Berkeley. He never thought he'd ever see that part of California. Actually he never thought he'd see any part of California ever again.
Well, now he was here, standing in front of a little nice restaurant he had decided to have lunch in.
It looks quiet and has class, he had thought. The perfect ambiance for a date. God, with that women he met a few weeks ago. She was already annoying, but looked good and didn't ask too many questions.
When he entered he immediately spotted her. He was shocked, that she was here but there was no doubt that it was she. The beautiful blonde women, with her back turned to him. No it wasn't Gillian, his new "girlfriend" as she put it, no it was a hearbreaking beautiful women. A women he never forgot. A women he fell in love with the second she was introduced to him. A women he thought about the last 6 years. 6 years. 6.
And he still remembered every moment he shared with her like it was yesterday.
The perfect women. The women with the same humor as him. The women that laughed at his stupid jokes. The women with the most beautiful and sincere smile in the world. The women he felt connected to. The women he was always attracted to. So was she.
Kirsten Cohen.
"Mummy want notha one!" Sophie whined, while sitting on her mother's lap.
"Baby we are waiting for daddy, if you eat another one you won't be hungry anymore and won't eat your lunch later" she replied, kissing her little girl's cheek.
"fine" Sophie replied, crossing her arms in front of her chest and pouting a little.
Kirsten giggled and shook her head.
"mummy?" Sophie asked suddenly.
"Yes honey?".
"toilet" Sophie said, jumping off of her mother's legs.
"uhh honey you gonna be okay?" Kirsten asked and saw her daughter giggle and nodd before she turned the corner and disappeard into the ladies.
Kirsten sighed and looked at her watch. Sandy where are you...
He saw her slightly turn her head. No, she shook her head. Was she on the phone? No. She was giggling. That gorgeous smile.
After a few moments of staring at her, he realised that he was still standing at the entrance and made his way to a table a few metres away from the table she was sitting at.
When he sat down and turned his head into her direction he saw a little blonde girl jumping off of her lap. What the hell...he thought. Maybe her grandchild, he tried to calm himself. No. No doubt that the beautiful little sweetheart a few seconds ago was her daughter. She is just as beautiful as her mother, he thought to himself.
He still wondered... Since when does Kirsten Cohen has a daughter? Did he miss something when he lived in Newport? Nope.
When he left, Kirsten and her husband were about to get divorced. Or at least he had hoped they were, but it looked pretty good for him. After that he heard she went to rehab. Ha she took my absense hard then. And rehab is almost always a marriage-killer. So did she marry again? Or just a new boyfriend? Well at least he hoped she finally got rid of ...Sandy. He was the reason why she didn't want him that night... .
Maybe she doesn't have a boyfriend at all (at least not anymore). He hoped so. He always liked kids. And he'd do everything for her. He kept daydreaming about her, hoping desperately that she'd fell for him all over again. He knew he could remind her of the good times they had shared if she let him. Maybe she had missed him too all over these years...
Kirsten was still waiting at the table when her phone rang.
"Kirsten Cohen" she answered it.
"Hey baby, it's me. I'm so sorry that i'm late" she heard the lovely voice of the love of her life answer her.
"Uhm where are you?" she asked softly.
"I'm stuck at work. We have a conference today i totally forgot about. If you want you can go home with Soph but if you wanna wait...im sure i won't be too long" Sandy answered, being sorry about missing their lunch date and desperately wishing he could be with his family.
"Of course i'll wait for you sweetie" Kirsten said, smiling slightly, when she remembered her husband and his outfit last night. Her favorite outfit on him. A bedsheet.
"Really?" he said happy "okay i'll hurry and try to be there as soon as possible. Love you".
"okay honey, drive safely! Love you too" she said and they both hung up their phones.
God, she was as sexy as ever. This perfect figure being clung to by her classy but sexy style of clothing. Even if he hadn't seen her face yet, he remembered every of her beautiful features. He sweet little nose. Her bright piercing blue eyes. He sweet, small, always smirking lips.He looked down her with long silky hair covered back.
Why did he leave? If he had waited a few month later, she would've fell for him and he had won her over. Once and forever. But he didn't and left. Inside he slepped himself for it.
Now she was on the phone. Her hard and professional features turning into a soft smile. Who was on the other end that made her smile? He got slightly angry but tried to focus on what she was saying. He couldn't make out much because she was still facing away from him and too far away.
After the call he heard her sighing and brushing some hair out of her face and behind her ear. Beautiful, simply beautiful he thought to him self as he looked at her in awe.
Now he just had to find an opportunity to introduce himself again...
"Muuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuummy look!" Sophie said, running towards her mother. Kirsten immediately snapped out of her trance and looked at her smiling daughter.
Sophie placed herself back on her mother's lap but this time facing her.
"Ohh my god" Kirsten said after gasping out loud.
"Am pretty?" Sophie said, brushing her hands through her mother's hair.
"Honey where did you find my lipstick?" Kirsten asked trying to sound serious but couldn't hide a giggle when she looked at her daughter's with lipstick covered lips, chin and cheeks.
"I pars!" Sophie explained.
"P...pars? What the..ahhh purse!" Kirsten guessed. Sandy always wondered how Kirsten always understood what their daughter was talking about. Maybe it was a Mother-Daughter-thing, Kirsten thought and smiled.
"yup yup" her daughter agreed.
Kirsten wanted to give her a lecture about not doing it ever again, but instead she pulled her into a tight hug and rested her cheek on Sophie's head, smiling.
"yes sweetie, you are beautiful" she added after a few moments, which caused Sophie to smile widely.
He watched her daughter jumping back on her mother's lap and giggled when he saw her face. He kept staring at the to of them and suddenly got a fright when someone tapped him slightly on the shoulder. He almost jumped out of his seat and turned around. Gillian.
"Heeeeeey Tiger, why are you so jumpy. Did u forget that we've a date" she asked smiling and brushed her with pink lipstick covered lips over his cheek. He immediately pushed it off, not wanting to be emberrassed by a pink spot on his cheek all day.
"No.Hi." he answered emotionless. Tiger. God, i know her for 3, 4 weeks and she already found an irritating nickname.
"Soooooo did you order yet?" she asked and continued, not waiting for his answer "Hey waiter, woooooooho waiter.." she shouted loudly before he could stop her by placing his hand over her lips, not wanting Kirsten to notice them sitting here.
"Shh! No i didn't" he scolded her.
"Fiiiiiiiiiiine" she sighed.
When a waiter arrived at their table she started "Fiiiiiiinally, so okay i want..." she said and he stopped paying attention at some point, and slightly turned around in his seat so he could see the love of his life , sitting only a few metres way.
How am i supposed to get to talk to her...
"Mummy w daddy?" Sophie asked, still cuddling with her mama [authors note: Ally that's for you xD lool.
"At work baby, but he'll be here soon" she explained.
"Can go out , soph wann play!" Sophie asked looking into her mother's eyes.
Kirsten thought about what she meant. Can we go outside and that she wants to play. Outside... Kirsten got what her daughter was talking about. Outside to the playground.
"Uhmm sure baby, we'll wait there for daddy" Kirsten asked, grabbing her purse in one hand and placing her daughter back onto the floor and taking her hand in her other.
They made there way over to the door...
Where is she going, he asked himself shocked. She can't leave. I'll never see her again. I have to do somethi... but his thoughts were interrupted by an annoyed "HELLOOOOO? Tiger what do you want? The pinguin here " gesturing to the waiter "is waiting" from Gillian.
"Uhh i donno, just... order something for me, i need a little fresh air and will be right back" he said, quickly following the gorgeous blondes outside.
He left an open mouthed Gill sitting on the table and went outside. He saw them crossing the little way in front of the restaurant and them making their way to the little playground where Kirsten sat down AGAIN WITH HER BACK FACING HIM, and Sophie running around happily.
He leaned himself against a tree and just watched her. How on earth am i supposed to talk to her...he asked himself again when he saw Sophie suddenly turning around, looking straight into his eyes, smiling and making her way running over to him...damn.
xxxxxxxxxxxOMG WHAT WILL HE DO? WHY'S SOPHIE RUNNING TOWARDS HIM???????? WILL KIKI SEE HIM???????????????xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
"YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY" she said when she made her way to the dark haired man next to the big tree.
Kirsten watched her daughter and followed her with her eyes. Where was she going?, she asked herself and she finally turned completely around on the bench to look at the person her daughter was so excited about...
