Sofia
Days have been passed so quick, one thing I knew we're already on finals week. A lot of changes happened, I and Roger grew much closer and we figure out on what we are going to do in College, we're both waiting for the acceptance letter from Imperial London College where Roger are going too, I'm not going to lie, I am too nervous for him and at the same time I'm kind of confident because I think he aced the exams and the interview I'm really sure that he can get a spot on his dream University. I'm completely rooting for him since day one, aside from that the band are getting a gig from London, finally they are slowly being recognized by the folks of London and I cannot be much more happier for them
Looking myself on the mirror for the hundredth time, well, I should enjoy this day with my friend Marina but why do I have a bad gut feeling that she's not gonna go with me? Okay, relax Sofia you're being delusional again. While contemplating on everything including my life decisions I heard the telephone ringing, it must have been Marina calling me, I hope she doesn't cancel on me
"Hey there, are you on your way already?" I immediately ask Marina as I sat on my bed, hoping she already left her apartment by this time
"Hello, Sofia, I'm still here on my flat. I think I can't go out for today," Oh, so she's not coming for today at the same time she sounded not feeling well
I contemplate for a bit just to accept the fact that we're going to cancel what we planned the last time we talk about it. I want to reason out that we've been talking about this for the past few weeks and now we're going to cancel it so suddenly but all I got to do is to take a deep breathe and understand the situation she have
"It's fine Marina, you sounded sick, I'm a bit worried for you," I said on the other line of the telephone, I can't help but to sounded like a mom to her, she's a year older than me but she's like a kid that needs to take care too
"Yeah, I just checked myself earlier this morning because I felt my body temperature went high as the skyscraper, turns out I have a fever. So I have to call you, I'm really sorry Sofia because I have to cancel you, I can't feel myself going out today, I'm really sorry," she said on the other line, I took a deep breathe and sat lifelessly on my bed
"What can I do? It's fine Marina, take a rest there, drink plenty of fluids and please for the love of God drink your medicine for your fever and eat something before you drink it okay? I'm coming over there if your aunt didn't arrive on time again, gee," I can't help but to roll my eyes again, I hate the fact that she's all alone every time she got sick, her aunt isn't always there to assist her. To be honest her aunt is getting on my nerves
"Yes mother, and hey, don't worry about me that much okay? You take a good care of yourself too, okay? You and your friends can go without me, tell me stories about them okay?" she said on the other line, I can't force her to go out but I will force her to take a good care of herself, and I completely forgot that Maureen and Brian rejected my offer because they're too busy on their own lives
"Yeah sure sure, anyways I forgot to tell you, my friends from London said they're busy but it is understandable on my behalf" I said while fiddling on the lose thread of my duvet, what am I gonna now that I'm already dressed up, I heard her said oh on the other line, well, it is okay for me at least they said it earlier than calling it off on the day of the trip
