"Do you think he knows?" - Blake held his glass, filling it with some coffee in the meanwhile his wife walked closer to him.
"Impossible!" - she said, caressing his arm with kindness. - "Jorge thinks his father abandoned us" - " Yeah, but something's weird. Don't you think? The fact that Sir Thomas found them in my office, Jorge and Jeremiah knew I was busy with Lady Krunis at that time" - "Maybe it was something about work" - "Yeah, maybe. I'm gonna fix this."
"ARE YOU SERIOUS?!" - "Yeah, Yeah"
I started jumping around for the entire room when Jeremiah told me that Benji was coming home in that day, I got emotional all of sudden, I couldn't believe I was going to meet him again so soon!
"Can't you try to not be so happy? I'm jealous" - "Ahhh are you still trying to date him? Step away I have to talk to him first!" - Jeremiah looked at me and smiled, he walked close to me trying to stop me from jumping on the bed - "Who knows..." he said, blocking my hands from all the weird movements I was doing.
"We should prepare something for him!! He's been away for 2 years!!" - "So... A cake?" - "AND BALLOONS!!" - "Jey you are screaming again".
My voice was so loud and excited that got the attention of Sir Thomas who entered my bedroom and almost had a heart attack when he saw all the mess I made jumping around, but he could tell that all the bad news disappeared from my mind when I screamed again: - "BENJI IS COMING HOME TODAY!!!"
My heart was racing fast, I think everyone in the house could tell I was excited about his return, I thought that we could have finally talked: I would have told him that I loved him.
And maybe he would have told me he loved me too, tears of happiness drop from my eyes too many times that day, so much that Jeremiah decided to let me stop making the cake because I was drowning it in tears.
He finished to cook and I thought about decoding Benji's bedroom with balloons and flowers. It seemed an eternity to me since the last time I walked into his bedroom, nothing changed, as usual.
Looking to his bed I remembered the first time I stepped into the room, with some orange flowers, I remembered his smile... He looked so happy that day.
While decorating I took some time to get lost in my thoughts, walking close to the windows where the pool could be seen: our first kiss showed up in my mind as an indelible picture. I held my shirt, thinking back to how much nervous I was having him so close, his eyes stuck on me.
I will never understand how Benji was able to make me shake without even trying, he just had to look at me with his dark eyes, the same eyes that broke my heart many times.
"Are you done with the flowers?" - "It's snowing..." - "Uh?" - Jeremiah walked close to me, he looked confused so I repeated myself "Don't you feel like it's snowing?" - "What are you talking about? It's June!!" - "Oh.. Yeah! But the pool's white wall looked like snow for a moment"
My eyes got blind for a second, but it really looked like snow.
