I may have unfinished business after all, as ghosts from my past come rushing back...let me explain...
On Valentine's Day of 2003, I met a girl named Carmenn. At first, I just thought she was some young girl who thought I was worth flirting with, but I decided to talk to her and ended up very quickly falling for her.
We were only together for a short time, but for the only time in my life, I felt content. All the bullshit in my life completely went away when I was with her.
She broke up with me, and I only ever saw her a couple of times. One time, I decided to say what was always on my mind (that she made me happy) for my own sort of closure, then promptly left the building after saying that. I never saw her again...until tonight (Good storytelling, huh?)
She was happy and friendly and we started chatting and of course the past came up. She said that she regretted breaking up with me at the time, because she realized later that she could've used the rock in her life. She also said that when I told her that she made me happy, that it caused trouble with her that I had not intended.
Shortly after talking with her, before the past came up, I had already begun to fall for her again. Her friends, however, were persistent on preventing us some time alone to talk...I did however managed to give her both my number and an old momento. See, I tend to latch on to certain items and they become a part of me. One was a necklace, the other was a ring. Shortly before the break-up, I gave her the ring as a symbol of how much I cared about her, but afterwards asked for it back. Tonight I gave it back while telling her that whether this is a chance for a new beginning or we never see each other again that she should have it. It would have been one of the most important moments of the night, me vulnerable, her on the brink of tears, if her friends hadn't interuptted again and kept us from having a moment alone until we had to go separate ways.
So now to see how this goes....
