Goodbye

Ping.. My mobile phone lit up with a message from Pn. Monica. It said: 'Thank you for being my friend for all these years. Goodbye.' I felt cold all of a sudden. I opened my Message App and typed back: 'Pansy? What's going on?' 

I waited.

And waited.

There was no reply.

I typed 'PANSY???' and looked at the top of the screen.

Oh my Sherlock

She's offline

Afraid something was wrong, I dashed out of the house, into the cold atmosphere of Snowdin. 

Pansy, what are you doing?

What's are you trying to do?

I tried to ring her up, but she didn't even pick up the phone. In my haste I accidentally dialled Ink's number and the moment I heard a 'Hello?' from the other side, I started to shout.

"PANSY?? ARE YOU ALRIGHT???" 

[Pansy? Who's Pansy? This is Ink Comyet, miss!]

I stopped in my tracks. 

Oh my Sherlock...

How am I supposed to get to Pansy now???

I felt as if my whole body was being beaten up. 

"I...Ink..." I managed to whimper before squatting on the floor.

[Wait, Lynxcat?] I heard him say.

I said nothing. All that was coming from me was a series of sobs and weird noises.

[Oh my paint, Lynx are you alright??] I heard Ink's worried voice.

"Pansy...Pansy!!" I kept saying her name.

[Pansy? Who are you talking about Lynx? Come on, say something!]

"Pa...N..." I was getting worse, my whole body in total stand still.

[Wait...Pansy...You mean Pansina Monica from our class?] I heard Ink mention her name.

"Pan...sy...ye...s....Pa....n....s…." I was still very shaky because I wasn't done with crying.

[Lynx, what's wrong with Pansy??]

"I du....nno....I...du...nno…" I wasn't even sure if Pansy was alive now.

[Where are you now? I'll come get you, then we'll find her.]

"Uh....Sw....sweet...sh....op..." I looked at the shop next to me saying: 'Sweet Shop'. There was only one sweet shop in Snowdin after all.

[The sweet shop. Okay. I'll come get you.]

…………………………………………………………………………

I suddenly saw a pair of brown boots in front of me. Warmth came over me as something soft and woolly landed on my back.

"H...huh?" I looked up and saw a pair of odd coloured eyes. 

"I-Ink!" He smiled at me and helped me stand. "Come on, it's too cold for you to just squat here."

My legs were in pain. Mostly it felt like there were needles poking me. They were asleep.

"Come on. I'll take you to Pansy." he lead me past Snowdin into the Land of the Blue Flowers.

………………………………………………………………………….

"Pansy!" We both cried as Ink kicked the door open.

The said girl turned around with tears in her eyes. "Ink, Lynx!" she cried and walked up to us. 

"Pansina what's going on? You gave Lynx quite the scare!" Ink protested.

"Oh, I did...? Oh..." She looked away guiltily. 

"Pansina?" I asked.

"You see...I'm moving away with my family to a new place. It's called the Kingdom. It's too far away from Snowdin for me to go to our school...So this my last goodbye..." she said, her gloved hands folded neatly on her lap. 

"Oh...so...that's why..." I started.

"Yes. That's why the message said that. I'm sorry for scaring you."

…………………………………………………….................................

"Take care, okay?" Pansy looked at me with her gentle brown eyes. 

"I will. You too." 

I saw her walk into the black Sedan and she said with a teary voice. "Goodbye, Lynx."

"This isn't goodbye!" I replied.

"What?" Pansy was shocked. 

"I'll see you later, Pansy!" I waved to her.

"I'll see you later, Lynx. Same time next week?"

"Yeah," I said. "Same time next week."
