New leaf and second probabilities.

As quickly as I get to the nook of the block, I pull my telephone out once more, and browse the textual content Marina despatched:

I used to be mad.

Fuck it. I cease overthinking and textual content her again: And also you’re not now?

I’ll stand right here all fucking day if I get the possibility to talk to her in any manner.

One other message arrives:

I used to be additionally harm.

Me:

I fucked up. I’m sorry.

Fifteen. Thirty. Forty. Each second that passes with out listening to from her is fucking torture.

Marina:

Don’t fuck up once more.

Me:

I gained’t.

As determined as I’m to see her, I can’t make this about me. The breakup was finished selfishly. The make-up should be about righting the wrongs if given the possibility.

Ten minutes move and I hear nothing. Do I textual content her once more? Or let it lie for now? Do I yank the door she cracked open or bide my time? Fuck.

Apparently, persistence is a advantage.

However I’ve by no means been the virtuous sort.

Tucking the telephone in my again pocket, I begin residence, chalking the day as much as an excellent one general.

“Money?”

I cross the road towards my constructing and see Harbor standing subsequent to certainly one of his million-dollar customized automobiles that constructed his enterprise. At some point, he’s going to provide me one. Till then, I’ll simply admire his. I stroll the perimeter and squat to get an excellent have a look at the grill. “Good.”

“Thanks.”

However Harbor doesn’t make home requires enjoyable, so I step again on the sidewalk and ask, “What brings you by?”

Dipping contained in the automotive, he grabs one thing off the seat. “I wished to provide you this.”

I take it, turning it over to see what the occasion is listed on the entrance. “A ticket?”

“It’s a brand new play opening tomorrow. I’m a donor, so I get extras.”

“Are you asking me out?” I can’t maintain a poker face and begin laughing.

He chuckles. “Lark goes with me, however we got a 3rd. Sadly, it’s for standing room solely.”

“Finest method to see a play.” Marina’s phrases come again like they have been yesterday.

“I didn’t take you for a fan of Broadway?”
