Barry's POV :
We reached the airport. I parked my car in the parking lot and we went inside. We took our tickets and went to check-in. But, Jane is immersed in her thoughts. I want to know what she is thinking. Why is she so distracted? I kept staring at her but I can't make out what she is thinking.
We went to check in when she was about to bump into someone when I grabbed her hand to stop her.
"Be careful!!"I said.
She just looked at me and nodded.
I didn't let go of her hand till we were inside the plane and she didn't try to shake my hand away, it surprised me. She took the window seat and I sat on the seat beside her.
She was so immersed in her thoughts that she forgot to fasten her seat belt so I locked it for her. She got surprised at first and then looked at me. There was something different about her look. What is going on in her mind?

Barry is too much! He only had one meeting and he brought me here for a week! And when I complained, he made an innocent face and told me that he wanted to see the place around here. So, I have to accompany him everywhere he goes, and this has been going on for the past four days. I don't think he is interested in seeing the places as he only stares at me. His stares now affect me. It makes me conscious of myself. I don't understand this feeling. This sudden effect of his stares on me.Today, he wants to go to the mall. And so I got ready, I wore jeans and a top but he didn't let me wear it and gave me a dress, yeah a gift from him. And he wanted me to wear it today.When I asked him, why he is giving me a gift and wanted me to wear it, he just said that he liked this dress and so he bought it for me and wants to see me in this.Why? Why did he buy a dress for me? Why does he want to see how I look in this? Why is he bei
Flashback :It was Sunday and as usual, it was my day off and the day when I go in search of Mark.It's been six months since I left home when Mark disappeared suddenly. I went to his best friend to know about him and he told me that Mark has come to New York so, here I am, searching for him every Sunday, visiting restaurants and cafes and diners.But, I still haven't found him.I entered into a restaurant, the last place where I have come to find him. I don't know if I didn't find Mark here what will I do. If he is not a waiter here then where will I go to find him, where?I went straight to meet the manager, "Hello! I just want to know if any waiter by the name of Mark works here who have joined six months ago. Please, it's important!""Mark? I don't think so. Julie, is there any waiter by the name, Mark? "He asked a waitress passing by."No, sir." she shook he
Barry's POV :Jane is confused; she doesn't know which one of the two dresses to buy. She is really cute when she is confused. She wants to ask me and keeps looking at me from the corner of her eyes but I know she won't ask me directly. She is stubborn just like me. Looking at her happy face really makes me happy.I think I should help her. She is never gonna ask me for my opinion and she really needs my help too."That red one will look good on you." I said smiling."I didn't ask you! I will buy the blue one!" she replied giving me a look and went to the counter.She is really cute."Sir, do you want any help?" asked one of the female staff."No, thanks." I said smiling.Everywhere I go girls just wanna talk to me, they try really hard to gain my attention, to flirt with me. I don't like it. But I like it when this happens when I am around J
"Barry isn't here yet?" asked Emma.I shook my head."You miss him!" taunted Lily."No, I don't!!"I said and tried to hide my concern.Barry didn't come to the restaurant today. I haven't seen him for the whole day. He wasn't at home in the morning when I took his black coffee. He didn't follow me to the restaurant. I am so tensed about him.When I told him about Mark, he was angry. Really angry. He dropped me home last night and after that, I haven't heard from him. I tried to call him but he is not taking any calls, as I tried to call from the phone booth, Emma's cell, and also Lily's cell.Where is he? I want to meet him. I just want to know that he is ok.I have been waiting for him for the whole day. This is really killing me, not knowing whether he is fine or not.I kept looking at the door, waiting for him to come in.Just then a guy came in. He was wearing a
I was pacing in my room thinking about what Barry told me about. His darkest secret!Flashback :"What is it Barry?" I asked him nervously.He took a deep breath. This is making me really tensed. What is it that he is so tensed about? I told him that I love him and he is tensed about something else! What is more important than my confession?He looked at me. I was staring at him."Barry! Say something! Will you?"I said worrying even more."Jane, I am not a human...." he said when I started laughing.Is this a joke? He is joking right now? This is such an important part of our life and he is in the mood to joke?He was looking at me surprised."Jane! I am serious! I am not a human! Really.." he said seriously."Ok...ok..."I said trying to stop my laughing and continued, "Then what are you?"&nbs
"Really!!!" Emma said happily and hugged me."I knew it! I knew this would happen!"Lily said smiling and hugged me too."He used to stare at you the whole day! I told you he bought this restaurant just to be near you. We were right from the start!"Emma said smiling."But someone always denied this, but now his love has taken her heart."Lily taunted me and winked.I tried to hide my blushing face.They both laughed seeing me blush.I looked at Barry; he looked away trying to hide his smile. I know he can hear everything perfectly but he doesn't want to show this so, that I don't feel uncomfortable talking to my friends. He is so sweet and caring. This makes me fall for him even more."We want to know the details! Who confessed first?"Emma said looking at me curiously."Yes!"Lily said with curiosity.I looked at them then at Barry then again at them. What should I tell them? I can't li
We both were sitting opposite each other. I am so nervous. What should I talk to him about? I was looking at my hands; I can't look him in the eyes after what I did."How have you been?" he asked me breaking the silence.I looked at him. He hasn’t changed a bit. He looked the same with black hair and green eyes. We both have the same eye color, green."I am fine."I said when I found my voice back and asked him, "How are you, dad? How are mom and James?"Yes...he is my dad and it’s been more than six months since I last met him or argued before leaving home.Flashback :"Dad, I love him! I love Mark and I can't live without him!"I said trying to convince him to accept Mark."He is not worth your love, dear. He doesn't love you; he just loves your money. Please, try to understand." he said trying to convince me to forget him.
"What??? You are leaving???"Emma and Lily shouted together.I nodded."You won't forget us, right? You will come to meet us, right?"Emma asked with tears in her eyes."Yes, Emma. How can I forget the two of you."I said with tears in my eyes."You will invite us to your wedding, right?"Lily asked with tears."Lily, you both will be the first ones to receive my wedding invitation. Anything else that you both want me to remember and do?"I said smiling trying not to cry."Just be happy!"Emma said and hugged me crying.I hugged her too.Lily hugged us both.I am on my flight. Only Barry came to see me off. Emma and Lily avoided it, they were happy that I will meet my family but sad that I was leaving. Barry didn't say anything; he didn't even try to stop me."The flight is about to land in Chicago. Please fasten your seatbelts." the flight attendant said."You are
