chapter 5

*ashley's pov*

<<time skip>>

we spent the rest of the flight awkwardly small talking or doing our own thing. we left the airport n me and josh are outside waiting for mum to finish her shift. i accepted ruel's follow request bc i finally could use my data again

<<>>

my mum took us to our house after a long taxi drive. it was the first time seeing our house n tbh it's really nice n more my style. it kinda has a beauty vibe with the main colour being white. its also two story and near marley beach which is meant to be beautiful.

<<>>

i'd spent around an hour unpacking all the boxes that had been shipped to the house a few days ago n my suitcase. we still had too wait till the morning for our furniture to be dropped off but we had our mattresses. i was minding my own business then suddenly heard my phone ding. it was weird bc it was 11pm n my friends at home would probably be at a party or something. i checked my phone to see:

its been a few hours since the flight n i really wanna text her. she accepted my follow request while i was in the uber on my way home from flight. so that kinda led me to believe she wanted to talk. but then again what if she doesn't wanna talk or is using me. come on ruel just freaken text her
