Hmm, hoould I describe that? I obviously cared about Daniel despite our little arrangement He put that extra sether he wasn’t selfish about it There was a lustful passion between us We clicked well, even outside of the bed we got along like a house on fire

Maybe that’s why I felt so out of it I hadn’t had y to hi, maybe even take him up on that offer to coht about now Only I couldn’t bringand dance for two years, and he hadn’t once brought up wanting anything ain, I told ht it up either

I was in a haze of thoughts, and s were on auto-pilot I was out of the toilets and walking steadily past thepeople’s happy smiles as they carried on with their lives I idly wondered if any of theet beaten by their alcoholic father while theirto intervene? Hoould they take the news of the passing of a parent they barely kneho had suddenly es and never once reached out to their kid in the process?

I was trying to delay the trip to mycentre, pretending to look interested at the clothes on e I killed an hour this way before et back tomy feet move in the direction of my car when I heard a familiar voice call out from behind me It didn’t hit me until the third ti there was probably another Sara around The name is pretty common after all

She wrapped her arhtly to her chest as she laughed joyously "I saw you leave a clothing store and I thought to myself, ‘No, that can’t be Sara, not my Sara’ I followed you out, and when I saw those brown eyes and those big pouty lips, I just knew! Oh, I just kneas you! My Sara!" She was still hugging htly to her, half her face into my hair as she rocked us fro on my each shoulder and looked me up and doith a smile that went froood to see you!" I choked out, gulping down the lu!"

"As do you! Noer ed "Yeah, fine I can’t believe how good you look"

She pursed her lips and frowned at e in subject, most likely

"Mom’s passed away," I breathed out

She didn’t look surprised She just nodded "I know Car crash and all I went to the funeral I thought I’d see you there for sure Was hoping so, anyway"

My eyebrows shot up "You went to her funeral?" I couldn’t contain my disbelief
