She didn't see him as he entered the small café that was located near her terminal. She was to busy looking at the TV, muttering something about the world going to hell in a hand basket. He didn't recognize her at first; it was actually the muttering that made it clear to him who the woman in front of him was. The woman in front of him bore no resemblance to the girl he remembered her as, this woman had on a skirt and blouse that looked like would fit better in London then in the air port and her knee high boots looked like they were breaking her feet. But she looked comfortable and confident as apposed to the shy and timid girl she had once been.

He was debating on going up to her to see how her life has been treating her but as he took a step forward he stopped. She lifted her left hand to tuck a stray piece of hair behind her ears when he saw it. It was a very dazzling yet very simple ring set, the type of ring set that meant that she was happily married and he even ventured to guess she might have children also.

It was at this same time that a man walked up to her with three cups of coffee, two for her and one for himself. When she looked up at her bringer of coffee he saw that amazing smile that he always loved. The coffee bringer bent down and kissed her lightly on the lips, signaling to him that she was his wife and he was her husband. When the couple gathered their things from the table and started to walk towards the entrance he quickly sat at the nearest table, hiding his face from hers.

But then she stopped and looked directly at him. "Ace what is it?" her husband asked. She shook her head and walked towards her husband.

"Nothing, I just thought I saw an old friend."

He smiled when she said friend. As the couple walked away he whispered to himself, "I guess this means Mary doesn't hate me after all."
