Remembering how my business was flourishing, how much I had put into that business, and how everyone wanted a design from me, yet I gave all that away when I decided to settle with that man and I don’t even have that right now.
The sound of my phone mantled me as I bent to pick it up, it was Matteo calling.

“Hey, little Birdie.” He called in his little charmy way, in a voice that I have found fitting

A feeling dropped to low and deep into my chest, it felt so unnatural that I had to tell myself to dig it out of i
“Yes. I mean, yes, I got home well.” After finding my voice amidst the confusion that had set low deep in me, said to him
That’s nice then, I’m glad to hear that.” He said.
A line silence ensued between us, I knew he wanted to say something to me, which was why he said he called, and yet as the silence prolonged I didn’t know if he wanted to say more.
We said at the same time, and laughter bubbled out of the two of us
“I’m sorry, you go first” fte said, still recovering from the laugh that had escaped him.

“I mean, you i wanted to tell me something, and I…..”
“Yep yep, you are right, which is why I called”
He sounded like he just recovered from something, and then he wanted to say more.
“I was thinking of telling my family as well, you know about the whole marriage thing on his face.”

to see the look
That sounded so good, so much like what I wanted to experience.
“I mean……I definitely would want to see that look on his face, so yes, I am saying yes to that”
I should have passed the time when I give a fuck about my ex–husband but nope, all I want to see is when he will burn down and never experience what it feels like to be a human again, and that exactly is what I am doing
“Then tomorrow? How does 4 pm sound! Expect you have a plan already, and I can reschedule and.
“You don’t have to reschedule, I have nothing I am doing then, which means that time will be beyond perfect for me.” I quickly accepted it
It sounded like exactly what I wanted to do, so I am embracing myself into this new full role with all happiness.
“I guess then I will see you tomorrow. I hope you have a good night.”
“With what I have just heard? Bet I will have the best night ever.” I said to him in return.
When I felt the growing smile on my face, it felt like I wasn’t the only one smiling right now, like the person on the other side of the line is smiling as heavily as I am doing too
“Goodnight little Birdie.” He said.
“Goodnight Matteo.”
After a little break, he ended the call.
My phone is still hanging in my ears like I’m waiting for him to keep speaking, maybe because I know that a word that comes out from him will mean more than what will make my way.
Yet as I sit here, I am imagining all the things that will happen tomorrow,
