Day 96. "You are so messy," Alex laughs, wiping the tip of my nose with his thumb. "How did you get ice cream on your nose?"
I laugh and punch him softly in the chest.
"That's your fault!" I laugh again, grabbing a napkin and wiping my nose. I stare into his eyes. "Come closer," I whisper, not breaking eye contact until his lips are close to mine.
Day 97. What is the present? Is it the split second that we are doing something? Because everything just keep passing, and instantly becomes the past. The words I am writing, as I am writing them, are becoming the past. Is the present the time between when I click on the keyboard and it appears on the screen? What a pity it is that everything present takes no time at all to become a part of the past, becoming just a memory that will also eventually fade with time.
Day 98. Uni started again today, and it was a chore waking up so early to get ready.
Day 99. I check how many days it has been since Mike left me broken. 99. I'm not hurting anymore, but I still miss the closeness we used to have. Before we got into the relationship, we were best friends. I wonder if I should forgive him enough to be friends again?
Day 100. I decide to check on Mike today.
"Hi, Mike," I say softly.
"Hi, Astrid," Mike says, coughing. Surprisingly he looks better than he did last time I saw him.
"Are you better?" I ask.
"Yes, they said it was in the early stages," Mike explains. "I'm lucky I went for a checkup and found out. They've given me a lot of medication, but I just have to go through an operation where they'll remove it, and then hopefully it won't come back."
I breathe, relief washing through me.
"Well, Mike, I just wanted to say I forgive you. And we can try again, to be friends, because if I want to be totally honest, I miss you. I miss my best friend."
He smiles and I hug him, he squeezes my shoulders softly.
"Thank you Ass!"
"Hey!" I say loudly, trying not to laugh, pinching his cheek. "Stop it, you know I don't like that!"
He laughs.
"I missed you too, Astrid, more than you know," Mike says softly.
