I am in the office working on yet another thing for school. Tye came in with a blue tube of medicated blistex and asked me if it was Daddy's. He found it in Rachel's bathroom. It caught me off guard. Brian used this kind of chapstick from the moment I met him. I remember him putting it on during our first date, and him commenting that he always had chapped lips. I remember how many times I would cringe when I figured out that a tube of that blistex had gone through the dryer and I now had to treat all the clothes with shout to get out the oil stains! Before I could respond, he pulled off the lid and started putting some on. Then he kissed me great big on the cheek., and the smell came over me and nearly stopped my breathing. I remembered how soft his lips were on mine, how good it felt to have him close to me, to kiss me. I remembered how he would have several tubes in different places. And I remember how hard it has been to once in a while find those tubes where I least expect it. Like once I reached in my purse for a pen and grabbed the blistex. I didn't even know where it had come from!
Tye has now kissed me like 5 times, and so I have a clear coat of blistex on my right cheek that smells just like Brian.
I had forgotten. And now I remember.
