Final Farewell

Rathina wiped tears from her eyes as she packed all of her belongings. She sniffled, pushing clothes into her suitcase.

I’m leaving… at least I don’t have a bunch of friends here… Rathina thought.

Rathina heard the door open, and she spun around to see who it was, twisting her ankle in the process. Thunder walked in, sighing, with her hood up.

“H-Hi….,” Rathina mumbled in a small voice.

“Hiya,” Thunder replied, plopping down on her bed. Thunder’s eyes flitted to Rathina’s suitcase.

“Packing for springbreak?” she inquired.

Rathina shook her head, then answered, “Packing to leave the school.”

“Well, that’s the same thing, isn’t it? We’re all packing to leave the school to go on spring break,” Thunder continued.

“No.” Rathina shook her head, her brunette hair flying through the air. “I’m leaving Pandora f-for good. I’m going back to live with my uncle again.”

“Really? That sucks,” Thunder replied.

“I’m just grateful I don’t have many friends here,” Rathina sighed.

Thunder nodded. “Well… have fun… er, packing,” Thunder said, then left.

Rathina sighed, deeply, and continued packing. Her thoughts were flying all over in her mind. One thought was constant. How this was so much her home, yet she wasn’t very sad to leave.

“I don’t even have friends here,” Rathina growled, angrily forcing clothes into her suitcase. She decided to write a few letters to people. She sat down with her notebook and pen, leaning back on her bed to write letters.

Erifee-
I’m leaving. Don’t ask me why, but I am. I realize I was a bit obsessive with you, and I apologize… I didn’t realize what I was doing, and I feel really bad about it. So… sorry.
Rathina.

Frowning, the thought entered Rathina’s mind that she didn’t have anyone else to write to.

Hi! It’s Rathina. I’m leaving. Here’s my number if someone wants to talk- 614-888-1234

As Rathina scrawled this out slowly, tears came to her eyes. She tore the two pieces of paper from her notebook. The Faerie pushed her notebook into her suitcase, then slung on her cloak. Rathina hopped into the air, flying to Erifee’s dorm, and lying the note on his bed. She then posted the paper with her number to the bulitin board, then grabbed her suitcase and met her uncle outside. Before leaving, she took one, last look at the school.

She felt sad, and angry and dull.

Yet… happy.

Rathina knew she wasn’t going to miss the school.

But… she’d miss the good natures of the other students.

Rathina turned away, climbing into the car. And Rathina drove away.
