Ariana's P.O.V
Its been a few days after the incident still I can't forget it. I tried hard but no I can't get it out of my head. This thing keeps haunting me every time I close my eyes.
Why did I had to be there? Why not somebody else? Why me?
But I can't go back, I can't change what's already done. I wish I could but I can't. Think positive Ariana, Everything Happens For A Reason.
I let out a small huff. Why am I even having conversation about this. This is useless.
Suddenly an idea pop up in my mind. Now I know what I have to do.
I stood up from the bench I was sitting a few minutes ago cussing myself for what happened. I came to this park to think what to do. I was really scared. But now I have found the solution.
I ran back to my house. As I reached my house I pushed open the door harshly. I ran to the living room just to find my parents, sitting on the couch with shocked and concerned look on their faces.
"What happened dear?" My dad asked getting up. "Nothing dad its just I wanted to talk to you about something" I replied. "Is it about that incident Ari, you should forget about that its not your fault. But if you wanna talk we can talk" my mom said reassuring me. "Thanks mom but no not about that I want to talk about something else". " What is it dear?" My dad asked with a very concerned look. "Dad actually I want to shift. I mean, I want to go away from this place. Whenever I see all this familiar surroundings my mind keeps on repeating those scenes" I replied almost crying.
I was there, I could have done something but I couldn't. My thought were cut of by my dad "OK, I have decided, we are going to New York and yeah get ready".
I ran upstairs to my room to get ready. I am very happy. I know that I have the most supporting parents.Ashley's P.O.V
I woke up with a massive headache. I wasn't able to sleep last night. All those things that happened a week ago still kept on revolving in my mind. I sat up on my bed rubbing my face. " Shit! My face is a mess. I think I need to take a shower". I stood up lazily and went to the bathroom. I quickly stripped down and took a warm comfy shower. I took a nice outfit and put it on. " Ash, breakfast is ready" my mom called me from kitchen. I went down to find my dad already eating the breakfast with mom. "Ashley we have a surprise for you but we don't know if you will like it or not. But always remember this, whatever we say is for your good" my dad said. "What is it dad?" I asked curiously. "We are leaving for New York in three day."
What? This was unexpected.
"Why dad? Why are we leaving" I asked dad. "This is all because you seem very shocked after that incident. You don't talk to your friends anymore. So we though that maybe shifting will help you overcome".
I stood there for a while thinking about what dad said. Maybe this is what I need a new start. Yeah this is right I need to start a new life but I have to stay away from people who care about me. I don't want to hurt them. But maybe this can help me. Maybe this will make me forget about my past.
" Okay dad, I will go to New York " I said making my mom and dad smile.
I couldn't help but smile myself. I feel good, a lot better.
