Chapter 35 - 17

Time is a funny thing, Ethan.

It gives zero crap about anyone as it goes by.

I think the last time I saw you was

a month b a c k.

In that dinner with

c h a m p a g n e that didn't sparkle

and p l a t i n u m b a n d s that

shone too much.

But I did see you everyday.

In my dreams.

In my memories.

In me.

On t.v.

I'm glad I saw you on t.v. all those

months back.

With your happy smile and

skillful hands.

I'm glad you left your jock ways

and became a chef.

I'm glad I found you immediately when I searched.

I'm glad I didn't see the lights when I crossed the road.

And I'm glad that even after eight years,

you recognised me.

Bloody face or not.

Hell, you have a fiancée.

Yes, I'm hurt.

Sure, I hate everything.

 But Ethan, I'm not sure what to feel anymore

 What I want.

 Really, Time is a funny thing. And a bit stupid.
