Love Always Find Its Way......
#WritcoStoryChallenge
The setting was perfect. Candlelight, polished cutlery and a single rose set in a delicate vase at each table. Being just a waitress, of course at a grand restaurant, I never asked for more. Life was good even with simple things. But little did I knew, that, this night will be changing my life forever.
Around 6:30 pm people started coming, some with their dates, some with families. And some even alone, of course they went straight to the bar.
But, between all those people, a certain person caught my attention. I didn't think much and started taking orders and eventually serving them. When I went to a table, across his, I saw that he was working on his laptop, and I thought"Who in this world works so focusingly in such a romantic diner?". Coming back, I noticed that he was well built, wore a black suit with a tie, and is faringly handsome. For no reason, I felt that my heart skipped a bit. I don't know why, but I feel like, I had known him for a very long time. Surprisingly, he caught me staring but called me to take his order. I went and asked for his order, but, after not hearing anything I lifted my head and saw he was already staring at me. I saw something flicked in his eyes like fixed emotion, but, I asked "Sir, what would you like to have for dinner?". He, instead said,"Angel, long time, no see." I choked on my saliva, and looked into his eyes. They were "his" eyes, which were deep blue like ocean; I scanned his face, "his" lips, that seems to be soft and light pink, "his" nose, sharp like a glistening knife, and "his" jawline, always sharp as before. I couldn't believe my eyes, but, that was definitely HIM. Only he called me 'Angel' instead of Angelina. But, how it could be him? How?
After sometime, he said,"Please, sit down. Please, hear me out, once." I sat down in front of him, and there he was! My best friend forever, My love, My everything, My Caleb, sitting in front of me, as if he didn't leave me alone 8 years ago.
Gaining enough courage and looking into his eyes, I asked,"Why? Why are you here?" I didn't even realised that, tears started flowing out like a never ending river. He gently wiped out my tears and said in a whisper, "I'm here for you, to never leave you alone again, and I want you." " I LOVE YOU, Angel, and this is the truth."
I couldn't bre more happy to listen that, but, there are somethings I wanted answers for. Flinching away, I asked, "Why did you leave me alone then ?"
He looked up to me, with worry and agony in his eyes, and said, " I guess, I have a lot of explaining to do, Angel."
