It's My Story✔

61. Soulmates

SIA POV

"...I love you Sia. With all my heart and soul. We are meant to be together.", he said. His voice held vulnerability that teared my heart. He has gone through so much pain and I was not there for him. That is the thing running inside my head. All these days, I thought he is going far away from me and here he stood in front of me telling that he loves me.

"I still love you Jay.", I said jumping into his arms that were my home. I missed my home. I wanted to tell him that I was waiting for him, I wanted to tell him many things that I stored inside for all these days. But the first thing I got to do is hug him tight and tell him I love him too. To assure him I never left or never would leave.

Tears brimmed in my eyes. They are the ones that are common when one is happy and sad. Now I am happy and sad too. I should have talked to him at least once in all these days, but I didn't. I should have waited for a day without leaving aggressively, but I didn't. I should have said that I missed him a lot when I first saw him this morning, and I didn't. I was at fault too, for all the pain we both endured.

"I love you, Jay. A lot that I can't just tell in mere words.", I said nuzzling my head in his neck. I missed these hugs and his familiar smell.

He didn't say anything and pulled me tight, if it is even possible. His breath fanning my hair like good old days. I smiled in tears, finally my Jay is here, for me, with me. This is all I have asked for.

It started to rain and we forgot to even pull back. We both were drenched completely in the rain when we broke the hug. His eyes sparkled like stars, the ocean blue making magic with my heart. His long hair, which is different but beautiful is my new obsession. The water made it stick to his neck making his look like a Greek god. He has tears in his eyes. I can see them even in the rain.

"Shall we go home?", he asked running a hand in his hair, pulling it back. I nodded with a smile.

When we turned around, I saw Ved and Garry sleeping in the car already. We lost track of time. I don't know for how much time it has been raining. They are happily sleeping in the back seat, folding hands to their front and heads tilted a little. They are not wet like me and Jay. They are good, which means they should have come here when it started to rain.

I just chuckled at them as Jay started the car and we drove back home. There is no music in the car, no words only silence except for the sound of Ved and Garry's breath. But this silence is lot more beautiful than it has ever been. This silence has a music that is mended with the speed and the air outside. Jay concentrated more on the road as it is slippery and it is night and raining. I didn't disturb him. He has a smile that is playing on his beautiful lips. I liked that.

I kept looking outside the window, into the dark, listening to the rain's music. The tapping sound of the rain on the glass. Crickets making some noise far away. Glow worms flying from one place to another. I just smiled. Smile that is bigger than I had for about a year. I loved this day. My birthday. It is just perfect, more that perfect if truly said. Jay is here and he is back in my life. I didn't ask anything else than this day.

By the time we pulled over our house, I was resting my head on the window glass. Jay shook me waking me up from my little nap. I must have slept while he is driving. He smiled when I opened my eyes and went back to wake Garry and Ved.

We all walked back into the home. Ved and Garry collapsed as soon as they hit the bed. It is even a surprise that they managed to walk inside. They literally walked in their sleep.

Jay and I changed our clothes to something warm and dry. I made some hot tea for us to keep us from cold. We didn't have our dinner but I don't mind. I am not hungry anyways.
