บท 84: All over

Amelia Forbes

"I got in."

Dani walked into my room beaming, a white envelope in hand.

And although I knew what she held-a college acceptance letter, I asked, "Into what?"

She rolled her eyes at me and laughed. "Bloustone College?"

"Oh," I finally managed to mutter after a while.

Dani stared at me in disbelief. "Really? That's all you're gonna say? I've been working my ass off for this and that's all you're gonna say?"

She was right. I did sound kind of selfish.

"I'm sorry, Dani. I didn't mean it like that," I pleaded. "Of course I'm happy for you. It just.. it took me by surprise, that's all. You know how hard I've been rooting for you."

She gave me a small smile and wrapped her arms on my shoulder. "It's okay, Ammie. I'll miss you too."

My throat tightened.

I was going to miss her. Even more than she thought. She was one of my best friends. She'd been there for me when no one else had. She'd practically forced her way into my life.
