Evelyn
"All the flights are booked. I can't go to New York."
Ivan and Yasmine mutter curses at the situation.
"God. It's like I'm not meant to go there." I complain, hating how everything seems to be stopping me.
I opened the website to book a flight and it kept crashing. I spent all day trying to get it to work but it wouldn't work. And the next day when everything was back in order the prices were so high my eyes almost bulged out in shock. With a heavy heart I booked a seat but the page kept having issues. By evening all the empty seats were gone and I couldn't find a single seat.
"Don't blame the universe." Ivan says in a stern tone.
"Yeah sure. It seems to help me quite a lot. It's snowing so much I can't even go to the airport to buy a ticket myself." I say in an aggravated tone.
"We'll figure it out Evelyn." Yasmine assures me.
"I don't know. Everything is closed. An airplane is my only chance." I say in a gloomy tone.
"You shouldn't have broken up with him in the first place. Patching up seems like an expensive option now." Ivan says stuffing his mouth with tacos.
I want to throw a cushion at him but I don't want him to choke on his bite and die during the holiday season. Also he's in love and my best friend in love looks happy.
But I want to kill him right now.
"Don't tease her, Ivan." Yasmine glares at Ivan.
"I'm being honest. If only we had a millionaire with a private jet." Ivan says.
I look at Yasmine. "Doesn't Connor have a private jet?"
She chuckles. "He is rich. But he isn't that rich."
"Poor soul." Ivan adds.
"He's richer than Declan." Yasmine counterbacks.
"No need to brag. We get your boyfriend is a millionaire but he isn't a billionaire like Warren." Ivan smirks at me.
"You're right. Warren is on another level of richness. He's Richie rich."
"You're right, Mimi."
I faze out of their conversation as I try to find a way to get to New York.
And what are you going to do when you get there?
My mind goes blank. I have no idea what I'm going to say to Warren or convince him to work things out with him. But I know I can't live without him. I love him. And he needs to hear that. And maybe... we can work towards solving our issues if he wants to.
What if he doesn't?
God knows what I'll do if that's the case. I'll be so heartbroken and upset that I'd die on the spot.
I need to talk to him. That's all on my mind right now. Even though I have no speech ready.
"What are you going to do now?" Yasmine asks and I stare out of the window watching the snow blanketing the city.
"I don't know."

The next day Miles and I go out to buy Christmas presents when Christmas is in three days.
I know there's no way I'll be able to make it to Warren.
Everything is either closed or booked because of the snow and the holiday season.
