Good Time Charlie, whose cowardly departure I celebrated last week (Gratitude Day 139), called again. This time, I spoke with him. He wanted to talk about "us!"
"Us?" I replied with genuine surprise.
"Yes, you and I."
"There is no you and I." Indifference resonated in my voice.
"I miss you, baby."
"After a whole year?"
"I missed you all the time..."
I didn't let him go on. I told him I was not the same woman he had left. I told him I was happy with my new life.
Once I put the phone down, I burst out laughing! No, it was not a "nervous" reaction! It was genuinely funny that he thought he could actually win me back. Gotta admire his CHUTZPAH!
I'm grateful for the phone call though, it cheered me up!
The month of May has been taxing. Although at my age, I should proceed with caution on the slippery passage of time and not wish away days of my life, I wished away a whole month with passion - too much emotional baggage attached to this 5th month of the year!
Thanks to a dear colleague who has organised a gathering at her place, I'll be gratefully celebrating the end of May in excellent company.
Have an uplifting long weekend, everyone!
