Life has been going good. I'm currently getting through finals and I'm exhausted, why do teachers assign work the last week of school and then complain they have to grade?
Ugh me and Cynthia are currently in her room doing homework, trying to do our missing assignments. I hate procrastinating. "Del why do we do this to ourselves, I'm literally going to have a mental breakdown" Cynthia says while slamming her Chemistry book.
"You know I read that procrastination helps induce the work ethic and creativity?" She just stares at me. "No wonder my assignments always come out better when it's last minute" we laugh and decide to take a break.
It turned into two hours of us on our phones and talking. "No seriously we need to do this now." I said which caused cynthia to groan. When we finally finished, we decided to bake cookies.
"You know I'm gonna miss all of us hanging out once the boys leave." Cynthia says as she eats some cookie dough staring off into the distance. What is she talking about.
"But I'm gonna miss you even more. I'm going back to Italy for the summer I might stay longer until Aleksandr comes back from Russia."
Russia?
Everything clicked they're all leaving. Nikolai included. And he didn't even tell me. I'm being left behind. Everything is changing I hate change.
"I totally forgot, what day are they leaving again?" I look at cynthia who's staring at me and then her eyes widened realizing that I didn't know.
"Del omg he hasn't told you? I'm so sorry. He's going to kill me." Cynthia says and reached to hug me. "When are you guys leaving?" I whisper to her. "Right after graduation." I'm going to cry I have 5 months with them.
My one source of happiness and motivation to keep going in life lied to my face. He promised he wouldn't leave me.
"It's ok Cynthia. I'm not mad at you. Thanks for telling me. Now I say we go watch the movie and eat the cookies before they get cold." She smiles at me and grabs my hand.
We went from crying at the movie to then laughing at each other for crying, to us talking deep.
"You know I had another bestie. Her name was Amelie. She was so nice to me, always there when I needed someone. I loved her like a sister. one day I was walking up to her and she didn't know I was behind her. She called me a spoiled bitch, and how she was only friends with me because she felt bad I didn't have a mom. She never liked me. None of it was real. only wanted to be friends with me for my money. When she turned around she slapped me, for some reason. That's when Aleksandr stepped in."
I looked at her and grabbed her hand. "She's a bitch, I don't like her." We laughed and she looked at me. "You're my person del. I find comfort when you're around." I'm going to ugly cry.
I couldn't help it, the tears just came out. She laughs at me and it makes me cry even more. "God you're such and ugly cryer." She said and I started laughing while wiping my tears.
"You should come with me to Italy for the summer. You'll love it oh please come with me, my dad will pay all your expenses." I look at her with wide eyes.
She's crazy. "Cindy my mom won't allow me, I wish I could go." She pouts and smiles at me changing the topic. Soon I had to go home.
when I got home I grabbed nova and cuddle with her. the tears I was holding back came out. How could he not tell me. He saw me everyday and didn't think to say oh hey I'm leaving back to Russia after graduating.
And it's not just him but the whole group is leaving. I'm going to be alone again. I didn't realize how truly alone I was when the group wasn't around. I came to find comfort in my own loneliness, but I was sad most times, all those smiles I put on was just for show.
I had a deep sadness inside me I felt like I was drowning. I was in an emotional abusive relationship, and had no one to talk to. The twins were gone for business trips half the time. And although I have my mom she's never home.
He got me out of that dark place, I was able to fully smile around him. Real smiles. God he makes me feel alive. They all did, Aleksandr and Cynthia made me feel capable of making friends. They all gave me the confidence I lacked.
They're leaving in five months. 5
Change, every thing is going to change even if we say it won't. Time changes people over time, and no matter how much we try to hold on it's inevitable to hang on to someone who's changed.
But one thing I know is that my love for Nikolai will never end. Even if our time does come to an end I'll be glad I got to love him.
AN: I'm back ahhh winter break!! Del found out oh oh. More chapters coming soon.
