Almost a month had passed, with it Christmas and New Year. Tita enjoyed some time with her family before her finals, which would take all of her time in the following weeks.

Tita and Marcus had been talking every day, even if it was just through messages, but he knew the girl was about to go through a stressful phase and was doing everything to spend time with her, virtually, before that.

- Remind me again, when it's your first final? - he asked, while facetiming her

- In freaking 5 days, Marcus, I'm going crazy! - she snorted

- Hey, calm down! I know it's hard, but you can do it, alright?

He was trying to help Tita, but she was very nervous. It was not the finals, in itself, it was everything in her life. In less than a month she was going to start an internship, and after that she was supposed to start working; was she ready to it?

- I miss you, Marquitos. And I have to pass all my finals in order to be with you, but it seems like it's so far off.

- I miss you too, Tita, but we're almost together. Right now, just focus on your finals and you'll be here in no time!

Three weeks had passed, and Tita had just finished her last final. She texted Marcus, knowing he wouldn't see it for a few hours. She decided to spend some time with her friends at lunchtime and for some hours she forgot all about her responsibilities.

Until she got home and went to check her mailbox.

- Mierda!
