Christmas was nearing and I was pretty glum that I had to have a cast on for it. I had already done my Christmas shopping so that was one less worry to taunt me. I didn't have any friends to meet up with during the break so I was pretty bored and I was incredibly surprised when I got a text from Roxanne, three days before Christmas.
22nd of December ~ 18:47
From Roxanne :
Hey July,
Hope u had a good break so far. Wanna meet up in Starbucks at 2 tomorrow? There is a group of us going down town but we can hang out after they're all gone home.

To Roxanne :
Sorry Roxanne,
I don't really think that's what I need right now, thanks. Have fun with the others.
July xxx

From Roxanne :
Aww plz July! I really think we need to talk. Have u even seen Facebook?
That message put a lump in my throat. I had hid my laptop at the bottom of my wardrobe and deleted the Facebook app on both my phone and iPad. I also made a new email to be logged into so I got no notifications from Facebook.
22nd of December ~ 19:05
To Roxanne :
On an social media detox at the moment.
22nd December ~ 19:06
From Roxanne :
U can't hide away forever.
22nd December ~ 19:08
To Roxanne :
I know, I'm just taking a break to actually enjoy my Christmas thx.
22nd December ~ 19:10
From Roxanne :
But can't we meet up?
22nd December ~ 19:13
To Roxanne :
Look I've made a mistake but u know me well enough to know I'd never kiss him on purpose, to hurt u. Although I've slipped up u have actually hurt me as well. When we were best friends u did things that hurt me and u made mistakes but I gave u another chance. I've already apologised to u and there's nothing else I can do. I've been in hospital for a week and things aren't a walk in the park for me right now so meeting up with u is not what I need right now, no offence. X
22nd December ~ 19:15
From Roxanne :
Wow July. Look can't we talk about this face to face?
22nd December ~ 19:17
To Roxanne :
I said no okay?
22nd December ~ 19:19
From Roxanne :
Fine but u can't just hide away from me!
22nd December ~ 19:21
To Roxanne :
Look Roxanne, I'm not hiding away from u. I will see u in a week or two for school. I have things in my life right now that are hard and I want a chance to clear my head. Please do not contact me again until the break is over. That would be most appreciated. J xxx
22nd December ~ 19:22
From Roxanne :
Fine, but u wouldn't believe what's going on right now on Facebook. Just to let u know. And this will be my last text until next year. Goodbye idiot, u blew ur chance to fix this. R xxx
22nd December ~ 19:24
To Roxanne :
All I said was I wanted a break. I'm not even free tomorrow! Sorry for the upset but I honestly need a break. We will talk soon, I promise. Bye for now, July xxx
22nd December ~ 19:25
From Roxanne :
Subject : Last ever text of this year to July Summer.
Whatever. Goodbye. I never really liked u anyways. Lots of love, Roxanne xxx (I wouldn't recommend going on social media xxx)
That was not a fun conversation.
