Second chance

I was in the middle of my science class when he came. Dressed in shorts and a navy blue v neck t- shirt panting out of breath, as if he had been running, causing the eyes of all the girls in my class to fall on him. He was handsome, I can't deny it but at the moment my mind was elsewhere, thinking: How did he find me and make it so far? After all he does live in Chile. Why is he here? Who am I taking about may you ask? My ex- boyfriend, the one that broke my heart with only a few words and walked out of my life completely. But out of all the questions that ran through my mind in those few seconds the one that stood out was: did he come because of me?

He stood there scanning the classroom until his beautiful, chocolate brown eyes landed on mine and he gave me a small smile. I steeled myself and waited to see how this would play out. He then walked up to the teacher and asked her if I could be excused for a moment. As he looked toward me, his eyes pleading, I began thinking about all the things he had done wondering if I should accept. Sometimes you heart decides situations like these for you and as I looked deeply into his eyes I knew that in my heart I had given him a second chance.
