Run!

Chapter 2-Unexpected Facts

Everything seems to be finally perfect. I feel very lucky that I have them. We are willing to risk everything for each other and we all have proved it so many times.

"So Katherine tell us what's new in your life. None of us has spoken with you for a while, so we don't know how you are doing." David asked her with curiosity.

"I don't know what to tell you guys first! Next fall I will be studying politics. I have a boyfriend named Taylor Parker and he will be studying politics too. We are considering if we would like to live together in Seattle, because I'm moving there in two weeks. The university is located there, so Taylor has to move there too." Katherine said and I'm so happy for her. And, Seattle? That's perfect because I am moving there too, so this would be an advantage for me. I will have a friend in a city where I don't know anyone.

"Katherine! That's great I feel very happy for you. You have really moved on. And guess what. I'm right behind you. Do you have any idea where I am moving tomorrow? " I asked her. I'm excited.

"Oh god Cecilia, are you moving where I think you are? "

"Seattle! We are both going there. And this would be an opportunity for me to meet Taylor." I said without being able to hide my enthusiasm.

"Oh now we are all jealous of you girls! It would be perfect if we could be all together in the same city." David said and Christopher agreed.

"No, I don't think it would be perfect. We can't have a fresh start in our lives if we live in the same city, and if we meet with each other every day. We wouldn't forget about what happened to us. It will haunt us forever. Don't you get it? We have to get to know new people to move on from this terrible past year. What I am trying to say, is that we should experience different things with different people." Calvin said, not very politely. He sounds so angry and confused. But I don't blame him. He's totally right. But still, he could make himself sound a little more kind.

"What are you saying Calvin? Do you want to forget about us? Is this what you want? Oh man I think that this new chick you're dating is suffocating you. She is trying to change you! What's her problem with us? " David asked him without being able to handle his obvious anger.

"What? What new girlfriend are you talking about? You told David about her and you didn't tell me? What has happened to you Calvin? You chanced. You don't seem to be the same person anymore! And please tell me that you haven't told her about what we all went through, because I swear to you, that if you have, I am going to hit you so hard that you will forget about this new freak that you call a girlfriend."

"Save it, Chris! I didn't tell her anything. I know that this cannot be told. To anyone. And dude, who do you think I am? Of course I don't want to forget about you. Each of you is someone that I would risk my own life for. Over and over again. I have proved it. Many times. And this girl is not who you think she is. She is not trying to change me, and you don't even know her. So do not judge her." Calvin said and everyone got silent.

Calvin has a new girlfriend. I cannot believe that he is over me already. Now I know. He doesn't feel anything about me anymore. It hurts so much. Knowing that everything he would do with you, now he does it with another girl. I think that I look so sad and shocked right now. Damn I don't want them, and especially him, thinking that I am not okay with him being with another girl. But I cannot help being sad as hell. It has been just a month since we broke up... How can he fall in love with someone else and forget about me so fast?

"I- I am going to the bathroom for a minute. Excuse me." I said and I went down to the restaurant's bathroom as fast as I could. Okay now I am sure that everyone has figured out that I am not fine.
