Will She Be Like This Forever?

Chapter 31

What's it matter anymore?

If you believe the lies I tell

There's no meaning to the words

But we still sing these songs well

My girls.

I woke up at 3am this morning, after a 12-hour sleep. I crept out of my bed and put on Mapi's jumper, which still smelt like her. I grabbed my phone and my pink blanket and made my way down to the common room. I sat and scrolled for a while and ended up on my photos. I decided to pick a few and post them on Instagram, a few tears spilling down my face while I wrote the caption.

I turned on the PlayStation and grabbed the controller, playing GTA 5 while I waited for Lucy and Kei to wake up. I heard my phone buzz at around 6am, looking down, I saw Mapi facetiming me. Shit. Do I answer?

I propped the phone up in front of me as I carried on playing. 

Mapi🌹

Hola Mapi.

Hi.

¿Estás bien?                  (are you okay?)

Dejaste una de tus camisetas aquí.               (You left one of your shirts here.)

Lo siento cariño. Dáselo a Lucy cuando regrese o algo así y ella me lo dará a mí.                                (I'm sorry babe. Give it to Lucy when she gets back or something and she'll give it to me.)

¿Puedes mirarme?                      (Can you look at me?)

I put my controller down and looked at her, resting my head on my hand.

You are beautiful.

Mapi in English. I love it. Thank you love.

Hemos terminado, ¿no?                 (We're done, right?)

Sí, lo somos. Por ahora.                  (Yes, we are. For now)

Voy a quererte siempre.                         (I will always want you.)
