Luckily Will and I were very unorganised and hadn't booked any accommodation yet but the flights still had to be cancelled, I had procrastinated doing it because we were only broken up for three weeks and when he said he wanted to get back together I assumed the holiday was back on.
I log in and request to cancel the flights or change the passengers, as it's such late notice I can only get 40% of the original money back and the passengers can't be changed, great. Couldn't he just have held out for another two weeks, I really was excited to go to Rome. But I have all summer to go somewhere else!JW:
'hey so I enquired about cancelling
those flights and we can only get 40% of the money back because it's late notice, and
we can't change the passengers'he replies not soon later telling me just to cancel them and he transfers me the difference so I wouldn't lose out on any money since he was the reason we weren't going. Personally I didn't want the money, I kind of felt like he was only giving me it to clear his conscience not actually because he felt bad that I was missing out on a holiday.
I looked at the extra £140 in my bank account, I think about spending it on clothes or make up. As I think about what to do with it I scroll through insta and come across this Shawn Mendes ad on for you and a friend to win a flight and VIP to his concert in Toronto when you donate money to a charity. I read all the terms to see if international fans could enter and couldn't find anything saying I couldn't so I donated $200 which still left me with some money left over from the exchange rate. I lay back in bed sighing in relief that that was sorted, it was a win win really, I'd donated to charity and got rid of the money.
I get up after aimlessly scrolling social media for way too long and make a cup of coffee and some cereal, Grace joins me at the table. I tell her about Will, I also tell her about him texting Halyey which I'd hesitated telling her because Grace was friends with Hayley and I didn't want to create any drama in her friend group."What a prick!" She says once I've finished.
"Yea I know, the most annoying thing is that I find it so hard to be mad at him" I sigh.
"You should be! He's so selfish leading you on like that, and texting his ex!" Se scoffs, I gave her a half smile and shrug. I then tell her about the Shawn Mendes competition. "Imagine you won, I want to be you're plus one" she says.
"I'm pretty sure it's when you're away in Europe, and I highly doubt I'll win anyway, even if I did they'd realised I'm not from Canada and pick someone else because it would cost so much to fly me out there" I say.
The next couple of weeks drag on, I packed up all the things in my room that remind me of Will and tried to stay busy. I spent some days with the girls at the beach and went to some parties, the girls make sure I have no time to mope around about Will.
Nothing exciting really happened, just your average summer holiday. That was until my phone rang with a international phone number._________________________
