Out There Waiting

I look out over the terrace but my mind is somewhere far away.


“Hey kiddo.” Blane raps an arm around me, drawing me close. I glance up and smile before returning to my thoughts.


“What are you thinking about?” He rests his chin on my head. The warmth of the sun bathing us and the gardens below in a breath taking, evening glow.


I sigh, returning to reality.


I open my mouth but can’t quite figure out how to explain it. My eyes focus on the multi-colored sky above.


“Do… you ever get the feeling that…” i pause. Would he think i was weird for this?


I smile knowing that he knew i was pretty weird in general.


“… you… were meant to be somewhere else?” I bite my cheek anxiously. “Like something… far away is calling to you…?”


I frown in frustration. How could i explain this feeling better?


Blane pressed closer.


“Actually, i think i do.” He laughed softly. “A long time ago i was lost. Trying to find myself. I went around the world to find that missing piece nut it took a bit of time. Eventually though, i was brought here. Finally my search was over. Because…”


He knelt to kiss my temple.


“… i found you.”


I smiled up at him.


“And Will, Berry, Selen, Leo… You all are who i meant to be with.”


We watched as shadows grew and stars nlinked to life.


“I love you, big bro.” I giggled.


He chuckled.


“I love you, kid. And don’t worry. We’ll help you fond what your heart is searching for. Alright?”


I nod, close my eyes and wonder what God has instore for me.
