(ARIELLE'S POV)
"Italy?" Ashley repeated, her eyes wide with surprise.
"Yes, the founders of the scholarship have their academy in Italy," I responded, excitement sparking inside of me.
"What scholarship?" Ashley asked, her brow furrowed in confusion.
"The one Mr Stone, my manager, told me about," I explained. "I had turned it down, but I think it's the solution to my decision to move now."
"Tell me more-"Ashley made to say, but I was already shooting out of my chair. I hurried to the sitting room and retrieved my phone from the couch, tapping on the calendar screen. My heart skipped a beat as I realized it was less than two weeks before the scholarship expired. "What's going on?" Ashley called out.
"I have to call Mr Stone," I responded, already dialing his number.
"Hello?" Mr Stone's voice came through the line.
"Hi, Mr Stone. I'm calling about the culinary scholarship. I know I declined initially, but I'm interested now and would love to know if it's still Open."
"Ah, Arielle! I'm glad you're interested, now. You don't know how much I wanted you to take the offer and how disappointed I was when you turned it down. Yes, the offer is open and won't be ending until a week's time. And even if it was closed, You're one of my top candidates, and I'd have pulled a few strings around to get you in."
A smile and a blush crossed my features. "Thank you. How do I apply?"
"You can sign the papers when you come to work tomorrow."
"Alright. Thank you for your kind response."
"Oh, it's nothing. Do have a good night's rest," and the line went off.
I returned to the dining room beaming. "It's happening."
The next day at work, I took the scholarship form, but as I began to fill it out, I realized I needed some documents. But there was a problem, those documents were back at Jared's place.
A knot instantly formed in my stomach as I thought about returning to the house. If I could have my way, I would love to skip that par jt I can't because I need the documents if I still want to be able to travel.
Hesitant, and at a loss on what to do, I dialed Ashley's number. "Hey, I need your help," I said, explaining the situation to her.
"Don't worry, I'll go with you," She offered without hesitation after I was done explaining.
