Mi Amor

Chapter 2

The graduation was so fun, i forgot about leaving California. Soon, the principal, Miss Myers came on the stage.

"Good evening Students! Its so sad that the 12th grade, are leaving our school. The cheerleaders, Kendra, Autumn, Sasha, Joyce, Diana and the rest. Thanks for all you did as a squad. You won so many cheerleading contests for our school, and you are the best. The Drama Club, Emily, Valerie, Vanessa, Madison and the rest. We love your acting skills. I hope you get into great acting schools in the future! The basketball and football team. Asher, keep up the good work. Lastly, the Fashionistas, Skyler, Henley, Camila, Barbara and the rest of you. We loved you the most. Your fashion sense enrolled you into this school and am sure it will enroll you in a great University. But let me announce, Miss. Skyler the leader of the fashionistas, is leaving California. But lets be happy because she's going to a good place."

I knew that was where she was heading to. There were murmurs everywhere.

Wait, am i dying? The rest of the celebration was okay, and then Miss Myers gave us departing gifts. After the party, Barbara called me for a private talk and then she threw her arms around me.

'I can't believe today's the last day we'll see each other. Am so heartbroken, am short of words.... all i know is, i will meet you again. You have to make me a solemn promise." Barbie cried.

"Name it, babe"

"Promise me, promise me you wont have any other BFF in your university. It will always be me" She cried.

"Of course, no one will take your place" I hugged her and she continued weeping.

"Barbara, let me go. Mom is here to pick me up" I pulled out of the hug.

"Skyler, please call me..." Barbara said.

"No problem." I left sadly. I entered mom's car with so many thoughts. High school was over, i was happy. I was going to a University without my BFF. I am gonna miss her. I didn't notice when we got home. Mom just went straight to bed. I locked my room door and cried my eyes out. Today was the last day i saw Barbara. After crying for half an hour, she called me on video call.

"Skyler, i am missing you already" Barbara said.

"Barbie, you don't have to miss me much. I'll call you always." I said.

"For my sake Sky, don't go to this university. Am gonna die without you."

"You dont have to worry."

"Sky, run away. Somehow, please."

"Barbie, i cant do that. Guess what, we will become famous models together one day. Do you believe in our friendship?" I asked her.

"Yes Skyler." She cried.

"Then dont cry anymore. Have you gotten admission?"

"Well...uhm...i have,but i still have to go through some tests."

"I believe you will pass." I smiled broadly. She cried loudly and hung up. I closed my eyes and went to sleep...

                                                    ...

I woke up with my weak eyes staring at the ceiling. Mom entered and i quickly faked shivering and sneezing.

"Achoo!" I sneezed.

"Omg, Skyler what happened?" Mom came to me worried.

"Oh....Mom, i dont think i can go to University today, am sick" I cried.

"Sick?? Oh, that's bad. I think you can manage."

"Manage?? I Cant manage....Achoo!" I sneezed again and shivered even more this time. Mom stared into my eyes and i squeezed so hard that tears almost dropped.

"well, i guess you should stay home today." Mom said.

"Achoo! That's ama - i mean that's bad!" I sighed.

"Let me go get the thermometer, and your favorite soup." Mom left and as soon as she slammed the door. I jumped out of my bed.

"Waooooooooooo!!!!!!! This is awesome! Am so good at acting" I screamed in excitement and she flung the door open.

"HOW DARE YOU LIE TO ME SKYLER? GET UP AND GO TO THE BATHROOM, NOW!" My mom yelled.

"I don't wanna go to this university! I don't wanna be separated from Barbie." I snapped at her.

"STOP YELLING AND GO!" She pushed me on the floor and my face nearly broke the ground. She left angrily. I had a bleeding nose. I was so angry. I took my bath and wore a pink dress. I stuffed my things in the big suitcase. Then i took my memories of Barbara; our friendship bracelets, necklaces and a picture of us on the graduation, and her birthday."

"SKYLER!!!!!!!!! THE DRIVER'S HERE" I heard Mom call.
