writing camp + thorns

              How many years has it been? Too long to remember. Me? I am good. Excellent actually. I know.. it's weird right. I can't help remembering you while I am here. I am in town to meet the girls. Sometimes I am hoping I can meet you down the road,by the restaurant that the girls chose,or just by the roadside while waiting for the kids to have their ice cream. The girls have their own family already, well except me. I was here last wedding, you were not. Nooo.. it’s not because I want to be single you silly.I do have my share of relationships, but for now I just enjoy whatever I have with him. Have I told you already about him? Well yes you are right me and the previous one broke up. Why? I guess he got scared when I rejected his idea of forever. How could you! ME?! Choosy?!! Naahh I am committed to that relationship, it's just that forever does not feel right with him. This new guy? Yeah I met during one of those get-togethers that Macy arranged. Have I told you about Macy? She has been our latest Admin Assistant for about 4 months already. Mind you that girl is so hot and very clever with party arrangement. Obviously most of our singles’ at work suddenly become “double” .. LOL.. I know right… That’s how I met him. Nah I’ll tell you some other time how we met. I want to know how you are. Where are you now? I hope you're okay. Did you marry the girl of your dreams? Do you have kids? How’s work? Elena!!! You’re early again?? And what is that face? Don’t tell me you’re “talking” to him again??? Burst Abby. Let her be, that’s the only solace she can have, what’s new with it? Kate? Asked Emma. And hello to you too!!! Where are the kids? No torture for me today?? As Emma giggled while kissing Abby and Emma. And Kate said we order for her first. She will come a bit later. When I told them what happened that day, I am glad there was no judgement passed, no question asked of what why when, they were just there to listen to me. They never said any word or sympathized with my feelings. They were just there listening. And because of that I was okay, that there were just minimal changes on me, and I was able to survive the college years. That is as if everything was set up to be that way. It’s still clear in my mind the day you said goodbye. The girls said I need to go to a mental institution while I'm in town. Because when I'm here I am like in another timeline. I know they meant well. What can they do? I like thinking about you specially if I am with them, it makes me feel it was real. That it was not my imagination that once, I met you. Maddox, I miss you. Hope you miss me too.
