You Again...

This is the first part of a story Clio is working on. She was wondering on a long car ride what it would be like to reignite an old friendship after a long time. It is inspired by a number of things.

1. A story of the way Clio's friend's parents reunited

2. Her friendship with some special friends who will remain anonymous (you know who you are)

3. A secret between her... and herself ;)

As usual, Clio thanks you for reading this, and she hopes you will continue on visiting The Three Muses. She is hoping to have a thanksgiving story up by tomorrow.



It had been years since she’d seen him. She couldn’t believe that they met in that way. How could she have gotten so lucky as to run into him that particular afternoon?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

She was merely walking past a Starbucks when she glanced through the window. Busy running errands, she barely paused to see who was inside the coffeehouse on that chilly fall afternoon. However, on that day, someone inside caught her eye. Halting abruptly in her steps, she turned to enter the shop.

A young man had his back turned against her, apparently waiting for his drink. She studied him briefly. He was lean, yet slightly muscular, and his dark hair was slightly messy, probably from the frosty wind blowing outside.

“Liam? Is that you?” She inquired of the young man who looked so liked a friend of hers in high school.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Liam spun around, completely taken aback. Who was she who knew his name? He didn’t recognize her, not straight away at least. Upon examination, he identified the young woman who stood in front of him.

“Claire? Wow, it’s been ages.”

She smiled at him, instantly igniting their old friendship.
