EVASION
ESTRANGE FIANCEE
Jennie almost packed everything she needed to live with Lisa for a year. It was all in all, 2 big boxes and one travelling bag. It was composed mainly of clothes, books and papers for work and her laptop which was her life because it contained mostly of her files and projects. She was sluggish while packing because it meant she would leave her apartment for 5 years now. She loved this apartment. It had memories, good and bad but still she loved this hollow space. It gave her the familiar feeling of home whenever she had a bad day or a stressful one. Anyway, she would just be away for a year and would always come back here anytime. She wouldn't give this up so easily. This was her home, her lair.

"I know, it's hard but let me help you. Running away isn't the answer, Jennie.", Rose said tenderly. She extended her hand to cup Jennie's face but was repellled at the last second.
"P-please n-no. Just d-dont.", Jennie was teary eyed and distanced herself from Rose. She almost cried in front of her again. She continued what she was doing, carrying her things to her car.
Rose was just there standing beside her car and watching every move of Jennie. She knew how much damage she had done to this fragile friend of her. After heavy sighs, she surrendered. Rose will give her more time to think and heal. She knew it's hard for Jennie to move on now that she has no one to lean on. She wanted to be at her side but Jennie didn't want to.
