Coming back from her apartment Adrian entered his house still whistling. He noticed his father's car parked in the garage. His brother was back from the office too as his Audi was parked in the front yard."So they are already back! It's a good thing that I came out of her apartment just in time. Otherwise, I had to face her aunt and family." shrugging his shoulder he opened the front door and entered inside.His whole family was sitting in the living room, talking with each other. Everyone stopped seeing him."Addy you! " his mother looked at him surprised." Yeah, mom! I was missing you. So came directly from the office to see you. When did you guys come?""Oh just now. And you did absolutely right my dear. I was missing you too."Everyone exhaled seeing her affection towards her younger son. She was a tough lady indeed, but when it came to him she seemed to be lenient about a lot of things. Hugging him tightly she pecked his forehead affectionately. " Here we go again! Didn't yo

A comfortable silence soon fell upon the car. Both of them were lost in their own minds. While Adrian let his daydream be continued, Jane in her mind was reviewing his words. Still couldn't really get her hands on what he exactly meant by those words, but seeing that stupid smirk on his face she comprehended there had to be some hidden meaning behind that. When he started explaining his action, she was sure of it.Even though he sounded sincere with his speech, it was very much possible he was just aiming to acquire her sympathy. But she was truthful with her statements. She surely didn't feel very comfortable with his stare and his touch but that was not enough reason to decide whether he was a good person or not. She let him know about her discomfort, and hopefully, he would keep that in mind.Seeing the known building in the near distance she shut down the voice in her mind." Stop here." Hearing her, Adrian stopped the car. " Why? What happened? I mean we are allowed to park th

" Jane, come come! " Kathy welcomed her, giving her a warm smile. Jane smiled in return and took a seat beside Brirney." What's going on? Anything serious? I mean all of you are sitting together." She asked curiously." No "." Yes".Britney and her aunt both ended up saying it at the same time. Jane looked suspiciously at both of them.Soon Mary, her aunt, realized they couldn't let her know about this. It was supposed to be a surprise. Smiling awkwardly at Jane she mumbled _" We were just talking about you. I mean it's already 9.30 but you still didn't come so I was just concerned. I was about to call you ". She looked at Jane expecting her to buy her excuses. She felt bad for her. The girl hardly went out. She told her that after coaching she would go to dinner with her friends. She was happy that Jane was finally opening up to people again and making friends. But in the rush that was the only lie she could come up with. Shefali made it in mind that next week after her birthd

" Sissy ". Turning back, both of them saw Liam and Aria standing there, watching them with amused eyes.Jane quickly pushed him aside and got out of his embrace as soon as his hold on her wrist got loose." Liam, Aria, what are you doing here?" She asked nervously. She was so thankful that both of them came to get her out of the devil's clutch but embarrassed that they saw her with him." Mummy sent us to get you," Aria replied to her. Her eyes drifting between Adrian and Jane." Ok, Aria. Can you please tell your mom to come here?" Jane asked pleadingly. She won't be able to go in front of everyone like this." Ok, I am telling her." Both of them left the place giggling.Without giving him another look Jane came out of the washroom.Turning the shower off Adrian waited for one whole minute before coming out.He didn't really plan for any of these to happen but it somehow ended up better than he expected. Only if the kids won't have interrupted him! He could have lost his chance to

Sunlight peeking through the curtain fell upon Adrian's face, disturbing his peaceful sleep.He stirred a little, blinking a couple of times as he tried to adjust his vision. Stretching both of his hands upwards he turned to his other side just to find an unfamiliar figure beside him, wrapped around the duvet.In a moment realization hit him like a truck. Jolting up he sat back straight. But suddenly felt someone was hammering inside his head. Clutching his hair with fingers he let out a loud groan to tolerate the unbearable pain. God hangover! What did he do last night? He dashed out of his home and went straight to the bar. Then he drank like it was the end of the world. The girl came to him, talked, and he left with her. Then?"Jane, wasn't she here? Was I just hallucinating? Shit! How drunk was I?" I didn't end up doing something he would regret, right? But why did it feel like she actually was here?" He couldn't even remember anything properly.Only the girl beside her can answe
