Find Me In Rome

Chapter two: live a little

I made sure to dress up for dinner cause I'm someone that always has to look presentable wherever I'm going.

I wore my nice h&m baggy jeans which hugged my curves in all the right places and a nice crop top that says *play girl 👑* which stops directly where my jeans starts.

I put on my black pumps cause I'm a heels girly and my black channel purse my mom got me for my birthday last year.

I got to SOHO restaurant at exactly 8:00 and I spotted Molly almost immediately, I mean I don't know any other person that has such curly and long hair.

I sneakily creeped behind her and blew air into her ear.

"Bitchhhhhhhh. I'm gonna kill you" she said as she moved away from me. She hates when I do that so much but I would never stop cause her facial expression always makes me laugh like a crazy person.

I sat down clutching my stomach in pain from laughing that hard.

" Are you done now" Molly said rolling her eyes at me for the second time.

I held her hands and apologised to her so she'll stop sulking and just like that she was smiling at me again, it works Everytime and I don't think she can be mad at me for long.

" how are you my queen" I called her our favourite endearment

"I'm good, but I've missed you so much my queen. How are you holding up? " she asked, I smiled at her and gave her a reassuring smile.

With Molly I can't lie, she'll catch me immediately. We've been friends since we were 6 so we're basically sisters.

" I miss her Mo, I really do. I can't even go to work anymore cause I just want to be at home all day and cry my eyes out. Although it has been a year I still feel the pain as if it was yesterday. Her birthday is coming up you know, how am supposed to be on that day? What am I meant to do with her gone? How will I console my parents....... Uhhhhhhhhg my parents don't even get me started on them. I hate the fact that they are acting like nothing happened but I hear my mom crying to my dad every night. And suddenly they want to be with me all the time. I just feel so choked up Molly."

I let out a long breath as I finished ranting my feelings to my human diary.

Molly stood up from her seat and dragged me into a big warm hug. Molly's hugs are the best and her back rubs manage to ease all my stress.

After our long hug we sat took our seats and placed our order through the bar code scanner on out table.

Molly took a big sip of wine before she started speaking.

" I think I know what you should do." she said biting her lip and Molly only does that when she's nervous.

" spill then" I urged, curious to hear what she has come up with.

" I think you should go on a trip. There's this wellness center I heard about and it really has good reviews. I feel you need somewhere away from all the grief and just to have a fresh start for a while." Molly said in one breath. Now I was really interested in what she was saying.

"so where is this place? " I asked completely curious now.

"ROME"........

"WHATTTTTTTT" I almost spat out the wine in my mouth. " Molly that's a whole continent away. I know I have issues but that's a bit too far don't you think" I told her still surprised by her suggestion

"it will be good for you trust me and the good thing is that after sometime I will come over for my new project so we can be together for sometime then come back when we're ready. Just think about it Meg." she drank more wine and rubbed my hand a little.

" okay I will think about it " Molly beamed with joy and let out a small scream of excitement.

After our dinner we paid the bill and went home.

The drive home was filled with thoughts about what Molly suggested. She had a good point with the fresh start thing but Rome is a bit far. My Job will obviously not be affected cause I work remotely but how can I leave my parents for that long.

When I finally got home, I decided to get some rest and stop thinking so much. I'll figure it out by tomorrow
