Sixteen

Billie:

Sat in a cafe on the phone to Amelia while stirring the tea until it swirled in the centre, the innocent conversation turning into something worrying as she drops the question.

"Billie I don't mean to scare you but what will you do when San moves on."

"What do you mean she's happy?"

"She might be now but she's still young."

"It's silly y'know we love each other."

"Then you'll be ok."

Hanging up thinking about what had just been said; grabbing my jacket and heading home. Opening the front door to see San sitting on the floor surrounded by leaflets and brochures "Planning anything nice?"

"I'm thinking about going to uni in the new semester."

My face falling as an "Oh," Slipped from my mouth.

"What's the matter?"

Taking a breath before smiling "Nothing, let's pick you a good one."

Crouching beside her, spending the night making plans and comparing courses. The night ending with laid sleeping on my lap as I sat awake, is she really moving on? Am I just being stupid like before.

I should relax, if I think about it I did take her away from home, away from he old life the least I could do was let her find her own way.
