2 weeks.
It has been 2 weeks since I and Kyle became friends. Kyle has been a really good friend to me and I must say,he is hardworking. He handles the restaurant pretty well.

"We are going to New York" Kyle says enthusiastically.
"What?" I sputter.
"You said you've always dreamt of going to New York and my Dad is celebrating Tenth year anniversary of his restaurant in NewYork. I'll be going to the Event in NewYork as a representative of the crowville branch of Brown restaurant. You'll be going with me to NewYork so that way you can fulfill your dream of going to NewYork city" He explains.

I've always wanted to go to New York city ever since when I was a little girl. Kyle wants me to go to NewYork with him, but I can't go with him. I know this is a one time opportunity but I can't accept, why?.
It's because I can't leave my mum alone in Crowville.

"As much as I would love to go to NewYork, I won't be able to go" I refuse.

His smile falters by what I just said. "Why?. We will just be spending 3 days there. We'll explore the city, it will be fun" He persuades me.

"Certain reasons. Besides I can always go to NewYork another time" I say.
"if it is because of your job don't worry I'll take care of it" He leans against the locker beside me.

I open my locker and pick my bag from it, stuff my apron inside then shut my locker.
"Not only that Kyle, they're other reasons. I can't go with you to NewYork" I state frankly.

"Oh c'mon Kendall, so you're just gonna allow this opportunity slide away like that?" He questions.
"Another opportunity will come"
I walk away from him and head towards the locker room door.

"Okay Kendall, in case you change your mind inform me. I'll be Leaving Thursday" He says making me stop my pace towards the door. I look back and say "Bye" not responding to his last statememt.
I open the door and shut the door behind me as I left the locker room and I hear Kyle yell 'Bye Kendall' from inside.

I exit the restaurant and head home.

•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
I'm in my room, it's a typical Tuesday night. Work was really stressful today so I'm really tired. I'm laying down on my bed and the memories of Brian comes flowing in my head.

"I won, I won, I won" Brian chants in excitement.
"Not fair, you cheated" I pout at him "The game pad you gave me isn't working well" I lie.
"Kendall the game pad is working fine. You just don't want to accept the fact that I won the game" He says.
"Did you win?" I question, pulling him closer to me with the collar of his shirt. He leans on me and looks into my eyes, clearly hypnotize by it. "No, you won" He whispers, his eyes still lost in mine. He leans his face in and closes his eyes, he moves his lips closer to mine but I shove him off me which makes him wake up from his reverie. I stand up from the couch. "Why did you stop the kiss" He pouts.
I let out a little laugh "If you want the kiss, catch me" I wink at him and scamper away from him.
"I'm gonna catch you and get that kiss".

The sound of the door opens, breaking me out of my trance. I hurrily wipe the tears formed in my eyes when I see my mum. "Honey are you okay" She strides towards me on the bed and sits next to me.
"Yeah, I'm fine" I sniff, sitting up on the bed.
"Were you crying" She questions, tilting my face up to meet her gaze.

"No I was.." She cuts me off "You really miss Brian".
"Yes I do" I say tears falling down my eyes. "Awww, please don't cry" She said wiping the tears of my face with palm.
"Everything will be fine" She says softly. "He's never coming back, is he?" I sniff. "I don't know honey" She says pulling me in for a cuddle.
