Ordinary Girl

Chapter 5: Tobias POV

Man I can't believe that tomorrow I will come back to London. I've spent 2 years already in Manchester. My dad sent me to Manchester to finish my study there. He saw me depressed since I broke up with Jane. Jane what about her? For 2 freaking years I haven't seen her.

Is she with George now? Has she already moved on? I can't stop thinking about her. Her smile, when she's shy and trying not to show it, everything! But she hurt me when she told me that she won't stop seeing that dude George. She thought that I was jealous, well I might have been a little, but, when I saw him looking at her how can't I? He was taking my girlfriend from me and she didn't accept that I was fighting for her. I guess she is my true love. I really loved her and it took a while to prove to her that it wasn't jealousy, to prove to her that  I want us to be more than friends. But I need to move on, at least I need to try.

Yesterday went very well. I packed my things and said goodbye to my buddies, I'll miss them after all. It's not a bad idea deciding to come back home, yes I've missed my family a lot, eventhough, they had visited me a lot, but, I miss my home, my nightbours, J-Jane. I want to see her. my family were confused when I told them that I want to come back.

My family sent me to Manchester not only to study but to forget her. I guess I didn't take the break up quiet well so they thought it will be the best thing for everyone but not for me. I didn't find the right girl, they're all the same. I guess Jane was special not because she's my first love but it's bescause she's simple, hates dramas and she's just being herself. Man stop! She moved on I keep saying but I'm having that little hope that we'll back together one day, that she hasn't moved on yet like me, I'm keeping the hope.

I came back home, I've missed my bedroom more than anything. I'm happy that my parents accepted that I want to be in London not in Manchester. Don't get me wrong, I love Manchester they are nice people. As I promised I'll visit them more often, they welcomed me, they are very friendly.

I went to the living room then I found dad sitting. He was worried about something, let me guess, Is it about me? "Tobias, I need to talk with you." he said with a straight face.

"Yes, father what is it?" I replied, thinking about what he wants to say.

I have to assure him that I'm fine, I might even prove to him, but how? Will he really believe me? "I want to know about your decision. Are you sure  you want to continue here?" Dad asked very concern.

I took a deep breath and replied. "Yes dad I'm sure, I  moved on." I said very happy. When I said that I believed that I have really moved on. Then I remembred her, and, everything vanished.

"Just to let you know son, I've accepted you to come back home because I thought that might help. Don't get me wrong, I didn't spy on you, but one time when I called you, you weren't there so I talked with your friend Ed for a while. He told me that you have had few friends in Manchester. You weren't that sociable? Anyway, then when I realized that I was wrong, I'm sorry son." he said almost whispering. "I'm sorry that I made you go through all of this, It's my fault." he continued.

"I just thought you were going to me happy there, in Manchester, I know what do you think about, that we don't get you, but we've been all through this and we've moved on. I'm happy when you just said that you really did, the first heart break is not that easy, you might think it's the end of the world, but let me tell you it's not, we learn from our mistakes. That's why we're humans, mistakes makes us way stronger not weaker, being weak is being stupid and I don't want my son to be stupid." he said joking, I chuckled.

"You know Tobias, you're a clever boy. I really regret making you move away from us, I missed you." he smiled and tearing,  he has those sparkling eyes that makes you want to cry too. "I'm glad I'm home." I said smiling, hugging him.
