"I can't tell you that Jazz. Its related to Jack. I don't want to reveal anything about his life that he is not comfortable with. I am sorry."

"No no don't be sorry. It's me who should apologize. I think I crossed my limit there." She affirmed and looked back on the road. Stefen did not reply to that.

What were you thinking of Jasmine Reyes? You should have thought twice before asking him that. Idiot.

***

For the whole week, no one mentioned anything that happened on that day. Jack rarely interacted with Stefen. It was an odd thing for Alice and Jasmine to see the two best- friends behave so distant. Stefen looked guilty and Jack had no expression on his face whenever Stefen and Jack were together. Alice could not ask to Stefen or Jack about what had happened between them. Same was the case for Jasmine.

It was finally the day when Stefen and Jack would be appointed in the Accounts department and Alice would be appointed in HR department. Alice was happy to have her department changed.

    Stefen stopped hearing Alice scream and he looked behind to see the cause only to scream out louder as he saw that they were sliding towards him. "Stefen?" Jasmine tapped Stefen's shoulder from behind not knowing what was going on. Stefen turned back to see Jasmine when his body was struck by the out of control bodies of Jack and Alice. They dashed on Stefen's back making him lose his balance too and since Jasmine was in front of Stefen she too fell when Stefen's body pushed hers. The four of them serially fell on the floor. Stefen fell on top of Jasmine and Jack and Alice both fell on their shoulders facing each other. Jasmine's heart skipped a beat when she noticed Stefen. Stefen had balanced his body with his hand making sure Jasmine was not crushed by his body. He was staring at her and didn't stop gazing neither did Jasmine. She always loved to see his deep blue eyes. Jasmine could not deny the sparkles her body used to feel whenever he was close. Their feelings for each other

    Stefen, Jasmine and Alice were sending death glares to Jack. Jack noticed the eyes that were throwing daggers at him and turned to face their owners. He gave a weak smile and avoided their eyes them immediately.The video was of the incident that had happened just few minutes ago. Sandra was watching them through the CCTV camera. Jack dashed with Alice and they slid together. They looked like a real couple and that looked like a romantic scene for any third person watching it (if they ignore the screaming part.) Jack and Stefen had fallen taking the girls with them and the way their eyes were locked seemed like their hearts had already been exchanged."Care to explain this?" Sandra asked calmly. "Was their a shoot I was not informed about?" she was polite."..." No one replied. Everyone looked towards the floor as if she was their principal in school."Did you guys have any trouble understanding my question?" She raised her eyebrows and leaned forward resting her hands on the desk in f

    "Her name is Alison. She will be interning with you guys." No one there was actually listening to what Sandra was saying.Alison had worn a white shirt and a coat on top and a pencil skirt. It seemed like a perfect fit for her body. She had, not perfect but beautiful curves. She was dressed formally and had the right amount of makeup. No one could at that moment believe that she was the same Alison who had once cheated on Jack and was trying her luck with Stefen. Since the room was filled with silence, Sandra continued speaking, "Alison, this is Jack, Alice, Jasmine and-" "Stefen," Alison completed Sandra's sentence with an evident flirtatious smile."Yes, looks like you both know each other very well," Sandra said looking contented.Jasmine's heart pinched hearing that. "Actually, we all know each other... it's not just Stefen,” she spoke without thinking twice. She was feeling better after saying that, it was as if her heart had found peace and she did not regret.Stefen was on c

    "Then I can show you around. I hope you don't have any problem with that, do you?" It was Alice who spoke this time. She winked at Jasmine that said I got you girl and focused back on Alison.Jasmine grinned looking towards Alice. Stefen saw Jasmine's reaction and he couldn't help but chuckle. Alison thought for a while but she had no comeback for that. Jack saw the rage hidden behind the straight face of Alison."Actually... I will be her guide for today." Jack said in a serious tone as if he had thought well and deep about it. His words shook Jasmine's and Stefen's ground. Both knew the history they had and yet Jack himself stepped forward to help Alison when there was no any reason to do so. Jasmine had never been so addled her whole life. Alice also looked towards Jack to see why he had said so."That's enough now," Sandra shouted as she stood up from her chair and banged her palms in the table.There is the real Sandra. Jasmine's mind relaxed."Jack you want to help her, GO ON, bu

    She tried moving her eyeballs towards Stefen to see his reaction on that, turning her head just a little bit, but he caught Jasmine stealing glances of him. Jasmine immediately turned her head in the opposite direction and blushed harder."Shut up Jack," Jasmine said and walked away carrying her tray.Alice too got up from her seat. "I will take your tray," she said and Jack smiled. She placed his tray on top of hers and walked away following Jasmine.Jack kept smiling at the walking figure of Alice.Stefen was just standing and smiling towards Jack watching him watch Alice go "Ah huh J, good luck buddy," Stefen patted on Jack's shoulder. He blinked and walked away.Jack realized what Stefen was talking about and he immediately drank the water from the bottle that was on the table to calm himself. Alice?He was recalling few events of that day. He grabbed Alice on her waist as they slid together on that slippery floor, they both fell and he was lost in her eyes, he cared for her. He to

    "What else do you expect Alison?" Jack all of a sudden had a rude and deep tone. He had never spoken so harshly to anyone. It was once in a blue moon thing for everyone around him to see that side of him. He sounded like he was controlling himself and waiting for a moment when he could vent all his anger at once."I did not expect anything does not mean you bring me to the terrace," Alison retorted. "Didn't you say you would show me around?""Oh cut the crap Alison," Jack did not let her speak any further. "Play this card of being innocent and demure in front of others. I know your true colors."Alison remained silent, for a second guilt overtook her but she composed herself in no time.Jack ignored her presence and walked to sit on the same cemented bench where he and Alice sat a week ago.Alison just looked here and there and rolled her eyes again and walked ahead to take the seat beside Jack."You know Sandra asked you to be my guide for the day not bore me to death," she sounded di

    Jack turned back at her with a shocked expression. He did not reply, not because he did not want to, but because he could not. That was the question whose answer he himself was trying to find.Alison laughed a short laughter, "You look like a thief whose crime has been caught.""Shut up," He said and looked away."You are not even denying.""I don't owe you any explanation." Jack stared at her eyes with irritation and rage. He could not stand her anymore and her question irritated him to the point where is heart burned with rage, "you know what, I don't care anymore. I am going back. I don't care if Sandra sees me and questions me. I just don't care anymore about anything," he stood up and walked inside the building.***Jack walked out of the elevator as he was back to his own floor. He only walked few steps when he came across Sandra."Oh Jack. Are you already finished showing Alison around?" She sounded unsure.Jasmine also walked out of her department carrying some files in her han

    Jasmine entered the car and sat on the passenger's side as usual. "Hi," she said with a smile as she put on the safety belt. Stefen gave a weak smile and drove the car. She instantly knew that something was off. "What happened?" she asked in a polite tone. "Nothing.”"Stefen. I know something's bothering you. I can sense it. Tell me." She maintained her tone. "You know things about me even before I tell you?" Stefen asked trying to divert her mind and divert his own mind as well. Jasmine was shocked after hearing him say that. "You are walking away from my initial question," She said to save herself. "What's the matter?" "Well..." Stefen glanced at Jasmine and back on the road, "I got my department transfer letter today." He said. "And?" Jasmine asked trying to hide her excitement. She remembered what Stefen had said when they met for the first time. "Right now I am working in the IT department. We do rotations after every 3 months. I guess I'll be in accounts department very

    Hey Jack, You are reading this letter, meaning I am not around you anymore. It’s funny when you come to think of it, we have been living under the same roof for so long but when it came to leaving, I don’t have the guts to face you and say my final goodbye. So I am writing you a letter, a letter that represents my cowardice. Thank you for giving me your friendship and the care that came along. I never realized that I had grown used to your care until now. You remember that night on the balcony you asked me ‘How you were portrayed in my eyes.’ I would like to answer that again, You Jack, you are the most annoying and stubborn person I have ever seen in my entire life. You seriously tore all our hard works into pieces without thinking deep just because you did not want me to leave. You bunk working hours and somehow always catch Sandra’s attention. You ranked 1st when it came to getting on my nerves in the initial days at the office. But… you were also the one who stood with a handke

    “It feels weird to be in this room and not see Alice,” all the memories with Alice flushed back the minute they stepped in the bedroom. “I miss her too,” Stefen said. “Come,” he pulled her in and closed the door behind. Jasmine’s sadness turned into nervousness the moment she heard their bedroom door shut. She was starting to have second thoughts on letting Stefen stay with her for the night. Stefen left the hold of her hand and went to lay on the bed. He stretched his one arm on the other side of the bed, a bit lower from the pillow and titled his head, asking her to come and sleep beside him. She was happy to see him not in rush for anything and the respect he gave her and their relationship. She walked on the other side of the bed and laid on top of his hand as he caressed her hair and then embraced her back. She also hugged him tight as she rested her head near his chest, feeling his heart beat. He kissed her forehead and pulled her closer to him, “good night my princess, swee

    “Are you sure about this?” Stefen said as he kept both his hands on both side of his pants pocket… helpless. “Yeah,” Alice said as she was almost done packing. She had reached Jack's apartment before anyone else and she had changed into her comfortable clothes as she started packing all her things up. “When will you be back? You will be right?” Jasmine asked standing beside Stefen, equally helpless. “I don’t know,” Alice gave a false smile. “Can we do anything to make you stay?” Stefen asked. “I HAVE TO GO. The plane ticket is expensive you know…” Alice laughed, completely failing to prove that she was fine with all this. “But I thought you were staying. you said you’d throw away the ticket,” Jasmine asked befuddled. “Well then, it’s good I didn’t, right?” She forced smile again. “Can I ask you for a last favor? Can you drop me to the airport?” Alice asked Stefen. “That's not gonna be a problem but... let’s just wait for some time. Jack must be on his way. Let me call him-” S

    Jack looked at Alice hearing her as he narrowed his eyebrows, questioning her what she meant. “You don’t have anything to worry about,” Alice looked back at Jack with tears threating to fall down anytime. “Because we are not together… and we will never be together,” tears rolled down her cheek as she said those words. But she immediately wiped her tears and smiled. She gave one last glance to Jack and she walked away without another word. “Alice?” Jasmine followed her. Jack stood still, processing what Alice said. Just few hours back Alice promised to be by his side despite any hurdles and now she was contradicting her own words. Realizing that he can’t let her go he walked forward to go after her but he was held back by Alison. “Where are you going?” she questioned him. “Don’t tell me you are going after her after hearing all the things I’ve just said,” she was exasperated. Seeing that he was being the extra in the conversation Stefen approached Jack and tapped his back, “I’ll g

    Alice reached the top floor and when she went to the roof no one was there. “Ha,” she gave a short sarcastic laugh. “Another prank-” But before she could say anything more, she was pushed from behind and she fell on her knees and hands. The slit dress contributed in bruising her knees. She turned around to see the person and was out of words at the sight. Alison stood tall in front of her with a cunning smile. “Hello there! Are you hurt?” sarcasm was evident in her voice. “What the- it was you all along?” Alice said slowly getting back on her feet, dusting her hands, suppressing the pain her new bruises gave her. She was shocked. “Surprise,” Alison moved her hands from her head to toe presenting herself. “Do you like my surprise?” “There,” Stefen pointed at a TV. “There’s Alice.” “She's on the rooftop," Jasmine exclaimed. "Let's go." "Okay, I will call Jack and tell him to be there," Jasmine picked her phone and dialed his number. They rushed towards the elevator and pressed o

    “Okay everyone,” the host stood with a mic and grabbed all the attention with his voice audible from all the speakers from all the directions. “The most awaited time has finally arrived. Grab your partner and be ready, because today the sun will set only after witnessing 'A Beautiful Couple Dance'. So hurry up and ask for the permission to dance… LIGHTS,” the lights in the hall all went off and in the center blue and white lights glowed, making the air more calm and peaceful. Couples started coming forward and dancing along the music, under the blue and white light in a slow and romantic tune. The lights gave a winter vibe and the dance between two hearts warmth the place. “Can I have the honor?” Stefen opened his hand. “It would be mine,” Jasmine placed her hand on top and they walked towards the dancing area. “Will you dance with me?” Jack asked… unsure. “I don’t know, I am a terrible dancer,” she wasn’t lying. “Then that makes the two of us.” Alice chuckled and accepted his h

    Stefen looked at the person and chuckled. “Yeah, we are where we should be,” he made her sit down and he himself took a chair beside her. “Hello Mr. Wills!” Jasmine said in a low voice and the man diverted his focus from his PA to Jasmine. “Oh, didn’t see you two arrive,” he smiled. “And please Jazz, call me Uncle, end the formalities,” he raised his eyebrows and nodded wanting Jasmine to approve. Jasmine just smiled and Mr. Wills went back to talking to his PA. Jasmine pulled Stefen by his coat and whispered in his ears. “Why is Mr. Wills talking this sweet and how does he know my nickname?” Stefen laughed hearing her. “Hey, what’s so funny?” “Why don’t you ask these questions directly to him?” “What?” Jasmine’s eyes widened knowing his intention. “No Stefen, no no-” “Dad?” “Hmm?” Mr. Wills looked back at Stefen. “Dad?” Jasmine was addled as she looked at Mr. Wills. “My girlfriend here wanted to know why you asked her to call you Uncle and how do you know her nickname.” “

    As they were walking down the stairs the boys were waiting for them with their hands in their pant pockets and legs slightly parted. Jack had worn white shirt whereas Stefen had worn a black shirt. However it did not do a good job when it came to hiding their well-built body. Both had worn black coat on top and black pants. Both the boys and their cool pose flew along the thin air when they saw the girls. Jasmine walked down with a shy smile as she saw Stefen and his intent gaze. She looked down on her steps to avoid his eyes to which Stefen smiled. He was swooned. On the other hand, Jack was frozen. He had seen her after so long though they were living under the same roof and after all the distance he suffered, this view blew him away. Alice was walking beside Jasmine, her eyes only focused on his. She noticed how her heartbeat rose seeing Jack and she was happy feeling that loud pump inside her. She knew that her decision to be fearless was the best one because she could never let

    It was a hectic hour in the hall. People were rushing around, frowning and screaming at each other. “Are you freaking deaf? I said only white lilies will be put on the stage. What the heck are you doing you freak. Are you colorblind?” the manager shouted at a staff. “Sorry sir, I will do it correctly this time,” the staff said pitifully. “You better…” the man said. “And you fool…” he shouted at another staff. “Are you going to finish that next month? Are you preparing all these for your own wedding or what?” “Sorry sir!” “Hurry up.” The staff nodded. “Mr. Gill?” a man in a blue suit called out the manager. “Yes, yes sir,” the manager responded. “Is everything ready?” “Yes sir the staffs are doing their work. Just an hour at most and we will be ready.” “All the top businessmen in the country will be here this evening, make sure everything is arranged perfectly. From the décor to the meals, I want everything to be PER-FECT.” “Yes sir, I’m at it,” the manager nodded. “Good,”
