Are we good?

We were so little then, we knew nothing or I knew nothing but he has always been there for me even when they came trying to take me away as a collateral ...ha my own father used me, his own daughter as a collateral to his debts but he saved me, he was my superhero and I am his love" I said smiling then suddenly it dwell to my conscience that maybe, just maybe he might have moved on.

I never loved him like he did me but I wanted to because he has done a lot for me and my mom. He saved me from the hands of those debtor's and the bad guys.

He is a good man but what should I do and what will I say when I get in? I've been standing at his doorstep since morning contemplating in my mind whether to knock or turn back.

He has always been the one doing the chasing, pleading for no reason just to know if I'm still with him with his cute face that makes me feel like the most beautiful girl in the world and here I am scared of going in, I guess that night face won't leave me.

"You saw him Leila being locked in his cell, you are good, it is not him, he is still the same guy that loved you and probably still does now" I reassured myself. "But why are my hands still by my side? Why am I not opening the door already?

"Oh my gosh someone is coming out, What if it's him? What should I do? God I'm not ready ...I need to hide 

"Le..?

It's him, oh my gosh it's him, what will I say?  

"Le.." he called again slowly

"Phil"

"I heard you've seen him"

"Yeah" i replied now facing him

"So... Are we good now?

"Yeah..Yeah? I replied looking to know if it's the same for him 

"I've missed you Le, I've missed you s... Can I hug you please? He ask softly almost sounding like a whisper

"I have missed you too Phil, I miss you so much and thank you for transferring, if you hadn't, I don't know what I would have done' she says as she hugs him. 'Phil.. thank you"

"You don't have to thank me, I love you Le, you still know that right? He asked as he take her in while holding her as if she would disappear if he leave her  

"Do you really still love me Phil? She asked, looking at his eyes for confirmation.

"I Will never stop loving you Le, you don't know how traumatised I've been all those years and.. and heartbroken. I love you Le, I love you so much" he whispers.

"Can I hug you again? Please.." he pleaded when he felt her tense

"I miss you too Phil so much, school hadn't been the same without you and I'm so sorry for making you transfer and now I won't be seeing you everyday and I missed your graduation. I promised I.. I didn't know Phil, I'm so sorry" she said crying as she hugged him. "Do you forgive me? 

"Le I can never be angry at you and it wasn't your fault so stop feeling guilty uh? Come on sit let me go get something for you, we have a lot to discuss, I've been dying to know who made you cry that day, I need to teach him a lesson. He didn't know whose baby he was messing with.

"Phil...!

"Yeah baby the drink, what do you want? Or is Bacardi lemonade still your favourite?

"Yeah but I.. I'm fine now so there's is no need for us to talk about that incident anymore"

"Yeah... Bacardi lemonade. Give me one minute  and we will talk." He says as he goes to the kitchen which is not too far from the parlour.

Phil...!

Uhh?  le.. almost done

I'm serious phil" she said sounding angry

"Yes baby here it is" he said handing her the drink

I don't want to talk about it 

Why.?

I just don't want to talk about it

Do you still love me Le? We used to tell each other things, even stuff that is meaningless.

I get it you don't want to talk about it now, that's fine but please answer me do you still love?cause I'm still crazy in love with you Le so do you?
