You put you're key into the lock of your apartment door and turned the knob. You walked inside to see your girlfriend, Rose, studying at the dining table. She looked up when she heard you come in.
"Hello, Kanaya. How was your day?" she asked.
You walked over to give her a quick kiss and sat down next to her. "It was alright. How was yours?"
"Fine. By the way you got a letter in the mail," she pointed to the counter with a few envelopes on it and turned her head back to her notebooks.
You picked up the top envelope with you're name on it. The return address was Christian Lacroix.
You're eyes nearly bulged out of your head. But they didn't because that would be ridiculous. But it was Christian Lacroix! You. Got. A. Letter. From. Christian. Lacroix! He was only the top French fashion designer! And you got a letter from him!
You almost tore the envelope in half in your haste to open it. It read:
Dear Miss Kanaya Maryam:
You have been selected to be part of a summer intern program for the French designer, Christian Lacroix.
The letter slipped out of your hand.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" You screamed out of pure happiness. You were going to work for Christian Lacroix!
You noticed Rose glance at you, obviously startled. You grabbed her hands and pulled her out of her seat, spinning her around. "What? What did the letter say?" she said through her giggles.
"Christian Lacroix wants me to be a part of his summer intern program!" you practically shouted.
"That's great!" she smiled and gave you a hug. "But, who's he?"
"He is the top fashion designer in France." you answered gleefully. But then you noticed her face drop.
"So... you'd be spending the summer in France?"
You realized why she didn't look happy anymore. If you went to France for the summer, that meant you would be leaving her. You stopped smiling as well.
"Yes." You thought for a moment. "Maybe I don't have to go."
"No! You have to. This is your dream."
You turned away and picked up the letter again. "It says if I am going I have to notify them by Saturday. I will leave June third."
"That's in two weeks."
"So we will just have to make every day until then count." You looked back up at her as she wrapped her arms around your neck and kissed you passionately.
Two weeks later you were at the airport. You were standing with Rose as you waited for your flight to be called.
"I'm gonna miss you so much," Rose told you.
"Me too." You gave her a long, slow kiss until your flight was called.
"I have to go now."
"I'll see you when you get back. I love you, Kanaya."
"I love you too, Rose." You gave her one last kiss before you walked away. Hopefully that would hold you both for the next three months.
You handed the flight attendant your ticket and walked on board the plane. As you sat down you heard Rose's words echoing through your head.
"I'll see you when you get back."
