So-Called Destiny

Chapter 9: Time to Say Goodbye

As I jumped off from my bed and ran downstairs, I stopped for a minute when I realize it’s Friday, the day that I will say goodbye to my best friend Kimberly. I took a deep breath and sighed, I can’t believe it’s already Friday… time really went by so fast. Suddenly, my phone vibrated… it’s a text from Kimberly: “Hey bestie! Since we don’t have school today, can you come here before I finally leave?” It took a lot of minutes before I texted back. I don’t know what to say, of course I want to see her for the last time but it will just makes me feel so miserable but yes, that’s life… I have to face the reality. I texted her back saying: “Sure! I will be there in an hour or so.”

I also decided to text Michelle, Nathalie, Elizabeth, and Juliette… I’m pretty sure Kimberly would love to see us all before moving to France. They all texted back in a second… they all agreed. This will be a long day!

20 minutes had passed, I haven’t done anything besides from overthinking things which I usually do. I then ran upstairs and get ready. I wore a black leather shorts and a leopard print peplum top with some accessories, and a black wedge heels.

“Izzy! Here are your friends!” my Mom shouted suddenly. I untangled some strands of my hair, grabbed my bag and headed downstairs. I immediately saw my 4 girls; and I can see the sadness in their eyes.

“Hey girls, so can we go now?” I looked at them and they nodded for agreement.

There’s silence that filled the car. It took just like 3 minutes to go to Kimberly’s house. As we pressed the doorbell, the sound of footsteps immediately went. It’s Kimberly.

“Hey girls, omg I’m so happy that you all came here! Let’s go now inside?” she said.

“Uhmm so when will you leave?” Nathalie asked in teary eyes.

“Well, we’re still waiting for Dad so maybe an hour or so. What do you all want to eat?” she stood and waiting for our answer for her to finally goes to the kitchen.

“No, we’re okay. I think, just a milk tea will do.” Juliette said and smiled.

“Alright, who wants to help me to you know, take it here.” She said.

“Let’s go now before they’ll starve to thirsty.” I then stood up and walked towards Kimberly.

There’s already a prepared milk tea, we just took it and went back to the living room. I can say that this is very unusual to us, very silent.

We were talking about some random things when Kimberly’s Dad came in. And in minutes, they’ll leave.

“Kimberly! We’re going to leave now, say goodbye now to your friends.” Kimberly’s mom shouted from outside… she’s putting the entire luggage in the back of their car.

“Girls, I will miss you all. Don’t forget to text, call, or even Facetime/Skype me every time, huh!?” she said while approaching for a hug.

“Kimberly of course, we’ll do! Have fun there and don’t forget about us!” Elizabeth said, holding back her tears.

“I will never forget you guys, thank you for being awesome friends and for all those memories. Have fun always especially tomorrow! Don’t forget to tell me what happened!” she said while crying and we all hugged.

“Bye fabulous bitches!” she said while going inside the car.

We were waving goodbye until their car was already out of our sight. We hugged each other and cried. We will miss this crazy yet very amazing Belieber.
