Then he broke the silence and started talking, ” Why aren’t you replying to any of my messages or calls? ”
I didn’t say a word, I just stared at him.
He asked me again in a high-pitched tone,” Why weren’t you responding to me? ”
I remain silent.
He continued after a long pause, “Why are you doing this to me again?, you left me once before, and now you are trying to leave me again? ”
I started crying, ‘’no I’ve never left you, I’ve always kept you in my heart, there wasn’t a single day when I haven’t thought about you’’ I said. Tears rolling down my cheeks.
He grabbed my arm and said ” then why were you avoiding me? ”
” I was upset about you having a girlfriend ” It felt great to finally tell him the truth.
“Wait! What?” He replied in a confused voice ” I don’t have a girlfriend “.
He read my face and said, “Julia was only my friend and nothing else ”
I felt silly for the assumption after he said this. I couldn’t make eye contact with him.
He continued the conversation and said, ” the day you left my house in a rush was the worst day, I fels so sad and confused and I have never been able to forget you, I’ve always loved you and I always will, I couldn’t imagine my life without you, I can’t lose you again I’m not strong enough. Will you please be my girlfriend?.” I nodded and we hugged, a long warm hug. I always believed in true love and at this moment I realised that true love never dies, it always comes back.
I was sitting on my roof top staring at the splendid dark, starry sky and a glorious full moon right in the middle of it. I started thinking about him. He is the funniest, caring, freakishly romantic partner one could ever have. Everything became better when he holds my hand, when he smiles at me and when he looks deep into my eyes. His mere presence changes my mood in a heartbeat. It has been almost 5 years since we started going out with each other and nothing had changed. Except now I’m his fiancée. Luke proposed to me after our graduation. And we decided to get married after his post-graduation. Our families were happy with our decisions. Well I think I’m the most blessed person that I found my love.
