“The great Sebastian Sadler broken hearted for a woman.” He said to himself. It wasn’t the first time that he cries for her but this time thungs were differrent. This time she was going to marry his best friend.

3th October 2011

The smell of coffee and cupcakes take Sebastian out of morpheus' arms. 

Hubert has usually invite him to come over and met his fiancée but he has always decline the invitation, when he send an invitation for wedding he couldn’t reject it.

By going there he was expecting to meet a superficial girl, egocentric. Not a girl of an outstanding natural beauty, kind-hearted who was Julia. She always seems to have the power to read into his soul and always seems to know what he really want.

Actually she was the kind of woman that every man wants by their sides. “You deserve what is happening to you, this is all by your fault and your stupidity that she walked away.” He yells at himself.

Comfortably installed on the sofa, Sebastian spent his night drinking and reminiscing about his past with Julia.

Sebastian was suddenly wake up by the sound of the doorbell, apparently someone was really impatient to see him. When he opens the door he firstly believes that it was one of the aftermaths of the hangover.

“Julia?” Sebastian says in surprise.

“I’m not really happy to see you too but I have no choice. My fiancé want me to personally invite you to our brunch this afternoon. I wouldn’t have come if I've had your phone number. ” says Julia while entering his suite.

“Good morning!” he replied. “That’s it, good morning. Judging by your looking, i can tell that you have been through a very bad night.” Continue Julia. Stand in the middle of the room, she was fixing him with a strange look. There was something unspoken he thought.

After what seems like eternity to Sebastian, “I don’t want you to come at my wedding.” She finally added.  “I was invited by Hubert do you remember? I can’t do this to him. And can came specially for that.”

“Yes, but you can’t come.” “Julia but….” “Sebastian you seem not to be aware of the situation. I am your ex fiancée and Hubert’s future wife and he know everything about us.”

“What? You have told him about us?” “Of course yes, he is my fiancé. I have told him the whole story but he doesn’t really know who you are.” “What do you mean by ‘he doesn’t really know who I am’?” “He doesn’t know that you play the stupid bastard in the story.” ”Bastard. really? Julia I try to…” “I don’t want you to bring up the subject.”Suddenly says Julia.

“Julia I try to explain it to you, but you didn’t want to listen.” replied Sebastian.“You know what? I don’t want to hear what you have to say, I have move on since and I’m getting married in almost one week. I don’t think you have spent the past few years reminiscing on that, so just let it go.” She could not handle that Sebastian want to lie to her again.

Julia was about to leave when Sebastian grab her by the arm. “Julia, listen. I won’t oblige you to listen to what I have to say but I just want you to forgive me and I know that part of me... and when I saw you on the quay I…” “Sebastian let me go. And seriously please, don’t come to the wedding.”

For a second Julia think that Sebastian was going to take her in his arms and tell her not to get married because he still love her and she would have replied that she also love still love, then they would have make love eagerly on the sofa with all the love and pain which was consuming them since all these years. But no, he finally releases her and let her walk away.

Maybe she was dreaming too hard, maybe they weren’t meant for each other or maybe he already has someone. She walks out and he silently closes the door behind her.
