After 3 years.....
Time moves slowly but passes quickly. Now I am a successful designer. If I turn back and look at my life I can say I am proud of myself.
"Rise and shine sleeping beauty. Do you know that you sleep like the dead." My best friend Katherine yelled at me from downstairs.
I groaned "Five more minutes. I.want.sleep" I spoke in my best zombie-like voice.
"Ur currently on alarm clock number 5. You also have a meeting to attend at 10"
I looked at the clock on my nightstand. Crap, why didn't I wake up.
She was right I sleep like the dead. I only have an hour to get ready.
I rolled out of my warm and comfortable bed only to land on the hardwood floor with a loud thud.
Katherine screech from downstairs "What happened. Don't tell me u broke something."
"Keep it up, Kathy. Don't ask if your friend was the thing that fell and broke."
I went to take a shower and did my basic morning routine. And then I wore a white blouse and pencil skirt to look presentable for the meeting.
When I walked downstairs I could smell a delicious aroma filling the room.
I should admit, having a professional chef as a roommate has its own benefits.
Katherine and I have been besties since childhood. After my parent's death, when I was alone she was there for me. She has always been like a sister to me.
"Look who finally decided to show up. Did u wake up because of this" She chuckled pointing to the pancakes.
"Maybe, maybe not. You know that I am not a morning person right." I grumble. "Anyway, what is your plan today."
"I am going to try a new recipe with my chef and.." She paused for a brief moment.
"Just spit it out Kathy," I asked her raising an eyebrow.
"Well do you know about the college reunion. I was wondering if you..."
"Of course I would love to go" I cut her short before she could complete her sentence.
"Are you sure about that?" She asked me worried.
"Look, Kathy, I am not the same person you meet at college. I have changed and I can handle myself" from seeing him.
Lots had changed after he, who shall not be named left me.
I even have a boyfriend now or you could change that to had boyfriends. I never last in a relationship that long.
I have certainly moved on in life but still, something was missing. No one has made me laugh as he did. No one has understood me as he did. It was like, a part of me is missing.
I can't even understand the fact that how can I love him even though he never loved me.
"Ok then" Katherine interpreted my thoughts "I don't want to hold you. You have a meeting to attend."
"Oh right, crap. Boss lady is going to butcher me."
