Chapter Eighteen//Friends

Today is my last day here. My last day with Jacob.

My last day living in a huge house. Tomorrow my life is going to change. I will be moving to New York city and my family will be living in a pent house.

Mom tries to make it sound much better than it feels by telling me that the pent house is much nicer than our house right now. She says it's much fancier and has an amazing view of the city.

It doesn't make me feel better though. I don't care about what they have there, because there's no Jacob. I walk up to my completely empty room, besides my bed, and take one last look.

This is the last night I will ever be sleeping in this room. I wonder if Rachel felt this way when she was moving.

I put my shoes on and walk to Jacob's house.

I ring his doorbell and when the door opened I did not expect to see this person. Penny opened the door giving me a nervous look.

This makes me curious to why Penny was in Jacob's house. Bad thoughts pop into my mind to why Penny is there. I was about to ask her but I didn't. I felt kind of jealous, but I knew I shouldn't since I'm not with Jacob anymore.

"Hey." I say casually to Penny.

"Hi." Penny nervously fiddles with her loose watch around her left wrist. Jacob appears behind her.

Penny moves to the side so Jacob is right in front of me.

"This is your last day," Jacob starts. "I know you and Penny haven't talked in a week, so I brought her here for you two to get along again."

I nod and look at Penny. She blabs about how sorry she is and she admitted it was her fault. I couldn't stay mad at her, it would be pointless.

"It's fine. I know you didn't mean it. Let's just..forget about it?"

Penny smiles and we quickly give a friendly hug.

"Should we go inside? It's cold." Jacob motions us inside and he closes the door behind him.
