You Got Me Sprung

Chapter 21 : Moving To Florida

I'm ready to move to Florida. I'm ready to start fresh. I feel at ease. I feel more at peace. I feel relieved. I hired Moving people. I drove to Florida behind the moving people I hired. I got to my new house in Florida. The moving people got to my new house before I did. The moving people put my belongings in my new house. I paid the moving people and told them " Thank You so much". The moving people said " You're welcome. Have A Nice Day". I said " You too". I went in my new house and put my belongings where it belongs. I finally settled myself in my new house. I breathed the fresh air. I feel at ease already. I went out to go shopping just to treat myself. I definitely needed this self treatment. While I was out shopping I heard someone call my name and I turned around I seen............BRANDON. I was going to walk away until Brandon grabbed my hand. I said " What?". Brandon said " Can I talk to you later please? I'm only out in Florida to see my family. I know you came out in Florida to get A fresh start and to get away from me. I look at him and shook my head yes like " Uh Clearly Man".  Brandon said " I'll see you later at the Cafe Mariah?". I said Yes. I'll see you  later Brandon. Brandon kissed my hand and forehead. He walked with his cousin out of the store. I looked at him as he walked out of the store. I miss Brandon so damn much. His touch and everything. I can't believe I'm being weak in the knees for him again. Somebody help me sweet heavens.

*FAST FOWARD TO LATER THAT DAY AT THE CAFE*

I finally arrive at the Cafe. Brandon arrived 2 minutes before I arrived. Brandon got up , Pulled my chair out, I sat in the chair and he pulled me up to the table. We started talking and the conversation went like this :

*CONVERSATION STARTS*

Brandon : Hey, How are you feeling lately?

Me : I honestly don't know at the moment. How are you feeling lately?

Brandon : I feel very shitty. I feel horrible.

Me : I'm sorry to hear that.

Brandon : I want to talk to you. I want to hold myself accountable to what I have done to you Mariah.

Me : Okay Brandon.

Brandon: My ex girlfriend wasn't lying. I did pretend to care and love you when you genuinely loved me. I did go back to my ex. I did not go back to L.A. to go to work . I never went to work. I cheated on you with Laya when I left from being with you that whole weekend. I tried to make you jealous knowing it didn't work. I was making myself look stupid. I was being a player whole time I played myself. Realizing that I played you, I seen how hurt you were. I was outside sitting on my porch when I seen you throw your bouquet of red roses I got you at the wall. I seen you crying sliding down the wall. I was trying to cover up the fact that I hurt you. Covering up that I hurt you didn't help at all. I ended up hurting myself at the end of the day. I know that you told me that you have been hurt before relationship wise and my player ways just didn't care. When in reality I cared so much for you. I apologize that I have hurt you Mariah. I hope you forgive me Mariah.

* I started crying like really bad*

Me : I forgive you Brandon.

Brandon : Why did you forgive me so fast ?

Me : I want to be at peace. I don't want to be angry towards my loved ones. I want nothing but peace and happiness. I want to be able to move forward without being angry toward the people around me. So, that's why I forgave you.

Brandon : I understand.  Thank You for taking the time to talk and listen to me even though I know you didn't want to hear what I had to say.

Me : Anytime. I have to go. It's getting late.

Brandon : Let me walk you to your car.

Me : Okay. Thank You.

Brandon : You're Welcome.

* CONVERSATION ENDED*

Brandon walked me to my car. I'm still crying. Brandon lifted my chin and wiped my tears. He hugged me so tight and whispered  in my ear and said " You are still in my heart. I will always have love for you Beautiful". I smiled and said " Same for you Handsome". Brandon opened my car door. I got in my car and put my seatbelt on. Brandon closed my car door and gave me a kiss on my face. Brandon said " I'll see you soon?". I said " Yeah". I left and went home. I'm glad that Me and Brandon are back on good terms. We are not back together just yet. Earning my trust back will be A long journey. We are just friends right now. Brandon is going back to L.A. tonight. He was just seeing his family. I officially live in Florida now. Isolating myself to get my mental back where it once was is the best decision I have ever made. I pray for Brandon. I will always pray for him. He also deserve better too, not just me. He still be in my heart.
