Some Years Later
It has been a while since I had been back in Miami. A lot of things have changed. I have grown up, toured overseas a couple times, and I have made a life for me. I have Friends that I have known since I joined the army and they were coming to live in Miami too. Although, some of them were getting married and I was still my single self which I did not like very much.
The first thing Mark and I were going to was treat ourselves to was some good food. We did not even want to go set our bags down at his fiancee's house. We wanted to eat something good!
"Where is wife," I asked as we sat down at the table.
"She could not make it," he berkata a little upset, "she had some family thing out of state."
"Ahh, at least anda know someone who lives here," I berkata laughing a bit.
"Yeah, what are anda going to do now," Mark asked curiously.
"I have no idea, I just want to eat something good," I stated, "I will eventually have to find somewhere to live."
"Yeah, well, my parent's house has an extra bedroom," he said.
"Thanks, I might have to take anda up on that offer," I berkata laughing.
"What can I get anda two to drink," our waitress asked.
"Water, for me," I said.
"I will have a coke," Mark said.
"Okay, do anda need time to look at the menu atau do anda know what anda want," she asked.
"I think I am going to need some time, these are some tough choices," I said.
"Okay, no worries," she smiled politely, "I will be back with your drink orders."
"Hey, what about her," Mark asked as he tried to set me up, yet again, "she is decent looking."
"Mark, anda have got to stop that," I berkata laughing.
"Melissa, I would like to pay for those two gentlemen's meal," a familiar voice said.
"Okay Lola, I will let them know," our waitress said.
"Melissa, I would rather anda not," the girl said.
"Oh come on Lola, they are cute," Melissa said.
"Whatever," Lola said, "I have to study."
"That voice sounds so familiar," I said.
"What voice," Mark asked, "how could anda remember a familiar voice? anda have been overseas how long?"
"That girl that our waitress was just talking to," I said, "true, but I did have a friend before I entered the army."
"Yeah but it had been years," Mark said.
"My friend Lola, who does not want me to tell anda this is offering to pay for your lunches," our waitress said.
"Oh, that is unnecessary," I said.
"She wants too and trust me, anda will not win that battle with her," Melissa said.
"Okay," Mark berkata as he shrugged his shoulders.
"What is your friend's last name," I asked.
"Oh, that is a good question, I don't really know," she said, "she comes here every Monday."
"Oh okay," I said.
After we ordered, I got up to thank this girl for buying our lunches. It was very kind for someone to do that.
"Thank anda for buying our lunches," I berkata as I walked up to her booth.
"It's no problem," she smiled as she looked up from her book.
"I am Kyle Harmon," I berkata as I shook hands with her.
"Kyle," she asked, "is that you?!"
"Um yes," I berkata confused, "I am sorry do I know you?"
"Um yeah, it's me," she berkata nervously, "Lola from the orphanage."
"I did not even recognize you," I said, "it has been while. Would anda like to sertai my friend and I for lunch?"
"Yeah, that'll be cool" she laughed nervously.
"Mark, this is Lola, my best friend before I joined the army," I said.
"It is nice to meet you," he said.
"Nice to meet anda too," she smiled, "so, what have anda been up to?"
"Shortly after anda got adopted I joined the army and have been doing that since then," I said, "Mark and I just got back from our last tour."
"Oh cool, that's great," Lola said.
"I told ya so Lola," Melissa berkata as she refilled our drinks.
"Kyle, here is an old friend," she laughed.
"Oh okay," Melissa said, "I guess anda told me so."
"I guess I did," Lola shrugged.
"What have anda been up to," I asked, "how is your family?"
"Oh, they are great," she berkata as an odd look came on her face, "I am in the middle of taking a pantai lifeguarding class."
"I am glad it worked out. anda deserve a good family," I said, "so what is your family like?"
"There is Tom and Kelly, they are so nice! Then my step-brother Hayden just turned 21 and is in college," she said.
"Oh cool," I said, "Mark is getting married in a few months. He is super excited."
"Oh neat, congratulations," Lola berkata as she smiled, "well, I better go. It was good seeing anda Kyle and it was nice meeting anda Mark."
"Okay, thank anda for lunch," I said, "it was good seeing anda too. Bye."
"Is that the girl anda were telling me about when we first," he asked curiously.
"Yep, that is her," I said.
"Man, she is pretty! Too pretty for you," Mark berkata laughing.
"Oh whatever," I said, "Let's get out of here!"
"Okay, let's go." Mark said.
