"Blair it's been years you need to come home at least once. You can't avoid it forever", my sister Tanya for the millionth time in 6 years says to me.
"You know I can't. I'm too busy. Besides I have no one waiting there, isn't it? You and I meet up once a year when you tag along with Nate on his business trips to London." I try to reason with her.
"Listen I know that what he did to you was soul crushing but.. " before Tanya could complete. " don't even go there please. He has nothing to do with it. Well majorly he does but not the sole reason. Anyway gotta go. Talk to you soon. Bye.!" I hang up very quickly before bursting into tears.
Will Blair return to her hometown where she lost everything? Will he still be the jerk he was when she left or everything's changed because of her leaving?
