This will be the last part for a while. Thank you for reading!
When I got home, Sophie was waiting on our dining room table. ‘We need to talk,’ she said.
‘What’s up? Everything ok?’
She went on to tell me about the job in Australia, how she didn’t tell me because she never thought she’d get it in a million years, how she’ll miss me but wants to split as she knows long distance would never work. We gave each other a massive hug before talking about logistics. One thing that Sophie loved was being organised. The plan was she would be gone in a month when our rent would stop. However, the following day her new company asked if there was any way, she could fly out the following week. She really wanted this so agreed. She offered to pay for the last few weeks of rent but I declined, she needed the money after all.
Both me and Amy drove Sophie to the airport. We each have her a big hug and the girls had lots of tears before she disappeared into the terminal.
‘Now what? Amy asked.
‘Definitely food, I’m starving’
