~The day before Justin went with the guys in the club.~  

Your POV  

The girls and I haven't really spent much time at the mall. Our first destination was the food corner and there we stayed.

I have finally found my appetite again and so I didn't know what I should eat first. It felt as if I had now left all evil thoughts and evil spirits in the basement, this morning.

I was free again. Only caring about my relationship with Justin still managed to get me a headache, but I was convinced that we will get this work again.

I felt like Marissa and Miriam watched me surprised when I flushed down the second piece of pizza with a big sip of my Coke. I had to chuckle when I saw their eyes.  

“Do you get anything to eat at home?”, Miriam wondered and laughed. I sat up straight and smiled slightly ashamed.  

“As much as she has lost weight, Justin must have put her on a diet.”, Marissa joked and took a sip of her coffee. It was relatively early, maybe too early for pizza. But be honest: it's never too early for pizza.  

We laughed together, and I felt some warmth in me. I felt the life and the love for life. Our laughter trailed off, I got myself a cupcake and sat back to my girls.  

“What was wrong with you”, Marissa asked me out of nowhere after we have been silent for a few minutes. I knew that I must talk about it. But it was anything but easy for me.

I sighed and fiddled with my sunglasses around on the table without looking at the two of them.  

“We were worried. One couldn't reach you. You haven't texted back and didn't go to the phone. From one day to the next you were no longer accessible.”, Marissa said, trying to take eye contact with me. Out the corner of my eye I could see as Miriam nodded approvingly and suddenly felt her warm hand on mine.    

“You can trust us.”, she whispered and gently stroked her thumb over my handback. I nodded, grateful that I have two really great human being sitting opposite me right now. I knew that I could really trust them. I cleared my throat and leaned slightly over the table, so that I may speak quietly, but the two can still hear me well.  

It took a good hour when I was finally done to tell my story. They both looked at me with shock.

Neither of both has said a word during the last hour. They were stunned. Both had tears in their eyes, pity was written in their faces. But I don't need pity.

“I need your help. I have to put the thing with Justin back in order, otherwise I will lose him.”, I said and smiled gently at both. They wiped the tears from their faces and smiles at me.

“We will help you.”, they said in sync.

We put our heads together and discussed and exchanged ideas. However women are sometimes we forgetting the time. And I was hungry again. Luckily, we were still sitting in the mall.  

This time I have not eaten alone, the girls have also bought something and we made fixed plans.

“Without your help I would never have such a brilliant idea. I thank you.”, I said goodbye and got into my car.
