I open my eyes quickly to notice everything is blury. Blinking a few times, my vision starts to get clear. I feel my cheeks cold. Moving my right hand, I slide my fingers over my cheek, and realize it's wet. I've been crying. Letting my hand fell to the side of my body, I keep staring at the celling. It was still dark, I could see the small shapes of light from the street lights. I could turn my head to the side to see the hours over my alarm clock, but I already knew the time. This was not the first time I woke up in the middle of the night and it wouldn't be the last. I close my eyes and let a small sigh escape my lips. This was starting to be an habit. A bad one. I needed to fix this otherwise...

My thoughts were interrupted as I hear my phone vibrating on the side bed table. Opening my eyes, I stretch my right hand to grab it, moving it to the front of my eyes. The bright light made my eyes blury for a second. I blink a few times and my vision adjusts the light. I read the ID caller.

Fuck.

I slide my tumb on the screen over the green button and bring the phone to my ear, as I hear a familiar voice. The voice of someone I've tried to ignore for a while now.

"Were you sleeping?"

Closing my eyes again, I move my hand over my forehead.

"No. What do you want Darren?"

I could hear the hesitation of his voice on the other side. This was not good.

"Well... I was out with some friends and I thought you may want to join us..."

I frown and turn my head to look at my alarm clock. It was 2h36 am. Wait a minute. That means I only slept for 1 hour and half. Great. Just great.

"Sophia?...Are you there?"

I hear his voice calling me and I sigh deeply.

"Yes I'm here Darren."

"So about the-"

"Sorry Darren, but I'm not in my party mood right now, I'm tired and need to get up early to go to the airport."

He breathes slowly and I could hear some music and voices laughing on the background.

"So you still going to move? I thought you may changed your mind so far, but I guess i was wrong. So that means it's realy over."

Here he goes again. At first I actually felt guilty for ending things between us. I felt a realy bad, then he kept insisting on working things out. Is not that I am against long relationships, but in this case it would be kinda of crazy. I was not simply changing cities, I was moving to another country. To my homeland.

"Listen Darren, we talked about this so many times already, I've told you this relantionship wouldn't work, we would endup stop talking and things would get weird. I realy want to keep talking to you with no hurt feelings. I realy want us to start a new as friends. Not like we used to be, but a new thing."

I wait for his answer, praying that this time it would be diferent. I could hear his breathing getting faster and then a long sigh.

"We talk tomorrow. Maybe you will change your mind. I lo-"

It wasn't.

"Bye Darren."

I turn off the call and let my hand fall on the bed, letting a fustration sigh escape my lungs. I close my eyes for a while and start thinking how everything endup like this, when I feel my cellphone vibraiting once again. I look to the ID. This was turning into a fustrating night. I answer.

"What?"

The voice from the other side chuckles.

"Why you sound a little fustrated dear. Let me guess, the love bird is still trying to convince you to stay?"

I let a small smirk grow on my lips. This asshole.

" No. He keeps insisting to continue the relantionship."

"Oh my, isn't that hilarious?"

I hear him laugh. Realy asshole.

"Why are you calling me Andrew? You know it's 2h40 am here don't you?"

He laughs again.

"Actually I believe it's 4 am now, since it's 12 am here"

I wide my eyes and look to the alarm clock. 4 am. Holy christ, how the?

"And by your silence I presume you are a bit confused."

This was realy a damn fustrating night. I sigh.

"I ask again, why are you calling?"

"Dear relax a bit will you. Stress and fustration make you skin look awfull, not talking about what it can do to your sistem."

Andrew laughs once again and I just roll my eyes.

"Either way, I'm calling to warn you I would not be able to got get you at the Airport. I have to go to say in the office for a emergency reunion."

"Oh? Do you know what this reunion is about?"

"The President called the entire sector, he didn't give any other information. We need to be stay there after working hours. It seemed serious."

Great. Now I didn't had someone to pick me up.

"So what will I do?"

"Oh don't worry dear, I took care of everything." I swear I could hear him smile. "I asked my cousin Jack, you remember him, Jack Stanley. From Sylvie christmas party. He was short, dark brown hair..."

"And was trying desperatly to get some girl to make out with him, yup I remember him alright. I thought you actually had a little bit consideration for me"

He laughs out load. I wonder where he was at the moment. He seemed way to relaxed to be laughing like this.

"Love, he won't try to bite you. He cleary said you were not his type, cleary that boy has some issues."

"Yes that makes me so much relaxed."

"Either way, he will pick you up at the airport, you will be arriving at 11 pm I believe?"

I look to my alarm clock now showing 4h05 am. That means I would only have hours of sleep. Just great.

"Yes, the flight is at 7 am. I will be reaching New York around noon, then change planes. The flight from New York to there will be more or less 6 hours, so ya, around 11 pm."

"Well that made me feel tired for a second, thank god is not me doing that long trip"

"Jeez you are such a lovely person sometimes"

"I know right? Now I will let you rest and don't worry. I took care of everything."
"That actually makes me even more worried"

"Who's the lovely person now?"

I smile slightly.

"Bye Andrew, see you in a few hours."

"Sleep well Sophie Dear, have a good trip. And for the record, I know you will love UK as much as I do."

"I actually agree with you on that. Bye."

"Bye, bye"

I turn off the call and look at the celling. I let a sigh escape my lips as I close my eyes. I knew I was making the right decision. I felt something deep inside saying I was wrong. I had a reason to leave UK, and i swore never returning there. But life changes and one day you wake up to see things are not perfect anymore, and you once again leave searching for a new begining. I may be a coward, due to the fact this was my second time I was changing places to start fresh. But that's me. I admit I'm scared to face the problems right now, like I was 18 years ago. I open my eyes to look once again to my alarm clock, now showing 5 am. This sucks. Well might as well try to have a quick nap.
