“Are you in some kind of a problem?” Sarah’s voice raised.
“Mmm…”I was so attached to my own thoughts. So, it took me a few seconds to grab what she asked.
I raised my head and looked at her. She was looking at me sadly. Don’t know how long she was looking at me like this…
“No… why?” I asked, trying to smile.
“You are different from last night. I thought you were tired, but now I feel there can be some other reason too…” she said, looking right into my eyes.
“Nothing like that, Sarah… I was exhausted, and on the other hand, I was really pissed off at what happened to Jake…” I said. God! it was so hard to lie to a person, looking right into their eyes.
“I get it… It was unfair… But are you sure, you are upset just because that?” she asked again.
“Of course… What else is there to worry…” I replied immediately.
“Okay… then… But if you have any problem, I am always here to listen… Maybe I won’t be able to help you but I will always try my best…” she said. I know she meant every single word of what she said. “I know that, Sarah…” I smiled.
Jake, you are the luckiest man in the world… You have such a wonderful girl in your life… She is perfect from all the aspects. I thought while looking at her…
Sarah’s POV
*****
We all had breakfast together.
Jake was feeling a bit okay than yesterday night… Luke was also back to his usual self after the discussion I had with him in the morning…
“Your food is delicious…” Luke said. This is like the fifth time he said this.
Jake and I laughed at him.
“You know, when you two are married, I will come to your house everyday… So, I can eat tasty food from Sarah…” Luke said again.
“How about getting a girl who can cook delicious food for you?” I asked while laughing at him.
They both exchanged a glance that I couldn’t decipher… Luke’s face also got changed pretty quickly. What does that mean?
“No need… I will arrange a room for you at our house…” Jake said immediately.
“Perfect…” Luke said, patting Jake’s shoulder.
These two indeed have a lot of secrets between them… God knows when they are going to let me know all these… I thought while looking at them…
After taking breakfast, Jake insisted that I should go home… I so much wanted to stay with him and take care of him. But he didn’t want me or Luke to stay with him.
He said he called Clark, and he is on his way to Jake’s place. So Clark will stay with him, and look after him. Luke was clearly pissed off with Jake’s decision, but neither of us could do anything against his words. He always has some kind of power to make us agree to his decisions. Luke went to take a wash and change before leaving. So, I was alone with Jake in the living room. I was sitting next to him, holding his hand.
“I have to ask you something…” I said.
“What?”
“What you wanted to ask from me after you score three goals?” I asked curiously.
“Oh! that… I didn’t score three goals, so I cannot ask you that now…” he replied casually.
“But it was not your fault… You were so close to scoring the third goal if that i***t didn’t block you illegally.” I said angrily.
“However, the final result is the same… I scored just two goals…” he said.
“I don’t care how many goals you scored, Jake. Even if you didn’t score a single goal, I am willing to give you anything you want… Please tell me what you want from me…”
“No, Princess… I must earn that… I will tell you when I deserve it…” he said, gently kissing my hand.
“I hate you, Jake… You are so stubborn…” I yelled at him, pulling my hand away from him.
“Hey!!!” he said, putting his hand over my shoulder and pulling me to him.
“Don’t get angry, princess…” he said softly.
“I am not getting angry, Jake… But you are always like this… Hiding everything from me…” I said, pouting.
“I am not hiding, princess… Even if I tell now, we can’t do it for a long time…” he said.
“I don’t care when we can do it, but I want to know what that is…”
“Okay… Okay… Have you heard about paradise island?” he then asked.
“Yes…”
“My family owns a bungalow there… It is a really nice place with a private beach… It is a bit far away from the crowded area. So, it is possible to spend some alone time…” he was saying… “So…” he has increased my curiosity…
“I wanted to ask you to spend a weekend with me there…” he said softly, while his eyes were focussing on mine…
“What? Spend a weekend there… But isn’t that far away…” I couldn’t hide my surprise… There should be nearly 1000kms…
“Not far away if we fly there… I was planning to use one of our private jets…” he said casually.
“What? You own private jets as well… Oh My God!!! How rich are you for real, Jake?” I even forgot to close my mouth.
“It is not a big deal, princess… Most of the people own private jets these days…” he said, smiling.
“Well… not the people I know…”
“Now forget about it… I just wanted to have a beautiful weekend alone with you… Just two of us…”
“I don’t know what to say, Jake…” I said, looking down.
“I know, it is not easy for a girl like you to fly a thousand miles away from home with a guy and spend a whole weekend with him… That’s why I wanted to earn it for you… To give a value to your decision…” he said. “But… Even from your side, using your family’s private jet and the bungalow, won’t it be a problem?” I asked.
“I can do it, without letting my parents know… So, that won’t be an issue…” he replied.
