Three days later.
Mike didn't visit Caroline in the last few days wanting her to miss his presence in her life. Unfortunately, she didn't reply to her messages and his calls as well. Now he was outside Caroline's house, precisely in the veranda waiting to see her again.
Thelma served Mike a refreshing ice tea and cookies. "Please wait for a few moments, Mike. My daughter will come down in a few seconds."
"No worries, Auntie. Thank you for the refreshing ice tea," Mike took a sip of the ice tea in the glass.
A moment later.
Thelma went back inside the house after having a short conversation with the visitor.
Caroline finally steps outside and looked at Mike. "You're here!"
She sat on the chair facing him.
Mike gazed into her eyes intensely. "I'm here 'coz I miss you so much. I miss my sunshine. My day is not complete without seeing you," he said softly.
Caroline giggled amused by his confession. "Really—?"
"Yes, cross my heart!" Mike made a sign of the cross in his heart.
