1030 Words
Vanessa is an independent thirty-eight year old single woman, divorced to be precise. She is a well-paid engineer that started working out of her hometown as soon as she finished her college studies back in 2001 at the tender age of twenty-one.  She lives by herself, and nobody tells her what she can or can’t do and that is all she ever wanted, be independent, have her own money, buy what she wants, enjoy life, work, travel. She believes in herself, and she thinks everything she has accomplished is great and her full happiness until that night. That night she was in a new bar, with some old friends from college, in a little school reunion after more than 15 years of not seeing each other, in her hometown during holidays. They were talking, remembering all the crazy adventures they had, laughing, joking. Vanessa stands up from her seat trying to reach the ladies bathroom, you ladies know how hard is to go to the lady’s bathroom in the newest, trendier, most crowded bar in the city. People was squashed against each other, she was breaking through the bodies, as she stepped out of a bunch of guys, she lifted her gaze to unexpectedly see him, him, HIM, so different but still so him, so tall, not that slim as he used to be, his dirty blonde hair is now darker, his plump lips are still so full and pink, now he has a well taken care beard that makes him look so manly, looking so different and still so handsome and now incredibly sexy, f uck! Him, HIM!!!, here and now. Why?  Why him? Why today?  Why here?  Why now after all these years? After all these years, yes him, her first love, no, I correct, not her first love, her only platonic first love. The one that got away. She stood there in shock, admiring him, seeing how he has changed so much, his body is now fuller but stronger, all those muscles weren’t there, his face is no longer the face of a young boy, now he is a man, but those eyes, his eyes look exactly the same. Suddenly he felt someone was staring at him and started to look around for the person that was making him feel observed, he looked around the room filled with people, but apparently no-one was paying attention to him, he thought it was weird but when he looked left for the last time before ignoring the feeling he found a woman, looking at him. He just thought when he realized she was the person observing him, staring at him. ‘Wait, Do I know her?’  His inner voice answered, and as soon as he saw her full face looking at him, he knew who she was. ‘I know her, is her, that is Vanessa, she looks gorgeous, she still does’ At that exact moment she saw the change in his expression, and she saw in his eyes, his beautiful golden eyes, how now were shining with the recognition of her, they both knew each other. Her heart stopped for an instant and as soon as she saw how he recognized her, she just went back to 1992, to that first day when she first heard his name and felt curious enough to remember it. Back to august 1992, Day 1 of the first year of middle school: Vanessa and her new friends were talking on the very first day of middle school, about the most handsome and good looking boy in the entire school, they heard the rumors and they were sharing each other information, “he is tall, he is in second year, he has a great body, he has blond-ish hair, his eyes are light brown, like honey, they say he is a great kisser and apparently he is single now” all the girls except Vanessa were talking, she was just listening. She just felt they were overreacting and talking nonsense, how could that be possible, that guy, that “Andrew“ was the only and most good-looking boy in a school with over two hundred students, well at least two hundred male students, that is just not possible, those four girls are just crazy and definitely they don’t know what they are talking about. The classes of the first day passed with nothing extraordinary, they talked more during the recess, on the bench out of their classroom, Vanessa got to know her new gang better.  They talked about how they like to be called and general information about each one of them. That first day, in that moment (the first recess ever), they created the Ladies Gang, well not a real gang, but they call it like that, they played with their names and came with The VL3S Ladies Gang. Sandy Ramirez: Sandy is a sassy brunette, with a great petite body, 1.57 m tall, long hair, sparkly dark eyes, not afraid to talk and defend herself and her friends. Louise Sanchez: Lou is a white, transparent white slim girl, black hair, average height, 1.64 m to be precise, a bit introverted but really funny. Sue Hernandez: Sue is tall, really tall 1.75 m tall, her skin is a rose white kind of skin, a little overweight, she has a good calm temper that balances out great with the other members of the group. Stephanie Anderson: Steph is a short girl, just moved here from another city, black hair, light beige skin color and a total crazy fun girl. Her twin brother, Robert, is in our class, he is not that bad. Vanessa Acosta: Vane, she is tall, just a little less than Sue, 1.70 m tall, she has a good body but don’t brag about it, she is a little self-conscious, dark brown hair just below her shoulders, brown eyes, light beige skin and she is a good student, her mom is making a big effort to give her and her two brothers a private school education. That first day, the Ladies Gang was created and also the code.  What code?
