Wow, thank you guys for your reviews! i thought that this idea would suck but i think i was wrong. thank you! so here's the next chapter. it's still not very long...actually it is very short again, but i promise that the next chapters will be longer than this. it's really hard to write from and old mans/womans POV and i don't know if i'm doing a good job with that...and i'd apreciate new reviews! thank you for your support! lol.

PS: i hope i was able to show the ambivalent emotions. :)
What? No this can't be true. No way. No no no no.
'I'm sure this is his cousin or maybe a person not related to him', she thinks desperately.
'How can that be true? I haven't seen him in...63 years! 63! That's a long time. No, that can't be true. Why should he be here after all these years? Why should I meet him right here? In this place? No this is not him! It can't be him!'
She doesn't dare to look around to face him. Her heart has tightened at his name. She hasn't heard this name in like forever and it just can't be true that this is HIM.
"Miss Gilmore? Would you come in? It's teatime!"
He stands right there at the door as he hears her name. No it isn't her. It can't be her. Instead of looking around he moves on and on and sits down at a table far away from the door. His back turned to the door. He doesn't want to face the person who's maybe her. No it can't be her! He is here, because his son wanted it and not because fate has lead him here.
'This is her cousin or anyone else, called like her. That can't be her. If it were her, she would not be called Gilmore. I'm sure she married a rich guy and changed her name. No it can't be her.'

She has to go to her room. She has to think about everything.
"I don't feel good. I'll go and get some sleep." The nurse nods at her.
'What if it is him? What if fate lead us here? Maybe that's my last chance to get to know all the reasons why our relationship failed? Just if it IS him. But when I see him, there won't be these incredible brown eyes, looking at me. I'm sure about that. The man has green eyes. Yeah that must be the truth. Because it is not him.' She tries to convince herself that he is not the guy she loved once, who broke her heart so badly. She tries to believe that the whole evening. And her mind starts believing this, but deep inside her heart she knows that this guy is still her first love. That he was the one she couldn't stop thinking about, even in her mariage. And she was still thinking about him after getting divorced and after being sent here but if anyone had asked her, she never would have admitted that she has heard his name before.

What if it is her? What if this is the woman he always loved? Maybe this was a sign for him to make up all his mistakes he had done in the past. But what should he do now? How could he be sure that this was really her? He hasn't seen her and it can't be her. It just can't be her. So why should he suddenly think about her now?
The truth was, that he never stopped thinking about her. She was always in his thoughts and he always wanted to know, if she really became a correspondent like she always wanted to be.
He felt a bit uncomfortable knowing, that he was with her in the same building after all these years. 'But why should I think about that now? The last time I saw her was 63 years ago and I'm not going to see her again, and that's fine. I have accepted my fate and I know I'll never see her again. So why should I feel uncomfortable?'
But he knew the reason. Deep in his heart he knew that this woman was the love of his life and that this was going to be his last chance.
To be continued...
