I rush downstairs to see Winston. I immediantly push Bailey and Emily out of the way and hug him. everyone awws. "I missed you sis" he says kissing me on the head. "i missed you to" i say. After everyone got to see him, we started our breakfast.  A rage of sizzling bacon and chatter fills the dining hall.

"Emily, will you pass the bacon?"

"Sure aunt Bren"

"Bailey stop eating all the bacon!"

*bacon in mouth*"sorry mom"

"Whats it like over their?" my little cousin Jake asks. "well its definently not good, but let me tell you, it felt weird". "lets forget that, now that your hear your safe now, and you dont ever have to deal with it again!"My Uncle Flon says. Winston slowly looks down at the table.My dad looks at Winston"Winston, its over, right?"Dad,I signed up for the afghanstan war next year". 

silence

Winston looks at me, i look away. Im so angry! whats the point of any of this if hes leaving?!again! I push my chair back and run up to my room. Bailey and Emily following after me. I had many mixed emotions inside me. No one would understand what im going through. I throw my self on my bed and start tearing up. I hear Bailey's Stilletos and Emily's flats running up the stairs to me. they comfort me, and even though it always works, this time, it didn't.


Back downstairs, everyone leaves, Bailey and Emily went too. I could hear my parents screaming at the top of their lungs at Winston. I didn't mind it. he deserved it. its been hours ever since the breakfast started, from my window, i get a perfect view of the sun setting. My parents stop yelling. i hear footsteps to my door, then a knock."come in" I say. "It's me, Jeanine, your parents let me in"". Jeanine?! Jeanine is my best friend. I get up from my bed, Jeanine and i hugged. "im so glad your here! dont you have dance today?". "i have my ways" she says. "so, i know you probably dont want to talk about it, but Emily told me what happened". "oh, yea" i say. "Eva, if he made it these past years, He'll make it again" she says."I guess, but What that doesnt happen this time?". "don't think so negatively". she says. " but i speak the truth! theres nothing i can even do to stop it!". " you'll find a way Eva, ill help you" she says. "thanks" i respond.

all of a sudden, I hear Winston on the phone.

"yea, im taking the train this time, it leaves in a hour, yea, ok, its from here, to manhattan, ok, bye"

an idea popped into my head

"Jeanine I got it!" i say."what?" she says. "Pack your bags were going to Manhattan"
