“Hello, Aiden,” Meridian said.
Aiden’s smile left his face in exchange for a puzzled but intrigued gaze in his eyes. After a long pause he said, “Do I know you?”
Meridian gave out a coy smile and answered, “Maybe. And if you don’t, you soon will.” Meridian knew that she could not share her secret, and even worse, she couldn’t share with him how she knew him. One thing was certain, after looking into his eyes, she knew that whatever she had to go through to arrive at this moment was every bit worth of the struggles she had encountered.
Amy jumped between the two, interrupting Aiden’s longing gaze. “Hello, I am Amy, Aiden’s girlfriend. I can’t say that he has mentioned you at all. So, how do you know Aiden?”
