THREE MONTHS LATER ( January 4th, 2019 )
"Nick, come on. It's not funny." I said. Nick and I grew quite close ever since he came back.

I thought that he'd be like his older brother or much worse but he's actually the total opposite.

He's sweet, polite, savage when he wants to be, awesome when it comes to being a business man and best of all he's like a younger brother to me. He's always there for me and I likewise.

I had recently dyed my hair again after months of contemplating on which colour to go with. I went with grey highlights.

"Why didn't you do the whole thing?" Mark asked

"Why didn't you do the whole thing?" Mark asked. "Yeah you would have passed as a stylish granny" Nick said smirking.

"Don't bother with them, it's looks great" Gabby said.

I had introduced Mark and Gabby to Nicholas and they instantly became good friends.

Mark and Gabby got along better now compared to before. Mark and I also got closer.

Even closer than when we were younger. I hoped that this would last forever.

But fate has a way of changing things you don't want to change.

"I should get going now" I said. "Okay, hey wait! Can you please give this to Ashton for me?" Nicholas said as he handed me a gift bag.

"Sure. Alright bye guys" I said before existing the coffee shop. I called mom to pick me up.

She had called earlier today and asked that when I have time, she would like to talk to me about something.

She arrived 10 minutes later. "Hey mom, thanks for coming.

I left my car at home. Nicholas dropped me here" I said as I closed the car door and put on my seat belt.

"So who else did you go with? Was it just him?" She asked.

"Oh no, Mark and Gabby were also there. Don't worry I only drank coffee. I'm taking a break from wine and alcohol." I said in a reassuring voice.

"I'll drop you home, okay" she said. "By the way, your new hair colour looks nice. It's um unique?" mom unsurely said.

"Huh, oh thanks. I thought you would be mad at me" I said.

"I was, but I'm going to the salon to change my highlight colour." She said.

"Ooooooo......... what colour?" I asked. "I'm deciding to be bold and go for red highlights." mom said. "OMG! That's gonna look so cool with you" I said.

"Of course anything is wear or do I rock it" she said cheekily.

"Geez mom, what to say about you" I said.

"We can always stray so far away from what we're suppose to originally discuss you know." I said unable to hold back my laughter.

"Yeah, well we specialize in that area" she said. She held her head as a look of pain came over her face. "Mom are you okay? I asked worried.
