The same version of you

Chapter 1

His vibe was so contagious! We both couldn't believe God had finally answered our prayers. I was a mixer of two opposite emotions, I was happy, overjoyed really but sad that I wouldn't be able to see him for the next two years!

We were so close, him and I. We shared everything, sadness, joy, secrets...you name it! Some people actually thought we weren't really in a relationship because of how we treated each other. You know when you with your best friend of the opposite sex and you can be nasty and cute all at the same time? That was us alright!

The drive to the airport had been so quiet. I was going through the emotions while he stroked my hair softly as I lay my head in silence on his chest. His mother was next to the driver at the front seat and she was as quiet as I was. Obviously both sad and happy about him leaving. We all knew he had to, I was going to study Law and both my parents wanted me to settle down with an educated man as well. Personally I wouldn't have minded what he did for a leaving. I loved him not his choice of career. However I would've been lying had I said the idea of my boyfriend being a doctor on its own didn't send me on a mini-climax!

We had been quiet early to the airport. The kind of early that is way beyond check-in time. That's what happens when your boyfriend's mother tags along, everything is done on time. We weren't complaining though, although we had wanted some quiet place and time to bid our temporary goodbyes properly. Ow how I hated goodbyes!

I appreciated him for holding my hand the whole time. He would occasionally squeeze it softly, almost like he was reassuring me of something I was unaware of or those fears he knew I couldn't express. Had I been able to express them I would have. I had to let go of the fear. This was the beginning of the rest of our lives......

Am baaaaaack!!!! I took down my last book because of personal reasons. That story is so close to my heart and I wanna work on it at my own pace and time. I appreciate the comments and advice i got. Please let me know what you think of this one and vote please! I'll update the next chapter in 12 hours time. xoxo
