Taylor's POV

I stopped writing my report as I look up to see my friend, Alicia standing beside me.

"Um, may I help you?" I ask her as I start to pack up.

"Come on Taylor, we're here because we're concerned about you," Alicia says grabbing my hand, "It's been a consistent schedule with you, working from five AM, till three AM, it isn't healthy for you."

"Look, production is important, and I want to make Kayleigh-"

"Taylor, take a break you're going to be out for two weeks," Kayleigh says giving me a folder, "But while you're gone, work on this for me."

"Miss, this is-"

"Taylor, listen, even if you do want to work over time, I don't like how it's been going," She says, "You've been writing some weird things in your reports lately."

I look in the folder at my recent report;

This documentary is coming along well even though my boyfriend abandoned me for some whore who I will never fleepington's Sunday Sabbath school get over! Hellllllppppp.. But yeah like I was saying, project, is running smoothly, facts accuracy is a solid ninety-seven percent, and the film is good quality. HD.

"Oh... I..." I bit my lip and straightened my glasses.

"Please," She says, "Can't believe I'm saying this either, but take some breaks, you need it."

I sigh and pack up my bag and shake Kayleigh's hand before leaving the building with Alicia.

I opened the cold metal door to her car as the subtle winds of England came rushing through. I sat in the car with my arms crossed, not angry, but just... Lonely and sad...

"Alicia," I say, "Am I depressed?"

"Hm?" She says, "Well, I guess, I mean... You've had constant sadness since the... You know..."

"I guess... I miss Alex... He made me feel good... For the nine months we were together..." I say tearing up.

"Taylor, stop," She says pulling into her driveway, "He cheated on you, and that's that. You can't just forgive a cheater for anything they've done, even if they try to apologize."

"He was my everything," I say releasing tears.

She opens up the door for me and holds onto my hand when she stands up to the door and starts unlocking the door, "Remember? This is our house."

I giggle and shake my head at her.

Alicia and I have been roommates before we even moved to England from America, back in high school when our parents kicked us out of the house. Then college in England. We're now living in a two-story house on the outskirts, and we're even in the same job. It's insane how far our friendship had dragged us along.

It's insane to think, two middle school students would still be friends to this exact day. We were friends since middle school if you haven't caught onto that yet by the way.

As we unlock the door, she holds it open for me and I saw something that made me smile;

She had a cake with purple icing (my favorite color) saying, 'Welcome back Tay-Tay', and purple balloons saying welcome home. Lastly, my favorite; A whole box filled with bottled coffee.

"That Alicia..." I say popping open a bottle, "I needed this."

"Well, actually, I got one more thing," She says handing me my favorite black crop top and shorts, "Get changed, we're going to your favorite club, you know, the first one we went to when we moved here."
