Michael froze, at the same time he felt something very warm in his chest. Could this be butterflies? She sounded so cute and so nice.
Kat had being sleeping till late. She kept waiting for him to text her or see him in IM, there was nothing. Just silence the loudest silence she ever heard. She was giving up. She was for sure thinking he was gone from her life. She was in deep sleep when her phone rang, with a very peculiar ringtone she had assigned to him. In any case he called, and then like coming out of a fog she flail removing her covers. and snatching the cellphone from the charger.
She cleared her throat and said:" Hi. He did not answer at first, then she heard him clear his throat too.He asked. Bonita? Yes Joseph, it's me. It IS you." He said like reassuring himself that she existed.That in this twisted world could still be a loving soul, someone to spend the rest of his life with... And he stopped there." I miss you Joseph." She said in a sad but loving tone." I miss you too Kat."He asked, "Did I wake you? I mean... I am sorry I woke you. I couldn't sleep he said as an excuse. Your sister brotherly bonding?" She asked and she let out a soft laugh. His heart pounded so fast!
It was HER. There where no cat fishing from her part. He felt her as if she was right there, by his side." I am so tired and at the same time I feel like I have to much energy." He chuckled away from the phone. He did not want her to hear his singular laugh." I know what you mean she said softly. Yeah.. I felt the same the night we met. Oh, so did I!" Said Michael. It was as if he was getting to know her again and he loved it.
"Do you want me to let go so you can sleep some more. No please, don't go. Even if you did, I would not be able to sleep now". With the excitement of hearing your voice.- Me either!- . Said Michael very exited. and they both laughed . So he grab one of the pillows and held on to it rolling on his side." I am so sorry Kat. He pleaded quietly, almost a whisper. Why ? She asked. For keeping you waiting like this." " Kat... If you ever meet someone in your life and you feel safe and loved. I will understand. I don't want to keep you waiting. I already found him. She said very low. You Did? He asked in shock and disbelief. Um-hum she mumbled. I met you... There are not two of you and I love what I hear and read. No matter what you look like." She answered with a smile.
"It is so not fair to you. He said feeling bad. I take what you give me, not questions asked. You would have your reasons . " I like your voice, I like your laugh and I like what I feel when i am around you."
He felt his heart fly high in the dawning sky. He could not stop smiling and so he kept saying silly things so she would laugh and he would brand that laugh in his mind till the end of time. He did not want to hang up. He closed his eyes trying to imagine her in his arms. Then he heard someone calling him; Joseph, from very far away. Then he opened his eyes that could hardly stay open." Joseph? He heard on the phone. Oh my lord! I fell asleep . She chuckled and it sounded like bells. You fell asleep because you felt relax while I talked to you". He could almost see the smile on her face." Go to sleep Joseph , is not good for your health to be up for so long.( If she only knew) I want to stay here with you."
I am. But before I leave I want to at least tell you what I more or less look like. I want you to know that people used to call me adorable as a child and ugly as a teen." We all go through that face, Joseph. I thought i was very ugly". " You did? He asked surprised. I know is not fair, but can you send me a picture of you when you were a teen?" She laughed softly, I will." Ok so... I am 5'10 I weigh 130 pounds. I was always in the 120 pounds but then I got old. He he. I have jet black hair. long down to my shoulders." Sometimes I leave it curly, sometimes I blow dry it. Sounds lovely," she said with her eyes closed imagining him." A bit tan. I heard that I have kissable lips. oooohh interesting and she chuckled and big brown eyes. Oh and I have all my pearly whites." " You sound amazing to me. You ARE amazing to me. He said without holding back."
They said good night and good morning several times. Neither one wanted to hang up. But finally he did. Falling asleep he wondered. " What would it be like to have her in front of me" In another part of the world... she was thinking the same.
