“Lexi, Alexa” I heard his voice calling me. The pace of my walk fastened as I headed towards the airport security. I couldn’t face him, not now. Not ever. “Alexa Sahyounie, would you just fucking listen to me” I froze in my tracks and violently turned. “What shit are you going to try and feed me now? Do you actually think I’d believe any bullshit that escapes your lips?” Tears dripped down my flushed face as I aggressively smacked my fist against his shoulder in frustration. My brother Daniel rushed over and pulled me away, engulfing me in a tight, comforting hug. Daniel didn’t know what had actually happened between us; he just thought it was a 'bad breakup'. I wish that was the case. “Look man, I think you should go” Daniel spoke softly to his friend who I currently wanted to spit on. “I’m not going anywhere, Skip- and I’m not going to feed you any bullshit, Alexa. I love you” I snickered through my tears. “No you don’t, you never did, did you?” His face drained of colour and his eyes fell sadly to the shiny tiled floor. I shook my head and walked away to where my Mum, Dad and brother stood. “Alexa, listen to me. I love you now” My Dad held me in his arms to shield me from him. I pushed his protective arms away and retaliated. “So you didn’t then, when it mattered? Well that makes it better doesn’t it” I spat. I turned my back and continued to say my goodbye’s to my family. “I really did love you” I spoke to him gently as I wiped a falling tear. I shook it off and boarded the plane, beginning my journey to England and leaving my life in Melbourne behind. ~ Alexa Sahyounie was your regular 17 year old girl, she had crushes, had a good family life, an annoying older brother who she secretly loved more than life itself and the best friends you could ever wish for. But, nothing lasts forever, does it?
