Present Day
"Athena you ready?" I hear Kim as I exhale glancing in the mirror one last time. "Coming". It felt good to be ready to hangout with my friends. As always Kim was my empathic therapist. I told her everything that had happened and as always she answered with a simple 'Fuck him'.
I grab my bag and descend the stairs to see Kim wearing a midi skirt and blouse. "I'm so excited for dinner. Do you know how long I haven't enjoyed a night to myself. Mom life" I chuckle, still having this voice in head reminding me of Kai. I left all the drama in the past two years ago but it somehow felt like I was wrapped in it again.
I wanted to prove I was happy for him but instead he forced answers out of me. He looked at me with agony and my dumbass self couldn't stop remising our stupid kiss three years ago. I couldn't stop thinking about every laugh, every hug, every conversation. Forgetting Kai was like trying to learn something new; a slow and excruciating process.
But loving him felt like falling without safety net, fearful but thrilling. "Summer said, she'll meet us there" I state and Kim nods as we begin making our way to the door.
