Its been 3 days It's now Thursday 4th September

We are now at lunch I couldn't focus all day the only thing running through my mind is Florida and my dad. He left when I was 8 I'm now 13 I've spoken to him over the phone like twice and he's now desperate for me to come see him oh and I found out they have a kid a daughter to be exact I have a little sister that I didn't even know about. She's now 4 and my dad said she looks like me when I was little that put me off a bit why did we stay for her but not for me? Was I not good another? "C" Jordan shouted "hmm" I was completely out of my head now "what you thinking about?" "I think I might go to Florida" "wait for real?" "Ye I've been thinking and I think I should go" "how will we talk?" "I don't think of that" I said in a disappointed tone I didn't want to leave my best friend for what like 6 months. The most amount of time me and j have spent without each other is like 2 days when he went camping with his dad about a year ago .

The bell went lunch is over I have yeah yeah in this period so we walked together. "I heard about Florida my dad has work up there in like 2 weeks and he asked if I wanted to go" "really? Are you going?" "I wasn't going to but if you are I guess we can hang out you did say he lived in Orlando right?" "Ye he has a beach house up there" "so are you going?" "Ye I think Iam" I'm going to Florida I made my decision it's not like me and j are going to go are separate ways or anything when I get back right?

It's now time to go home me and j are walking down the street I haven't told him about going yet but I guess I should now "umm hey j yeno the whole dad situation" "yeah what about it" "I'm going to go" "really?" He sounds heart broken "ye but that's ok right? It's not like anything is going to change you are still going to be my best friend no matter what" "yeah of course we just have never been with out each other that long" "I get it but it's all good we will call every night and text all the time" "ok yeah that sounds good so when do you leave?" "Probably tomorrow so could you help me pack?" "100%" he smiled at me I'm going to miss that Jordan Philips smile.

We are now packing I broke the news to my mom we cried a little and got over it (well I did not so her tho) "can I take one of your jerseys with me?" I asked j "take as many as you want" I smiled at him and packed 2 and maybe one of his hats. I felt sad that I had to part from him but it will be ok I guess and yeah yeahs going to be with me so it's fine. We blasted music and danced the majority of the time. It's now 9:56 me and j are laying side by side on my bed "I'm gonna miss you you know that right" he spoke up "I'm going to miss you to j but it's only till March right? Then we will be back to normal" "yep besides I bet a long amazing brake away from you" "oh really is that how you feel" we laughed. We watched a movie and talked he got tired and eventually fell asleep I look over to him I couldn't help but feel lost knowing I'm leaving him.

Friday 5th September

7:45 my alarm went off I woke up on Jordan's chest I didn't move mostly because I don't want to leave him his eyes begin to open and I feel his arms close around me. "Do you have to go" he cry's "unfortunately I already said I'm going" "ughhhh" we laughed it of and both got ready for the day but instead he's going to school and I'm going to the airport. I don't want to leave him or my ma I didn't even want to leave the sandlot boys. 8:00am j has to go. I started to cry he gives me the biggest hug ever and we held it for like 5 minutes "are you crying?" I asked him "no I have something in my eye" I laugh at him knowing that I'm not going to see my best friend face to face for the next 6 months "this is really happening" he says "yep I guess it is you going to miss me?" "What kind of question is that? No as if I would miss you loser" "oh shut up idiot" he kisses you forehead "I'll make a exception this time" I giggle "I'm going to miss the giggle" "that was just a whole new level of cringe" I mentioned "what I really I'm going to miss you clementine-Kate Carter" "j I'm leaving for 6 months I'm not dying" "Ino Ino well I gotta go" "yeah guess this goodbye for now" "text and call every night" "you got it" I smile at him "tell me when you land" "I will" "i love you c" "I love you more j"

We said are good byes and I did to my ma to I had to keep mine and moms short tho or she would start to cry. I'm now In the airport waiting for my dad to pick me up I sat in a seat scrolling through pictures of me and j also the sandlot boys and some with mom. "CLEMENTINE" I heard a man shout I turn to my left and there was my dad with open arms what did I do? Do I hug him? I guess I do .
