Kara's POV
  That morning I woke up late. It was like every other mornings. I laid in bed for a few more minutes. Alone. Thinking about Alex and Maggie. Winn and Lyra. Mon El and Imra. Why can't I have what they have? A relationship? A happy relationship? Do I not deserve it?

  I scurry to the bathroom and wash my face multiple times so no one will notice I cried myself to sleep. Right before I left the apartment to the DEO, someone knocked on the door.

  "Go away Mon El."
  "I, umm, for the matter of fact, am not Mon El."
  "Oh... I'm sorry... I'm coming! "

  I walked to the door and opened it. It was a man. Perhaps an alien? He was blue. Like 'the smurfs' blue. I frowned and took a few steps backwards.
  "Are you an—"
  "Yes I am. I come from Colu!"
  "What are you doing here?"
  "Oh Mon El sent me!"
  "Get out."

  I closed the door. I couldn't believe Mon El sent someone instead of talking to me himself. He was such a coward. I shook my head and change into my suit. Then flew to the DEO.

  I arrived at the DEO to see Winn and Imra chatting. I stood there for a moment. Trying to use my super hearing to listen to their conversation.

  "Kara!" Mon El spotted me.

  I didn't want to talk to him yet. I decided to walk away. But he followed me.

  "Kara, please listen to me!"
  "You have five minutes."
  "Our engagement was arranged."
  "What?"
  "We did it for the people. We had to."
  "Oh... Guess I was wrong then. I'm sorry. I just couldn't take that kind of news after not seeing you for 7 months..."
  "Imra, Brainy and I—"
  "Who's Brainy?"
  "Oh the one who went to visit you this morning."
  "Oh okay, continue..."
  "Imra, Brainy and I went to the future for seven whole years."
  "Oh wow that's hard to believe... That's why you said it's been seven years."

  Mon El nodded. He apologised again. I smile and walked away. I was quite relieved. I was relieved that he didn't choose to love her. Relieved, that the engagement was arranged. I know that sounded selfish... But I was his. And he was mine. And I loved him. He did too.
