At first I was pursuing a business venture and she was interested in joining me. Then it was like we totally forgot about the business and was so focused on each other instead.
We got to know each other. We started asking questions about each other's lives.
Lucy is from Kenya and I'm for the US. We are lovers divided by an ocean and lots of paperwork.
She would send me the her favorite Kenyan songs that were the latest hits and loved everyone of them she sent me. I would listen to them thinking of her. She even tried to teach me her native tongue but my memory isn't good enough to remember what words mean what. I would really have to practice hard.
One day I hope I can actually learn a good bit of her language, just so that I can understand what she is telling her friends about me.
