It had been a particularly good day. I had just picked up my work contract and tax return forms from my new workplace, we had just eaten at an Indian restaurant downtown, and chased squirrels around all day on campus.
In high spirits, we sat in his room going through his calender and looking at the various post-it notes, killing time until I had to go catch my bus home.
Out of nowhere, he said that he was leaving for six months and asked me if I was willing to wait. I remember saying yes. I remember him saying that, "I don't know, but I have a feeling, and I'm just going to go with it."
I also remember running for a bus and frantically searching through my bag for my bus ticket, turning around to give him a hug, but he kissed me instead. I couldn't really process it because I had to get on the bus, but I might have laughed about it later.
