Can we meet ?

"Merry Christmas" , a text made its way from Jada to his beloved ex-husband Michael. Now, to some people their relationship seemed pretty weird , they asked themselves -

"Who still texts their husband after divorce?"

"Why don't they just get back together if they can't stay away from each other?"

But although Jada and Michael had broken up ,and had nothing keeping them together anymore ,like a child , it never stopped them from talking to each other , and if it were actually up to them they would've never broken up. but because of life and its challenges ,the couple had to separate. Jada and Michael broke up 5 years ago , Michael had to Move to New York after finding a Job as an Architect while Jada had already found a great job as an Attorney in China , Jada did not want to take risks like moving to a new place and trying to find a new job, she knew she would never find a job as great as the one she had in China. On the other hand , Michael had been unemployed for a year after their graduation, and this job in New York was going to be his big break so he couldn't risk not accepting this job . so the two both had no intention of making such sacrifices for the other ,which led to their divorce.

"Promise you will text me when you get there , never forget about me." said heartbroken Jada as she was saying her last goodbyes to her leaving ex-husband.

"I promise Jada , you're my first love , there's no way I would ever forget about you. and I also promise you that one day , we will cross paths again ,because you and I are right for each other , it is the timing that is wrong . Take care." He said as he got inside the plane to New York . And that was the end of their relationship or marriage.

So ever since Michael moved to New York, He has been texting with Jada on Instagram and he texts on every holiday to wish her a good one, so does Jada. But on this specific day , Jada messaged Michael to wish him a Merry Christmas but to her surprise , Michael did not answer.

She thought that Michael had maybe found himself a new woman whom he was probably spending Christmas with .

"it's okay Jada , Don't cry, you know Michael was not going to wait for you forever . he deserves to be happy , and you're happy for him , You know you're happy for him Jada."Said Jada to herself silently, trying to convince herself that it wasn't so painful that Michael did not answer to her text and the possibility of him having found a new woman. Jada somehow still had hope that one day she and Michael would get back together again , get married, have kids and live happily ever after. she still believes that she and Michael are soulmates who just happened to meet at the wrong time.

After a few hours , just as she was eating her Christmas dinner alone ,like each and every year since Michael left , she was disturbed by the sound of a message from her phone ,"Tittt titt" it rang.

It was a text from Michael , before she could even open the text , her face had already worn a smile . However , this time Michael was not wishing Jada a merry Christmas, he was asking her if they could meet. "Can we meet , it's urgent." the text read.Jada wondered what would be so urgent that would make him leave New York just to meet with Jada , she wondered what he had wanted or if he had come to stay forever. She also thought about herself , if she was really ready to face Michael again , to relive all the pain , to have to see all those memories they had created before , she wondered if she was really strong enough for this
