Lunch out on the Patio
Back when I was in high school my girlfriend and I used to have lunch out on her patio all the time. I remember this one time in particular we eating bars of Hershey chocolate for dessert and we were just talking about our future. I had already been accepted to USC and she was going to Yale, which was really impressive. I barely got into the school that I applied to and she turned down several other Ivy League offers to go to her first choice. That was a great time and I miss her a great deal, and always wonder what would’ve happened if we would’ve ended up together.
I was at a convenience store the other day and I was buying some jawbreakers when I got a call on my phone. I didn’t recognize the number but when I picked it up I recognized the voice. It was my old girlfriend and she said that she was going to be coming back to town and that she wanted to get together to have lunch. I suggested a couple of good restaurants, but she told me that her parents were vacationing in the Bahamas and that she wanted to relive some old memories out on the patio. She ended up making a nice Italian brunch that Sunday afternoon and we caught up and had a great time.
