Together Forever

Bright sunlight enters the bedroom through the small gaps of the window and falls on my eyes, making me squint. I cover my eyes with my hands till I am adjusted to the bright light. Getting up, I stretch my arms lazily and throw my hair into a messy bun. Then I remember I have to go to work.

How much I hate mornings!

I get up and make my way towards the glass window. Shifting the curtains to one side, I open the window, and right away warm sunlight fills the room. I look outside and take in a deep breath, letting the fresh morning breeze wash away my grogginess.

After a long time, I am feeling relaxed today. A havoc of misunderstanding was going on which is clear now. Leah and Nick are together, years of waiting for each other are over. And I also made everything clear to Ethan. He isn't mad at me anymore. Though I still need many answers from him.

The event of last night flies into my mind and involuntarily my hand reaches out for my face. I softly touch my cheek where he kissed me and a faint smile falls on my lips. I can still feel his lips here. It was totally unexpected. But it happened. And it made me so happy, strangely happy.

I shake my head to change my thoughts and enter the washroom. Brushing my teeth, I take a quick shower and come out, wiping my hair with the towel. I dry my hair fast so that it doesn't remain wet and I don't get a cough. Otherwise, dad will throw his work into the dustbin and rush to me. I enter the closet and rake through the clothes. Taking a short-sleeved black top and black skinny jeans, I changed my clothes. I wear a plain black suit jacket over it and approach the dressing table.

Combing my hair, I let it flow down and wear a light red lipgloss. I grab my wristwatch and put it on. Taking my purse, I check myself one last time in the mirror. Ready for another busy day.

Walking out of my bedroom, I see Nick and Leah's rooms locked. They came home at midnight, must be so tired. I decide not to wake them up and leave a note.

I sit on the couch and start writing,

I'm going to work. You two came home late at night so I didn't wake you up. Enjoy your day together!

I chuckle and place the note on the table when my phone buzzes in my purse. I take out my phone to see a message from Ethan.

I'm waiting outside of your house. Come down.8

What? What is he doing here? I scowl and reply,

Why are you here?

He replies,

I came to pick you up. We are heading to a meeting.

But I have my car. He didn't need to come.

I can go there myself. You don't need to pick me up.
