Two days

My eyes flew open and my head turned sharply to my left. I searched the hallway, my gaze landed on someone far down the hallway, and my jaw dropped. Mavy? What? How? Where has she been? I haven’t seen her once since I arrived and I admit I was worried for her. My eyes start to water and I can’t help but start crying.

The last time I saw her, we hadn’t cleared the air and I kept how I felt to myself. We said we were okay but there was a distance between us that stopped me from reaching out to her and I’m assuming she felt it too because she didn’t reach out to me either.

It felt like we separated during bad times with the bitter taste of Shane on our tongues. I hadn’t stopped wondering about her. Seeing her here, now, after all this time, the dam broke and the tears flowed.
