Sorry that it took me so long! I had a lot of stuff to do but now, during the hollidays, I will try to write more often.
A few days after the wedding, Aiden and Steve where sitting in a bar together, drinking some beers.
"It had been so strange! He was there in her apartment and she was kind of dazed when she opened the door. And these strange allusions of this guy. And his grin… I really don't know what all this is about. Whenever I ask her, she evades, she won't even tell me his name. But she's so vacantly, she's not herself anymore. I just wanna know what all this is about…."
"How did he look? I haven't met a lot of Carries friends but Miranda always told me a lot of things so perhaps I know him."
"Hmm, How did he look? Tall, dark hair, I think he was good looking. Expensive suit. We met him once before at the furniture show. I think the woman he had with him back there was his wife… Wait, Carrie told me her name. I think it was… Natasha, yeah, that's it."
Steve took a deep breath. "Oh."
"What's that about? You know him? Who is this bastard?"
" I don't know if you really want to hear about it, my friend."
"Fuck! Tell me what you know!"
"Ok, Ok. Unless I am very much mistaken it was Mr. Big who was standing in front of you."
"Mr. Big? Is that his name or is it because of…" Aiden paused
"No, I thought the same at the first moment but than Miranda told me that Carrie called him that because she thought that he was so out of her league. She was absolutely fallen for him. And she went through a lot of things because of him. They have been together for a long time but he never told her how much she meant to him. That's why she broke up with him the first time."
"There has been more than one time?"
"Yeah, they got back together after some month and he seemed to try harder. But than he had to go to Paris because of work and didn't want her to come with him and give up her own life. That's why she broke it off the second time. It hit her hard, the girls even send her to a psychiatrist cause they couldn't hear anymore about him. Last summer they went to the Hamptons and there she met him again. The Paris deal fell through but he brought a good looking, 25-years old girl with him which he married after a few month. Her name was Natasha, even if the girls preferred to call her the idiot stick-figure with no soul. That was when Carrie hit rock bottom cause he didn't want to commit to her when they had been together. All four of them wanted him to go to hell. But the girls always sensed that Carrie didn't really get over him. They used to compare him to Niagara Falls."
"Wow, that sounds really bad!"
"I'm so sorry man!"
