N.Z ~ (Cindy's POV)
"Cindy, we'll move to another country."
I can't believe what my mom just said. I'll move to another country?
"Is it... For real?," I ask. "But why?"
"You know... I work for the government and I must go to Tark to finish my work there. It's a very important job, Cindy. I hope you understand...," my father tried to explain, but I can't accept even an inch of what he said.
"No! No way I can understand!"
"You MUST understand, Cindy Laurent! We'll move in 3 days and you MUST prepare yourself for it!," my mom shouted.
"WHAT?! 3 DAYS?! We'll move in 3 days and you told me just now?!" I'm shock. It's a very short time! I haven't told any of my friends about it, I haven't prepared anything, and mostly... How about my relationship with Jonathan? Will it end just because of this... this very unpredictable thing?
"Yes, 3 days. Now finish your dinner and go to bed."
"Nah! I'm done!"
There are still many food left on my plate but I don't care. I don't feel like eating now. I just want to sleep and when I wake up, I know that this is all just a dream. I ran upstairs and locked myself on my bedroom.
9.30 PM, I know that Jonathan still awake at this moment. I take my mobile phone, lie on my bed, and send him a short message.
Jonathan, are u still awake? Can we talk? :(
Just a minute after, I receive a phone call. It's Jonathan. I quickly press the green button and I hear Jonathan's voice from the phone.
"Jonathan?"
"Cindy? What happened to you?"
Suddenly, I felt large tears dropping from my eyes to my cheeks. I can hold it no more. This feels really bad. I don't want to go overseas. I want to stay! I don't want to say goodbye to my friends and Jonathan. I need them.
"Cindy? You're crying?," Jonathan ask again.
"I... Will move to Tark in 3 days."
Silence... Jonathan doesn't say anything. I keep on crying. Finally, Jonathan reply,
"You're not lying, aren't you? Cindy... Is this real? You'll move to Tark?"
"Yes."
"Today is Friday, so you'll move in Monday?"
"Yes," again, my answer is still the same. I don't know what to say. I'm too shock.
"Just... Calm down, okay? Is there anything I can do for you?"
"Will our relationship end?," I ask.
"Why are you questioning that? Of course not." Jonathan's answer makes me feel better. At least I know that he won't leave me. "I must work on Saturday and Sunday, but I think I can meet you at the airport on Monday."
I'm surprised. "Won't you go to school?"
"I'll say that I wake up late."
His answer really makes me laugh. He's that type of person, someone who will do anything that his heart tells him to do.
"You must sleep now, Cindy Laurent. Press the red button and go to sleep."
"Hahaha... Okay, okay. Good night. Thanks for making me feel better."
"No problem. See you on Monday."
"See you."
I ended the call and put my phone on my desk, far from my bed. Mobile phones' radiation is very bad for people and I don't want to take a risk.
I pull my blanket up and sleep. I hope, tomorrow, a miracle will happen.
