Kate's departure

Ana opened the apartment door and felt the loneliness, everything was dark, there was no sound or someone waiting for her when she arrived, she smiled bitterly remembering that the only person she could count on was far away.

She had finished college more than a month ago, and moved to Seattle with her best friend in an apartment in the Pike Market district. Kate Kavanagh had been her friend since the first year; Her father had rented a very cozy and safe apartment for her, but the most exciting thing was that they would still live together.

In the days before the end of class, Kate told her that she had gotten a 6-month internship in New York to specialize in journalism, and had been without her father's intervention, which made her very proud. Despite not wanting to leave Ana alone in a new city, it was an opportunity she could not refuse

FLASHBACK

-It's only six months, -Kate repeated as she packed a suitcase, and ordered some of the moving boxes that had arrived the day before, she must be in New York in five days.

"Kate ..." said Ana, sitting on a stool in the middle of the room half unpacked, "I'll be fine, do not worry, I'll be more at the office than at home and when I get here I'll be so busy unpacking that I will not have time of another thing

Kate sat on the bed frown, looking at her friend - and what will happen when you finish unpacking? - Ana shrugged her shoulders as if not giving importance to the comment and made a hand gesture as if discarding something. - I'll think of something, there are many places to see, I'll know how to entertain me - said this and continued to open the boxes in front

Kate sighed and tried to hide her concern for leaving Ana alone, they had been friends for four years and knew the girl perfectly, it take a lot for Ana to open up, but she had managed to tell her part of the story of her Life, and she knew that Was a young woman with many problems of self-esteem and although she was beautiful and very intelligent, could not get rid of that shyness and sadness that were already characteristic of her

The day of departure arrived and Kate felt divided on the inside, on the one hand I was very excited by the opportunity that this trip represented, but on the other, It felt very sad to leave Ana alone. Ana was very proud of her friend and although she was sad to be without Kate, she was not going to let her mood ruin her friend's trip

"Promise me that you will not spend the days locked in the apartment, that you will eat healthy and try to have fun and take good care of yourself ..." Ana rolled her eyes and replied wearily. "Yes, Mom, I promise to eat all my vegetables and brush my teeth before I go to bed" Kate stifled a laugh and hugged her friend very loudly, and whispered in her ear - I only care about you baby, I love you so much and I'm going to miss you a lot - Ana swallows the throat knot and with voice still and full of emotion She said - I'll miss you too, and I promise I'll take care of myself, but you also promise the same, I love you too Kate - they both released from the embrace and looked at each other affectionately, their eyes filled with tears, when They listened for the loudspeakers calling to board the flight, with a final handshake they said goodbye, not before promising that they would talk on the phone, whenever the time difference allowed, Ana saw her friend leave and turned in her footsteps And headed for his office to start the day
