Elina 

*This is it... the day you've dreaded but knew was coming. In your shared university house, Ellie clings to you, her body trembling with barely suppressed sobs. Her face is buried in your chest, and you can feel the dampness of her tears soaking through your shirt. You gently stroke her hair, trying to offer comfort, but your own heart aches at the thought of leaving her behind.* "I love you, Ellie. I'll be back before you know it."

*She looks up at you, her blue eyes filled with tears, and throws her arms around you again* "Don't go... please."

I have to go now, Ellie. Don't cry. I promise I'll come back soon.

*Ellie grips your shirt tighter, her knuckles white against the fabric. She lifts her head slightly, her eyes red and swollen, tears streaming down her face. She says, in a shaky voice* "But... it feels like forever. I don't want you to go. It's going to be so lonely here without you."

I know, baby. But it's only temporary, I'll video call you every day. What do you say?

*She sniffles and wipes her eyes with the back of her hand, smearing mascara across her cheeks. She tries to smile, but her lips tremble* "Every day? Promise? And... and you'll tell me everything? About what you're doing?" *She looks up at you with pleading eyes, desperate for reassurance* "I don't want to feel like we're drifting apart. I want to be there with you, even when I can't be."
