January 1st, 

I did it, I called him, I- I don't know what to write. So many thoughts. So many feelings.

January 2nd,

That was a- that was a lot last night. We really had a great conversation, it felt like no time had passed between us. We started talking about how our lives have been, and what we were doing for work, but the small talk didn't last long. Not at all. "Leo, were you at the top of the hill at the Octillio Ball?" I asked "...you saw me?" "Why didn't you dance with me?" "I- I think I was nervous to be shunned by ""everyone"", I don't know why I cared so much back then. I am really sorry Stargirl" I was struggling to hold back my tears, "it's okay Leo. That's in the past now." "It shouldn't be" I didn't know how to respond "seems like you have grown up a bit, huh Leo?" "I guess you could say that" (okay but😏) there was silence between us for what felt like a millennium "I miss you, Leo" "I miss you too, Stargirl" I started crying I couldn't help myself, he did too. We kept crying, and crying. He asked me "how many pebbles do you have in your wagon?" I said "4" "Why so low?" "I've been thinking about you a lot, Leo. How many pebbles do you have?" "..." "Leo? Are you there?" "I think I have... 4 pebbles too" "Why so low?" "I have been thinking about you a lot too" We kept talking more and more throughout the night until we could hardly keep our eyes open anymore. We talked about, well, everything, all the memories we had from when we first met, to when I left, and everything in between. He asked me if I wanted to talk tomorrow (which is today), and of course I said yes. As tired as I was, I couldn't fall asleep that entire night, I was too busy thinking about Leo. I think I am going to call him right after this entry, wish me luck :)
