approaches with a warm, hopeful smile Hey there, I'm looking for Kate. Have you seen her around?
she looked at him Yeah I know her
You do? That's amazing! I've been searching for her everywhere. Do you have any idea where I might find her?
she gives him an address She might be there, but if she's not, she'll probably be at this address
takes the address with a grateful expression Thank you so much! I really appreciate your help.
gives MidnightRaven a warm hug Thank you again. I'll head over to that address right away. Wish me luck!
Good luck, ya hear? smiles
leaves the lounge and heads towards the address MidnightRaven provided, filled with hope and determination
knocks on the door at the address MidnightRaven gave him, waiting anxiously for someone to answer
someone opened the door, it was Kate What is it, Nick?
takes a deep breath, trying to steady himself Kate, it's me, Nick. I... I've missed you so much. Can we talk?
she hesitated, her arms wrapped around her stomach Sure come in
enters the house and takes Kate's hand gently Kate, I know we had our differences, but I never stopped loving you. Seeing you here, it all came rushing back. I want to be part of your life again. Let's give it another shot. Let's make new memories together.
Kate hesitates Nick...I don't know..we broke up because we were too young, too immature..things happened..
holds Kate's hands tighter, looking into her eyes with sincerity I understand, Kate. We were young and foolish back then. But I've grown, I've changed. I'm ready to prove to you that I can be the partner you deserve. Give us another chance.
Kate sighed and held his hands back, her eyes conflicted It's..complicated, Nick. I like you..I do, but I'm..not ready yet.
takes a deep breath, trying to hide his disappointment I understand, Kate. I won't rush you into anything. Take all the time you need.
she smiled at him gently I just need time. And..we..need to figure things out. We can't rush this. Please understand
smiles warmly, giving Kate's hands a reassuring squeeze I completely understand, Kate. I'm not going anywhere.
