Convergent Love

Chapter 27: Girl Time 2

When I was finally able to calm myself down, I called Malia. I was desperately needing some girl time.

"Hey, I'm back from my trip with Hoseok. Are you free to have dinner tonight?"

Surprised, she asked "Trip?"

"Yeah, I'll tell you everything tonight. Can I pick up dinner and just come to your house? I don't feel like going anywhere."

"Sure. Come on over around 6:00pm."

"Thanks! I'll see you then."

I laid back on my bed and texted Yoongi.

Y/N: Hello! Just letting you know I'm back home.

YOONGI: Hi Petal! I've been anxiously waiting to hear from you. Hope you are okay.

Y/N: Yes, I'm okay.

YOONGI: Can I see you tonight?

Y/N: Sorry, I can't. I'm going to dinner at Malia's house.

YOONGI: Okay, please call me when you get home after visiting her.

Y/N: Okay, I will.

YOONGI: Petal, I love you.

Y/N: Love you, too.

I curled up into a ball feeling absolutely sick to my stomach. I just spent alone time with each of them and I still didn't know what I should do. I was hoping the private time would help me see who I best connected and was deeply in love with, but all I discovered was that I was genuinely in love with both of them. I was no closer to knowing what to do than I was several days ago.

After a few hours of tossing in bed, I took a shower to hopefully feel a little better. I then went to pick up dinner and headed over to Malia's. I brought Italian food and a bottle of Moscato. When she opened the door, I already had tears rolling down my cheeks. She quickly hugged me and grabbed the food to bring into the house. I immediately plopped myself down onto the sofa. She put the food on the table and came over to join me.

"Okay, what do you want to do first, eat or vent?"

Letting out a long sigh, I suggested "Drink," and went to get the bottle of Moscato and poured two glasses. I then proceeded to tell her that Hoseok took me to Maui so that we could watch the sunrise from Haleakala. We stayed in a condo in Kihei, went swimming, saw a Hawaiian Monk Seal, went horseback riding, and the aquarium. I also explained how he taught me a slow hip hop dance for us to do together. It was both beautiful and passionate when we danced together. I then disclosed to her the most important part.

"Just when the sun appeared over the horizon up at Haleakala, Hoseok and I had our first flashback. We went back to the day he proposed to me. It was there, at Haleakala."

Malia stared at me with a shocked expression. "You've got to be kidding! He actually took you to the exact place he proposed to you in your past life? Did he already know that?"

"No. He was so shaken up after the flashback ended. I had to help calm him down."

She sat there quietly listening to me share other events of our trip while I guzzled several glasses of Moscato. Before I knew it, I was very tipsy and started jumping between topics. Malia was now having a hard time following my ramblings and was getting a bit confused.

I was pacing the floor while saying random thoughts. "How can I have possibly lived in the past?........ Why do they have to be brothers?....... The horse Hoseok rode was really cute. His name was Moo Moo........ Maybe I should just up and leave and pick neither of them......... You should see the painting Yoongie and I did with all the cats........ Don't tell them I told you, but they are both really great in bed."
