at nine, Juliette packed up her stuff and headed out to her car. while caught in the usual NYC traffic, she flicked on the radio, "She Looks So Perfect" blaring through the speakers.
"Of course. of all songs, this one?" she groaned. She arrived at her apartment building just as the song ended. she headed up to the third floor, stepping into her decently sized apartment. she dropped everything, and sat on her couch.
"what am i gonna do?" she sighed. she ran her hands through her mid length blondish hair, closing her blue eyes.
Everything was up in the air.
New York City. It was everything she had worked for. what 20 year old gets a full time position at vogue? She had a nice apartment, a great job(with even better money) and she was extremely successful. What more could she want?
But home..
Yes, she was born an American. But Australia was home. It always had been. But when she left, she vowed to never go back. it was to painful.
But she missed her family..
She missed Michael.
But was it worth giving up her dreams?
Her thoughts were interupted when the phone rang.
"Hello?"
"Hi sweetheart."
"Hi Mum. Shouldnt you be working right now?"
"No, I've got the day off. Guess who stopped by last night!"
"Who?" JUliette asked, even though she knew the answer.
"Michael! He's home for a few weeks and he stopped by to say hello!"
"I see."
"Such a sweetheart, that Michael. Jessa, Jill and Jack were so happy to see him, Jules. i wish you and Jay couldve been here to see him."
"Yeah..."
"Are you okay, Jules? You seem down.." Juliette could hear the concern in her mother's voice.
"Yeah Mum, I'm Fine. Just alot on my mind, s'all."
"Are you okay? Something happen at work?"
"No. Work was good today actually." Well, except for that one certain offer, but Juliette decided not to mention it.
"Thats good. How was London?"
"It was really amazing."
"Michael showed us some photos he took when he was there, oh Jules, its so beautiful!"
Juliette sighed "I know."
"Are you sure youre okay Juliette? It sure doesnt sound like you are."
"I'm fine, just thinking."
"About what?"
Juliette thought for a brief moment, contemplating what she was going to do. She didnt know what she wanted. But she did know what she needed.
"Juliette? Are you still there?"
"Yeah.."
Juliette turned, looking at the framed picture of her and Michael on her wall. it was the last picture they had taken together. and suddenly, everything hit her.
"Mum, Can I tell you something?"
"Of course Jules."
"I'm coming home."
