Old Friend

It was her receptionist. She inquired who was calling her. He could not understand what to say so replied, “tell her an old friend of fifty years ago called. My name is Denny.” The receptionist did not take the call seriously. However, dropped a text to Karen.      

Calling Him Back

Karen remembered it all. She called him in minutes of receiving the text. Lehmann was surprised, doubtful and happy while making the call. And when she finally heard the voice of Vinar, for one more time she felt love. True love has a habit of coming back. They remained separated for more than fifty years. Did not communicate even for once during the span yet their love for each other was still young and intense. They began communicating via email and gradually took it to the phone.

Together Forever

This time even the Almighty did not want them to separate. Lehmann too was single like Vinar. After a few months of exchanging emails and calls, they decided to see each other in person. Vinar decided to fly to Washington to see his old sweetheart. He was nervous, excited, and happy. After a few hours, he reached his destination and in no time he was going to meet HER.  

The Day

It was January 19th, 2015. He did not know what Karen had grown into. He did not know if she held the same feelings for him as she used to once. They finally met and that was the second time both had fallen in love again. The first time too was with each other. Those years had taught her many lessons, the first being that they were made for each other.      

Wait So Long

There was no point waiting any further as they already had waited for about fifty years. He proposed her again and this time they did get married. “It was wonderful. Absolutely wonderful.” Vinar said joyfully. Lehmann who finally had become Lehmann-Vinar packed her stuff to move to Minnesota to her one and only true love and now her husband too. But still, there was something missing…….  

Incomplete

They couldn’t be happier. But still, they felt their celebration was incomplete. This was strange as they had been waiting for this life for decades and now when they were living it they were not feeling as good as they should have. The duo soon realized what was missing…….
