*YAWN

I just woke up from a beautiful dream, what a nice way to start this beautiful day. I opened my windows to let the light seep into my room and entered the balcony. Hmm, spring is just lovely, the flowers adorn the streets, the clouds complete the view of the sky, and the weather is perfect. I'm not sure but, I have a good feeling about this day.

"I wonder what time is it already."

I entered my room to check the time and realized that I still have 2 hours to get ready. Just then I received a text message.

"Good morning, see you at the bridge later. I miss you".

I smiled at the message and replied:

"Good morning! I'm excited to see you again and I miss you too."

*Send

His message instantly made me giddier than I already am, so I went to the bathroom with a big smile on my face looking like an idiot. I got out of the bathroom pretty quickly, I guess my excitement is taking over me.

After washing up, I spent 20 minutes looking at my closet and ended up with a cute ensemble. My outfit was simple and it matched with the season; I really liked it. I wore a floral slip-on dress with a white long-sleeved top underneath, I wore my cutest pair of shoes with matching lace socks and to top it all off, a beret on my head.

I have 45 minutes left, so without wasting any more time, I got out of the house and went straight to our rendezvous. I decided to not use any vehicle and take a stroll instead since I wanted to feel the wind in my hair, the ground on my feet, and enjoy this lovely day. Ah, it really is beautiful, I wish everyday was like this.

I was nearing our meeting place and again, excitement rushed all over my body, and without knowing it I was running towards where he was. I saw him there and was taken aback because of the beauty I see in front of me. I stopped from running and just stood there to watch him, though I could only see his back, I knew that he too, was marvelling at the view of the river. It looked like a still from a movie, the cherry blossoms decked the side- all in full bloom, the river catched all the fallen petals from the trees, and in the middle of it all was him, the guy that I love more than spring, flowers, and all of this. I was overwhelmed, I closed my eyes to let this moment sink in, and when I opened them, I saw him smiling at me, so I went to him. He welcomed me with open arms and I hugged him, more tightly than I ever did. I missed him so, so much. Myriad thoughts were running in my head at that moment, but then he kissed my head and all it wiped all of them away, almost as if he knew what was on my mind. Sometimes I wonder, what did I do in my past life to deserve him? I guess I'm just really blessed and I'm forever grateful for that and for him. I raised my head and looked at him and he did so too.

"I missed you so much." he said

"And so did I" I replied

He kissed my forehead before asking where I wanted to go.

"I just want to stop by the flower shop there 'cause I saw some cotton flowers and I decided to buy some for my room, you can just wait here, I'll be back in a jiffy."

He nodded and so I went, he really knows how much I love cotton flowers so he just let me off.

I was delighted to find out that they now can arrange and place the cotton flowers inside a box, so I asked for that one and as I promised him, I went back to the bridge fast...
