It’s been almost five years since Mayim left. Sure that Jim tried dating other women again but he stopped his vice of sleeping with random women and taking in alcohols and excessive smoking.

Jim handed Johnny his present for Kaley. “You coming tonight?” Johnny asked. “I don’t think I can attend Kaley’s birthday tonight. So here, tale my birthday present to her instead.” He replied. “Come on. There would be a lot of women coming, Kaley’s friends? They’re all amazing.” Johnny tried to persuade him. “I really can’t. Maybe if Mayim was there? Besides, my flight to Los Angeles for business meeting with the new investor in our company is up tomorrow. I still need to study the slides.” Jim informed him. “Mayim? You really would never get over her, are you?” Johnny laughed. “I’ve dated several girls for the past years but I’ve never met anyone good enough or better than her.” Jim replied. “Fine. How unfortunate. Maybe you’ll grow old alone.” Johnny joked. “Anyway, take care on your flight and good luck with your meeting at Zen. I heard their new Marketing Executive will be at the meeting so you better do your thing well.” Johnny told him and left.

Later in the evening, Jim got his luggage ready and packed for his flight the next day. As he was fixing his things, he saw the Superman shirt that Mayim gave to him few years ago and it made him miss her.

How I wish I didn’t hurt you, how I wish I never let you go

He thought but then despite that his feelings for her never changed, he thought that there is no choice than to accept that they’re not meant for each other and if ever they’ll meet again, it would be more likely that she has settled already with some great guy that deserves her. After a while he folded the Superman shirt and placed it inside his luggage.

-

The next morning, Jim took a local flight having Los Angeles as his final destination. Soon then he took a cab straight to his hotel and got himself fixed and ready for his presentation at Zen in the afternoon. He went through his powerpoint slides and documents again and then he realized how wonderful the project was. He remembered that it started with Mayim’s idea and Vontoro had it innovated and improved through the years.

I’m pretty sure that if she knew about how far her idea were, she would be hell of happy and proud about it.

I wish she was here.

He thought and reminisced the days when he was still working with her.

Soon then, Jim got into his formal attire and headed to Zen punctually. The executives assembled in the conference room and Jim professionally greeted every time they arrive. As Jim talks to the executives the new Marketing Executive of Zen entered the room as her assistant opened the door for her.

“Good morning. I’m sorry for being late. Shall we start?” She apologized and greeted professionally ending her statement with her very charming smile.

“Mayim?” Jim whispered as he was stunned seeing her enter the office unexpectedly.

The executives fixed themselves and their documents as they took a seat. Mayim smiled at Jim as she took her seat. “Shall we start?” She asked him. Jim barely tried to stay on focus.

It’s Mayim. It’s her. Is this real?

He talked in his mind as he was on a starstruck seeing her once again. Mayim didn’t know that his sight was locked on her for she had her eyes on the papers on the table for reviewing.

“Mr. Parsons?” An executive tried to call his attention for he seemed stoned. “Oh. Uhm. I’m sorry.” He apologized and proceeded with his presentation.

Jim was quite nervous but it all faded away when he saw her smile at him softly seeming to tell him that he can do it. He then remembered how she would always cheer for her every before her meeting when they were still together and it encouraged him to present well. As the presentation was over, the executives expressed their impression with how well he was able to deliver the ideas and thoughts to them and he was glad to know about it.

The members started to leave the room leaving Jim and Mayim behind. “That was great.” She told him. Jim didn’t expect her to talk to him for he was actually thinking that she’s mad at him or something. “Well. Yeah. It was your idea. It couldn’t be better.” He replied. She smiled at him seeming to end the conversation and turned back ready to walk out the room but before she was able to, Jim called her attention. “Uhm, Mayim?” She turned back to him again. “Yes?” She asked. “Uhm… Would it be possible that we could…like uhm, go out tomorrow? For some coffee at the cafe at the 2nd block? Or something? If you don’t have any plans and if it’s alright?” He asked hesitantly. It took a whole before she was able to reply, she didn’t expect he would have the courage to ask her out. Suddenly, Mr. Law, one of Zen’s executive, came in the room.

“Hey, Mayim. Would you like to go out tomorrow for a dinner?” He asked her. Jim felt a bit insecure. Mayim smiled. “Thank you for the invite but I have plans tomorrow. Sorry.” She declined politely. “How about this weekend?” He asked. “I’ll check through that.” She replied. “Alright. Tell me when you’re free then.” Mr. Law left.

“If you have plans tomorrow it’s okay. I totally understand that you have a busy schedule.” Jim immediately spoke after hearing her decline Mr. Law. Mayim bowed her head a bit and smiled. “Yeah.” She uttered. Jim’s heart broke a bit. He began to overthink that she’s not into him anymore because she declined his invitation too. “See you tomorrow at the cafe, Mr. Parsons.” She told him and left. It took sometime before it sank to him.

She said she has plans tomorrow? She declined Mr. Law’s invitation for me? Her plans tomorrow includes me?

He happily thought as his heart skipped a bit as it sank to him.

Jim came to the cafe early with a bouquet of roses for her. He ordered a sandwich while waiting. Just like the old days, Mayim came on time and he handed her the bouquet and assisted her as she sits. “Wow. Thank you. You shouldn’t have bothered.” She told him as he handed her the bouquet. Jim immediately took the attention of the waiter to let her take her order.

“I’ll just have club house and a coffee with milk and splenda.” She told the waiter. “Anything else?” The waiter asked. “That would be all.” She replied.

“So… Uhm. I’m glad you made it.” Jim said trying to start a conversation normally. “Yeah.” She replied shortly. He felt a bit awkward, her reply was kind of dead end but he wants to continue talk to her. “Uhm. So… How are you?” He tried and felt shit for talking like a non sense boy. “I mean, since when did you start working at Zen?” He rephrased himself. “Oh. Well, about four years ago I think?” She replied seeming to give a dead end again. Suddenly, the waiter came and served their orders. They continued conversing as they finish their meals.

“So where are you staying?” Mayim asked and it relieved Jim as she started a conversation, he really thought of the right words to reply with. “I stay at Bel-Air hotel right now. Good for about three days but I might extend it for like two weeks or so.” He replied. “Extend? For what?” She asked as she took a bite on her sandwich. “I didn’t expect to see you and now that I did I really want to see you more again.” He replied honestly making her a bit stunned.

“You don’t have to do that.” She told him. “Isn’t okay with you? Don’t you want to see me too?” He asked hesitantly. “No, it’s not that…just, no.” She tried to explain but she decided to keep it to herself. He broke inside as he heard her say that she doesn’t wanna see him as much as he wants to see her. “Oh… Uhm…” He tried to respond well but he couldn’t think of anything good to say. Mayim took her phone out and checked at the time. “I should get going.” She informed him cutting the awkward situation out. “Uhm. Now? I mean, okay. Uhm. Thank you. Thank you for…for your time.” He replied and stood up assisting her. “Thank you too. It was nice seeing you again, Jim.” She told him and smiled. She took a few steps and Jim walked with her. “No. You… You don’t have to walk me out. I’m good.” She told him. “Oh. Uhm alright. Uhm, take care. Thank you for your time again.” He replied as he watches her walk away.

It was 12nn and Mayim decided to go home early from work. Her driver drove her on her way home until she noticed a car that seems to follow her. 

“Do you want me to check it out ma’am?” The driver asked her and she nodded. Her driver pulled over and went down the car and the car following them also stopped. Mayim watched them through the side mirrors. She was then surprised to see Jim. She went down and told her driver to wait in the car.

“Why were you following?” She asked. “Uhm… I just… Wanna ask you out but I thought it would be quite unprofessional to go to your office just to ask you to hang out.” He replied shyly. “So you think it’s more appropriate to ask me out in the middle of the road?” She asked making him feel nervous that he’s messing things up with her. “I guess?” He replied mischievously. A smile grew on Mayim’s lips as she heard his reply. “Okay. I’ll be free all day tomorrow.” She replied enlightening him. “It’s a yes? Great! I’ll pick you up on your place tomorrow after lunch? Would that be okay?” He asked cheerfully. “Sure.” She replied and smiled at him. Then she walked back to her car and drove away leaving him behind. As she left, Jim yelled in happiness after she accepted his invite.

-

Jim and Mayim started to hanged out again but neither of them had the courage to bring up and talk about what happened in the past and it just made things between them a little bit vague.

-

One time, after they had their dinner they decided to ride a ferris wheel nearby the restaurant they went to. There, they had the chance to talk a little more personally.

“So how are you and Rihanna? Your child must be around five already right?” She asked. “Oh. That.” He uttered with a sigh. “Why?” She wondered as she looked outside checking the view. “Well. The truth is she wasn’t really pregnant.” He spilled and it stunned her a bit. She moved her sight to him and listened closely. “What do you mean?” She asked. “It just turns out that she pretended to be pregnant to get what she wants. We stopped seeing each other. She stopped bugging me as well.” He shared. Mayim sympathized with him. She held his hand and stroked it with her thumb. “It’s fine. At least you went through it.” She comforted him and gave him a soft smile. He looked at her hand touching his hand and moved his sight ending up gazing at her sweet smile. “Yeah.” He uttered softly. Not that he realized how his face was moving closer to her, she suddenly dodged herself from his attempt to kiss her. Then, they reached the bottom of the ferris wheel and they went down. Mayim immediately informed him that she should get going walking away really quick leaving him behind. “Mayim!” He called stopping her. She turned back to him and waited for him to speak. “I’m sorry.” He apologized for his actions. “What are we trying to do here, Jim?” She asked him but he was unable to answer. “Are we trying to bring back what we had?” She followed up but then he was still unable to defend himself. Mayim lost patience waiting for his response and so she turned back and walked away.

“I love you, Mayim.” He said without any hesitation hating to see her leave. She was stunned. She stopped moving but refused to turn back at him concealing the emotions shown through her eyes. “I still love you. I always did and I always will.” He continued. That’s the time she had the courage to face him despite her eyes being quite teary. “Why didn’t you tell me that before? Why didn’t you tell me that during the time that I needed it the most?” She countered.

“I know I should have said it a long time ago but I was too afraid. Afraid that when I tell you how much I love you, you will set your expectations from me and I was afraid that I can’t meet any of them. I was afraid that I am not yet good enough for you. I thought… I still have to work on myself to be a better person before I let myself be your boyfriend. I was insecure.” He explained. Mayim was unable to hold back her tears as she listened to him. “But I swear, you meant so much to me. I didn’t even expect to love anyone as much as I loved you. I swear that it was not in my plan to ever hurt you, Mayim, please believe me.” He pleaded losing his faith to her. “But you’ve hurt me.” She points out. “I know. And it’s the worst thing I could ever do.” He admitted.

“And if you wouldn’t forgive me now, it’s alright. I totally understand. But that doesn’t mean that I would stop saying how sorry I am for causing all those tears, because I am truly sorry… And I love you. I can say it without hesitation because I am now sure that I am ready to be a better person for you.” He continued. She wasn’t able to contain herself, she ambulated closer to him and landed a kiss on his lips. As she wrapped her arms around his neck, he slowly rested his palms on her hips as he kisses her back. They held their foreheads against each other and smiled after a few moments of kissing. Jim wiped her tears swarming her cheeks with his thumb. “I love you.” He uttered. She smiled at him and moved forming a distance between them as they held each others hands. “I love you too.” She replied. Soon after, Jim drove her back to her place and exchanged their good nights and I love you-s.

The next day, Jim visited Mayim at her place knocking at her door with a bouquet of roses and chocolates for her. Little did he expect to see a young boy open the door for him and stunned upon seeing him. The young boy immediately hugged him so tight. Mayim then walked towards the door and happiness filled her heart upon seeing her son, Jimmy, hugging Jim.

Mayim walked closer to the two boys. She let him in as Jimmy held his hand guiding him to the couch. Jimmy looked so fascinated seeing his father for the first time. He sat beside him. Mayim sat closer to them and began explaining to Jim.

Jimmy was Jim and Mayim’s love child. Mayim was unaware of her own pregnancy until she landed on Los Angeles and that disabled her to let him know about their child. Also, the fact that she thought that Rihanna was really pregnant with Jim’s child convinced her that letting him know isn’t necessary anymore for he may have a peaceful and happy family with Rihanna already.

Jim was badly stunned upon hearing the truth. While Mayim was explaining to Jim, Jimmy seemed floating, he was just staring at him seeming deaf of what they have been talking about. “Daddy.” He uttered out if nowhere silencing his parents. Jim looked at Jimmy and imprinted all his features in his mind. “I named him after you. And I made him completely aware that you are his father.” She shared. A smile grew on Jim’s lips as the fact that he has a beautiful son with the her sank to him. He hugged Jimmy so tight and there was no way that Jimmy could hide his happiness upon his face. After some cuddling, with his son, Jim went back to Mayim and talked about him coping up, them settling down and their status. Soon then, they officially became a couple and continued dating and going out but with Jimmy this time.

-

One afternoon, as Mayim arrived after fetching Jimmy from school, she entered the house surprised seeing a path of rose petals heading to the garden. She recalled the old days when Jim used to surprise her with this for her birthday but she thought it wasn’t anyone’s birthday. She walked with Jimmy following the path and ended seeing Jim and a romantic meal set up.

Jimmy ran into the chair and sat down as he gazed into the food served. Mayim walked towards Jim with a smile. Jim held her hips and her arms were around his neck. “What is this for?” She asked softly. “Nothing. Just to remind you how much I love you.” He replied. “You don’t have to remind me. I know and I love you too.” She replied.

Jim made a small distance from her. “I’m always insecure that maybe you’ll forget that you love me too so I thought maybe a ring would make me sure that you won’t forget that.” He then knelt in front of her slowly stunning her as he pulled a ring from his pocket. Mayim was hell of speechless and startled as she watched him.

“Mayim. I never thought that I would ever feel such strong emotions for anyone. I never cared about making a woman cry because of me but when I met you? I don’t know. Everything changed. You made me realize my worth? You made me genuinely happy? You believed in me? You made me complete and I couldn’t think anymore of how my life would be without you. I know I missed a lot to you since the last time I made you cry but I sincerely want to make it up to you… And to… Jimmy.” He confessed. “So… Mayim. Will you let me complete you bucket list?” He asked. “What? You still remember that?” She laughed as tears of happiness swarmed her eyes. “Will you marry me?” He continued. Jimmy covered his mouth in surprise and happiness seeing his father propose to his mom. “Yes yes yes yes!!” Jimmy cheered silently.

“Yes.” Mayim cracked the answer and turned more emotional. Jim stood from his knees and embraced her tightly. She cried on his chest. “I love you, I love you, I love you…” Jim mumbled repeatedly as he kissed her head.

Later then, after all the emotions swarmed their hearts, they went to the table and had their meal together as a beginning of their soon to be, happy family.
