Wait… Did I Sign Up for This Drama?!
⁰¹
Is it ever easy to leave behind your loved ones?
To say goodbye to the friends who felt like home?
To walk away from streets that hold all your memories?
Because for me… it isn’t.
They call it a new beginning.
But beginnings mean endings too, don’t they?
mom
You’ll make new friends. You’ll see.
Ariana
....But what if I don’t fit in?....
mom
Sometimes, the places we fear the most… show us who we really are
As I stared out of the window, the old city blurred into distance
And maybe, just maybe… she was right
Maybe this new start wouldn’t break me
Maybe it would finally show me who I was meant to be....

Ariana and her parents just reached her uncle & aunt’s house.
Everyone is greeting each other
Uncle
Oh, finally you’re here! We’ve been waiting.
Aunt
Come in, come in. Ariana, you’ve grown so much
mom
Thank you for letting her stay here. Please take care of her.
Aunt
Don’t worry, she’s like our daughter now.
They all walk inside. Aunt shows Ariana her room
Aunt
This will be your room. It’s small but cozy
Ariana
*smiles weakly* Thank you, it’s really nice.
Aunt
Your have some rest and unpack your stuff, then I will call you for lunch.
Later, Ariana is unpacking her suitcase. Her phone rings. Caller ID: Noel 💌
Ariana
* looking at her phone* ( should I pick up?)
phone ring for sometime and than silent
phone start ringing again
Ariana
*hesitantly pick up* hello...?
Noel
SERIOUSLY ARIA!? * yelling *
Noel
TELL ME YOU ARE JUST MESSING WITH ME!
Ariana
Noel, I— I didn’t know how to say it.
Noel
So you actually left?! And I had to hear it from Luna!? * angry*
Noel
I’m your best friend, Ariana! Was it that hard to tell me yourself?!
Ariana
*voice shaking* Noel, please… I didn’t mean to hide it.
Noel
*snapping* Oh really? Then why was Luna the one crying on call with me last night while I sat there feeling like a fool? Do I even matter to you?!
Ariana
*tears falling* You matter the most! Furthermore, I just… I couldn’t say it. I thought if I told you, I’d break down and—
Noel
*interrupts, crying* And now you’ve broken me instead! Do you know how stupid I felt knowing everyone else knew but me?
Ariana
*Sobbing* I’m sorry, Noel. I was selfish. I was scared you’d hate me…
Noel
*voice cracking* hate you? You idiot. You’re my person. I’m just… so angry, because I feel like I lost you without warning.
Ariana
You’ll never lose me. I swear. No distance can change that
Noel
*sniffling, softer* Then promise me. No more secrets. Nothing. Ever
Ariana
I promise. Even if it hurts, I’ll tell you everything.
Both crying. The line goes quiet except for their breaths
Noel
… You’re still the stupidest best friend in the world.
Ariana
*half-laugh, half-sob* And you’re still the loudest.
Noel
Damn right. Now cry all you want, but don’t you dare forget — I’m stuck with you forever
Ariana
I’ll never leave you guys in my heart. Distance won’t change that.
Noel
You better call me every day
Ariana
*Smiles through tears* Annoyingly every single day

⁰³
mom
*knocks softly* Ari, sweetheart… still crying?
Ariana
*sniffling* I’m fine, Mom… just tired.
dad
* walks in, pats her head* We know you, Ari. You’re not fine.
Aunt
Oh dear, don’t cry so much. It hurts us to see you like this
Ariana
I… I just don’t want to be away from my friends
Uncle
Friends? You’ll make new ones here, trust me.
mom
Exactly, sweetheart. Friends come and go, but family stays
dad
You’ll see… soon you’ll laugh with new people, and forget all this pain
Ariana
*shaking her head* No… you don’t understand.
mom
Honey, every time you move forward, you meet better people. That’s life.
Aunt
Don’t cry over distance. New friends will come, and you’ll realize it’s not so bad.
Ariana
*voice breaking* But they’re different… they’re not just friends…
dad
Ari, listen. Friends change, time changes. Don’t hold on too tightly.
Ariana
*low, almost whispering* You’ll never get it…
Her parents hug her, trying to calm her. She forces a smile for them but deep inside, her heart aches.
They said I’ll make new friends… that friends change. But Noel and Luna aren’t just “friends.” They’re a part of me. Distance can’t break us, time can’t replace them. No matter how many people I meet, no matter how much my family believes otherwise… these two will always stay with me. Always.
