My red string.

Chapter Two: While being apart.

School started almost a month ago. Even though I was having a lot of homework and projects to do and I didn't have a lot of time, I was doing "well". Nathan left the city before going back to school so he could prepare his things in his new home and all that stuff. We've try to talk and make FaceTime or Skype almost every day but sometimes it was hard for us for the different schedules that we had. I was trying to don't think too much about this difficult situation so I didn't have a breakdown and I think blocking this on my mind was kind of helping.

Australia was amazing. I always thought I would like a lot the campus and everywhere I was supposed to spend time when I came here but I never imagined it would be this beautiful and amazing. I was loving everything here and everyone was really kind and gentle with me, including my host family. The fact that I was enjoying this great experience was making me feel better about being away from Nicole. But when we made FaceTime, that were the times that I felt how my heart was breaking. I always acted normal but deep inside,  when I saw her on the screen of my laptop, I wished that I could be next to her, hugging her or giving her kisses. I really missed her a lot but I didn't want her to feel bad so I pretend that I was working it out fine.

So Halloween parties were coming and my closest friend invited me to go to the traditional party of our town. Nathan and I always went together to that party and we wore couple costumes. It was like a tradition. I wasn't sure if I wanted to go but I think I should. I should keep living my life as usual besides him wasn't here with me, as usual. Things were getting bad between the both of us. As time went, I hadn't less encouragement to talk with him. I wanted to take my space. This wasn't something healthy for me and I bet it wasn't too for him. So I started to take distance, all I could to him was that I had a lot of things to do and that he should be enjoying and stop having me as a waste of time. Every time I told him that he totally denied but all I wanted was to clear up my mind and instead of feel alright when we did FaceTime, I felt worse. Maybe things were getting to an end.

Here in Australia they celebrate Halloween too. I was getting a lot of invitations to different Halloween parties. It was important to me to go to this events so I could meet more people and socialise. In these times I could stop thinking about Nicole and the fact that she was trying to ignore me or something like that. I thought we made a promise and that we were going to try that everything was fine between the both of us but maybe she changed her mind. I was starting to imagine many things and I think I was already overthinking. I didn't know what to do, we were so far and I was feeling she was walking more away from me.
