“So? How did it go, any luck?” Mimi rushed to the door as soon as I got home and opened it for me, so as not not alert the family that I just got home

“At least let me come in, I frowned and she stepped aside for me to come in

I got in and shut the door, the warmth of the house enveloping me, and I breathed in the warm air, having been outside in the cold, with thin clothing. Just then, there was a thunderclap and a heavy downpour followed after

“Thank God” I said under my breath, staring at the downpour through the window

“It's as if the rain was waiting for you to get home first” Mimi spoke, and my head whipped up to look at her. I shrugged and we went to our room

I dropped my bag and avoided her stare and made my way to the bathroom, locking myself in. Mimi didn't bother knocking and I was grateful. I had my bath, brushed my teeth, before coming out with a towel round my body, as I threw my worn clothes into the laundry basket

Mimi was now lying on the bed on her back, still not saying anything, but I could feel her gaze boring into me. I did nothing to answer or give in to her while I put on my night wear. After I was done, I twisted my hair in a bun and crawled into the other side of the bed

I was about closing my eyes to sleep when I felt myself been turned around, and I was now facing Mimi who had a frown on her face

“Why won't you tell me what happened. Was it that bad? You still didn't get to meet him?” she asked and I sat up. She did same, but her frown turned to a pitiful look cause I remained silent

“I'm so sorry Liz”, she made to hold my hands but I raised them up to rub my face before removing them and placed them on my lap

“I met him actually” I said, and her head whipped up, but she had a questioning look

“So, how did it go?”

“I waited for him to finish up, since he won't see me without an appointment in his office. He did finish up and I waited and met him outside. I told him I had to talk to him, but he didn't answer or say anything. He just stared for a while before turning to leave

“Hey” she called me, as I finished explaining. “It's going to be okay” she assured, but even she knew it wasn't that easy. I nodded and gave her a strained smile. We decided to not talk about it anymore and sleep

“Aren't you hungry?” Mimi asked

“No” I replied, as I drifted into sleep

***********


The next day,we left the house for the café. We went about arranging the place and soon the place was open, and customers trooped in. My workers all had smiles on their faces to see me back at the café. Can't blame them, I'm glad to be back also, after taking a break to try to get to talk to Evans, but not even succeeding.


“Oh my gosh, I missed you” I felt someone jump before I could even register who, the person's scent enveloping me

“I missed you too” I smiled as I hugged her back. We pulled away later and she had a smile on her face. “Do you know how scared we were?” Stephanie frowned a bit

“I'm sorry I made you guys worry” I smiled and my eyes landed on Princess. She too came and hugged me before they took their seats in their favourite spot

“We heard about Evans. We're so sorry Princess said and Stephanie nodded
“He still doesn't remember? She asked and I shook my head

“Hey” don't worry, he will remember” she held my hands, giving a reassuringly smile while I gave a strained one.

After a while of gisting, and they filling me on on what has been happening, they finally left and Mimi and I went on about our work. My eyes from time to time, scanning the opposite building, hoping to see him, but no luck


With a dejected sigh, I closed the last window before turning to Mimi

“Are you ready?” I asked,as we finished for the day and ready to head home. She nodded.

“Let me just get my purse from the inside" she ran inside. I stood waiting for her when suddenly the front door pushed open

“We're closed” I said to the intruder, my back turned to the front door, as I pressed away on my phone, but the footsteps came closer. I turned to tell the person away, but my breath got caught in my throat and I suddenly got tongue tied.


“So I thought about it, since you know about my accident and you want me to remember whatever”..... he trailed, looking away from me, while I stood still, still not believing Evans was actually here

“You said three days?” he turned back to look at me. I tried talking but words didn't come out, so I nodded instead

“You've got it” he said and turned to walk away. I snapped out of my stunned state and stopped him

“When, when will you be free?” I asked cautiously, hoping he won't change his mind

“I'll call you” he replied. He turned and opened the door, my brows creased as a frown made a way to my face and as if sensing my confusion even with his back turned

“I got your number from Henry” he said and left the café

I smiled as I turned around to do a happy jump, but bumped into Mimi instead who had her hands crossed over chest, a smile tugging on her lips

“So?” She asked, a little too excited
