Mia's Untold Stories

Reconciliation

Joseph and I were speaking, not as much as we used to, he stopped being cold towards me, but it didn't bother me all that much. Peter asked me out that following week and I decided to take my chances.

I know it was a bad idea, but I've got to know him pretty well in these two weeks. So today Friday, 17th January 2020, I Mia Parker decided to move on from Joseph.

Peter picked me up at home and we came to Southcliff Hill. It was a place Joseph and I came to watch sunsets, but I knew I had to replace the memories he and I had. Peter had never been here before and I didn't want to keep bringing my ex up in our conversations, as much as he understood I didn't want to be THAT girl.

It wasn't the same. I couldn't help thinking of Joseph. For the few weeks after that, from our first kiss to the cuddles at Tracy's game night, I couldn't help my thoughts. I dreamt of Joseph, but at the same time was forcing myself to fall for someone I didn't truly love.

After month of being with Peter, Joseph asked to see me. Knowing it was wrong, I couldn't help myself but I said yes.

One last time won't hurt you Mia.

Joseph took me to Southcliff hill to watch the sunset as we usually did. It never felt so right, yet at the same time I knew it was wrong to be out with my ex.

I tried my utmost best to hide how I was feeling towards him.

You're in a relationship Mia. Peter is sweet, he doesn't deserve it. Don't do what Joseph done! You're not a cheater. You have self respect. You have morals.

My mind has been telling me one thing, but my heart says another.

Joseph stayed over the night and surely you know what happened. Of course, we hooked up, again.

Mia this is wrong in so many ways.

I hope his telling me the truth about that girl.

Maybe, he still is the dad. He has to have a paternity test done.

Maybe there wasn't a baby in the first place. Whatever his reasons may be, I don't want to live without him anymore. These 4 months without him have been killing me slowly.

I feel like I betrayed all Peter's trust, but I know now I have to end things.

Side note: I got my qualification for my soccer coaching today, to celebrate Joseph took me out with his little cousins.

Exactly thirteen days pass.

I told Peter we better off as friends, but he couldn't handle the promise I broke.

I said I'll try to move on from Joseph, my whole demeanor says otherwise. So after the first five days of "friendship", he decided to cut ties with me.

Let's be honest, what did he expect? Joseph was my first almost everything. He was my first real love. My first real kiss. My first true boyfriend.

Feelings for someone like that, doesn't change overnight. If it ever does change.

The guys of my past is what my folks would call 'Puppy Love', but this, this right here is something else.

This is beyond a doubt, knowing I'll probably get hurt but choosing to stay by his side. This is the, if he were to get gravely ill tomorrow with fecal incontinence or became disabled in anyway I would look after him till my death. It's strange, because the thought of someone getting that sick would usually upset my stomach.

Joseph gave me a strength that I never knew I had. Perhaps it's all the late night prayers, crying so bitterly that the universe sent him back to me.

Maybe, we have been star crossed lovers all along.

I feel bad for everything that occurred between Peter and I, however Joseph's words have been ringing in my ear since my coaching qualification.

"Mia, we never actually broke up. You've always been my girl. It's just been the worst four months without you"

Sweet words from him, will always keep my heart pounding.
