I hadn't picked up the scrap book again for months after I had left it on the bookshelf. But of course, every day that I had walked by it part of me was begging to open it back up andrelive those days we shared together. Those days I had shared with him.
The months went by in a blur, and life remained dull, as it had been ever since they exited my life. Summer turned into autumn and as I walked out the door of my apartment building I noticed the leaves had already begun changing colors, they had probably been like that for weeks, just going to show my lack of connection with the world around me these day.
I raced from beneath the covered area of the building and into my car just barely getting touched by the droplets of water that were plummeting from the sky. I had a funny feeling in my stomach as I drove along the busy streets, for some reason which I did not know, I was feeling slightly apprehensive. These feelings continued as I pulled up to the post office to check the mail box I had been renting out at the building.
I pulled my keys out of my overflowing handbag, closed my umbrella, and trudged through the door of the near empty building. I was in the normal unenthusiastic mood as I unlocked the mailbox which they had assigned to me. There was a huge cluster of wrinkled envelopes inside due to the fact that the last time I had visited had been almost a month ago. I stuffed the stack of letters under my arm, shut the mailbox door, and reopened the dripping umbrella as I strolled back into the wet abyss.
Flipping through the envelopes, I walked back towards my small Toyota. Bill after bill after bill, I never received anything exciting, aka. I never received anything from them, which was one of the reasons I never checked my mail anymore.
But as I flipped to the next article of mail I noticed a peculiar labeled envelope in my hand. To Miss Macy Anne Misa, was scrawled on the envelope above my address, but no name was listed in the corner. "Hmm, I wonder..." I mumbled to myself as I climbed into the car and slammed the door.
I sat in the parked car and began to open the sealed envelope. Slipping out a piece of neatly printed golden paper I began to read it quietly. "The Lucas family would like to invite you to-" I paused realizing what I had just read."The Lucas family?" I whispered in disbelief.
Butterflies exploded in my stomach. What if they were inviting me to a Lucas/ Malone/ Misa reunion? What if it was from him? Finally this day had arrived. I would give anything just to look into those eyes again, just to feel those arms around me one last time.
I couldn't tear my eyes from the piece of paper in my hands as I continued reading, picking up where I'd left off. "Would like to invite you to come share this special day with us as we join together Mr. Nicholas Lucas and Miss Amber Blake in marriage." My heart stopped.
Thanks for reading! Feel free to leave ideas for the following chapter or even your thoughts of this chapter.
I always love to hear your guys' feedback, so I look forward to seeing that.
