The last two days with Lewis in Argentina were amazing. We went to the mall like we agreed the night before, got everything in the car for later when we got to the cabin we were spending the rest of the day and the night.

At the mall, we had to control ourselves and mostly Lewis because he wanted to buy us anything we laid our eyes on for more than 3 minutes. Even though my dad tried to stop him, Lewis got me a pair of sneakers and an oversized hoodie. He also bought my mom a cute purse, and for my dad, he got a cap and a t-shirt with a funny caption on it.

We had lunch in a restaurant from the mall, and after that, we got ready to spend the rest of the day on the island. I played some football with my dad and Lewis and then went to gossip with my mom.

The rest of the day was spent in a boat we managed to rent, and when the sun started to set, we got ready to go back to the cabin. It had a little fireplace, so we made a fire to spend the night there. My parents and Lewis shared some memories with me about the time they lived in England and the funny stories my dad and godfather got together from their childhood.


Lewis came back to England to get ready for the season a few days ago. The house now seemed quieter, and I spent most of the time alone just chilling. I decided to invite my friends to come over so we could chat for a bit and have lunch together. After an hour, Cam and Mia arrived.

"Hello, cuties, come in."- I greeted them.

"Hey! I brought some wine for us, Sa. I have the feeling you got news for us."- Mia said chuckling.

"I don't know what you're talking about, but thanks for the wine."

We got to the kitchen and started getting everything sorted for our lunch. Mia and I started cooking some burgers, while Cam opened the bottle for us and got herself cold water since she usually doesn't drink any alcohol.

"Well, does any of you have some tea to spill?"- Cam said this time.

"I'll start to teach English in an institute next month."- Mia told us.

"Oh, that's amazing, Mi. I'm happy for you."- I let my friend know. "I don't even want to think about college yet, I need some more time of holidays."

"Same girl, good thing I start a bit later. No need to worry yet."- Cam changed her position in the seat before asking. "So, what's what you wanted to tell us? I didn't forget your messages from last week."

"Uhm ... I met my godfather, and he stayed with us for some days."

"Do we like him? What's his name?"

"Yes, we like him. He's a cool guy, and his name is Lewis. He's from England and was friends with my dad since childhood."

"Oh well, that's cute. I know you're a family girl, so I'm happy for you."- Cam said while she laughed a bit.

We spent the rest of the day talking about whatever it crossed our minds. Mia even invited us to a little party she was gonna organize for next week. Before I realized my mom was back at home and started asking Cam and Mia how they were. Around 6 p.m, the girls went back to their house, and my dad came home from work.



"OH MY GOD! Oh my God, oh my god!"- I screamed as soon as I read the news on my phone.

"What's going on Sarah?"- My dad started asking me, looking for any sign that may tell him if a I was hurt or something like that.

"NO WAY. It happened, it's confirmed."- I continued rumbling.

"Sarah, dear, you're gonna give your dad a heart attack. Calm down and tell us."
