I let myself fall onto my bed and closed my eyes.

Sleep is all I need right now.

At the same moment:

Julia's p.o.v;

"Mom, I wanna move back to Ohio."

Julia's p.o.v;

"What ?" My mom looked a little shocked by what I just said.
"I wanna move back to Ohio." I said once again.
"I- uhm- you wanna move back w-what to Ohio ?"
"That's what I just said."
"B-but why ?" She sounded very surprised.
"I thought if we move back to LA everything will become like the way it was...but everything changed. I don't feel well staying here...mom please." I begged.
"Julia...it's not that easy. We can't just move." She said calm.
"Why ?" I furrowed my eyebrows.
"Your dad and I have jobs. It would be hard to find a new job in Ohio. I don't know if your dad would get transferred again."
"Can't you just talk with your boss ?"
"No, it's not that easy as I just told you."
"Yes, it is. You just don't want to!" I raised my voice.
"Julia, we just moved back to LA." My mom also raised her voice.
"And now I wanna move again."
"We won't move anywhere young lady. We will stay here."

Before I would lose it, I ran upstairs into my room crying.

I know that we can't just move.
I guess I just can't accept it.

Later that day:

At the park:

"Catch it." Aria yelled and threw a basketball at me.
"Where did you got this basketball from ?" I yelled back.
"I don't know." She shrugged with her shoulders.
"Well then..." I also shrugged with my shoulders and continued walking around the park.

I heard Aria running after me.

"Julsen..."
"Don't call me that." I rolled my eyes.
"I heard you and mom talking today."
"And ?"
"Why do you wanna move back to Ohio ?" She asked very confused.
"It doesn't matter. It won't happen anyways."

I know Aria felt very uncomfortable with me acting like this.

"It's beautiful here, isn't it ?" She suddenly changed the subject.
"Yeah." I nodded lightly.

There was an awkward silence for a few seconds between us until Aria broke it with an question I prayed I wouldn't get from anyone.

"What happened between you and Grayson ?"

I took a deep breath and closed my eyes.

Ugh...life hates me.

"A lot..." Was all I said.
"Tell me."
"I don't wanna talk about it."
"But that's the only way for me to help you." She wrapped her arm around me.

Should I tell her ?
She's my sister.

"I uhm...I did a horrible mistake." I stopped walking and removed Aria's arm from me.

Aria also stopped walking. But not even one word left her mouth. She just stared at me.

I know she wanted me to continue talking...and that's exactly what I did.

I told her everything...everything that happened and Jesus it felt so good.

"Now I'm here...confused and disappointed in my own self. I am so stupid." I ran my hands through my hair because of frustration.

Aria stared blankly into my eyes.

"Yes..." She said.
"Yes ?" I furrowed my eyebrows.

Is that all ?

"Yes, you are stupid. So fucking stupid Julia! And I shouldn't help you at all with this whole situation." She raised her voice with every word she said in my face.

My jaw dropped...and my eyes started filling up with tears once again.
I looked down at my hands and played with them, thinking it would help me to control myself.

"But I will help you..." she said all of a sudden.

My head immediately shot up.

"What ?" I asked.
"I will help you, because Grayson made you this way and I know that the real Julia has way more inside her. Maybe we weren't always that nice to each other...but somehow I always saw you as my idol. And to be honest it would be a honor for me to help my idol finding the right way back to her old self again."

Maybe life doesn't hate me...

"Aria..." Tears rolled out of my eyes none stop. "I'm so sorry."
"Don't be sorry. You're my sister and I love you, okay ?" She hugged me tight.
"I love you too." I cried in her shoulder.
"Stop crying...I have a plan."
