"Be my lover again....let's love again and it will be our last love because I am not ready to let you go again.....I let you go once and I didn't let my regrets go because they were my remainders worse I held onto them."
*Saturday*
   "You look so beautiful....as always" Cliff says staring at Ritz
    "Thanks"
    "My friend has always been a beauty please" Karen jumps in
     "Yes....I know right, you guys are beautiful" Cliff replies smiling
      "So where are you guys going to? a restaurant? park? Karen asks with extreme curiosity.
       "The cinema....we want to watch a movie" Ritz replies
       "Are you for real?" Cliff asks Ritz almost immediately.
       "Yes" she replies
       "I thought you wanted to go to the restaurant, the Chinese restaurant that just opened down the street" Cliff says
        "I changed my mind" Ritz replies
        "So you guys discussed about it? I thought it should be between you and I, Ritz" Karen says rolling her eyes.
       "Are you the one taking her out on a date?" Cliff asks facing Karen.
        "Whatever.....Ritz let's talk......come here" Karen says as she takes Ritz's hand.
       "Excuse us" Ritz says
They leave for the room to talk.
       "So what is happening?" Ritz asks
       "You are going to the cinema because Mason likes going there"
       "Karen, please"
       "What?"
       "You know I am saying the truth"
       "When we come back....we will discuss this"
Ritz leaves the room to meet Cliff afterwards Karen comes out.
       "So I checked my phone for the movies showing this afternoon at the cinema and I found an interesting one which I am sure you are gonna like"
       "Which one? Cliff....Ritz asks
       "Be my lover again" he replies
       "That sounds interesting" Karen jumps in
       "I think I watched the trailer....I am not really sure" Cliff adds
       "Let's go watch it then"
       "Alright Karen, we will see you later"
       "Don't come back without anything"
       "We will definitely get something for you....don't worry"
       "I trust you, Cliff then she smiles
       "Bye"
       "Take care"
They leave then Karen shuts the door after them.
                 *******************
      "Mason, please"
      "Clover, I don't want to go anywhere, I am not in the mood to and besides I don't want some people to know I am back in Los Angeles"
       "Okay....I don't want you to be tempted that's why I insist we go out.... I mean we can't stay inside for the day" she moves closer to him with her seducing eyes.
He looks at her then he smiles after he takes his eyes away.
       "Those eyes can't work on me"
       "Are you sure?" she looks at him more.
       "Yes" he looks at her then he went blank.
They were staring at each other for a while but Mason takes his eyes away then he stands up.
      "Alright....you win"
      "I knew it" she stands up also
      "Let's go out"
      "So what are we going to do?"
      "Probably watch a movie"
      "That's really cool" she smiles softly.
      "I know right"
      "So we are going out on a date?"
      "On a date?"
      "Don't you?"
      "Not really a date but we are just going to have fun that's all"
      "See your face when I mentioned date....I was just joking" she laughs loud.
      "Oh my God! You play too much"
      "Let's go....I am really getting bored"
       "Where are we going now?"
       "Watch a movie...my love"
       "You always like to watch movies especially with me"
        "Yes, I do" he pecks her lightly
        "Why?" she smiles
        "You want to know?"he smiles making his tiny dimples come out just a little.
        "Yes, I want to"
        "Kiss me"
        "Okay" she kisses him on his lips for a just while.
        "Tell me now"
        "Kiss me again"
She kisses him again
        "So, say it now"
        "I won't" he smiles as she hits him on his shoulder softly.
        "Mason!" she taps him more on his left hand.
        "Yeah"
        "You just went blank....you didn't talk to me again"
        "I am really sorry, Clover"
        "Were you thinking about something?"
        "No, I wasn't...actually I don't know what movie would you like to see?"
        "Okay then...well on this paper the only available movie is be my lover again" looking at the paper deeply.
        "Really?"
        "Yes, It sounds interesting"
        "Do you want to watch it or not?"
        "Yes, let's watch it"
        "I will go get the tickets, stay here"
        "Alright, don't take long"
                *****************
      "I wasn't able to get another ticket...how do I tell this to Ritz, she really wants to watch this movie" as he looks frustrated holding the only ticket loosely.
       "Are you okay?.....you have been standing there murmuring to yourself?" she moves closer to him
       "I am fine but actually I wasn't able to get another ticket for my friend"
        "Oh, that's sad, I can help you get another one, my boyfriend just went in not quite long"
        "Are you for real?"
        "Yes, I am and we should be fast so the tickets won't finish"
         "Thank you, I am so grateful"
         "No problem, by the way I am Clover"
         "I am Cliff" he shakes her hand
         "Okay, let's go"
They leave fortunately they meet Mason on the queue almost his turn to buy the tickets.
         "Mason, please make it three"
         "Why?"
         "He needs it" she points at Cliff
         "Okay then" he looks at Cliff who is already smiling.
*After few minutes*
         "Thank you so much"
         "You are welcome"
         "You guys are really nice....here the money" he stretches out money to Mason but he refuses instead Clover collects it smiling.
         "We should see after the movie" she says smiling at Cliff.
         "Is she flirting with this guy?" Mason whispers to himself giving Cliff a strange look.
         "No problem then"
         "Yeah, let's meet at this same spot bring your friend along" she says
         "Okay, thanks once again....I have to go and meet her"
         "Her?"
         "Yeah, is there a problem?"
         "Thought she would be your girlfriend by now?"
         "Clover?"
She looks at Mason when he calls her name then she continues.
         "Sorry, I was just joking" then she laughs which infects Cliff, he laughs also.
        "What's funny?" he whispers to himself again.
        "I have to leave, thanks" then he waves at both of them as he leaves.
         "Let's go, we have just few minutes left" he says at last.
         "We just made a friend, I am happy"
         "I know right"
They walk towards the theater to settle down before the movie starts due to the conditions laid down to settle down before a movie starts.
           *********************
*After about two hours*
       "It was really interesting, I knew it but for real those lovers deserve each other"
       "I know right"
       "Are you okay?" he touches her softly
       "Yes, I am fine just a little cold" she rubs her hands
       "Sorry about that"
       "Really wish I and Mason would end like that" she whispers to herself
       "What was that?"
       "Nothing......what are we waiting here for?"
       "We are waiting for a couple"
       "A couple?"
       "Yeah... They helped me get another ticket so we decided to meet here to just have fun, talk and all"
       "You already made friends.....that's cool"
       "Yes, I am sure you will like the girlfriend.....Oh, there she is" as Clover approaches them.
       "Hey"
       "Hi once again" she smiles then her eyes catches Ritz's
       "Did you enjoy the movie because we both did"
       "Yeah....it was so interesting, we did also"
        "Where is your boyfriend?"
        "He is still inside, he is looking for his wrist watch, I pray he finds it"
        "I pray he does"
        "You haven't introduced me to your friend yet"
        "I am sorry....Clover meet Ritz,  Ritz meet Clover" as he points to the both of them at the same time.
        "Hi"
        "Ritz?"
        "Yeah, I am Ritz....is there a problem?"
         "Who is she? Mason...she is really pretty" she holds the picture firmly
         "She is my ex girlfriend, she is Ritz"
         "I have heard that name before"
         "Where?"
         "From you, that night you were drunk, you mentioned her name almost throughout and Cedric mentioned her once"
         "Oh"
         "Do you still love her?"
         "Very much"
         "What happened?"
         "It's a long story.....for another day"
         "Do you know where she is?"
         "No, I don't, I lost her contact a long time ago and she longer lives in the same house as before"
         "Good luck finding her"
         "Thank you but I know I am going to see her again, she is going to walk straight back into my life"
         "Clover!" Ritz snaps her fingers at her.
         "Yeah"
         "Is there any problem?"
         "You have a very sweet name"
         "Thank you"
         "I think he is taking too long, I will go inside to look for him" she turns to the direction of the entrance to the theater looking so straight.
        "She looked as if she just saw a ghost"
        "You are not serious" Cliff laughs.
                ***************
      "I already found my wrist watch" shows her
      "Thank God"
      "So let's go meet them"
      "Who?" she pulls her hair to the back of her ears
      "The guy and his friend"
      "Oh.... They already left"
      "Really?"
      "Yeah, I met them and they were like they can't wait any longer because they have somewhere important to go"
       "Oh.... Well, maybe another day"
       "Who told you we would see them again....you know what?"
       "I am really so tired, let's go home"
       "Are you sure? We haven't done anything fun"
       "It doesn't mean, I am just so tired"
       "Alright then, I will drop you off at home"
       "Thanks....let's go through that way" she points at another direction as she sights Cliff and Ritz standing at the other side then she pulls him and they leave.
             ******************
    "Cliff, I am so tired of waiting, please go inside and look for them"
    "Alright"
    "Sorry sir, how may I help you?"
    "I actually want to go in to look for my friends"
    "Nobody is left inside, we told everyone to leave"
     "Are you for real because I have been standing outside I didn't see them coming.......outside" he points to the entrance.
     "Probably they passed the other entrance" she points at the other entrance at the other end of the theater"
      "Oh, thank you"
      "You're welcome" then she leaves after Cliff.
       "They already left"
       "Are you for real?....probably they are waiting for us at the other entrance"
       "Let's go then"
They leave for the other entrance but they didn't see Clover and Mason which made them go to another place.
