(Flashback to this morning)
  Mum: Jade! Jacks! Come down!
 
  I was combing my hair just in time for school. I grabbed my bag and headed downstairs to the kitchen where my mum was.
 
  Jade: Morning mum! Morning Jacks!
 
  I sat down beside Jackson, my older brother and ate a piece of toast. My mum had a grief expression and I wondered what was up with her. Everything seems off. Jackson was being super quiet, unlike his usual self, when he was hyper and excited for everything.
 
  Jade: Umm, is everything ok?
 
  Jackson sighed and turned to look at me with a solemn expression.
 
  Jackson: We're moving.
 
  I frozed. This couldn't be happening. It's only the beginning of my last year at high school. I can't just...leave.
 
  Jade: When?
 
  Mum: In 2 months. We're leaving to LA because I've been transfered to their headquarters to become their head nurse. I must go, Jade. And I'm definitely not leaving both of you here. Alone.
 
  I sighed in defeat. There was nothing I can do. Moving is scary. Especially all across the world. That means I have to leave everything behind. My school, my friends, my home, my graduation...
 
  And Christian.

  Christian pulled away to wipe my tear. He was worried and curious aboit why I cried. I didn't know if I should tell him. Yet. I won't even be able to attend homecoming and I'm leaving the day after Christian's birthday. How can I tell him? He looked so oblivious to everything that's going to happen.
 
  I forced a smile and stood up.
 
  Jade: Can I talk to you for a while? Alone?
 
  Just as he was going to nod, the bell rang.
 
  Christian: I'll see you later.
 
  He pecked my lips and went to class.
 
  What will he do when he knows about it? Will this be the end of our relationship?
