“I told you she would try to avoid us,” Vian spoke to Jay keeping his delightful eyes on me.   I couldn’t imagine a better moment for mother earth to swallow me whole. I really didn’t want to be there at that moment.   “Lydia, you are fired as of now. If you just let any passerby come in then what’s the use of you.” Damon spat directed his words to Lydia as soon as he saw both of them.   That made the entire situation awkward, and the tension in the room was almost palpable. But thank god, Jay spoke first trying to ease the tension. “Hello, Damon. I don’t suppose you remember me, but I am Jay.” He offered his hand moving a little forward.   “No one is talking to you, mate. Go f*ck yourself.” He snapped.   “Watch it, pal,” Vian said with a warning glare towards Damon moving in between Jay and Him.   “Damon!” I called out almost instantly as Vian. I understood

Lunch with Ryan was surprisingly felt good. I just accepted his offer feeling bad for rejecting his invite for coffee before and I didn’t expect myself to be having a good time with him. He acted the same as he had, when we used to date before in high school. He was funny, charming, gentle, and was a good listener. Being with Ryan made me feel calm like when I watch sunset sitting on the banks of the river near my apartment. It also terrified me that how after all these years what I feel when I am with him never changed. When we were dating in the past, he used to be my safe haven from reality. I was running away from a lot of things and somehow I ended up in the hands of Ryan. He was the end of my road when I started running and I can’t help but frit, thinking about the perfect timing of Ryan’s reappearance in my life when I am in fact running from someone and that someone being Vian like in the past. Since Ryan was leaving New York the next day

When you think that you’ve had enough… that life can’t get any more worse then it just throws a big rock at you… one that might crush even the little hope that you have been holding onto. That’s life. It will never leave you alone until you learn the lesson… until you learn to endure, accept, let go and move on. In case if you ever try to just run away without dealing with your problems. It will catch up to you eventually. I read this somewhere, and that is one of the things that resonated with me at that time ‘If you never heal from what hurt you, you'll bleed on people who didn't cut you.’ The next morning I drove to my office thinking whether I should go send Vian and Jay off to LA or should I just pretend that I didn’t care. Thinking that I will not be able to see them for a month didn’t sit well with me. God, what happened to me? I was ok for seven years without meeting them but here I am whining to myself not being able to see them for just a month. On

It was a fine day in New York. The sun shone brightly and the sky was clear as my mind was. I felt like nature represented my mood that day. I drove my car to my office listening to Ed Sheeran’s bad habits on the radio. I couldn’t stop myself from mouthing the lyrics and humming to the melody as I listened to the song. I was even bouncing on my car seat when I stopped in traffic waiting for the light to turn green. I was thinking about Vian all the way… about our conversation the previous day. Somehow with just a few words, he managed to melt down all my worries and doubts. If you have someone in your life who influences you but does not manipulate you, support you but not try to carry you, scold you for your mistakes but doesn’t judge you, fight with you all the time but never hates you, gives you hope rather being disappointed at your wrongs, Loves you with all of their heart and gives you every ounce of it even when you don’t deserve it, then you are the l

“Hi, my name is Elena and you are Ava, right?” The girl standing outside my door introduced herself and the fact that she already knew me surprised me. She held out her hand for a shake, and I could see that she was visibly uneasy about something. She looked beautiful with her auburn hair and brown eyes. She was almost my height and wore a dress with a floral pattern. Her legs on the floor were constantly moving, showing that she was indeed anxious “Uh… yeah but sorry do I know you?” I asked her politely, looking confused. I was sure that I had never met her before. “No, you don’t. I am sorry. I am a friend of Jay.” She said. “Oh, wow. Please come on in.” I invited her in and offered her something to drink from the mini-fridge that was in the hotel room. For a while, the room fell into silence. I wasn’t sure what to say to a stranger because I didn’t know why she came to my room but I gave her some time to make up her mind
