Chapter 3

The next day when I reached home, I instantly texted Randy that I was home and tired. She told me that she’d pick me in an hour so that we could go out for dinner. During that hour I unpacked and headed towards the living room too watch some television. Pretty Little Liars was on, great! While watching Pretty Little Liars I somehow dozed off.

I dreamt about my new boss, Robbie Daniels. He was sitting staring at me like he did in the morning. We were having a moment until he walked up to me and hugged like he wouldn’t ever want to let go. Robbie then went down to one knee and proposed to me. I was standing there grinning like an idiot. No words were needed for the moment. We were just perfect for each other. While were hugging suddenly I heard somebody bang the door to Robbie’s office. It kept on bothering me in my dream and in real also. I suddenly fell on the floor and looked around to realize that I was in my living room, good and single. Oh I wished that it was reality. Wait, did I really think that?

The banging door brought me back to reality where my best friend was knocking like a maniac. I muttered a swear under my breath and ran up to open my door.

“I thought you were dead” she said as soon as I opened the door.

“Hello to you too darling.” I replied narrowing my eyes.

“Were you sleeping your depression?” she asked concerned.

“Depression? Oh yeah depression” for a moment I forgot that this girl still thought I was upset about not getting the job. “Lets not talk about it, lets head to dinner, I’m starving.”  I quickly said. Now lying on the phone was easy for me but right in her face, I bet I’d be caught.

“Yeah let’s go!” she said cheerily as she held my hand and pulled me outside. We arrived at a famous diner near my house and ordered burgers for our hungry tummies and French fries to go along. After a long chat of laughing out loud and getting glares I finally decided on telling her.

“Hey Randy, I want to tell you something” I said starting off seriously.

“Shoot” she said taking a sip of her drink

“I’m shifting to Reegville on Monday” I said as seriously as I could.

“What? Why? Don’t you like it here?” she asked shocked and most likely concerned.

“No, you know that’s not it. But I need to go” I insisted.

“Why? And how can you make a decision without telling me? And have you even thought about a job there? It’s not like you’ll go into a hospital and they’ll select you.”

“I know, I know. But I have to go, its very important.”

“No you don’t. That town has nothing for you!” she said being stubborn as always.

“It has something for me!” I got a little louder

“What? Huh? What has that town got for you? Did you already apply to another job without telling me? Did you make a secret boyfriend in a day?” she started. Well somebody was pissed. I wanted to laugh but I controlled and carried on with my façade.

“No its-” I was cut off my randy thankfully because I wasn’t ready to burst the bubble yet.

“What? Am I now not good enough to know?” she asked playing the guilt card on me.

“I have to go otherwise Robbie Daniels will sue me for signing a contract and running away!” I almost yelled.

“That’s the worst... Wait, wait?” she asked dumbfounded

“I. GOT. THE. JOB” I said taking a pause at every word but when the word job came up I shrieked and Randy did with me.  We both started shouting like little girls and randy came up to hug me.

“OMG! I knew it! You were perfect for this job why would they not select you? I swear I was about to go up to the Daniel’s office and shout like a maniac. But hey, you got the job!” she said excitedly.

“Yes! I didn’t believe it either” I grinned. We carried on for a while until Randy started sounding upset.

“Hey! What happened?”

“I love you and I’m really happy for you, but this is the first time we’ll be away in 13 years Trace. What am I going to do without you?” I really never thought of that. Being in Reegville meant being away from Randy and that was something that I couldn’t afford after what life has told me. I took a deep breath and started out,

“Hey, I think its time I leave you alone for a while. I think I’ve whined enough to make you sick and tired of me.” I said the first thing that popped in my head.

She gave me a small smile and we continued with a light hearted conversation.

“Hey, why don’t you come over for the weekend? You can help me with the final touches right? I’ll go there Sunday night. Is that okay?” I asked.

“Let’s make it a girl’s night” she added.

“Deal!” I smiled at her.

So technically now I have two days to pack away the big stuff and my life from this town.

“Will you meet your dad?” Randy suddenly interrupted my thoughts. I made no expression to which she suddenly shook her head “I’m so sorry, stupid question. I shouldn’t have asked that.”

I smiled at her telling it was okay. We spent the rest of the night just hanging around and reliving old memories.

Monday came in a blur. I had said my goodbyes to everyone, quit my old job and packed up my stuff. I decided not to sell my apartment; rather I locked it up and kept it as my backup house. I had a lot of stuff in there and I just didn’t know how to take everything.

The hardest part was saying goodbye to Randy. She hugged me tight until I couldn’t breathe and refused to let go. I knew she was silently crying and to be honest, I was also, but we both were hiding it from each other so that the other doesn’t get hurt.

After a long hug, we finally bid our farewell to each other and I left. Not long after, I reached my new home, rather mansion. I kept staring at it until I realized that life finally bought up a new challenge for me. If the past made me a good person as everyone says, what will the future hold for me?
