"What does it mean to truely love
Darling I'm so sorry for not been able to talk"

Jenny's pov:

Recommended song: "Rises the moon by Liana Flores"

Today was amazing. We packed our stuff together and to get home faster we decided to take a bus. It wasn't so crowded  but it wasn't empty either which I was happy about.

We sat next to each other on the way home. We were talking about some usual stuff and that we should come back there more.
Meanwhile the sky turned darker blue and shiny points on the sky appeared high above.

The stars.

Soon we noticed the moon's shiny face too lighting up the darker sides of the streets.
It didn't felt the same ordinary city we saw and walked around every single day. To be honest even life didn't feel real. Us talking on our way home while sharing a headphone and listening to hour favourit songs. I couldn't wish for any better.

Loise then stands up and from that I know we'd be there in any seconds.
I grab my backpack and stand up too next to the door. She pushes the stop button and when we reach the bus stop we immediately leave when the doors open like a gate greeding us.
She grabs my hand to make sure I feel safe even in the dark city.

And I have to tell you...
I felt completely safe.
I couldn't even think of anything bad in that moment. Just us and the empty dark streets.  The air changed a lot since the afternoon so from the warm and sunny weather the air cooled down and the light breeze turned into a smaller wind. It was getting colder so I made sure my coat is buttoned up.
Then she stops and I clearly know where we are.

The place where our ways have to continue in the opposite directions.

"And now off we go" she says to me with a small smile I can hardly see in the street lamps' light.

We giggle for a while.
Everything is so quiet. All I can hear is our laugh. But I did not mind that.

"Oh god how could I thank this day! I can tell you truly that when you said you'd plan something for us I thought of everything but not that! It was such an amazing surprise!" I say with the same excitement I had when we arrived to the hill, or when she told me the plans.

"I'm glad you think that" she replies simply but with still her smile shining on her face.

"Well then text me when you get home 'key?" she adds the usual.

"Oh yes of course! But you too! You know there is no night without my goodnight message!"

She laughs a bit.

"Yes I know. Then See you tomorrow!" she rises her hand up to began waving.

"Oh yes we have to go to school tomorrow! AGhh This felt like a holiday!"

"I can agree" she nods at me.

We step in front of each other and hug.
When we separate we say bye and goodnight to each other once more and turn to the way where we are suppose to go.
As we go farther and father we still wave until we can't see each other anymore in the dark night.

Saying goodbye is hard. But knowing you'll meet again soon in the future makes it easier.
Everything depends on the perspective you see things from.

My alarm shouts louder then ever. I can hear my mom telling me too to wake up but as I try to move I can't. My whole body feels like a stone that sticks to the ground. Mine stucked to my bed. All of my limbs are numb and lazy to start working no matter what does it costs.
