Accidental Encounter

27. Home again

Bruno's POV

I can't believe she's gone. I fucked up this time. The one time I didn't do anything wrong it went completely wrong.  I should have called her or bought her flowers, or taken her out to dance. I thought to myself sitting at the piano with an empty head.  I closed my eyes and let my heart pour out over the keys.

Same bed but it feels just a little bit bigger now
Our song on the radio but it don't sound the same
When our friends talk about you, all it does is just tear me down
'Cause my heart breaks a little when I hear your name

It all just sounds like oooooh…
Mmm, too young, too dumb to realize
That I should've bought you flowers
And held your hand
Should've gave you all my hours
When I had the chance
Take you to every party
'Cause all you wanted to do was dance
Now my baby's dancing
But she's dancing with another man

My pride, my ego, my needs, and my selfish ways
Caused a good strong woman like you to walk out my life
Now I never, never get to clean up the mess I made, ohh…
And it haunts me every time I close my eyes

Wow this could be a hit.  I grabbed my cell phone and called Phil.

"Yo I think I have inspiration for a new hit.  Get over her.  Fuck it just listen, Im'a  put the phone down. " I said as I started to play and sing.

"Yo bruh I don't want to harp on you problems but that shit is dope!  I'm headed over. We gotta finish it.  Then we gotta find her." Phil said. I could hear him fumbling with his keys.

He pulled up like a bat outta hell. After we finished the song we sat there in awe just silent.  Never had we started and finished a song so fast.  

"Well man we gotta find her." Phil said breaking the silence. "Man I think she left the state.  She wasn't at work, I went by all her friends houses with no results, and she won't answer her phone. " I said burying my face in my hands. 

"Let's go get her in Colorado.  Man you know her well. She isn't gonna say anything to her mom. Call her Kom and see what she says, just don't sold like y'all over with." Phil said excitedly.

"You're right.  Okay I'll call her mom." I

*Ring Ring*
Liz: hello
Bruno: hi. It's bruno. Is Laura around?
Liz: oh hey. No she called earlier but her bus hasn't arrived yet. I guess I'm going to pick her up in the morning.
Bruno: Oh okay. Well don't  tell her I called. I'm going to surprise her. 
Liz: muy baby loves surprises. I won't say a word.  So what are you surprising her with?
Bruno:um uh well I want to take her in a cruise.  Don't say a word to her please.
Liz: Ok  mijo your secret is safe.
Bruno: buh bye

"She won't get there until tomorrow morning." I said to Phil.  "Yo let's fly out there. Brandon is cool. Private jet we got this." Phil said.  "Come on man. If she didn't mean the world to you this whole evening wouldn't have happened.   Get yo shit, leggo." He continued.  I packed a duffle bag and we headed to the airport.   Phil called Brandon and everything was ready to go when we got there.  

We landed in her hometown and rented a car at the so called airport. This is a damn joke.  I can't even believe this is an airport. It's so small. I thought to myself.   We set up the navigation and Phil drove to the smallest Marriott I have ever seen.  "Man everything is so small here. No wonder she hates Cali.  You can get across this whole city in 10 minutes with traffic.  This is insane." I laughed. "I can't get over the fact that there are no tall buildings here. There's no skyline!" Phil said looking around.  We checked in and showered and came up with a plan.
