A quick update as promised.
Age 22
The happiness that was around us last year, is now tainted.
There's a lot of tension this year.
Not with us.
Not with Rose and Em.
With Alice and Jasper.
Their whole long distance relationship apparently became too difficult and blew up a few months ago.
Jasper didn't tell us.
Alice didn't tell us.
So we invited him.
He shows up like he said he would.
With a girl.
And she's not Alice.
Alice arrives last and Jasper's new "friend" opens the door.
She introduces herself as Maria, Jasper's girlfriend.
Alice's face is stone for the rest of the night.
You want to kick Jasper out or more preferably kick his ass.
But Alice says it's fine, she doesn't care what he does.
We all know that's a lie.
We go to a bar in town one night.
Alice stays as far away from Jasper and Maria as possible.
So far that after a while we lose sight of her.
Until Rose points her out.
She's in the corner…making out with a nameless guy.
They break apart and he says something in her ear, she nods and they start to head towards the door.
Jaspers up and out of his seat before we can even react to what's going on, but then we're qucikly following him.
"Where the hell do you think you're going Alice?" He seethes.
"Why do you care?" she spits back tugging at the stranger's hand to pull him out the door.
She offers one last statement, "Go back to your girlfriend Jasper."
We all turn to look at Maria who's completely unaware of the situation, ordering drinks at the bar.
By the time we've turned back around Alice and the guy are gone.
You and I are about to run after her when Jasper speaks up.
"Just let her go, she's a grown woman she can do whatever she wants."
Jaspers right, we can't control Alice.
He walks about towards Rose and Em, beckoning us to follow.
So reluctantly… we do.
Alright, don't give up on me now. That's probably the most drama that's going to happen in this story. It will all work out in the end, have some faith.
Thank you so much for reading.
