Chapter 2: Good Bye

Happy Reading :-)

'Said goodbye, turned around and you were gone, gone, gone
Faded into the setting sun, Slipped away

But I won't cry

'Cause I know I'll never be lonely

For you are the stars to me,

You are the light I follow

I will see you again, oh

This is not where it ends will carry you with me, oh
'Till I see you again '

-See You Again, Carrie Underwood

Diana Chase!

What's she doing here? Oh well this was to be done sooner or later anyway.

"Jenny, I know you are in here. Why the hell happened? Where were you since last two days? No messages, No calls? What is wrong with you?"

How did she know I was here? I haven't made a sound.

Hesitant steps took me to the bright, jolly and lively girl that was Diana Chase, my best friend for six years and the first person I extremely dreaded meeting today. Why you might wanna ask. Well, I don't think she will be overjoyed by the news of me moving either.

With just one look at my face, just like others, she knew I was hurt. And I was. Not physically, but mentally, I was breaking down to shrades.

I have always been the black sheep of the herd. And along with that, I had a really hard time making new friends and adjusting to changes. My hometown never asked me to change, everything was so constant. And now that was everything I needed to do for the next few months, maybe years.

Without a word, Diana pulled me into a hug.

"Do you want me to kill someone for you?" She whispered slowly into my ear trying to lessening the severity of the situation.

"I wish that was it", I said with a weak smile, "I have got to tell you something." And with that, I explained everything about Granny and how now I am supposed to move next week.

After I finished telling her everything, she remained silent for quite a while. Then she spoke.

"Why didn't you tell me Jenny? All this while, you were aone? why?"

"I am sorry Ana, I had no way to tell you. So, much happened, I don't know how am I going to survive the city without you guys. And so many changes? That's not me, I can't handle that." With that, I broke into sobs, in front of the person I trusted the most.

"Jenny, we are here for you. Look at the situation this way, we had to join college there after graduation anyway. Moving now will allow you more time to adjust", she said. Although she tried to look convincingly calm at the moment, her face was a mirror to her true emotions.

Her ever-smiling face was pale, similar to mine and her green eyes looked glassy. Her face was an enigma of sorrow and anything about it was not how my best friend Diana would look like on an ordinary day. It was evident that the news had hit her hard, just like it hit me.

With her up-to-date with this serene news, there was only one person who needed to be informed.
I washed and freshened up.

"I just texted Nick. He will meet us at our regular spot."
