"What do you think of this?" I started as I saw Julie walk inside my office. "Five months from now Tina and I are celebrating our second anniversary and I’m thinking–"  
 
"We’re talking about Tina again?" Julie said with a smile on her face.
 
"Think about this for a second. I will go to her parent’s house then I will have this big sign saying ‘I love you’ or ‘I’m sorry’ or ‘Happy anniversary’, I’m still not sure what to say. Then I will kneel in front of her with flowers in hand and–" I stopped when I saw Julie look down. "What?"
 
"I just.." Julie stammered. "I don’t want to get your hopes up."  
 
"I know but I’m just thinking ahead, you know. You told me to never stop, you’ve inspired me to work harder." I said.
 
"I know Bette and I’m beginning to hate myself for giving that advice." Julie stated.
 
"What are you saying?" I asked.
 
"I’m not saying that–"
 
"That Tina’s not coming back. Is that what you’re saying?"  I finished Julie’s sentence.
 
"I just don’t want you to be heartbroken all over again Bette." Julie said as she reach out to touch my arms.
 
"But I don’t want to stop." I said.
 
"Then don’t stop." Julie said as she hold my hand. "Just don’t expect Tina to come running back into your arms once you’re done with your grand romantic gestures."
 
I took a deep breathe. "Okay. I’m just hopeful."
 
"I know you are." Julie said smiling. "Just don’t think that because you’re doing this stuff will immediately result to you and Tina getting back together."
 
"You’re right." I said thinking that Julie is right, I’m thinking of this plan with the idea of Tina rushing back into my arms. "But I’m still going to go to her parent’s house on our second anniversary." I said and I saw Julie raising her eyebrow. "But I won’t be there kneeling in front of her. I’ll just maybe hide behind the trees, with a telescope in hand.."
 
"Oh Bette.. you are for sure a one determined woman." Julie said as she shook her head.
 
"I am." I said. "Cause I’m so in love with this girl."
 
"Okay you better go now, your client will not be too happy if you don’t get there on time." Julie said.
 
"I’ll go now." I said as I reached for my purse. "Bye Julie."

I knew it!  
 
I so knew it from the beginning! Why did I doubted her? Why I did I leave her?
 
I know that Bette can’t do that to me. I know it right from the start but somehow my head is telling me other things when I should have listened to my heart.  
 
Bette will and can never do that to me.
 
It took me this long to realize this but thankfully I finally did unveiled the truth. I love her so much that I wouldn’t care less for an explanation or an apology, I just want to hug her and kiss her.  
 
I miss her so much.
 
"Can you give this note to that lady over there." I told the young boy as I pointed to the direction I was looking.
 
"There?" The boy asked me.
 
"Yes." I nodded. "Just give this to her." I finished as I handed the note to the boy.

Talking to Julie is really awesome, she can be a little rough sometimes and a bit straight-forward but it’s okay because I needed that. I needed someone to tell me if I am reaching for the highest star or if I am being unreasonable. And today is a perfect example.
 
I was planning for that second anniversary with the thought that Tina will fall head over heels in love with me again. Of course that’s what I want but Julie is right when she said that the outcome of that surprise may not be what I wanted. Tina can just ignore my grand gesture or maybe she might have moved on.  
 
Oh shit! What if by the time of our second anniversary she’s already found someone else?!
 
"This is for you."
 
My thoughts were interrupted by this boy who handed me a note. I opened the note and my world stopped.
 
I miss you.
 
The note contained these words. But what made me look around like a maniac was the handwriting.
 
It was Tina’s.
