It's been a week and I still haven't figured out what my parents had been talking about that day. I've heard them again a couple times but I can never fully hear what they're planning. My heart wants to believe that it's nothing and in a few days everything will be back to normal but my mind keeps thinking that something's wrong! I hope I'm mistaken!
I open my blog and I see a bit more views than last time. It makes me happy and helps me forget a bit of what I'm thinking these days! I see some beautiful comments that say :"You're so perfect", "You inspire me " and "Please never quit this blog" ! I'm so excited that people like me for being myself and that I've inspired people... It's something new for me and I have to admit that I really enjoy it! I keep watching some comments for 10 minutes now when I get a message from a girl named Kelly. It says: "Hey Jade, my name is Kelly and I'm 17 years old! For a year now I've liked a boy in my school and I want to get closer to him but I don't know what to do. I'm scared that he'll reject me. What can I do?" . An idea just came to my mind. I'm going to write it in my blog so that everyone can see it: how to get close with the one you like!!!
"Dear Readers,
It's me Jade... How are you guys doing? Hope you're all fine. I'm doing pretty good! A couple of hours earlier I got a message that inspired me to write today's blog. It was from a girl and it said that she doesn't know what to do to attract the boy she likes! Although she asked advice on how to attract a boy I'm going to write advice for both girls and guys. Let's begin:
1) Be brave: ask him/her out. Besides what's the worst thing that can happen? He/She will say no! But that's not the end of the world...
2) Be yourself. Don't try to be someone else just to impress the one you like! There's nothing better than being yourself.
3) Be confident. When you talk to someone, your best self will come out only if you're confident.
4) Don't be shy. Talk to him and try to get to know to him/her. People appreciate it when you hear them and you'll have more chances after.I believe that if you follow all these you'll do great. I believe in you. And remember that many good things can happen by accident or when things go wrong! I ended up with my boyfriend after dropping my books on him!
After all it's not the end of the world if things don't turn out nice!Love you all, Jade"
And post...
I felt so good when writing all these! I really enjoy writing blogs like this one, where I can give my opinions and advice for things I believe are right!
I'm sitting in my room listening to music when suddenly my mom asks from me and my sister to go downstairs. She says it's an emergency family meeting (most of the times that's not for good). I'm thinking that this could be about the things I've been hearing them whispering and I'm scared to go find out what's happening. Despite my thoughts I'm headed downstairs feeling anxious. My mom seems excited and worried at the same time. I have never seen her like that before and that's what makes more nervous. I don't know what to say and I don't even want to look at them. As soon as I sit down next to my sister my mom starts talking.
"So, me and your father gathered you here because we would like to tell you something?" Mom says
"It's something we've been thinking for a long time and after all these conversations we think it's time to announce it!" Dad says
"What is it?" I ask
"You know that your father's job is a real estate agent who is currently working here in Brighton" mom says
"Our company needs to be transferred in New York, USA" dad says
"So you will have no job now?" My sister asks
"Well that's one option... But we've decided to follow our other option" dad says
"Which is...??" I ask scared for the answer I'm about to receive
"We're moving to New York!!!!" My mom says
"Whaaaat??? " I ask
"For real? I think I like it" my sister says
"No, no, no this can't happen. " I say
"Jade look at your sister! I like her spirit" mom says
"Mom you don't understand.... It's my last year in high school. In a few months I'm graduating. I have friends that we've been together for so long. Less than a month ago I got a boyfriend! You know how hard my previous years in school were... I've been bullied, and no one was talking to me! Now that my life is finally better, you're going to ruin it??" I say
"Honey, don't think of it as negative. You used to want to go the states!" Dad says
"I used to!! That was my 15 year old self who had no friends dreaming about her future! I'm not like that now..." I say while tears start forming in my eyes!
"Jade, it's gonna be fine... We've already searched it and the school that you're gonna go is perfect! It's one of the best schools in New York..." Mom says
"You don't understand. My life is ruined for good this time! I'll never find friends there and I'll never be happy again." I say and run to my room cryingI go to my room and I put my music loudly.... I can't believe what has happened to me! Why? It's so unfair. What can I do now? How will I say this to my friends and to Adam??
✨✨✨✨✨✨✨
Next day is here and it's the toughest day for me! I have to tell those terrible news in my friends and my boyfriend. I can't do this...it's so hard...how can I tell that in 2 weeks I'm leaving for New York for good?
I meet with Jordan outside my house and I try to look okay (I was gonna tell him along with the others at school). Immediately when he sees me he knows something is wrong.
"Hey what's wrong with you?" He asks
"Where do I start from?"
"The basic? Why are you moody? Valentine's Day is almost here and you should be happy with your boyfriend..." He says
"Umm... Jordan I have bad news..." I say
"What is it? You guys broke up?" He asks
"No,no it's not that... It's worse..."
"C'mon tell me what's wrong Jade..." He insists
"Me and my family are moving to the US" I say trying to avoid looking in his eyes
"Wait, what?? Why? How did this happen? When?"
"My mom and dad announced this yesterday to me and my sis. They said that my dad's company is moving there and because we can't afford to have my dad not working we need to follow. We're leaving in 2 weeks." I explain while starting to cry
"Jade, look at me... I know it's hard and I know it sucks but this is how thing are now! We can do nothing to prevent this from happening! I promise you I'll never leave you alone no matter where you live in the world! We'll always have each other..." He says while hugging meThat feels so good! He is the best BFF I've ever had! I still feel really bad though! When trying to whip the tears off my face Adam shows up and I start crying again! I can't look in his eyes and ask him to break up because I have to move!!!! When he reaches near me I suddenly run back in my home and curl in a corner and keep crying!!! I don't know why I did this but it felt like this was what I needed to do...
