Heartache

Heartache | Chapter 10

 When dad went home I was sitting in the living room waiting for him and he kissed my head, asking me how my day was and I told him everything.

He was silent before asking me if I wanted to come to California with him because he got a promotion and was being sent to California for his law-firm's other branch there or whatever but he was still thinking about it and he wanted to accept because it was a great opportunity. 

 He also said that if I didn't want to go I could always stay here and he'll just get me a guardian for someone to watch over me but I wanted to make a decision so I want to go to California with him

 To leave this town and leave the memories. Leave the bad memories that you gave me here. So it's confirmed, I'm going to California as soon as possible. 

 I texted my friends immediately and told them not to tell you, I didn't want you to know until the last minute but I met up with Ken in the local Diner and we talked and I told him that I'm going to California and he was shocked because this was so soon and I only broke up with you a few hours ago and now I have to leave for California the day after tomorrow. 

I know everything was sudden but my dad is needed as soon as possible in California and I wanted to leave all the bad memories here. I wanted to escape. I need this. And Ken understands which I was thankful for and we promised to keep in touch.

 So I went home and slept when I reached my bed. 

 I didn't need to pack because I haven't removed my clothes from the suitcase and when I woke up at nine in the evening I couldn't get back to sleep, I was wide awake and I was thinking about you. I want to cut all ties so I can fully move on and remove all the pain so I thought about texting you. 

 So I got out my phone and started to type what I should have said to you earlier.

After typing I saved it in the drafts because I wasn't ready yet and maybe you would come into the door knocking ten minutes later like a cliche movie and I don't want that because I want to move on so after saving the text, I went to sleep.
