The Day

And then the day arrived, smoothly. Ella was fulfilled with happiness - all she could do was smile and arrange everything over and over again. She could barely wait to see Jay arriving.

Jay was slightly late. At least theorically. He told Ella he would be there sooner, but couldn't make it. He hoped she wouldn't be harmed by his delay. Jay just wanted to see her and hold her. He missed her.

Ella jumped each time she heard any suspicious noise around the gate, the door or her cellphone. And finally the expected message rang in her cellphone: 'I'm almost there'. Ella started laughing with no reason. She went up the stairs, and then down, and then up again, and then down. And then Jay arrived.

She opened the gate slowly, her hands trembled. She saw the car, she stared at Jay sitting in the backseat, smiling happilly at her. She missed him and didn't believe he was actually there.

Ella wouldn't take her eyes off him. He stood and she loved him even more. He walked towards her and she showed her brightest smile.

They kissed.

Yes, Jay and Ella were at last together. And still can't explain how they manage to do the impossible: staying apart for more than a few hours.
