Tamar surprises

Tamar called. 'Are you at home?' 'No I am not.'
'So go first home, and call me back.' 'What, what's happening?'
'I want you to sit down.' 'I am.' 'Okok. you're prepared?'
'For what?'
'Well, next Thursday on 5 AM, I am landing in Brussels!'
'What??'

I knew. I felt it before. I was hanging in the air, in the way she said 'Are you prepared.'
I knew she was coming.
I love it.
I truly do.

We talked for too long (my mother is going to kill me, she already looked very strange and I
hope I can catch that telephone bill before she does...)
and it was a strange but nice talk.

She should come. I hope the sun will be shining as much as today.
It will be fun.

It will be strange, mixing those lives together.
In my head, she belonged to 'Tel Aviv' to that part of my life.
And suddenly she will bump into my life here.

Some time ago, it would have made me crazy, I was not able to mix those things, worried about how
people might fit or not fit together. How friends from friends not always can be friends of eachother.
So maybe it will be funny.
But that's ok.
After 8 months of being abroad, one's mind does change in a way.
More relaxed, and more relying on things we don't have control over.
Able to let go, and to know that some things you just can't control.

Letting those things go is a relieve...
(See me smiling)

So yalla baby. Come. Everybody is curious about you...
smile.
