Early Afternoon“EDI, IS THAT YOU?”
I was frozen in place, staring at the young man in front of me. No, it couldn’t be! I’d been so lucky this far, why did I have to run into him now? Almost two million people living in Bucharest. The two of us ran in very different circles. I thought I was safe from him. Not anymore.
“Cat got your tongue?” Robert teased, punching my shoulder. “What’s going on with you, man? It’s been what, two years?”
I sighed and nodded. “Yeah, something like that. I’m good, thanks. And you?”
“Good, good. Wow, this is quite the blast from the past,” he said, chuckling. His eyes roamed over me, up and down, again and again, his eyes turning darker with every pass.
“Yeah. It was nice seeing you.” I gave him a tight smile, hoping he’d say his goodbyes and let me go.
