Goodbyes always got to me.
There was never a goodbye that I didn't want to cry, and the majority of the time I allowed myself to. Mostly because I never got to say goodbye to my parents, or my bestfriend. It was always my fault, with Sam, my parents, and all my other friends from school.
But that time, I wasn't going to allow anything to get between me and my friends for the last time. I knew that it would be a long time before I could see my friends--my new family--and I knew it would be even longer before we could all be together at once. Knowing that, I was not going to let anyone get in between my friends and I before I could say goodbye, and I didn't. I didn't let them go without a goodbye.
I did let them slip through, though.
I let them leave.
And I didn't do much in the way of stopping them, and that was the problem.
I didn't stop them. I allowed them to go, with a goodbye. The next time, however, I didn't say goodbye. And none of us wanted, or needed, that to happen.
But it wasn't my fault, we had to leave--for me, and for my family.
