I sit up and rub my eyes, pushing away my hair and checking the time on my phone. It's past 8, why do I sleep so much? Whatever, it's weekend.
My phone vibrates as a text from mom appears.
Mom: How are you doing, honey? Is everything alright?
Yes, mom. Everything's fine. Are you both enjoying??
She replies immediately.
Mom: Yes, we are and we're also missing you alot
I miss you too.
Mom: aww don't worry, we'll be back in a week, you won't even notice. What are you doing right now??
I just woke up actually and I might go to a party.
Mom: You should definitely go and have some fun, a little fun is nice.
Okay then I'll go and get ready. Goodbye , mom.
Mom: Goodbye, Sweetie. Take care.
I smile as I close the phone and get out of bed. The house feels silent which probably means that he already left. I take a shower and get into my closet, wearing my white robe.
I look around different dresses but I can't decide anything. I keep searching until I suddenly stop as I remember something.
That black velvet dress, the one that he got for me when my dress got ruined. Yes, that dress is so beautiful. I should wear that, where is it...
I look around my closet but it's nowhere near my sight. I look at the top shelf and there's a big cardboard box there. I place a chair and step up on it, pulling the box down with me.
I sit on the floor and look inside the box. I see that dress and I take it out. I look back at the box and my eyes stop at something.
I put the dress down, keeping my eyes inside the box. It's a rabbit plushie. I take it out too and my eyes are stuck on it. There are two pink bows tied on its both ears and it's smiling. It's name is Snowfall.
I feel something in my chest, a mix feeling of nostalgia and sadness, I can't forget that day. I got my first heartbreak that day. I learned what it feels like when you're helpless, when you want to scream and cry but you can't. I keep looking at it as if it's taking me somewhere, in the past perhaps.
It was my fifteenth birthday, I was over the moon because mom told me she got her first kiss on her fifteenth birthday. I was hoping that maybe I'll get mine that day.
I was wearing a pink floral dress that day, the whole garden was decorated with fairy lights and balloons. Almost everyone had arrived, except Devin's family.
We all were waiting for them. Almost everyone from my school was invited. They all knew Devin too since we both went to the same school.
When they finally came I noticed that he is not in a good mood. He was seventeen and he looked so good but I didn't express it.
