Lisa

"Are you sure you haven't left out anything important?" My best friend asked me as I closed the bagpack that I'll be hand-carrying tomorrow for my flight.

"Yeah, I think so." I heaved a sigh before joining the raven-haired girl on my bed.

"You should not think so. If you forget something important, it would be difficult to ship it all around the globe." She said with a stern look on her face which made me chuckle. "Is there anything funny Nalalisa?!" She asked, using my Thai name, with annoyance which made me burst into laughter.

"Wow you really sound like my mom. You even used the name they call me!" I guffawed which made her slap me in annoyance. "Ouch! That actually hurts! You just slapped my boobs!" I cried out, clutching my sideboob.

"We both know you don't have boobs Lisa." She simply stated with sass and bitchiness that made me know not to mess with her any further or else I'll be facing dire consequences.

"Double ouch!" I feigned being hurt by her statement.

"Don't worry Lis, you're beautiful just the way you are." She flashed her gummy smile as she lightly pinched my cheeks which made me blush a little.

"Stop! You're making me blush!" I admitted and she just giggled adorably.

"Well, you're even more lovely when you blush." She said so sincerely that made my heart skip a beat and my breathing stutter. I fought for words to come, but nothing left my mouth. But thankfully I didn't have to since my phone dinged, signaling a text. 'Thank God, whoever's you are that texted me!' Hastily, I retrieved my phone and read a text from Chaeng.

'Did you tell her already?' It said and I just about fainted for a whole new different reason. Tonight, I had planned to confess my feelings to my bestfriend but to be honest, I don't think I'll ever have the courage to do it. I'm already a shivering mess just by thinking about it.

"What is it?"

"Oh, nothing. It was just Chaeng." I dismissed, my heartbeat elevating into a thundering beat.

"You look a bit pale. Is there something wrong?" She asked with worry etched across her face, apparently sensing my rising anxiety.

"I'm fine! I'll just grab a few drinks! I'm thirsty." I answered, my voice rising a few octaves. Quickly, I stood up and ran away to the kitchen like my life depended on it. Coward.

I escaped to the kitchen and gave myself a moment to regain myself. When I felt my breathing slow down a little, I decided to open my phone again and read the new texts from my friend. 'Lisa, I know you are scared, but this is you're last chance to do it. She might have put your problems under the rug just because you are leaving, but the fact still remains that you owe her the truth. No one deserves to be left out in the cold without knowing the real reason why.'

After reading her texts, my anxiety turned into a gut-wrenching guilt. Now that I've grown a bit wiser and reflected on my actions, I realized just how absolutely immature and childish I had handled my feelings. The pain I suffered had changed me and made me become wiser and stronger. I know I could handle the situation better now and I could only do that by being honest with myself, my feelings, and finally open myself up again to the person who is a big part of my being.

'Thank you Chaeng. I really need that reality check.' I sent before adding. 'Ummmm... can I ask you something?'

Nervously, I waited for her reply.
