It has been a week since my interval with Ryder and I look and feel as weak as ever. I managed to get through classes and from there I go straight home. I am not ready to socialize with anybody.

I know you probably think I’m overreacting. I mean it’s just one heartbreak right? Well no, my heart isn’t broken its shattered, all thanks to Ryder Wesley.

Mom had come to my room this morning to inform me that she would be working late today while Mason would be sleeping over at a friend’s place.

‘Emmy, come on, let me in, you’ve been locked in your room all week. I’m beginning to get bored and I don’t even know what happened to you”

This is the seventh time Jace is at my door since this week. I think he has been worried and I don’t blame him.

“Open up Emmy, I brought ice cream”

Ice-cream? Ok no one shuts the door on ice-cream.

I stood up from my bed which was the only arranged thing in my now dirty roo and unlocked the door.

‘Finally” Jace said as he hugged me.

“Waoh, what happened to your room, did some animals move in”

I ignored his statement and took the big tub of chocolate ice-cream from him.

“Seriously Emmy what’s wrong” Jace was now sitting on my bed beside me.

    “Girl stuff”

“Well I figured so I told Mia to come over”

“What? Why didn’t you tell me”

“Well, I’m telling you now”

God Jace is so unbelievable where do I start, I was a complete mess

“Wait when is she getting here”
“uuhm next five minute” he said staring at his watch.

Ooh ,my God, without giving Jace any reply I ran into the bath tub and had my bath and by the time I was done Jace had gone downstairs so I dressed and cleared my room.

I ran down and I saw Mia ,she looked stunning, from my interaction with her ones when we were partner in art class I knew she was a shy girl and not to mention she was a black American.

‘Surely you guys know each other from class so I’m leaving you girls to socialize, Mia remember your sleeping over, I will pick you both by 8:30 tomorrow” He said blowing her a kiss.

GROSS. What did he say she is sleeping over great go bye to my alone time.
 
When Jace left, we both sat down for a while staring at our phones, but luckily Mia broke the silence.

“Would you like a movie”

To be sincere I wasn’t in the mood to do anything but I couldn’t turn her down so I said

“yes”

“Am into romance” she giggled.

“Sure. So that means you wouldn’t mind watching After”

"No I won’t”

We grabbed some popcorn and a bottle of coke each before heading up to my room.

I called to inform mom that I would be having a friend over and she agreed.

We started the movie and to be sincere we were both staring at the screen for about two hours without blinking but one thing is certain we really stuffed our mouth with popcorn.

By the time we were down I was just to excited I couldn’t wait to watch the continuation.

“let’s watch the next one” I blurted

“NO” Mia said putting on a serious look

"Emmy I know we aren’t close and shit like that but I have noticed that this past week you haven’t being yourself, Jace and every other person is worried about you”

Just when I thought I was beginning to get happy she reminded me GREAT.

“It’s nothing” I said giving her an assuring look.

“If you say so but just know Emily if you need someone to talk to I’m here”

Okay let’s say I don’t really tell people things about me, not even Jace but a part of me trusted her so here I am telling her everything in detail; starting from the bike incident to the girl he kissed in the cafeteria.

“Wow Emmy, I know you not in a good mood know but how wpuld you kiss him even when you know he doesn’t LOVE he just FUCKS”.

She was right what was I thinking.

“Promise you would never Jace” I said

“Promise”

“Girl you can’t keep sobbing ever him forever and lucky for you I have an idea”

I didn’t say anything I just waited for her to spell out her idea.

“You need a makeover, a boyfriend and a job just to keep you occupied”

She was right I needed this three things, I have to admit Mia was actually fun and also a good listener. Without a second thought I pulled her close and gave her a tight hug.

We had some crazy girls night and at some point I even forgot there was someone named Ryder.
