Destined to love

Skylight clubhouse, the most popular hangout place in the city... the "go to" place for the extremely rich elite and also the middle class. This is also the uniqueness of skylight. The middle open space tables could be booked for a table at 2000 dollars, whereas the private rooms could cost anywhere between 10000- 1 million, depending on how long they were reserved for.Dana, wearing a wine-red top and jeans-colored capri, walked in looking left and right, fidgeting with the handle of her handbag. She hated places like this, the smell of alcohol in the air made her uncomfortable. Normally she would decline catch up invitations from her colleagues to places like this, but Therese was one of her close friends and this was her farewell party. This was the reason she braved her inner demons to be here to celebrate one last time. Spotting Maylin and Angus at the middle table, Dana squeezed past the enthusiastic patrons."OMG! Look who's here" Lara screamed as she rushed over with open arms

Back in the apartment, Dana and Lara settled on their favorite couches with a cup of coco.“Now can we talk about why you are acting weirdly?” Dana looked at Lara with an aura that did not leave room for negotiation.“Actually, I want to tell you but I don’t know how?” Lara hesitated. This was very rare for Lara, who was straightforward and straightforward. She would never hesitate to speak her mind.“What is it about the topic that makes you hesitate?” Dana prompted gently.“I don’t want to hurt you?”“Is it something you did?”“No… ” Lara lowered her head guiltily "maybe unintentionally."“Well, if it’s unintentional, why would I be hurt? Am I unreasonable?"“I mean my involvement is unintentional but not the matter as such, isn't.” Lara explained.Dana thought for a moment before asking “Do you think you would want to know if our roles were reversed?”“Yes”“Then you know the answer” Dana smiled.Lara looked at her peaceful expression and asked carefully “How would you feel if you

Lisa sat fidgeting her fingers for half an hour before deciding to take a look. She pressed her ear against the door. The sound proofing in the CEO’s room was good. She gently turned the knob and opened the door leaving a tiny space between the door and the wall, hardly enough for someone to notice that the door was open, but enough to hear the conversation. She saw Shadow standing with his back to her while the other three were sitting as she peeped in; she then leaned against the space with her ears, but could not hear a sound. Lisa could not believe that four grown men could still in a room for an hour without saying a word. ‘What was all this about? Even the major general was here!’ She was too engrossed in her thoughts that she didn't notice the movements in the room.Ed opened the door and Lisa fell in due to inertia, having positioned herself with her ear against the wall. Ed side stepped with a look of disgust and he threw a ‘told you so’ look at Ben before walking out.Fran

“Ding” Frank’s phone lighted up with a message.Sarah reached out to get the Frank’s phone murmuring “Who doesn’t know today is Saturday”Frank smiled as he got up and kissed her forehead lovingly “Sleep! I’ll get it”.He sat up, reached over, picked his phone and read the message.“Who is it?” Sarah’s sleepy voice came from under the pillow.“Three guesses” Frank smiled“There’s only one person who is sleepless right now, do I need three guesses? Sarah sat up with a twisted smile and half opened eyes.“Bingo!”“What’s it about?”“We are volunteering at the Appleton estate tonight”“Doesn’t he have to check if we are free?” Sarah raised her eyebrows and added with a nonchalant expression “Between the three of you, you probably don’t even know the word ‘politeness’ exists do you?”Frank hugged her from behind “Honey, you knew what you were getting into. Don’t you think you’re complaining 25 years too late?”Sarah “”‘Ding’ Dana’s phone received a message from Mrs Appleton“We have a fe

Ben waited outside for Dana to calm down. He knew that he had gone too far, but he couldn’t control himself. When he was around her, somehow his brain and body seemed to reject all proprieties and had one only imprint ‘she was his’. Noticing that she had no intention of coming out. He opened the door “Not coming? Do you want to continue?”“Eh!” Dana stared up with a tear stained faceBen felt his chest getting heavier as he noticed her tear stained face. He walked into the room and squatted next to her. She flinched back out of reflex. She didn’t want to be tangled with this man.“I am sorry. I was out of line. Don’t cry” His eyes were filled with sincerity as he looked at her. He raised his hands and gently wiped her tears.“You… you” She stammered for a while but couldn’t vocalize what she wanted to say. He helped her up and led her out of the room into the kitchen area. He turned around to face her and spoke seriously “I like you a lot, I don’t know why. Ever since we met 4 weeks a
