He was looking at the time as his heart raced furiously, wondering not, to text or call. Finally mustering up enough courage, he start hitting the keypads on the phone with great anticipitation. The message was sent, 2 thousands miles away from the destination.
The message was picked up, and he recieved a reply, much to his relieved and joy. His heart skipped abit and pained. She had hurt her feet from wearing wrong shoes from window shopping. He wished he could help ease the pain, he wished he could be there massaging her aching leg. All he could do now is offer words of comfort thru the phone. She say she would call.
Time was ticking..... He decided against waiting.... he picked up the phone and dialled the number, all too familiar number, one that does not need reminding of.
The dial tone came thru.. "Hello...?"
"What do you think of me and you, besides all that missing me and thinking of me stuff?"
"Well... "He stuttered, shyness came in, "well, you know that i still miss you even after all that had happen, I still love you even all that had happen, and I cant stop thinking about you everyday, everytime. You are just beside me when I do my things, it just all so real. Thing is I still want you. I would love to have you to take me back. I want to take care of you. I want to take care of you forever. I want to pray for your mum's and sister's salvation. This is before even we are not together. That is something that I wanted to do for you. Now, all I can only ask is prayer to God. Now I have do His work and let Him do my work. .."
"So now.." He continued, "I just have to wait till I come back."
"Its that what you wanted to hear from me? about me and you?"He asked with a tinge of hope..
" yes.. that is what i want to hear.. "she replied.. "Its late, you go and rest now, wear socks and more clothing, drinks lots and take care, i got to prepare my stuff."
His heart jumped for joy.. "she still cares for me!"he thought..
"Ok dear, you sleep early too and I will message you again. Good night!"he replied cheerfully yet reluctantly, as he did not wish to end the conversation, but he knew he had too.
"Sure! love to see you messages.. "came the reply.. "Good night then.."
"Good night!"... the phone went dead.
He went to sleep with his head in the clouds. He wished that she would be by his side again.
He put his head on the pillow and smiled.
So here's your holiday, hope you enjoy this time, you take it all away..
It was mine, so when your are dead and gone..
Hope you remember this night twenty years now lost,
its not right
