It's been so long.
So long since I've been back here.
I honestly don't know why I came back here in the first place.
Ten years ago, I graduated high school and then I left. Left Luckett, left the city, left the state and I haven't been back since.
"Flo?" I stopped in my tracks as I turned to see Luca.

Luca Giovanni Patchouli
Thank God she was the first person I ran into.
I squealed, immediately engulfing her in a hug.
"When you said you were coming back the for reunion, I honestly didn't believe you." She laughed.
"I know." I laughed too. "I didn't really believe myself." I sighed. "But you know. The reunion isn't the only reason I came back."
Even though I left Houston, ten years ago. Luca is one of the few people I stayed in contact with. I resided in New York for the last ten years and now I'm back in Houston not only for the reunion but for a job offer. A job offer so great that I had to swallow my stubbornness and move back home.
"I know." Luca gushed. "Now we can finally have our lunch dates in person rather than having them via FaceTime."
I smiled nodding my head.
I didn't realize how much I missed Luca until I was standing right in front of her.
"Ready to go inside ?" She asked, hooking her arm with mine.
I opened my mouth to speak but immediately closed it. I swallowed hard.
Was I ready to go inside and see so many faces that I have seen in years.
