"Why the hell kasie? " i shouted knowing that she just did something  that she'll  regret yet again.
"come on les,  he said he was sorry besides I'm  sure it won't  happen again,  it's  not like  he cheats everyday, "she replies hesitantly.
"yeah but he always does,  don't  you get it? " i sigh. Kasie knew that this wasn't  the right move for her to make.  She knows he isn't  loyal.  Yet she keeps going back to him,  there's  deeper reasoning behind her choices. I'm  positive.  Kasie and I  met two years ago in chem class , she decided to dropout though so we meet daily at the Stud càfe downtown. Stud càfe has been our hangout spot since forever and a lifetime. We always  had the desire to peirce our noses but we just didn't  have the balls too.  And it was stud càfe,  where we met Gemma.  This completes our trio.  It became an unconscious choice and has become pretty regular.
(the present)
I've  always hoped that kasie would reappear,  so it has become  a routine  for me to head down to the càfe on a daily basis. No-one  really knows,  i Just  usually  tell Matt  I'm  going  for a walk , he usually  believes me Without  questioning. Matt has been out of his mind as of recently. Everytime Jane's  birthday comes around ; He zones out. You can tell the past  still haunts him , like a shadow that's  clinging onto him for dear life. It's  weird isn't  it? How time doesn't completely  heal everything, it may numb the feeling  for a little while , but moments like these can rip  up the wounds you've  been trying so hard to heal. Sometimes i wonder what prompted  Katie's  disappearance. My mind is throbbing,  she caused  us multiple years of utter distraught and pain. What was it that ran through  her mind the second she left Jane  on that pavement. What was it? Or was it a who? I start the ignition and turn up the radio;  to my surprise  one  of The Beatles songs is on,  they were kasie and I's favourite  band.  We used to blast their songs non stop  as kasie would rant about her "dropout" phase.  Afterall,  her life was so eventful and so many things took place before her disappearance , it's  like i don't  know what  to think anymore. Was it what i did two days before she fled the country? this very thought  never seems to leave my mind.
