Twenty Years Have Passed Now, Twenty Years Of Missing Her Every Day

I rode the train into Oslo from the airport. A young blonde girl talked to me, she was a music student from Odesa. I guessed, didn't really know, maybe 20? 22? She said she lived in a student block near the University. She asked a lot about America, she had dreams.

I knew a lot about dreams, in every country I visited girls had dreams. Dreams of America. I tried to be honest, but I gave into her phantasy and told her about where I lived. When we arrived at her stop she begged me to come see her apartment's, so I got off and walked the many blocks to this awful concrete structure. Up the stairs, no elevator. A small room, maybe 120 sq ft, maybe less. Bathroom, one down the hall.

A small bed, she sat down and asked me if I liked her. She opened her shirt, a small cross on a chain. Did I like her? Did I want to see her breasts? I looked down at her, as I was standing, and told her I was tired from my trip, I needed to find my hotel. She smiled, disappointed. She would walk me to my hotel, it wasn't far. Did I want to kiss her?

The hotel wasn't close, not to me, ten blocks at least. I checked in and she came up with me. The room was small, but it did have an on suite bath. She said she wanted to wait for me, while I showered. When I came out of the shower she was naked under the covers, her clothes on the small chair by the window. She lifted the covers, her young body in full view, did I like her?

I kissed her, too hungry, I apologized. She said she wanted more, to be desired.

The time change, a young woman, the moment, I gave in to desire. I hadn't made love in a long time, she responded, unbridled. Sex was the objective. We orgasmed several times, deep mind bending. Not since college had I orgasmed like that. I slept for nine hours. When I woke up she was beside me.

It took months for me to arrange a visa, a student visa to a school near me. I longed for her those months waiting, held her when she arrived. She lived with me for three years. Her visa expiring, she went to New York, and disappeared into the Ukrainian community. I get a card now and then, no news, except I know she is alive.
