I took as much time I could to drive home, for two good reasons. One being I had to be stable enough to drive and my tears refused to get out of the way so everything wouldn't be one big blob. And two, I didn't want to go back. I didn't want to be in the same place I grew up with my best friend and wanting to call him up saying a new frozen yogurt shoppe opened, because he wasn't here anymore.
Honestly I tried to make my life work, I took a couple fitness classes like yoga an kickboxing. I tried clubbing but that ended in me being eye rapped and I left within 20 minutes. My mom tried to get me to join a book club but I was quick to shoot down that offer. What do you even do in a bloody book club?
After the first two months of hopelessly moping around, my father got me a dog. It was just a 2 month old golden retriever and I'd be lying if I said I was not happy for a while. But then accidents and chewing began and I really wanted to give him away, but being a people pleaser my father sent him to a dog obedience camp. It was crazy two weeks later Leo came back a whole new dog. I had a great cuddle buddy now, that knew just how to tell me when he needed to pee.
As another month went by, I came back to my lonesome self. 3 and a half months, only about 9 left. I cried myself to sleep most nights.
Ashton never called, and when I say never I mean never. Not once since I last saw him, and every one of my calls just went to voicemail. He did text me though. I got a simple 'hiiii, miss ya A x' three days after he left and of course u replied that I missed him also and to call me. That was it though, no skype or FaceTime. No more texting or snapchating. He basically disappeared, from this town and my life. But not from my thoughts and memories.
"You can't just sit and cry about it all the time, Annabelle." My mother scoffed, putting a forkful of salad in her mouth. She had scheduled a lunch at this over priced restaurant.
"He's best friend, I can't just forget about him. He doesn't talk to me anymore, and it hurts." I swirled noodles around my own fork. "I'm just reminded of him my everything here."
"Maybe you need a change." She spoke, waving for the check.
"I am not getting a makeover.." I disagreed. I didn't need to impress him, I mean the kid was friends with me through out grade school and that was my worst.
"I'm not saying makeover, but what if, say you're father and I helped you move?" She looked at me, as we walked out the glass doors.
"Move? Like where Perth or Adelaide?"
"If you'd like, but you're father thought it would be a great idea for you to experience America. He can get connections and have a job at a company in New York or Los Angeles or maybe even Seattle. It would be lovely to go there!" She babbled, but I was in shock that they had been wanting me to go to America for business.
"Uh yeah I'll start packing then. I think I need that.." I said starting my car. She smiled and pecked her hand blowing me a kiss before trudging to her sports car.
I stopped to get some boxes and packed everything from kitchen essentials to clothes. Of course I left a couple things out to use and wear. I made sure to call and double check that my family and I were on the same page. I got to chose New York or LA. My family immediately rooted for LA because of its fame, so I chose New York. I went to work buying my ticket and arranging different things.
I just managed to move myself to another country in 24 hours. Or at least arrange the big move. I only had 2 days to prepare, and make sure I had everything for Leo.
Maybe a change was just what I needed?
