Sun was in Helen's eyes! Her eyes were moist; therefore, her vision saw the rainbows looping and dancing in the sky. Her eyes had become sky after rain, which saw the radiance pouring down like a waterfall from the sky! She lowered the window. Her hands were still on the steering wheel. Someone behind her honked the horn. She knew that she had to move her car. The carpool line, seemed to her, was moving faster than usual. She drove her car a little to front and then back and was able to get out of the carpool line. She drove her car to the opposite direction and then onto a narrow residential street and parked. Jacob walked behind her car. She could see him in the rare view mirror. She did not get out of the car while thinking real hard in a few seconds that she had before Jacob would reach her car. Should she run or stay? He opened the passenger side door and came inside her car and sat next to her.
"Oh, you ran away from me twice; I won't let you run again!" He took the handkerchief out of his jacket's chest pocket and wiped her tears.
Helen leaned straight to the back of the her seat without moving her head to look at him. Her tears flowing like a heavy rainfall. She remembered the other time, at the New Year's Eve Party of 1067, he had also wiped her eyes with his handkerchief. How strange that every time they saw each other, he had one ready for her unending tears!
It was almost six years since that short affair they had had. The son she had with him, was now over five years old. She could never tell him that he fathered a child with her!
She would be thirty two years old in a month, yet her look, youth, and beauty had not changed at all.
In fact the maturity had made her more appealing, much sexier, and prettier! She was wearing her normal style of clothing- a big shirt, a pair of blue jeans and sneakers. She had her hair, which was long and blond again, in a pony tail. Jacob seemed that had come from work. He was wearing a business suit, navy color, with white shirt and red tie, and red handkerchief, the one that he used to wipe her tears. Helen finally looked at him!
"What are you doing here?"
