Chapter 1
Beginning of the old end
I kissed him and whispered “good bye”, after that I wanted to walk away, but my feet didn’t want to leave the ground… I stood there, crying. We hugged one last time and then I walked away, towards the car and a new life.
2 weeks before that, I got a letter from Stanford, saying that my teacher had sent them a recommendation letter about me, and that they wanted me at their school… It also said that I had to leave Sweden, home, my friends, family, and everything. I couldn’t say no to an opportunity like that. So I decided to move…
I had jumped in the car, and we drove away, to the airport. I didn’t say much on the road. I just sat in the car, looking outside and relaxing. I realised that I couldn’t just sit there, quiet. In three hours and 16 minutes, I’ll be on a plane from Sweden. Soon arriving to my new home, a dorm.
I, out of no where, started to talk, a lot. My family were happy, kind of a sad happy moment… We had arrived at the airport, and I was about to say goodbye when all of my friends came. I thought I had cried the last tear, but no. My boyfriend gave me a dussin roses and hugged me, tight. I could feel the connection, at that moment I was sure that he would miss me. My friends just yelled “suprise!” and came out of no were.
Tears of joy fell down my chins, and then we sad a last good bye. Right as I walked away I got a text. From my boyfriend, Douglas, it said “Heyy bad! Hope you’ll have a great time, but I don’t think that it will be our time, so I’m breaking up, bye…”. My heart fell to the ground, but decided to keep walking, pretending that nothing had happened.
Chapter 2
Friend zoned hero? Or what?…
“Gate B14, please step on to the airplane, again gate B14”. That was my flight, I stepped on the plane and sat down, texting a last good bye to my folks. Quickly I fell asleep, but as soon as we left the ground I woke up.
I was exited, weirdly exited and of course, the first embarrassing thing to my new life… It was a guy next to me, a good looking kind of guy. And I sat there, sad, exited, emotionally mess, so yea.
Trying to act cool, I took out my computer and woke it up, and the first thing that pops up is a video. That I didn’t put there, so I was surprised. It was a video of my friends, so I plugged in my earphones and started it. My first reaction was of course, tears. But then I saw how beautiful it was. All my friends saying good things about me, having fun, making the situation happier. I just smiled.
The guy next to me looked at me and then said “excuse me, you look sad, and I can help, so what’s your name”, I was surprised, and happy… As usual…
-Hi, Jennifer, sorry for ruining your flight with me sitting next to you… I said.
-Ohh, no worry, you seem to be a fun girl, I mean besides the crying, no one likes tears. Well, ohh, sorry, I’m Trevor. he said
-Okay, so hi Trevor, you seem really fun, and not to be creepy but you have beautiful eyes, haha..
-Thanks? I guess… Well, what is happening to you? You look sad, he answered.
-Yea, you shouldn’t worry, nothing big I guess. Oops, the food is here, what did you choose?
-You sure? I took the chicken, I mean, who dosen’t like some chicken, right?! he said with a laugh.
-Me too!! I love chicken hahaha…
