Mellony: I was riding on the A train, lost in a world of thought when your name crossed my mind. It wasn’t the first time this had happened, in fact the occurrence had become a regular part of my daydreams. I wondered if you even remembered me… two years was really a long time. Even if you did, it was probably only hatred that my name summoned within you, not the few good memories we had shared. Los Angeles was nothing like the movies, I should have known, but here I am, back home once again. Wandering the streets of New York, feeling less and less like I belong anywhere.
The subway screeched to a stop, jolting me from my train of thought, two more stations until I would need to get off. My friend Jewels lives in midtown, you remember Jewels don’t you? She’s the one who you always would complain about because she drank your scotch whenever she visited. She was the only person I could think to call when my plane landed, except of course you. Maybe just a text wouldn’t matter, two years is a long time to still hold hatred isn’t it?
