She watches as the numbers increase, the time passes, as we say. She is at a loss for words. She needs to start her profressional dance practice for work later this evening, but she also just smoked weed and cleaned around the house. She enjoys order and tidiness, not necessarily meticulous, but everything has its place.

She just got off the phone with him. Over the course of the next 60 seconds, she thought to herself, "OMG, he is coming to visit finally". After all the video calls about what they'd do when they would be in person. All of their fantasies and feelings towards each other. Mind you, at times it gets "50 Shades of Grey" hot, when they talk at times, if you catch my drift, as Robin Sharma would say. I mean, in terms of asking for clarification, but nothing to do with "50 Shades".

Anyways, "I" - let's call him, booked his $600 flight to come and visit her in person. Mind you, she has a boyfriend. And her boyfriend knows about him, and perhaps their history.

Let me break this down. "I" let's call him - has known her since high school, and at the time she did not know about his feelings toward her, they were in different universities. So there has been a phase, when they did 'experiment', but it didn't lead to anything, either than just having open and honest conversation about it, and well, moving on. She'd imagine "I" and her current man "K", at the round table, with tequilla in hand, emotions high, questions are fired. "Do you like my girl?", "Do you have feelings?", "What have you tried together?".

Will it amount to that, I don't know.

I know that K has questions and suspicions. When she video calls "I", it's private, when K is not here. But K does not know that, it just happens to line up when K is not home.

"Do they have feelings?",

They are strictly just friends, with a friendship that has been through it, and deep respect for each other journies. Admiration yes, inspiration, yes, because that's what friends are supposed to make you feel like. They've been through their lows and highs together. They had a phase, but now he's "a married man", with her as his mistress. She likes being called that. That's what she is to him.

As time goes by, she wonders, what will happen next? Will this be another big change, in her life? She's been preaching all her life, that she is a "free spirit", will any action take place?

"I" also has money, he is well-off, but a kind-hearted soul. Well-mannered, nice to be around, genuinely a good-intentioned person and only wants good for people, also is there to lend advice and insight. But he has money. At times it seems to be a threat for "K".

Only time can tell. The Universe is listening.
