I slept after my mental breakdown, and when I woke up, sunlight was streaming through my window.
For a moment, I considered resuming my breakdown but bam-
Realization hit me hard.
Somehow, I the tears weren't flowing out of my eyes, no matter how hard I tried. And somehow, I didn't feel all that gloomy anymore.
I realized I couldn't do anything about this situation , and I don't know why , but I suddenly decided to embrace my new life.
**** 6 DAYS LATER ****
It was here. The day of doom. Ugh, no. Oh well, yeah. Whatever. In the past few days, we had packed all the necessary stuff, the majority of it being my books, as I had made it pretty clear that I had no intention of leaving them behind.
Books are my best friends. I mean really. Reading is one of those few things that can improve my mood ANYTIME. Insane fangirling is SO my thing.
THE MORTAL INSTRUMENTS, HARRY POTTER, (those two are just love) Divergent, The Hunger Games, TFIOS, the maze runner, Girl Online, Percy Jackson and HoO, The Selection, Twilight, The Immortals, Looking for Alaska, Paper towns. I hope I'm not forgetting any though. So most of the time, this helps divert my attention.
And yet again, I got distracted and strayed from the topic but well nevermind. ( Just ADHD Problems)(That was a PJo ref for you guys there :D)
Since it was my last day, all of us , that is Liz, Noel , Some other friends and I had planned to meet at Starbucks, and then my parents would pick me up from there and leave for Brooklyn. The last few hours with my friends. I wanted to make the most of it.
In an hour, I was out of the house.
I went to every single corner, saying a silent goodbye and recalling all the memories I shared with each centimeter square of the place. I wanted to visit every single area in the house - the garden , the store room , and even the walls where I had doodled my name rather shabbily when I was 7 , "Melani" , because I hadn't known then that there was an "e" at the end of my name, despite being repeatedly told so by my parents.
Not being able to control myself, this time , tears started forming in my eyes. I slipped into the backseat of the car and within 5 mins reached Starbucks, which was just round the corner.
And when I got out of the car, the scene that greeted me left me just standing there, staring with my eyes wide open like a nincompoop.
These guys had got at least 10 more people to bid me farewell.
There was Noel, and Liz, and Jem , and a few from my class.
We all greeted each other and took our favorite spot in the area. We chatted for 2 hours so , and then all too soon it was time to leave.
I hugged all my friends, and then Liz, then Jem and last of all, Noel.
I couldn't believe this. It was happening. It was time to be brave and embrace whatever might lie ahead.
But I was determined.
After all, the end is the new beginning.
(AN: Sorry for keeping this chapter short guys, it will be compensated for :') Till then, keep reading! )
