Chapter 11

They ended up eating dinner at a Greek restaurant owned by a couple whose son Perrie had met while she climbed the Great Wall of China. Perrie spent the dinner talking about the couple’s son and their adventures trying to communicate with each other and the Chinese locals. In the end, the Croatian Perrie had picked up had come in very much in handy, as the young man was fluent in the language. Unfortunately, neither of them were terribly good at Mandarin, resulting in some interesting meals made of food Perrie would rather not think about.
Jade laughed at each funny part in Perrie’s story and spoke about how different it was whenever she travelled abroad. She almost exclusively travelled for tours and films, when she was surrounded by an entourage and didn’t have the opportunity to travel on her own.
Perrie promised Jade that she would take her on a real adventure one day.
The night ended with a lingering hug before a car came to pick up Jade and Perrie decided to take in the fresh air and walk home. She’d luckily organized for a dog walker to take out the dogs earlier, so she had no reason not to enjoy the walk home.
Hours later, Perrie smiled as she sat in bed checking up on social media. Specific tweets had caught her eye. They were the first non-career related tweets that Amelia had published in nearly five years.
@AmeliaThirlwall: Thank you all for the birthday wishes!
@AmeliaThirlwall: Best birthday I’ve had in a while. Thank you friend for letting me explore the results of the Big Bang with you.
