships.When I got to highschool,same things happened.I became the valedictorian and passed all the collegiate entrance tests.But as I said,decisions weren't mine to make.

As usual,my parents were the one who chose where I would study,what to take,etc.

I ended up with Harvard,my mothers choice,and Chemical Engineering,my father's choice.

I was okay with Harvard.But Chemical Engineering?not so.I wanted to be an architect.

BUT

NO.

i was used to it anyway.Parents dogging my every step,making sure their names were never dirtied.They made sure I was the best,sports,academics,etc.They expected so much from me.

They made me look like a robot.

Everly perfect.

They put chains on my prison called life.They made me stay there,made sure I didn't dog my way out.

And the assignments weren't even my decision.I mean,who on their right mind would ask for assignments on vacation?!

But sometimes,I think they do have a point on their "coo-coo" ,as what Hearte called it.

Because they did have names.

Sophia Ellize Stanwell-Newman

Miss Universe 2005
(A/N:Just a product of my imagination.Purely fiction)
Luis Carter Newman

Certified tycoon, probably the "Most Powerful Business Tycoon of the World"

Yup.I was born lucky.

"Besh.I'm hangin' up.Gotta do some burrito kicking.BYE!"-H

My bestfriend's voice cut through the reverie of my thoughts.

Suddenly,I had a strawberry cheescake muffin and a strawberry frappe from Starbucks at my bedside table.

How did it happen?

I didn't notice the sign,which read:

From:Joseph

Dude.U should lessen ur "grl talks" to Hearte.
Seriously!U didnt notice me when I came in!
Mom is telling you to hurry up.And fix dat
Suitcase of yours!

CIAO.

Hahaha.

I rudely forgot about my annoying brother,Joseph Nevi Newman

Older brother.Add annoying.
