A Short Story:The Way We Used To Be Part Two

Lee stood in front the house that he has been to in years and it looks the same as when they were kids he rings the bell and then a familiar voice comes on "Is that you Ji Lee Kang?" he looks at the monitor and says "Yes Mrs.Young!" the echoes of footsteps running make it to his ear.
Lee doesn't panic only wait the gate opens and there stood Mrs. Young Jane's mother she pulls Lee into a hug which is kind of weird she was shorter than he remembers or is it because he got taller.

Mrs. Young was thrilled to see Lee it's been years since he stops coming over and when she asked Jane she would say "He's busy mom can't expect him to always be around!" Lee has always been like a son to Mrs. Young and his mother and she had planned to marry the two of them off when they got older.  But they stop talking and she had no say as well as Ai Lee her best friend but she knew that they would come back she had a gut feeling and it was always right most of the time.

Jane was up in her room when the house keeper came in and says "Ms. Young you have a guest the person is with your mother downstairs."  Jane was confused who was the guest that came to see her one thing Jane knew is that she doesn't have any friends so who could this person possibly be.
Jane got dress presentable and head downstairs to hear her mother's laughter and a man's voice when she enters the kitchen her heart almost stop there he stood next to her mother.

Lee her childhood friend 'why is he here?' she wonders Lee hears her grasp as she enters, of course, she is in shock he has talked to her for four years now and here he stood in her kitchen talking to her mother like old times.  Mrs. Young notice Jane as well when Lee turns to the kitchen door she says "Jane honey look who drop by Lee your best friend aren't you happy to see him!!"

Jane inhales and says "Yeah I am quite shocked mom Lee long time no see!"
Lee smiles and walks up to her then pulls her into him and hugs her tightly "yes Jane long time no see indeed" says to himself.

Mrs. Young seeks away leaving the two to themselves she quickly calls Ai Lee and says "Ai Lee I told you that they would come back on their own Lee Kang came over for himself and they are hugging it out let's start planning for the wedding that will happen when they finish college!"
Ai Lee says "Sophie that's great news lets meet for tea tomorrow and let's keep it a secret from the husbands you know how they will get when they hear this!"
