They're all from Cole. He's like my brother, I've known him since we were little kids. His mom was my mom's maid of honor at her wedding and vice versa. I haven't seen him in a while, since his dad got a new job and they moved away. I decide to read them, since I'm the last one up, with Carla and Alex both sleeping on the couch. I rest my head on Alex's lap and open messages.
Hey Krista
You'll never guess what I have to tell you
I'm back!
My dad quit his job so we moved back
Same house too

I wanted to make sure u were ok
Hello?
Krista?
He's back! This is the greatest news I've heard all week.
Instead of texting him, I give him a call. I'm unaware of how late it is, until the 3rd ring, when he picks up.
I tell him everything, and he does the same. We pick up like he never left. There wasn't that awkward barrier between us. Gosh I missed him. It was like a family reunion with my long lost brother. I couldn't wait until Sunday night when i could see him.
