A couple days have gone by. I got my shipping information about my furniture, which excited me. So in a week I'll be receiving everything. Tomorrow is Monday, being the first day of school. Which means it'll be my first day of work. My phone starts ringing, so I jog over to it. I looked at the screen and it was Jacob, I answered. "Hey." He gives me a small smile, "Hey butterfly." I gave a small smile and asked him what he's been up to. He said not much just working a lot. We spoke about a few random things. Then about tomorrow, and how nerve racking it is. Then he surprised me with what he said next. "I'm coming Friday night to see you, I miss you." I had the biggest smile and was so happy to hear that.

"I can't wait to see you love." He gave a small smile and simply said, "Me too." He's been a bit awkward lately. I had brushed it off and ignored the feeling I had. "Well. I'm going to do a few things before bed. Good night. I'll talk to you tomorrow." I didn't show any emotion and said, "OK.. I love you." He hung up. With a tear sliding down my face I locked my phone. I went to the bathroom, washed my face, and headed to the kitchen for a sandwich with a bag of chips, since it was already 6:30pm it could be my dinner. After that, I got ready to call Paola before calling my parents. Paola didn't answer, she just sent a quick text. "Can't talk right now." I shook my head and texted back, "Ok, call me tomorrow after 4pm." No reply. I called my parents and spoke with them for a bit, before hanging up to go take a nice bath.

A good thirty minutes later I got out of the bathroom in just a towel. I head to my drawers and grab some underwear and a big t-shirt. I grab my laptop and phone and sit on the bed. I check my phone and notice I have a few texts from Yaz. "Hey... I have to talk to you." Then another, "It's kind of important in my opinion." Then the last one, "Text me back when you're free." I texted back, "Hey what's up? Everything ok?" I waited anxiously for a response, it's only 8:30pm and she usually isn't asleep yet. A few minutes later as I'm checking my emails, I get a text from Yaz. "Well, I don't really know. I think it's kind of weird, but maybe you'll see it differently." She wasn't making any sense. "About what Yaz?" I waited for a reply, forgetting about my emails. Ding... I opened her message so quickly, "Well, I went to the movies with this boy from school... And I saw Paola. She didn't see me though. I was going to go say hi but then I saw someone walk up to her and kiss her on the cheek. I froze and turned away so they didn't see me. But Leena... It was Jacob..." I dropped my phone. No. It isn't what she's thinking. It can't be. A kiss on the cheek isn't wrong, he's friends with her too. She's my best friend. I know she wouldn't do that. I grabbed my phone and sent her a text back. "Yaz, she's my best friend and he's my boyfriend. They're probably just both hanging out. Same way we all three hung out when I was back home." Yeah, that's it. They're just hanging out the same way we would have. She texted back, "Ok Leena... You know them best... I just wanted you to know what I saw. Love ya... Good night." I appreciate her but she has it all wrong... right...? "Love you too, thanks by the way. Good night." I put my phone down, my laptop away and just decided it was time to call it a night. Tomorrow is a big day and I need to be ready.
