What Once Was Can Be AgainUpdated at Sep 13, 2022, 21:28
Prologue:
"Do you think it's a coincidence that the two of us ended up here together after more than 20 years, or do you think it's fate," Madison asked shyly?
"I guess I never really believed in fate before. I always thought that we controlled our own future. But being here with you now, knowing that this was completely out of our control, it definitely makes me consider the alternative," Benjamin said softly, as he looked into Madison's big, beautiful, brown eyes!
"You know me, I've always been a believer that things happen for a reason. If it's meant to be, it will be," Madison said with a glimmer of light upon her lips!
"Now I remember the reason why I loved you so much back then," he whispered and stated at her intently!
"We were so young! In one way it seems like forever ago, and in the same realm, being here with you now, it feels like it could have been yesterday," she added with a slight smile, as she bit he lip!
"I know what you mean! So much has changed for the both of us. We're both married, we both have families of our own, but yet in this moment, knowing that we are here and we are together, practically stranded for an unknown amount of time, it's almost as if nothing has really changed for us at all," he poured out his thoughts! Benjamin then reach down and grabbed her hand and held it within his own, as he looked back to stare contently into the eyes of his former lover, his very first love, and at one time, his very best friend!
