Steve finished it all off with Lynn, and in fact was relieved. Not that he did not like her company, but it was not love. He felt alone right beside her. Steve was in the living room, with Eddie lying at his feet when the doorbell rang.
"You again, Danny?" "Steve, we need to talk."
- In between!
Danny came in, caressed Eddie, and said, "Well, Steve, I'm seriously worried about you. You have not been well either physically or mentally. The staff is worried about you. Even Kamekona says you do not show up anymore. And our restaurant? You are not interested.
Steve sits down, puts his hands on his face, takes a deep breath and says, -Danny, I have a transplanted liver, I need medicine until the end of my life, I'm with radiation poisoning, and the worst: I've lost the love of my life, can you understand that? I have no one to share my joys and sorrows with, I do not have anyone to plan a future with, I have no children Danny ... have you ever imagined your life without Grace and Charlie? I did not think much about it. Maybe even for this reason Catherine left. When she left the Navy, she said she wanted to go out to prepare for things to come. I think she was talking about marriage, children, and I was insensitive to her.
"But you would propose."
"But she did not know that, Danny!" Steve said nervously. Every day I hear her voice in my head saying: I would have said yes! She would have said YES! She would have said yes and I let her go again. I'm an idiot! Steve shouted.
"I have something to tell you, but I actually promised not to tell you ..."
-Talk Danny, soon!
-Catherine is back on the island!
Steve was stunned by the news. What? Did I hear you right? Are you telling me that Catherine is in Hawaii?
"Yeah, and that day you thought you were going crazy, you were not, you really did see Catherine.
-What? How ... how do you know that? When did she come back?
"More than a week ago.
"And why did you tell me just now?"
"I only found out two days ago, when I went to take Grace to that party. It was in Aina Haina. I passed Catherine's old house and saw the Chevy in the garage. I thought it was strange because she would never sell that car and on the impulse I went there and knocked on the door and she picked me up.
Steve was stunned by the news. What he most wanted in life happened. What would he do now?
"And why did she make you promise not to tell me?"
"She thinks you really went ahead and is happy with Lynn and she said she would not go into your life again because you deserve to be happy.
"And what did you say to her?"
"I said Lynn at least does not break her heart all the time."
"You had to tell me Danny!" On the same day!
-Ah yes. And what would you do? Run into her arms as if nothing happened? Where was she when you almost died and needed a transplant? Where was she on the nights you had a bad time because of the radiation? She left you in the worst Steve ...
"Danny, my love life is none of your business. And what I'm going to do is of no interest to anyone. Close the door when you leave! Steve said, taking the keys from his truck.
Meanwhile, at Catherine's house ..
- Hello, Kono? Hi, my friend!
- Catherine! How are you, sister? "
I'm fine, Kono, I'm back in Hawaii. It was very bad to come back and not find you, like in the old days. And you? Are you happy with your new job?
"I'm happy, Catherine, but I also miss Hawaii and the Ohana. Then, you tell me, and you and Steve?
"There is no longer me and Steve, Kono. He's with Lynn.
"Do not be silly, Catherine. Steve does not love Lynn. He did not even introduce her to us. He was just trying to fill the void you left, but he could not.
- I do not know , Kono ... in Morocco I told him that I would have said yes, and even then he let me go.
-But you did not see the sadness in his face as he seemed to want to hold the plane so he would not take off. Have not you been looking for him since you arrived?
-No kono. To find Steve and to say what? Find him and find Lynn at his house again? My heart would not hold Kono.
- "Catherine, I had everything to give up on Adam, and I did not give up. Do not give up on Steve. Think about it. I have to go, Catherine. It was very nice talking to you. We'll talk later again.
Bye!
- Bye Kono. It was very nice talking to you too.
Catherine was thinking of everything Kono said when they knocked on the door. Who will be at this time ... will it be Danny again? She thought.
