A girl who wasn’t me!

Sonia

“Love you too, babe.” Jeff and I kissed each other goodbye. He wrapped me more tightly, and I had to wriggle my way out of his arms. He wasn’t ready to part ways with me yet.

“No… babe!” He whined like a little baby, making me laugh.

“Can’t afford to miss my flight…” I let out and then hurried away before he could get his hands on me again.

I stopped briefly and then turned to blow him a kiss before running off.

The hum of the plane engines was a dull backdrop to the whirlwind of thoughts in my mind. Jeff. His smile, the way he looked at me, the way he touched my belly, as if the baby inside was already his whole world. It was almost too much. He loved me, that much was clear. And he was ready to give me anything.

I should be happy. Anyone else would be thrilled to have a man like him. ……
