*~*~4 years later~*~*
Time really flies; it seemed like yesterday when Nick left to Europe and now he's coming back tomorrow. I am really excited, finally he was coming back. Everybody was really excited; Mrs. Carter was making sure everything was going fine, she was preparing this little party with the family and the closest friends, nothing really fancy.
"Karla, is everything fine in the kitchen?" Mrs. Carter asked me.
"Yes everything is settled." I answered.
"KARLAAAAAAAA" I heard BJ scream as she approached us wearing a towel around her body.
"What's wrong BJ?" I asked.
"I can't find my baby blue tank top!!!!!!" she whined. BJ through the years had turned into a very snotty girl and she did everything she could to humiliate me, but I didn't care.
"I think that Martha washed it this morning." I said.
"Well go and get it I want to wear it tonight for my brother, OK?" she said and left to her room.
"Yes, BJ. Right now" and I went to the laundry room to pick her top and bring it to her. Fifteen minutes later..
"What the hell took you so long????" she asked.
"Sorry, it wasn't ironed so I had to do it" I said.
"Well you did it really bad. Now I don't want to wear it, I'll wear the green one, it's Nick's favorite color" she said and threw the top to the floor. I picked it up and ran away from her room crying, when I bumped into Leslie,
"What's wrong Karla?" she asked me, but I didn't answer. "It's BJ isn't it?" she said.
"Yes" I answered. I couldn't believe I was 18 years old and a snotty younger girl made me feel like trash just because I was the maid.
"Karla, don't worry; you know BJ, she's really spoiled, she's mommy little girl" she said in a funny tone which made us laugh.
"Thanks Leslie" I said hugging her "I have to go to the kitchen to check up in everything"
"See ya Karl and remember Nick's coming in an hour and you're still in your uniform, go change." she said.
"No, I'm actually wearing this like everyday" I said.
*+*+ One hour later+*+*
Mr. Carter parked the car in front of the house and I saw through a window a tall and blond figure get out of the car. My heart jumped. I still loved him truly madly deeply.
Everybody welcomed him, he was looking really HOT, he was taller, like 6 ft, and still had those penetrating blue eyes that I loved. Now he was a man. I didn't have the chance to be around him because he was always surrounded by his friends and I spent the whole night in the kitchen. Everybody left around 1 am so I had to clean up the mess and wash the dishes. I started cleaning the living room and picking up the garbage. Then I went to the kitchen to wash the dishes.
I heard somebody coming, it was Nick. I froze when I saw him standing in the kitchen door.
"Nick" I said.
"Yes. And you are?" he said staring at me.
"You don't remember me? I'm Karla!!"
"Karla!!! Oh my God you've changed so much. You're a woman now" he said. He was right, I had changed; I grew up too, I was a woman and my body didn't hide it. He was staring at me, I felt a little bit uncomfortable.
"Come here and give me a hug!!" he said and we hugged. "You look really good" he whispered in my ear. That made me blush like a tomato. He grabbed a glass of juice and sat at the table.
"So, what happened in the years I was gone?" he asked taking a sip from his glass.
"Nothing" I answered.
"Well it certainly did, I mean look at you, you look I mean, " he was speechless. I didn't consider I had changed, I just developed my body. My black hair was longer but I always had a braid, I still had the same green eyes, same everything except that I had the forms of a woman. "I just grew up, like you, you're 19 now, a grown man. But I'm still the same Karla". I said knowing what he meant. I had finished washing the dishes and he noticed that.
"I thought that when I came back you wouldn't be here. But I'm so happy to see you" he said smiling. "There goes that smile again" I thought.
"I'm really tired now. See you tomorrow. Good night" he said.
"Good night, Nick"
I replied. I couldn't sleep that night. He was back.
