A reunion (for allbedestroyed)

[doesntsing]

It had been a long winter for Midge. She was busy with plenty of gigs, as well as taking care of her family, but she never forgot about Robert. It felt like something was missing without him. Getting to talk to him at least once a week was something that she looked forward to and a great way to keep up to date with each other’s lives. Midge missed him a lot, and kept looking for a chance to get away for a while and go see him.

By May, she was able to convince Susie that she needed some downtime and to not book anything for her for at least a month. She can’t say her manager was happy about it, but they compromised with Midge agreeing to look into the comedy scene in Nairobi while she was there.

Packing was a nightmare, but Midge managed to get down to two large suitcases and a hat box. The flight to London was long, then after a layover of a few hours, she finally boarded the plane to Nairobi.

The airport is colorful and exotic, the heat hitting her as soon as she steps off the plane. Some porters graciously help her with her bags and she stands in the waiting area for Robert’s arrival. Midge feels excited and jittery to finally see him again after so long.

When she spots him, a huge grin breaks out on her face. She can’t help herself; she runs to him and leaps into his arms. There’s no point in trying to play it coy. Midge missed him too much to act unaffected by the fact that they’re finally together again.

“Aren’t you adorable?” she says with a playful grin. “What happened?”

Midge puts her arm around him when he comes close to her and gently rubs his back.

“I guess you really have been serious your whole life.” She turns her gaze to him, her blue eyes meeting his. “What attracts such a serious man to a comedian?”
