"He sent a text."
"Who?"
"That man. The boyfriend of that girl."
"Ooh..."
"He said sorry."

"Okey..."
"He asked me to forgive him. And also said that he remembered me while he listened to a song. A song that I gave for him, he said."
"What did he mean?"
"I don't know. I also don't remember the song that he mentioned."
"Hmm..."
"I feel that something's happened. But I won't ask him. And I have a strong feeling that he'll text me again."
"Let's see."

And yes dear, he texted me again. Like he used to. And somehow I know that he misses me and the old us.

"I need to see you again
On the dark side my friend
On the dark side ..."
