The Hardest Thing

Finally back home I thought as I stepped through the door it was the holidays now and
I just came back from university
“Hey your home” my mum said coming out of the kitchen and drying her hands on a T towel.
“Yeah a whole 8 weeks off” I said smiling I missed being at home and I missed my best
friendshe goes to a different university to me and its not like its close there
300 miles apart so I treasure the holidays she has the same breaks as me and
instead of being 300 miles away from me she’s only about a 5 minute walk away
“is back by-the-way” my mum told me knowing I wanted to go and see her
“When did she get back?” I asked her
“Two days ago” she replied
“Oh ok well I’ll go unpack everything and see her after we’ve had dinner” I said
to my mum and hugged her
“Ok dinner will be ready in about an hour” she said as I broke away and picked up
my suit cases I walked upstairs to my room and unpacked them into the correct
drawers and putting what needed washing in the wash basket.
“dinner” my mum called up the stairs to me I opened my door and ran down the
stairs and into the kitchen
“” I said hugging her as she stood in the kitchen she hugged me back
“I missed you” she said as I released her
“I missed you to you staying for dinner” I replied
“That was the plan all along” my mum said smiling
“You two set this up then?” I asked and they nodded
“Sneaky” I said with a smile as I sat down at the table with my dinner
“So how is uni going for you?” I asked
“Oh it was great but I’ve finished now though but I’ve got a work placement” she said
“Oh really where?” I asked her
“The best place ever” she replied smiling widely
“Where?” I asked her again
“Clothes store” she said and I rolled my eyes
“Don’t roll your eyes at me its not just any clothes store it’s Dolce & Gabbana” she replied
“Oh wow that’s good babe” I said with a bit of a mouthful
“don’t talk with your mouthful” my mum said
“Sorry” I replied
“So when do you start working there?” I asked her
“In a few weeks” she said drinking some water
“So how’s uni going for you?” she asked me
“It’s alright learning about music and stuff I’m enjoying it but it gets lonely
up there” I said
“Yeah I know what you mean” she said as my mum collected the plates up to wash
them we went up to my room still talking
“I don’t feel as lonely up there when I wear this though” she said pulling the locket
out from under her clothes the locket I gave her with a picture of herself and me in
with best friends inscribed on the front
“Yeah same here when I wear this watch everyday” I replied it was the watch she’d
given me when we were going our separate ways to learn different things she smiled
“But this time I’ll be alone down here” she said with a little sigh as she led
back on my bed
“You know you’re never alone” I said sitting next to her
“I know that as long as I wear this but it not the same as having you
there” she said
“I know its not” I replied stroking some hair out of her face
“Want to watch a film?” I asked her
“Yeah sure” she said as I got up and went over to my TV and DVD player putting a DVD
in I pressed play and turned the light off before sitting back down on my bed I lent
back against the wall andput her head in my lap as we watched the film together
like old times exactly like the old times I thought as
fell asleep in my lap I
carefully got up and put a pillow in place of where her head was led on my lap I turned
everything off clicking on my table lamp as I searched for a blanket I found one and
covered us both with it as I led next to her…
