Later that day, after saying goodbye to Lydia who was later discharged spent the rest of the day with Wade. And I was glad they were finally mending their beef and drama, it's nice to see love bloom.
Soon I realized that for the afternoon I was all alone, Marc was stuck in Germany attending meetings. And when I want to play with the kids they're knocked out deep in sleep.
But despite the loneliness I wasn't going to be a victim I decided to wear a decent dress, get in my car and drive to a private restaurant almost on the edge of town. By the time I arrived the place was empty upon request of me. In no time I was seated, enjoying some green tea, and checking my newsfeed.
"Is this seat taken?" I was too busy reading a story about how Lydia built schools, churches, and was on the brink of curing AIDS before disappearing for 2 years traveling the world and whatnot. "Sure," I mutter scrolling down my phone for another interesting story, this time it was about Marc...
"Wow you're still as beautiful as I remember." My eyes peered up where I saw the man who gave me hell most of my adult life. He was wearing black glasses that immediately reminded me of how I blinded him. "Nolan." He smiles and sits down without me saying a word besides his hated name. He moved his cane side to side before reaching for the chair in front of me, he easily sits down. "Well don't look too shocked Mia darling. I mean you're creating wrinkles." I was blinking at his charm, or whatever it is.
"What-" I looked around the empty place. "How did you get in?"
His face had matured over the years; I can't remember the last time I saw him without pain. Right now I guess feeling shock. "Well I own the restaurant now and many more around the world."
What the hell? Damn it, and here I wanted to slip in an apology. "I'm sorry for blinding you and umm could you elaborate on what you mean?"
He leans in with a smirk on his face. "First I don't accept your apology my dear sweet soft Mia. At least I know you are deadly with a bat and music for that matter."
There was an awkward silence between us,
"Nolan how does someone who works in construction own a 5-star restaurant?"
His chuckle was anything but pleasant instead it was menacing.
"I'm a Billionaire."

Marc, Lydia, Wade, Mom, Dad, Anita, and even Jake who didn't know Nolan personally would've tossed me in the car and drove off away from this place. They would kill me if they knew I stayed around Nolan for 3 hours lost in time.
I don't know what was stranger that I didn't leave the second Nolan appeared or that I stayed. The last time we talked he was offered a job by Wade, and I thought of Nolan's abs, and that's what pushed me to not intentionally blind him but give him a well deserved ass whooping. When I found myself listening to himself talk, watching him listen to me talk, I almost forgot I was talking to Nolan...
