    Vanessa had just left college, with her desired degree in literature. Her success in this subject showed that she was a bright girl at the youthful age of twenty-one, she valued her time at school as well as her social time at the weekends with her friends. She only had a couple of friends as she found it difficult to put trust in people; this was also the main reason why she'd only had a couple of boyfriends in the past few years. It was definitely not because she didn't get enough attention from boys, because she got a lot of that. Vanessa was 5'6", had dark brown doe eyes and long dark hair that fell to her hips in natural, soft waves. Her weight matched with her height perfectly to create a very desirable body mass index as well as a desirable figure. She never wore much make up, but her mother always told her that her face was beautiful the way it was. Vanessa lost her father when she was very young and so she had very little memory of him and therefore could not really share the same pain that her mother felt when they lost him. For her year without school or work, she had planned on bagpacking across Europe to get some time away from Boston. She was sick of the city and she wanted to explore new cultures and climates.

Ashley sounded upset as she spoke on the phone to Vanessa. "I'm so sorry, Nessa," Ashley began with a heavy sigh. "I can't go. My mom is really sick and my dad can't get any time of work, he's going to be in England for a month too. I need to stay with her during the day to make sure she's alright. I'm so so sorry." Vanessa looked down then took her cell off speaker and pressed it to her ear. She cut off her friend's apologies and started to speak: "It's okay, Ashley, I promise. I'll just go alone, I'm better on my own. You know what I'm like." Vanessa laughed genuinely. She secretly wanted to go on this trip by herself. To admire the beauties of each country in her own time rather than being rushed around shops and tourist attractions like she would if she had brought friends or family. "I promise you I'll be fine on my own, don't fret. Okay?" "Okay," Ashley replied, confirming that Nessa's pleads and reasoning had been sincere and convincing enough to reassure her friend. They chatted about what Nessa would do when she got there and what gifts she would bring back for Ashley and Emma. Vanessa looked at her watch and quickly gathered her ...
