When our plane landed from Missouri at around ten o'clock in the evening, I wanted go hit the road from Raleigh heading to Winston-Salem where Sascha is currently based. Her classes started a week ago, and my team just got to Stanley Cup playoffs. Which means, I will be constantly on the road now for games and I won't have much time of days off to go visit her.
We just had some quick stay-in quality time together at her apartment last week. We cooked dinner, watched a movie, cuddled, slept, cuddled and made breakfast. Just what normal couples do, minus the couple and sex by the way.
I was serious when I say that I don't want to do anything to her unless she says that she wants to be my girl already. Again, I respect her decisions so I will have to wait. Based on how she reacts upon seeing me that day, I know she wants me so bad too there's just something that is stopping her. I guess it was all caused by her past which she haven't mentioned to me yet. I am actually waiting for her to tell me, but guess she's not ready yet. So, I will also have to wait for that.
Waiting sucks! But patience is a virtue and things will be worth it soon. In perfect time!
I texted Sascha again trying to confirm if she'll stay at my place for the weekend. I miss sleeping next to her.
Sascha: yup! I'll be there at around 1. See u! xx
I replied back with a heart-eyed emoji.
"Who are you texting?" My nosy friend Jarvy suddenly asks who is seating next to me.
"None of your business!" I replied. Both of us are riding along with the Captain Sebastian, our places are just near from each other so we always tend to come ride along.
"Dude, seriously you're constantly on your phone now. Do you already have a girlfriend that I don't know about?" He asks.
"What? Are you jealous?" Sebass inserted which made me to snort.
"Yeah, are you?"
"You wish?" Jarvy says smirking. "You're not that hot."
"And you are?" I challenged. But Jarvy wasn't able to respond because my phone is already ringing.
I expected that it's a call from Sascha, but it was from a different person. I picked it up right away, complete curious that Hailey is calling me.
"Hailey, you called." I said after swiping my phone screen.
"Jesperi? I am so sorry. Am I disturbing you?"
"No. It's good. I'm just on my way back to my apartment. What's up?"
"I apologize for this convenience but I just wanted to ask some favor."
"What is it?"
Hailey is one of my childhood best friends back in Pori. My brother, me, her and my other two friends are on the same school and classes until we were in highschool so we are pretty close and treat each other more like brothers and sisters. Hailey is like a younger sister to me and Kasperi because she loves spending most of her time at our house with my mom and being in a household full of hockey boys, kind of stressing my mom out so she was there to balance it out.
A year before I got drafted from the NHL, at the very young age Hailey got pregnant and her jerk boyfriend at that time left her. Her family also decided to move in America specifically in Richmond, Virginia the very moment I also got drafted to play in Montreal. From then on we haven't seen each other in flesh including her baby, Baby Luke. But we still do talk through WhatsApp on our groupchat. Now, is quite a surprise.
Instead of answering I heard sobs.
"Hey, Hailey what's going on?"
"I just need your help." She answers sobbing again. "My parents just disowned me for real this time Jesperi and I don't know where to go."
"Why? What happened? What about your boyfriend Patrick, he can't help you?" I asked.
"Patrick left me." She answered. "I need your help. I am in Raleigh right now."
"Oh, okay." I said. "I'll text you my address, you can tell me everything. Just calm down in there, alright?"
"Okay." She says and hang up.
"Who was that?" Sebass asks.
"Hailey, one of my bestfriends back in Finland. She needs help or something."
"Is it major?" Jarvy asks.
"Well, I hope not." I said completely praying that it's not dealing with life and death situation.
I'm way too curious now! I'm kind of worried.
