Episode 8

CALEB

Missing someone and I mean really, really missing someone is one of the worst feelings. That person could be gone for one day or a few weeks and it can still feel like an eternity.

And let me tell you, when you start to miss someone as soon as they leave, youve got it BAD.

It doesnt matter if you fall in love easily, but when you finally find someone who is your best friend and significant other all rolled into one, you know that someone is special.

Deep love like this means a lot of things; you have a more positive outlook on life, you are willing to try new things (as long as your girl does, too), and you start thinking about the future, even if the idea growing old together used to freak you out.

Being this connected to a person can also mean that missing them is that much harder on you.

Sure, texting and video chatting can work to an extent, but there really is nothing that can compare to actually being with your boo especially when you miss them so much.

I went to work to chingola for a while but being away from her was like I don’t know. the worse part was she also went back home and being kept by her strict step mother it was really hard to have a chance to see her.

when are you opening” I asked?

next week and when are you getting back ” she asked

tomorrow ” I said.

I wish I can see you ” she said

will wait for next week babe, and I found an apartment for you just want you to see it when I get back so we pay for it ” I said

oh ” she mumbled.

babe will talk to you some other time, let me hung out with the boys and I will call you, I love you” I said

bye ” she said

I know she was upset that was going to be leaving alone, I wanted her to have her freedom. . I didn’t what her to feel trapped in my house as if we were already married.

it felt good working in chingola again at least I was close to home and I missed this place so much seeing my friends brought so much memory.

so, you are in chingola you can’t even call me ” she said

Carol ” I said

a week later Sharon came back though I haven’t seen her because of work, I was in the night shift and most of the time when I go for work, she was already at school. And when I go for work, she was back from school …

I got back from work and I was really tired I just wanted to take a long nap.
