I'll be Waiting

The call

Brooke couldn't think about anything else except for the kiss. She replayed the moment over and over in her head.

Saturday and Sunday came and went. The air was getting colder by the hour. Brooke and Cory got A's on their project. Ms.Hunt was very pleased with their work. It was a pretty good Monday so far. Until Brooke received a call from Cory.

And this call was not a very pleasant one. It was the kind that shattered your heart. It turned your smile to a frown. The one that seemed to turn on a faucet in your eyes and never shut off. Tears came. And they came hard.

"Brooke." There was a pause. And a sniffle. Cory is crying?

"I'm moving. Tomorrow is my last day here. My mom just informed me about it. If I knew before I-I would've spent more time with you. I'm sorry."

"Brooke?" She couldn't speak. She was drowning in her own tears. Suffocating in her own sadness. A minute later she managed to speak.

"Okay...Cj."
