She jumped out of her seat and straight into my arms.
"What are you doing here? I thought you went to see Sadie."
"I went to see all of my old friends and now I am here to spend time with my girl. That is if she isn’t ready to kick my ass?"
Her face lit up. She was strikingly beautiful but in that moment all that I could describe her as was mine. Sabrina grabbed my face making sure our eyes were connected when she said, "Oh the ass kicking is coming for sure " she pecked my lips again and with tears in her eyes said, ”I’m just so glad you came back home to me.” I have never been so happy in my life. “There is no place I would rather be. It feels so good to be home.”
I know this wasn't the book you were expecting. It wasn't a story but more of my explanation. I may have hidden my feelings a little too well for Sadie to explain them properly. I made a lot of mistakes but life wasn't easy for me to deal with at the time. I waged a lot of wars within myself and lost what I thought was the one girl that understood me most. But I was so wrong. What I lost was meant to be. What I gained was the most amazing girl that I will never deserve, but hopefully always sticks around, and never discovers that. I wanted a second chance at my youth but I gained a second chance at happiness. For a while all I felt was what I lost. Now I only look forward to what I have to gain.
Life can be filled with ups and downs but if I learned anything, it was to never second guess your heart. Life doesn’t wait around for you to figure it out and always appreciate what you have while you have it, not later. Well, that's it. Thanks for taking the time to hear me out. Wish me luck that I don't screw it all up again.
