"Baby, I'm home! Did you get the groceries, it's pretty late!" I say going to the leaving room, closing the front door behind me. "Hey, honey. Sure. How is your gym session been?" She asks coming towards me as I sit on the couch.
"It's been fine. I mean pretty boring but fine. There weren't as many people as usual." I say letting out a hard breath looking blankly.

From a sudden, I get a message. It's Mi, she wants to meet me at the park in half an hour. I just text her that I'll be there. "I have to take a shower and then I'll leave." I say going to the bathroom. "Oh...but first let me have you for a moment," she says giving me a soft kiss on the lips. Her kisses feel so safe. Her blonde hair is so lovable. Those blondes...

"I really have to go!" I say chuckling. "Can I join you?" she asks with a pleading face. "You be really needing something pretty soon. You'll get it later." I say jokingly. "But you have to go to work!" she says. "I'm not gonna spend the whole evening with Mi! I'll be back in an hour. "Fine..." she says smiling.

I'm already there. Mi sits on the bench waiting for me as her little daughter plays around. She's almost three, she'll be three in two days actually. "Hi, silly. What's up?" I ask sitting next to her. "I need your help!" she says numbly. "What happened?" I ask furrowing my eyebrows. "I lost my job..." she says. "How dare that?" I ask in a very concerned manner. "My boss, he started to act really strange lately and got me into a very verbally strong fight." she says playing around with her car keys. "After Markus left us for that stupid girl...everything got so hard." she says. "I told you to move in with me if you want to!" I say placing my hand on hers in a protective manner.

"Chris, I can't just move in. You have your own life." She mumbles. "Hey! Megan would be ok with it." I whisper trying to calm her down.

"Besides you can work with me at the club, it's not that hard, you'll see, you'll enjoy it. After Billie left they're still searching for a permanent DJ worker. All they find are just DJs that wouldn't work for more than a few weeks. You could get it pretty easy." I say comforting her. "I guess you're right." she says. "Thank you!" she says.

"First I'll try with the new job, when things are about to get more complicated then I'll let you know." she adds hugging me. "but for now i just need some money to pay my rent..." she says stressed. i nod giving her a hug. how couldn't i help her?

the way things have changed since i left home till now.

"How's Megan been lately?" she asks as I look at the little girl running around. "She's been ok. Mi...trust me when I say it. I love her, very much! But I keep comparing her SO terribly much to... you know...." I say instantly getting in my feelings. "It's been a pretty long relationship. There weren't just random hang out's, there was love. You both...were made for each other." she says. "I get it, Mi...but she's far away right now. She left one and a half year ago on the world tour. Haven't seen or talked to her since we broke up and when she came over that day." I explain.

"You two do broke up pretty easily, don't you think?" she inquires. "Maybe yeah...but she told me that she would never do something that would go on my nerves." I say. "Maybe she feels guilty, that's why she left and never came back." I add.

"come on...you're both almost 24 years old, it's not that hard to put things in their place again." she explains.

"I talked to her three days ago." she adds. For a moment I felt that my heart skipped three beats.

"Really?" I ask with a random enthusiasm. "Yes." she says. "How is she?" I ask. "She's ok. She's with her family. her parents got back together. her brother married Claudia. the wedding is next year i guess." Mi says.

"That's all she said?" I say looking blankly. "Not really. But you already know enough. I don't wanna bring back things. She kept me on the phone for two hours straight." Mi says chuckling. "What did she say? Tell meeee!" I ask extremely curious.

"Fine...we talked about you. She asked me how you've been and if you're as upset and angry on her as the day she left for the tour." mi points out. "I wasn't upset or angry anymore. I would have loved her to come and hug me. I would have hugged her right there but I have my own vanity I can't just kill like that." I say sadly.

"I know. But she thought you hated her. She told me she actually wanted to come to make things with you good again, she wanted to have you as a friend at least, even tho she loved you to the moon and back. But she told me she heard you talking about someone, she understood that you maybe got over your relationship. She wanted to leave but we've noticed her so she has changed the subject, talking about the car headlights." Mi says.

"Too late actually... It's been almost 2 years since we broke up and one and a half since she left for the tour. I'm with Megan now...and I love her..." I say trying to convince myself that I don't need Billie anymore. "You know better. By the way, she'll come back home this evening." as I heard that my breath stopped for a second.

Does that mean I'm going to see her again?....

"Does she knows about Megan?" I ask concerned. "She didn't ask. I think she doesn't." Mi says.

Eventually, it's getting late and I leave. It's 8:05 PM as I enter the front door. Megan is enjoying her meal. "Enjoy your lunch!" I say while walking towards her giving her a soft kiss. "Mmm, pizza." I say while taking a piece. "Hey! It's mine!" she says laughing. "Not anymore!" she says. She's so sweet and cute. the only issue is she isn't that...lets say open minded. maybe smart. call it what you want.

"Baby, I go. Take care. I'll be back at 6." I say taking my things leaving to my car. There's her car. I don't see her but the front door is opened. I feel so many butterflies, I can't even explain. I go to my car before she sees me.

"One more tequila, please." the 41 years old, tall man says. He's coming here every single night. We talk about a lot of things, from life to death. He's pretty cool and friendly. The hours go by pretty fast. I get some drinks from the basement. As I get back I froze.
Sitting there propped on the counter. With her blonde hair and blue eyes, I truly missed.

I never thought she would come, look for me again
