Alone

Cynthia

I wake up in the night at like 1:00 AM to see that John was just coming in the room.
"John!" I whispered
"You don't sleep, you?" he laughed
"I was just waking up when you entered in the room. Are you tired?" I smiled
"Oh well, sorry to wake up you. No, I'm ok I slept."

I looked him with questions in my eyes and smiled to him before falling asleep again.

At the morning I saw that John was already wake up. I went to the kitchen to see that Mimi was preparing the breakfast for us three. John was reading and looked so much distracted and different. He was in his head and didn't talk. I did same and ate my breakfast in silence looking at my things to study.
"You'll come with me to see Cynthia yet?" John finally asking me
"Yes, for sure! I'll be so happy to see her."
"Happy to hear that someone will be." he said in looking at Mimi
"John!" Mimi comments
"I said nothing, continue to eat I'll do same and I'll go in my bedroom after."
"Can I just know what happened?" I asked so embarrassed
"Nothing special." John said in stand up to go at our bedroom

I stand up too and follow him in the bedroom.
"John.."
No answer
"John... what happened?"
"Oh that's just that Mimi isn't so happy that I past the night out of the home and she said that Cynthia is like the other that I had, it will be the story of one week or two, but it isn't."
"Oh John, don't worry I understand it. But if you said that it's not like with the other girl and if you have the arguments to prove it she will believe you. I'm sure that she's so sweet!"
"That already did one month with her.."
"That's a miracle! Did you tell it to Mimi?"
"No, I'm going to..."

And he did it. After that, Mimi begin to see that John was in love with her for real.

"Alexa, are you ready to go?" John asked me
"Yes, wait a minute I come!"
"That did twenty minutes that I wait a minute!" he said

I leave the room and I take my things to go with them. John smiled happy that I was finally ready and we take a taxi to take Cynthia.

Arrive at her home, John show me to stay in the car and walked at the door. I saw her and I automatically know why John loves her. A beautiful blond girl with a little face. She was perfect.
I smiled to her and she sat down in the car with us.
"Hello, I'm Alexa Stanley-Lennon! I'm happy to meet you, John talked so much about you!" I told
"Hi, Alexa. I'm happy to meet you too." she smiled

She looked so timid. That's normal, she didn't know me so much. But after some hours I learned to know her and she was really the best girl for John.
