After 4 long years, the right time has finally come. They were both excited to see each other again. It felt like coming home. She felt like going back to being the young girl who hasn't cried pool of tears. He felt like it's the first time he secretly took her out for a date.
Everything was still familiar. From the way they talked to each other, the way they laughed together, to the way they acted naturally in each other's company. Everything's the same. Everything was so right just like how they used to be.
"I know sorry isn't enough to mend the broken heart I've caused you long time ago..." he reached for her hands, hoping he still has a place in her heart. "But please, forgive me. I was a fool for finding someone else but ended up looking for you in her. I was a fool for cheating on you but ended up missing you. I was a fool for seeking the better when I already have the best. Please let me make it up to you. Please, take me back."
She smiled at him ever so genuinely and felt the heaviest weight on her was finally lifted. "Your sorry is long overdue. But I loved you that's why I forgave even without hearing an apology. Being with you today brought back many memories: of how happy, comfortable and contented I was with you."
She looked at their hands perfectly entwined before continuing.
"I dreamed of this to happen. I dreamed of you coming back to me, saying you still love me and that you regret everything you did. Then it all came true today... but too late, I am already wide awake from that dream."
