(JOY)
Two months later…
“WHY DO you have to leave me?” I whined. Even to my ears I sound pleading and pathetic.
Bella laughed at me as she continued to put her things inside a huge box. Those are her possessions that didn’t fit in her three giant luggage. “Before you came here in Paris, you said you’ve been living alone for years. You can handle living without a roommate. Besides, your father and Adriana are just near you.”
“Still, I will miss you.”
She smiled at me. “I know. I will miss you too, Joy.”
Bella continued to pack her things. I stayed sitting at the side of my bed, watching her. “I couldn’t believe you will fly to the United States to start anew. But I am happy because this is an opportunity you’ve been waiting for.”
