Day 4
He was stunned - the stranger in front of him looked exactly like the girl he'd been dreaming about. Definitely, she wasn't a girl anymore. This woman wasn't his girl. The years suited her, her complexion had grown fairer, her hair was longer than he remembered and she carried herself with a confidence that left every eyes on the room locked on her.
There was still some time before his nephew's plane landed, so he had sat by, watching as the passengers arrived at the airport. Never, ever, had he thought she would be there. Getting up from where he was sitting, he started to put himself on her way. Not wanting to disturb her, but still wanting to be recognized. His heart ached for a reencounter.
The brunette was on her cellphone, shouting something and looking somewhat distressed. She kept her eyes on the floor all the way to the front door of the airport. But just before she could make it, she almost clashed with a man that appeared right in front of her.
'Hey… watch where you're going!' She said, contouring the obstacle in her way, not even looking at his face.
His heart broke right there and then. Never in a million years had he dreamed that he had any heart left to be broken. But even scarier than that was the realization that after all this time, Brooke could still break his heart. Lucas was disappointed, life wasn't a fairytale, he should be glad he got to hear her voice and catch a glimpse of her, once again. It was too much to ask, for her to see him too; for her to… miss him too. He let out a sigh as a single tear escaped his eyes.
