The return



“I don´t understand. We was going to meet in that place we always meet in the woods. But you never came. I waited for hours before I rid home again. Why did you not come? Have you got something else to do? I feel so lost, I don´t want to believe you are gone just that you will be back tomorrow and tell me what happened.

Or have you found someone else? I hope to see you soon my love.”

 

((This is a diary note from the day Caithrin noticed that Milcroft was gone))


After a four years with a life that had a lot of changes. This young woman have tired to live her life but always know there is something missing, or someone. This is a story about Caithrin and the day that made her life and her self hole again.

 

It´s a terrible evening, this last days she have been fighting with her best friend and her fiance. No she feel so alone. She did love this man but she have notice that he did not trust her enough and she decided to leave this before it´s to late. Now she standing by the fire in the Inn again as so many time before. The heat is warm her face and hands, the smell of weed and alcohol is strong. Peoples are talking loud, someone is laughing. She close her eye´s and let her mind flow and a lot of memories is reminding her. She start to think may be it was a mistake to leave home that day. As she think like this she feel a cold wind in her neck as the door to the Inn is open again, she turn her head to look. There is a muscular man standing just inside the door. When she look at him she see he is not someone she use to see in here but it is something. She let that thought go for now, her eye´s was now back to look at the flames. Suddenly she hear a familiar voice saying “Caith, is that you?” She immediately turned her head to the voice, it was the man that she had looked at just a few seconds ago. Now he was much closer an the flames lighted up his face. “Could it be?” she thought for herself. It felt like the time had stopped as she stood there looking at this man. It was like there was no other around them anymore. Then she remember, that hair, the chin and those eye´s. “Milcroft.....is that you?" she asks. And when he answer her hole body start to shake but she only smiles big and try not to cry. It the man she once love so much. He is back. She just looked at him just talking she did not know what she was saying because she could not believe he was back. There was so many questions that see needed answers to. And they started to talk and then he tell her that he left a note to her when he did left. Her anger start to raise in her chest again. She know that her father must have found the note and destroyed it. They continued to talk and he told her that he now slept in the Inn. She felt that she needed to give him a better place to stay, but she know that her house was to small. Now she was already thinking about moving so she contacted her friend to borrow some money. They found a big home with two bedrooms, after they moved in all there furniture she gave him an massage. She saw he needed a good sleep so she focused to make his body relaxed. When he fall a sleep she looked at him for a moment. “How is this possible?”, “He love me, Do I still love him as much as I did?”. Her mind was just rushing fast, but she suddenly smiles warmly. She knew, she love him just as much as she did before he left. With tears in her eye´s she walk in to her new bedroom and fall a sleep with a smile on her face and with a calm feeling again. Then thing she have been missing for so long has returned.
