---------- One year later, ______'s Mother P.O.V. ------------
It has been difficult. Since the Beilschmidt brothers moved away, _______ hasn't been the same anymore. She don't eat if I don't obligate her, she doesn't play with other kids or went outside. She cried most of the time while looking at photos of her and Ludwig. It broke my heart, but there was nothing I could do but wait until she woke up from her trance and realizes that it isn't the end of the world.
At least I hope it isn't.
---------- Twelve years later, normal P.O.V. ---------
Now you were 17 years old, and hadn't seen Ludwig yet. You lived your life like always: went to high school, did your homework had a half period job in a maid café so you could spare your own money and made friends. Until now you never had a boyfriend, because you realized that your heart already belonged to someone else. Yes, the close friendship you had with the German man turned into another thing to you, that you only noticed after he was gone. You loved him, just like that. Sure, you haven't seen him for, hell, 13 years!! But you remembered him just if you'd saw him yesterday. Sky blue eyes, blond hair and already tall body. If he'd changed, you believed that he only turned even more beautiful then he already was.
He'd never wrote you a letter and neither did you, but that's because you didn't knew his new address; his reason was something you wanted to know… Did he forget you? It couldn't be right? You had been such close friends! Of course he still cared about you… right? 'If he'd still cared about me he would have send me a letter!' you thought. 'Time sure changes things…'
You were curious about him. Did he like there in Germany? Did he make new friends? Does he have… a girlfriend? '
No, no, no and no! He can't have one~!!!
' You shook your head trying to believe that but you knew that this was a minimal chance, after all you were only his childhood friend, nothing else but this.
'
No! I refuse to handle him to another girl!! I love him so much that's quite unfair that he may have a girlfriend!
'
And this was the reason for your half time job. You were saving money since 3 and half years now to buy an airfare to Germany and to make him a surprise. Of course you had no idea where in Germany he was but you would find him, even if you had to search all over the country. Your calculations told you that one more month of working and you'd have enough money to buy it and would still be left a little more.
The only problem was to convince your mother, and you decided that you'd do it after your work, when you came home.
You sighed and took your bag in which was your maid uniform and went to the café. '
Shit, shit, shit!! I'm freakin' late!!
'. Happily the café was quite near to your house so it didn't took you too long to arrive there. You entered by the back entrance and quickly changed yourself.
"You're late, _______" Said your boss. He was a 65 years old man, a little rigorous but still a very good person.
"I'm sorry, Mr. (b/n)!" you apologized with a smile and scratching your head.
"It's okay, since you're a good girl. Just make sure to come punctually next time, okay?"
"Yes, Mr. (b/n). Sorry again" you said and went to attend the costumers, and as always, the café was full of people. Your friends asked you all the time why you worked there and you always answered it was for two reasons: for first because the wage was very good and in second place because you liked the atmosphere there; everybody seemed happy and carefree, always laughing and making jokes while some others tried to flirt with the maids. Sure there were perverts too, but most of them were only lovely people.
