Chapter 19

Mia's Pov 

It's been two weeks since I was kidnapped, I am still finding it hard to cope but I keep pushing myself to not to give up. I'm grateful Claire and our friends understood what I was going through and was able to make our girls day out a week later. I know everyone has been stressed and having our girls day out will help all of us relax. 

I was awoken by my phone buzzing. Rolling over I reach my hand out grabbing my phone off the bedside table. Yarning I sit up and look to see who was texting me at this time. It was 6 o'clock. Looking down at the screen I noticed it was fraya who was texting me. 

It read, "good morning Mia, I'm sorry to inform you that I can't go on our girls trip today. I have a few things that need to do"

Looking down at the text I sigh knowing that it won't be the same without her. Fraya has been one of my closest friends since college. I know she wouldn't come if it wasn't important.

I replied, "I'm sorry to hear you can't come. This was meant to be for all of us"

Within seconds Fraya replied, "I'm really sorry I can't come. Hope you all have a great time"

I typed a quick reply back, "All good, we will catch up soon"

I placed my phone back on the bedside table and plugged it in to charge while I did my routine. I got up out of bed, put on my fluffy slippers and made my way into the bathroom. After taking a shower I strolled back into my room over to my wardrobe and opened it. 

I searched through all my clothes. Wondering what I should wear since today is going to be 28°c. I decided to wear my favourite pair of denim shorts, a white shirt and my light pink canvas shoes. 

Once I was dressed I strolled over to my study table and sat down.  I grabbed my brush and made sure there were no tangles in my hair. I set the brush down and glanced in the mirror. I noticed my eye was looking a lot better. 

I pulled my hair back in a bun while I decided to put on a little makeup to cover up the small part that is still a little bruised. Finished with my makeup I turned my attention to my hair. Since it's going to be a hot day I choose to do two Dutch braids. 

Finally finished getting ready I grab my dairy and make my way down stairs. Turning the corner I stroll into the kitchen. I placed my diary on the table and made my way around the kitchen to make a simple breakfast. Toast with strawberry jam and cup of tea. For the past 8 months I've loved starting the day with a cup of tea.

After a few minutes everything was ready. With my toast and tea in my hands I walked over to the table placing them down on the table. Before I sat down to eat I grabbed my laptop then walked back over to the table and sat down to eat. 

While I eat breakfast I love to check my social media and write in my diary. I love to write about my plans and what I do during the day in my diary. I opened my dairy and proceeded to write my entry for this morning. 

Dear diary, 

Today is the day my friends and I go on our girls' day out. I am sad that fraya can't come today but that's not going to change how the day goes. I'm happy that everyone understood  I had spent last week planning this trip. I can't wait for them to see what I have planned. 

First we are heading to the mall. Everyone loves shopping. Then we headed to the beach to have lunch. And the last destination is the spa. It's the perfect place to relax. I hope it turns out good and that everyone has a great day.

Just as I had finished writing in my diary I heard a horn honk which meant Claire was out front. A smile formed on my lips as I closed my diary, stood up and picked up my dishes. I strolled over to the sink giving them a rinse then put them on the rack to dry.
