Ashton: Really? I don’t know whether I will be there for Christmas or not. I’m going to college in London next month but I hope there’s a chance for us to meet because I really miss you too.
Stacey stares at Ashton’s email that he sent few months before. How can he left when she’s already here? Her hands start to work on the keyboard of her laptop.
Stacey: Ashtooon! I miss you! I really want to meet you. Please be home for Christmas okay?
‘Send’ button is clicked. Seconds later, Ashton replies her email. Thank God! At least they’re chatting for real, in live even she can’t sees him. Wait, they can use video call.
Ashton: I got stuffs to do here so I can’t.
He replies shortly. Is he mad?
Stacey: Are you mad?
It takes a while for him to reply it.
Ashton: You’re too busy that you don’t have time to check my emails huh?
He’s really mad.
Stacey: I told you earlier, right? I was busy!
Ashton: So you think it’s just you? I’m busy too!
Before she replies it, another email received.
Ashton: I’m SUPER BUSY and I don’t have time to chat you. Bye!
What’s up with him? How can he be like that?
Stacey: I hate you!
She doesn’t mean it. She did that because of fury. She folds her laptop and cries. She needs someone to talk right now. She reminds of Christian but he’s somewhere faraway but why Christian? It’s always Christian when she needs someone to talk to because he is one of the best person in the world who is able to lend his ears for her even her voice is a bit annoying, a person who can give her a shoulder to cry on and a 'psychologist' who will give her advice. Then, her mind goes to Annie. She grabs her phone and dials her number.
“Stacey! I missed you!”, she picks up the phone quite fast.
“Annie..”, Stacey says, her voice sounds a bit hoarse. Her eyes still teary and become more teary when heard her best friend’s voice. She missed her too.
“Are you crying?”
“Can we meet? I’ll tell you later.”, she sniffs her watery nose.
“Sure, Stacey. I’ll meet you at the park.”
“Okay..”

Stacey: I hate you!
Ok, now Stacey hates Ashton. What the hell is going on with him? He missed her but he's being a jerk. Stacey is mad with him now. She might not write him email again until he says sorry to her but what should he do to make her forgive him? Actually, he was a bit offended with Stacey because she didn’t even spend a little time to check her emails. Luckily it was not so important. Hey, it’s important! What if it was an emergency?
He was busy too but still had time to check his emails and even watching Youtube for hours. Are medical students like that? Too damn busy? Her life must be hard, huh? He often asked Mrs. Johnson about Stacey. He wanted to call her but international calls will only make his phone bill to rise.
It’s already 2 months that he is in England. He is taking an engineering course. Guess what? Liz Edward and Shawn are going the same college with him too. Liz took the same course with him and Shawn is taking business course. It’s good to continue study with some friends.
Since Stacey was away, many things had happened like Liz and Shawn are together. Pfft! When Shawn announced it, Ashton was really surprised and just laugh it off. The shy Shawn got the school's hot cheerleader? That’s unbelievable! That’s why there’s a saying said, ‘Don’t judge book by its cover’.
Shawn told him that he fell for Liz since the prom night. Before that, Shawn was not close with Liz. It was just Ashton in their group who was close with her because they had paired together for a drama which was actually against his will, all because of Mrs.Potter. Shawn deserves to be with her though. Liz is pretty, kind and also fun to be friend with. They’re perfect couple.
He remind of Stacey’s email, ‘Please be home for Christmas’. He will if he could but he got assignments to finish that have to be submitted soon. Gosh! That’s killing him! He works night and day to do it. Sometimes he doesn’t even have time to sleep but that’s okay though, good news is, he will be transferred to Australia soon! Right where Stacey is.
#I will come to you..
