We spent 4 hours at the bath and then it was time too go home. And too say good bye to Frida beacuse she's going home tomorrow. Without me. And I'm staying here. Without her.
Frida: 'Time to say goodbye. I promise to come visit you as soon as I can and as often. I will miss you in school on monday. Wait! What am I going to say to the teachers, and your mum?'
Me: 'Tell them the truth. Some people have probably seen the video with me and Cimorelli and... I don't know. Just tell everybody the truth.'
We hugged each other for soooo long. But I can't let go. We have ALWAYS been best friends. We always hang in school. We always sit together at lunch. We always do everything together. EVERYTHING! I will miss that sooooooo much and what about my other BFF, Gabriella. I never even got the chance to tell her about all of this. I never got too say goodbye. And what about Derec. I never even got too kiss him goodbye. I never got too go to High School and work with animals as I always wanted. I never got too sing at graduation as I was going too. And most importantly. I will never get all my childhood memories back. And I will never get any childhood memories here. I'm 13. I won't have "child"hood memories. Just youth memories. And I don't know anyone but my family. And Fridas dad. I don't know anything about what they do in school here. I don't know ANYTHING about America and their culture. Why did I do this? I don't wanna go home, I don't wanna stay, I don't wanna leave my family. What should I do? What can I do? What will I do? Why did my life have too be so complicated? It's all my "mums" fault. She was the one that messed up my life forever. She is the one to blame for everything. But I was awakened from my thoughts.
Dani: 'Are you done. We need to go. Where gonna stop at KFC to eat. And I want my chicken NOW.'
Me: 'Okey. Goodbye Frida. See you sometime.'
What I hadn't noticed was that I was crying.
Lauren: 'Are you okey Olivia.'
Me: 'I'm fine. It's just that I have never had to say goodbye to someone like this. I'm just a little emotional.'
Lauren: 'It's okey. Frida can come visit whenever she can. Right mum?'
Mum: 'Of course.'
Me: 'Okey. I'm gonna miss you Frida. My little freak.'
Frida: 'I'm gonna miss you too Olivia. My big dork.'
We hugged fast and we started walking to our cars. I felt that I started to cry again. I'm going to miss her and everything that I learned to love in Sweden. Everything, and everyone, that I grew up with.
Amy: 'Wait. I have an idea. We can put up our big tent and camp in the backyard. Then Frida can sleep over and all of us can camp and make s'mores. And tell ghost stories. It will be fun. Please mum.'
Mum: 'Only if you put up the tent yourselves and don't go to sleep to late. Remember school starts on monday.'
Amy: 'Of course. What do you say Olivia?'
Me: 'Is it saturday today? Yes of course I want to do that.'
Frida: 'That sounds amazing. I will go home, pack my things and then I will come to you. See you later.'
