Hello readers(if there is any), I hope you're all doing well. I wanted to wish you all a happy new year and I hope you're enjoying the vacation. I just wanted to apologize for not updating for so so long and I promise that I will update at least twice a week from now on.
Jan’s POV I sat in my car waiting for her to get ready and as I was waiting the image of them hugging can’t be erased from my mind. Questions are popping inside my head and I’m afraid of their answers. If they didn’t notice I was there would they have kissed? Or are they just friends like she was admitting? But friends don’t get intimate like that they don’t hug like that. We were once friends and we didn’t hug like that. As I was lost in my thought I heard the car door open and then close. I looked at the passenger seat and saw her fastening her seat belt. I started the car and all of those questions are and scenarios are messing up with my head. I know I told her that I don’t want her explanation but I know that if I didn’t hear them I might explode so I pulled the breaks in the empty streets causing the car to stop suddenly “Oh my god Jan, are you fu****g crazy?? You could have killed us!!” she shouted. I looked at her and then uttered a single word “explain” she looked at me in su
Sarah’s POV Well, the day in the office has ended quickly. There were a few things to look on today but other than that there wasn’t much as everyone went home early to get ready for the party. After I have collected my things I was heading out in order to go home and get ready when I heard Jan say “Wait for 5 minutes and I will drive you home” I know we agreed to be friends but deep down I know that he will try to be more than that and I can’t give him hope. My life isn’t here and doing long distance isn’t an option. “No. It’s okay. I can go in a taxi” I said. “No, I insist just wait for me for 5 minutes” he said smiling. I sat down on my desk waiting for him when we heard a knock on the door. “Come in” Jan said. The door opened and Fred entered the room with his bright smile on his face. “Oh. Hey Sarah. Good to see you” he said cheerfully. “Hey Fred. Good to see you too” I replied with the same cheerfulness. “Hey man. Ready for tonight?” Fred asked looking to Jan. Did Fred know abou
Jan’s POV After driving Sarah to the mansion I returned home to get ready. When I was about to finish, I heard my phone ring. The second I saw who the caller was I didn’t know whether to smile or to cry. I picked the phone and said “Hi, mom” “Honey, the most amazing, gorgeous and genius son in the world. How are you dear?” she asked. I think I know why my mom is calling me it’s either to tell me that she found a new girl for me to see as she wanted me to get married as soon as possible or she has found out about Sarah and the party or both. My mom isn’t very fond of Sarah since we were dating in the past. She used to say that she was the precious gem of the Yorukan family and that she was a spoiled kid which makes her act like a brat just like all of the rich families daughters. Maybe her opinion is partially true that Sarah is the precious gem of the Yorukan family and she was indeed spoiled but she wasn’t a brat and she definitely wasn’t like the rest of the daughters. On the contra
Sarah’s POV As I entered the hall the party was held in I found all the eyes are on me as if they saw some celebrity. I spotted grandpa, Jan, my father and my sister Zahra standing with each other. Speaking of Zahra and my father they also arrived today as well as all the rest of our family which was very suspicious to me. They have always missed some parties held here in Turkey why not miss this party as well. They have a lot of work back in Egypt so why did they come only for today and leave tomorrow? I still can’t figure out the reason. Grandpa has mentioned earlier that there was a surprise waiting for me in this party and I must say I’m a little bit nervous. I went to Noah who was standing with my cousin Omar. When they saw I was coming near them they both smiled a very awkward smile. “Hey” I said. “Hey, You look stunning. I must say your grandpa has a very good taste in dresses” Noah said. My dress was very simple yet so elegant just the way I like it. It was a blue mermaid styl
Jan’s POV I was worried about her. She’s not okay. I know that she wasn’t going to accept it and carry on but I didn’t think she would be that upset. Is being engaged to me something that bad that she’s having a hard time to accept? “Look man, she’s just processing. Give her sometime and she’s going to be okay” someone said behind me and when I turned and looked at him he was Noah. “Yeah” I said nonchalantly. Actually, he’s the last one I wanted to see right now “I know you’re not really fond of me but I promise there’s nothing going on between me and Sarah. We’re only two best friends who shared the same pain at the same time” he said sadly. “What does that mean?” I asked not knowing what pain he’s talking about. “Three years ago, we met at college. It was the first day for both of us at college. We were both coming with the same pain. The pain of having to give up on someone you really love just for their own good” he said. I was about to say something when he continued. “Just as
Sarah’s POVAfter all the guests have all the guests have left; there wasn’t anyone left except my family, Jan, Noah and me. I still haven’t spoken to anyone of them except Jan. Even Noah, I’m very disappointed in him. When grandpa opened his mouth to say something I said immediately “I’ll go with Jan” they were all surprised even Jan. After that being said, I headed out without saying a word to anyone. A while later, Jan joined me and we went to his car. “I must say I’m surprised” he said smirking. “Don’t be that surprised. I’m still mad at you but I’m mad at them more. At least you had the audacity to come and apologize” I said while getting into the car. “Well, to be fair you didn’t give them a chance to explain even Noah. The guy has been trying to talk to you all night and you’ve been giving him the silent treatment” Was he defending Noah? I must’ve hit my head. When he noticed the surprise on my face he said “He’s not a bad guy. I thought at first that he was after you but he ca
Sarah’s POVI woke up the next day at 7 am excited to spend the day with Jan. I don’t if giving him another chance or giving our relationship another chance is a good idea or not but I feel like I’m the happiest girl on earth. I looked at the ring on my finger and the first thought that came into my mind was that that was the ring we looked at 3 years ago me and Jan.*3 years Ago*We were strolling in the street me and Jan. This was his first day at work so in order to celebrate he took me on a date. It wasn’t a fancy date in a restaurant but we went to the shore of the river and ate the most delicious kebab sandwiches in the whole world. I didn’t eat it before so Jan decided that I should try it. After that we went and got an ice cream and walked on the shore for a while. Then, Jan took me to the amusement park and we had lots of fun and now we’re strolling in some street out of the park when we found a jewelry shop. It wasn’t the shop that caught my eyes but one of the diamond rings
Jan’s POVI was waiting for Sarah downstairs when I saw Sarah’s elder sister Zahra approaching me. I smiled to her and said “Good Morning, Zahra” I was never close to her sisters as they were always in Egypt and Sarah was the only one here and she was the one that went to them on vacations. “Good Morning, Jan” she smiled back. Then, a young boy came running after her and stopped when he saw us standing. “Selim, I told you not to run here inside. You might’ve broken anything here” Zahra said to who seemed to be her son. Sarah’s sisters were all married and have children. Sarah has told me all about them before. “Is that your son?” I asked Zahra. She smiled and said “Yes, and he’s Sarah’s sweetheart. He would ask anything from her and she complies without argument” she said sighing. “You’re Sarah’s fiancé right?” the little boy asked. I bent down to be at his eye level and said “Yes buddy” “I’m not your buddy and we’re not friends” he said angrily. “Selim, talk nicely with elders” Zahra
