STONE HEARTED C.E.O 172 Change is the only constant
"It is good to see you Jake", I told him."Thanks for agreeing to see me", he said. Why was he being so formal? Our relationship wasn't anything like this before. What had changed between us? Had Heidi already been successful in breaking our friendship?"Why do you say that? This is your home too", I said mildly."I have come to see Dane and try to talk to him about us. I don't want to lose him", said Jake painfully. Has he already decided to lose his best friend for a fake beauty? It hurts me to even admit Heidi had seduced Jake away from us."You won't lose him Jake", I said to him."But yet he didn't come down to see me", said Jake."You know him well Jake. You have hurt him and Dane doesn't react the same way as us when he is hurt", I reminded him."You are right. I will wait for him then", he said with a shrug."I don't know how to say this so that I'm not offending you. Are you sure that Heidi is in love?", I asked him."I don't know about that but she cares for me deeply. I had

"Thanks, Ziva now I know who is my True friend", said Jake."Ziva don't trust him", cautioned Dane."Let her decide man it is her choice", said Jake."I want to be friends Jake no matter what happens", said I."Ziva I can promise that Heidi won't do anything like that ever again. If you give her another chance I can promise you that everything is going to be alright", said Jake."That is enough man. You better stay away from my wife. I won't allow anyone to hurt her ever again", said Dane."So it is alright with you if the hurt is caused by you? You are such a hypocrite Dane", said Jake."Boys stop fighting", I admonished him."Dane I have come to invite you to a double date. I will text you the details", said Jake."I'm not coming to your fucking date. It will never work out grow up man", said Dane.He just shrugged as though he wasn't affected by his comments. But I knew the sharpness of Dane's words had cut him real deep. But Jake would never show it. He is like me that way."We wi

"Talk to me Heidi what is happening?", I asked her."I have nothing to talk especially to you", said Heidi with a shrug."Are you kidding me? Jake is going ballistic over how much in love you both are", I told her."Why don't you go and ask him if you are not going to believe what I say?", she hissed at me."Heidi it is not my fault I stopped believing you. You have always lied to me", I said."There must be some reason for that because you always ruin things for me", she said."I have always tried to help you", I said to her."Stop lying big sister. You can't stomach my happiness", said she."Are you happy?", I asked her."Yes", she said."Is this because of Jake?", I asked her."Yes", she said with a shrug."Then I'm happy for you. I thought you were using him for money", I said to her."You always assume the worst in me. You think you are the only one who is perfect", she said with a laugh."I'm sorry to say Heidi that is because of you. I only wish you all the happiness now that y

"What did she say to you?", I asked curious."I didn't listen", he shrugged."What did Jake say?", asked Dane."I didn't hear as well", I told with a huff."Babe please be serious. I want to know", he said."We just chatted that is all. I told him that Heidi didn't love him", I said."What did he say in response?", asked Dane."He said he already knew it. Maybe he was working on it. He sounds pretty confident that he will be able to beat you ultimately and find his way to her heart", I said."What the fuck? Did he say those things?", asked Dane. Disgust was evident on his face."Well not in many words but that was the gist of our conversation", I told him."I don't care what they do as long as they stay away from you", said Dane."I don't think it is easy for Jake or us. He is our family", I reminded him."He used to be our family now he is an enemy", said Dane."You didn't just say that. He can't help whom he falls in love", I told him."Sounds poetic but is utter nonsense. Would you

"It is a bad idea", said Charlie."I know", I said with a sigh."You can't simply warn a person about their death because you saw it in a dream", said Charlie."Yep, but it was very scary. I would be a bad friend if I didn't tell him the truth", I confessed to her."But being a bad friend is better than being a liar because that is what you will become because dreams don't happen unless you make them come True", said Charlie."I don't want this dream to come True. It is already very much scary", I told her."Fair point. So what will you do?", asked Charlie."I will try to make her see the truth. Maybe then she will see how happy Jake would make her then I don't have to worry about the dream", I said to her."But you are going way Overboard for a dream", said Charlie."You think so?", I asked her."Yep", she said nodding her head."Fine I will let it go", I said reluctantly."But I like your idea of being friends with Heidi again. So you will get a better understanding of her devious m

"Herald will take you to hospital", I heard the order as soon as I pressed my ears to the phone."Dane that is very unnecessary. I'm perfectly fine", I said to him."No, you are not. A doctor should check you out. You don't know half the time what you are doing", said Dane."Come on stop being so obtuse. I know my mind very well. Stop making it sound like I was crazy", I said with a sigh."Baby I didn't mean it in a bad way. I want you to be in good health", he said."I'm doing great. I will consult a doctor when and if it is necessary", I told him."Fine, you win. But the next time you throw up I will send you to the hospital in an ambulance", he threatened me. He knows how much I hate being loud."OK", I said ending the call. Thanks, Fathima for doing this favour. I was launching on the couch nibbling on the Citrus fruits. I was watching the Turkish series which is all rage now. They are much better than watching Bachelor.I was bored there is no point in waiting around. I felt alre

"I can explain", I said as soon as I saw Dane lounging on the bed. He gave me a hard look. I took a heavy breath. This is going to take a lot of time."I'm waiting", said Dane."I was afraid that we will lose Jake. He is now my friend too. So I was making sure that she didn't have any plans of leaving him", said I."Leave Jake? You don't know Jake at all. He had left women enough times perhaps the same number as your age or maybe it is double or triple if I'm being accurate", said Dane."That must be different. He wasn't in love those times", I argued back."Jake is always in love with a beautiful woman", said Dane."I can't lose Jake. That is why I decided that Heidi should be allowed back into my life. Jake had assured them that she won't try anything like that ever again. Her desperation drove her to do that madness", I told him."I don't care Ziva. I don't want to know the reasons why she tried to fuck me while I was sleeping. It is sick as it is. I don't wish to be involved with
STONE HEARTED C.E.O 179 Another big news
It has been a month since I saw Heidi under cover now things had changed a lot. Jake is back in our life and so is Heidi. Her Instagram account is in full swing. She had gained back every follower that she lost. I was very much happy for her."Hey", said Dane.I opened my eyes to his beautiful face. I kissed him soundly on his lips. He kissed me back. His hands caressing my tummy."I think you have gained weight", said him."I have?", I asked him in surprise. I was often body-shamed as a kid. Now is no different. I was very slim but I had put on some extra pounds."It is a good thing. Don't stop eating", he said worriedly.He had a right to be scared. Most women had a love-hate relationship with food thanks to body shaming and eating disorders."I think it is all Fathima's cooking. She often makes these lip-smacking dishes I always take a second helping", I confessed."As you should", said Dane."Do I look good?", I asked shyly."You always look good baby. Let me check for a better ev
