~*~ Chapter 3 ~*~
I got home from my Christmas celebration. You see, here in Brazil we celebrate Christmas by having a feast at midnight of the 24th.
I’ve never really liked Christmas at my family’s house, because I have a small family. And we’re pretty much every weekend together, so there’s not too much to talk about at Christmas that our family members don’t already know, not too much to be updated. So last year we celebrated at my uncle’s. We got there around 10:30 p.m., ate dinner before midnight and around 12:40 a.m. we were back home.
I was having my summer break from college during that time and I had probably woken up around 2 p.m. Yep! Every summer break it’s the same thing. I sleep until the middle of the afternoon and go to bed around 6 a.m.
So… when I got home from my Christmas celebration that night, I did what I’m used to, what I’m actually addicted to. I logged onto my Orkut account and MSN Messenger, because, you see…
Remember the guy I mentioned last chapter? The one I was trying to forget? Well… I no longer had him in my messenger. It had been like… 15 days since I had blocked and deleted him. I had gotten addicted to MSN because of him, but those days I had no one that I really liked to chat with, so I never really felt like logging onto my messenger anymore. But that day I did anyway. I wanted to talk to someone, but I was pretty much sure there wasn’t gonna be anyone on, being Christmas night and all. I think I must have logged on to feel better, like… seeing someone meant that I wasn’t the only one having a pathetic Christmas night. LoL
That was when I saw him online for the first time. I saw his MSN icon green. I smiled (don’t ask me why) and opened a conversation window with him.
“Hey.” I wrote.
“Hey. And you are…”
“I’m that girl that added you on Orkut.”
“Oh, so you’re the bunny from my scrapbook” (I used to have a picture of me with bunny ears as my profile picture.)
That was it. Conversation had been initiated. We were connected. Love was
on its way. I knew it, but didn’t prepare myself for what was about
to come. Stupid me!
