Chapter 2

Ding dong…. Ding dong….

I was pushing the doorbell of my childhood friend Macy’s house waiting for her to open it. I heard her say “coming” as she knows that I will be coming over. We were classmates since grade school. She was also close to my sister. We were like the three musketeers.

 Macy opened their front door, “hey Macy!” I greeted her. “Hey Samantha! Come on in,” she said teasing.

Samantha….. Here she goes again..

“I told you, stop calling me that. It’s embarrassing.” I moaned.

We directly went to her bedroom upstairs.

“Why? I like it. That’s a beautiful name of yours.” She teased again giggling.

“But the name “Sam” is a lot cooler, plus it’s not so girly kind of name.”

“But the name “Sam,” making a peace sign bending fingers “is a name of a boy.” Macy said as she sat down on her bed.

Well yeah, I agreed to her that it's a name of a boy. But what the heck, I liked it.

“Okay, can we stop now arguing about my name issues?" I stood up and faced her, "I have something important to tell you," saying it with a lot of seriousness.

As Macy noticed that I was being really serious, her smile disappeared quickly and started to be serious also. “Okay, okay, okay. I’m all ears,” as she sat properly crossing her legs and her eyes looking at me, ready to listen.

A gave a big sigh before I began talking. I don’t even know why I was so nervous. It’s just Macy. She’s not a stranger and I trusted her but still, it seems like I’m confessing a big crime or something.

I walked to the left side of her room and looked out at her window, seeing the beautiful neighborhood we had.

“Sam…” Macy called. I closed my eyes and breathe deeply. “Are you okay?”

“Macy, something big happened today.” I started talking. Still looking out the window.

“What is it, Sam? Say it. I won’t mind. You know me, I’m here for you.” She replied.

“I… I….. I got accepted to D-DA.” I said stuttering as I went to face her turning my back looking at her with my eyes getting watery.

Macy stood up looking surprised and went close to me to comfort me. “Oh my god Sam, for real?” she asked hugging me, “It’s okay, just let it all out,” patting my shoulder gently.

Tears fell from my cheeks so hard that I can’t even control it. I wrapped around my hands to Macy making her shirt wet at her her right shoulder.

“The mail came in this morning and my mom was so happy when she found out I got in.” I said pulling myself gently away from her. “I just don’t know what to do Macy,” looking at the ground crying.

Macy held my hand, “Sam, look at me,” I raised my head looking at her.

“Why don’t you try telling your mom the truth that….” I interrupted her, “No Macy, I can’t! I just can’t! You know the reason,” as I walked at the other side of her room. “My mom’s going to be freaked out! She will be disappointed at me and I’m afraid that she will go back just like how she was then when Peny died.” I was almost yelling at her but I controlled it.

She followed me and grabbed my shoulder making me to come to my senses.

“Sam, snap out of it! That happened eleven years ago. Look how many years passed right now and… you’re all grown up! You can make decisions of your own. Your mom will understand,” Macy tried to convince me.

“It’s not that simple, Macy,” I said looking at her with teary eyes.

Macy gave me her box of tissues and I wiped my tears all over my face."I'll give you time to be alone. I'll be downstairs if you need me, okay?" she hugged me again and stood up.

"Macy,..." I called her before she went outside her room. Macy turned around quickly, "thanks." I said smiling.

"Hey, that's what friends are for." she replied and left, closing the door.

I sat beside her bed, wrapping around my hands in my knees and resting my forehead above my knees, calming myself down.

The burden in my heart lightened as I told Macy everything how this was bothering me all morning. I was feeling okay right now because I always knew that Macy will understand me. She was the only one who stayed by my side when my sister died. We were just eight, but that time, she proved her loyalty even though we were that young. She was the only one who cheered me up and let me go back to my old self and started feeling happy again. 

She was my only friend back then. I never made friends and talked with other people except her. She never did once abandon me. That's why I'm really thankful and lucky to have her and I will cherish her forever.
