And He Returned

And He Returned

And he returned.
Just like that.
He was back . . .
In her life.
"Hi, Sami," Lucas said.
"Go away!"
"Shhh . . .
Just listen.
I'm sorry.
Truly sorry.
You were right.
I have been . . .
well . . .
out to get you.
But not anymore.
I realize
I was wrong.
So wrong.
Can you forgive me?"
Barely audible
"I don't know . . ."
