***CHRIS'S P.O.V ***
I just know that this is how it is and this is what it is now. Somehow, I managed to convince Alena and now I have decided that I am not going to do anything that is going to do, anything to cause her any harm or that is going to make her feel anything, and clear and clear, I will not let that happen and that is clear now.
I was not thinking about my new song when my cabin's door opened and Myra came in. "Hello Chris. How are you? I know that you have been missing, so I just came just you. How have you been? I just heard that alena joined the office. It has not been easy for you." as she adored me, so I looked at her and asked why Myra was there.
"Hello Myra and Alena. I am also good. We are both on mutual terms right now, so just relax. We are both not troubling each other, by the way. How come you are? I didn't expect you here." I asked her, then she looked at me and then said,
"I came here because he and Blair are planning to move out. We are both planning to have some fun and just chill for a while, so I am here to take you with us." I leaned back in my chair and I looked at her that I was not going. I just have to make some excuse for her and then things will be clear.
"I am sorry, Myra, but I just want to finish making this song. I hope that you understand. I just don't want to cause any trouble, but you can go with Blair and you can chill, but I just could not come and I couldn't be there. am I so sorry sorry", I told her as I was doing my stuff and she was making faces and was trying to convince me. Blair came in and then looked at me.
"So, Alena, did you succeed in making him feel that he has to go with us, because as much as I know Chris, he would not have agreed to it," Blair said. I know why he is saying it. He is just saying it because he wants to make me come become an antithesis of his old trick.
"Oh wait, look listen to me, just calm down OK and just chill, I will join you all. Don't worry about it. I will do it OK. I am coming with you both. You don't have to act like a lost puppy." I said that, to which he smiled and Myra came and then hugged me.
"That is just great. By the way, we should have Alena with us too. It would be so great to have her with us. I mean it has been a while since she has not been out with us, so we just want this." I told her and then I made my way there.
"Yeah great idea, it will be fun like the old times if we were all here." I just said that and then I did it.
"I am also OK with it, OK with his ex-wife's company, then I am also happy with that. I am more than happy, so just relax." I smiled at her and then I said I am OK with her. I would love it if Alena would join us all in this. I would just love that.
"So let us all go now, come make go." I made our way out of my cabin when I saw Alena should i Saks lehr no. Blair will do. He would ask her and then things would just hit a shift. It just wants that answer and that is clear.
"Hello Alena, how are you?" Myra said and then she looked at me and Alena.
"Hello Myra, I am absolutely fine. How are you?"
"How am I looking? I am also perfectly fine. I am just more than good. OK, so just chill, so we are hanging out, so why don't you join us? It would be superb if you would join us and it would be fabulous," she said. Then he looked at Alena and just said Yes, Alena, please just say yes.
"No, actually I have some work to do. You guys go and have fun. I will come next time."
" OK Alena, OK, if you are busy, then I am not going to make that happen or I will not force you. OK, now you can go and do your work." as she was about to leave, I said.
"No, Alena, you have to join us. You can do your work tomorrow or later on. Just come with us for a day. Please can you just please do this. It would be great if you would do this." I asked her and then I asked her.
I know that you don't want to come. Even if there will be no work, you will not come with us, Alena. "No. I am good, I am absolutely fine. I have work, Chris, so I just want to do that.", as she said, I looked at her. I just don't know how it would be.
" Common Alena, come with us just for a while. Please, Alena, just come and don't do this please." Blair said and she smiled and then said,
" OK cool, I will also come. I will join you all but you all have to wait half an hour. I have some work so I will first finish it, then I will join you guys." "Cool. We will wait for you for a while, then just relax and just don't worry about it. I just hope that you will understand that Myra is coming and sitting with us in Chris' cabin. We will chill there." We all entered my cabin. I sat in my chair and then I saw that Myra had made her way and then she sat in front of me.
"So, Chris, it would not have been easy for you to be with Alena. I mean to be in your presence. In the same office, if you know that you will tolerate it. I am all you, married to her.".. That she said. I looked at her and then leaned a bit on the table and then I said
"The point is that Myra, that I am extremely OK with her presence and she is also ok with it OK. I know that it might sound weird, but even if it sounds weird to you it is not weird at all, trust me. We are not weird. We both know how to behave and we are just at peace and I just don't understand one thing why you are acting like this with Alena Hag, which happened as far as I remember. You were both friends with each other then. What has happened now weeds." She rolled her wees and then said,
"Chris, when you and Alena got divorced, me and Blair chose you and that was just the day when it all ended for me and Alena's friendship and, honestly, I still also am not okay with her around me." I nodded at her.
"But I never said upolu, so that you both have to choose between me and Alena. I was just being with myself. I was just busy with work. I am sorry I was busy coping with it and all these things. I am sorry, I am extremely sorry." I just said, I feel bad, I feel it. I just don't know anything about it. The only thing that I know is that it is not going to be good.
opened and then, Alena came in. I smiled at her and then I stood up from my chair. "Hello Alena, so is your work over. Just can we all just go now." She nodded, nodded at it, nodded, she said to him and looked at me. I just know that. That is it. She is looking for me among all these people.
"Yeah, my work is done. I am sorry I made you all wait. Honestly, that was not my intention at all. I am extremely sorry for that," she said. I smiled at them.
"It is fine Alena." I just said that, but then Myra said
"No, it is not okay, Alena, you are a CEO. You will know about the importance of time and then you will be aware that this is not done and not acceptable, but still. But he thinks that it is that I could not do anything about this, but we waited for half an hour for you, which is not okay." "No, it is okay Myra, you are not a business woman. You don't know how much we have to work, so just let it be. I think that we should all just go, otherwise we will be lawyers." I stood up from my chair to leave, when Myra said
"We are already late." she said, and then we all ignored it and then made our way to my jeep. Akena was about to step into her car when Blair said
" Come, Alena, don't do that. Just don't do that. You have to sit with us. This is it. If you do not sit with us, then it will not be good." He is just happy. I am very happy. I just know that he is the best that he can do anything, and that is clear. Alena just came and sat there. She smiled and then he sat next to me.
"Are you comfortable?" I asked her. She smiled at me and then said
"Yes, I am completely fine. I am absolutely fine and it will be good if you drive carefully." I smirked at her. We were just looking into each others eyes when Myra came and said
"The hell what is Alena doing here? I was supposed to sit here," she said. Then Alena looked at her. No, Alena was not going to go back before anything could happen. I jusy said.
" Common Myra, just sit behind. Don't create a scene. It is not going to be good." she then made a weird face and then went back and then he just sat down there.
"So let's go guys then." she looked weirdly like I cared
I drive for at least 2 hrs of driving and then we all get there. This is the place where we usually come here. If I still remember how it had been great how Alena and I used to spend time with each other, used to be with each other.
"Do you remember anything, Chris? This is the place where we all used to go when we were in college. It was such a great time, and now we are grown up. Actually, we are just grown up in names, we are not grown up." Blair said," I miss everything. I looked at Alena and suspiciously she was also looking. ay me. This place is very important for both of us. It is important. I just loved this place.
We all went and then sat on the side of the lake. I looked at Alena. We were all looking when Myra said, "Now is time for something special, now you have to have this OK and one more thing, OK, lie and no back up.," She said. I then nodded at her. Alena looked at it and, tensely, said
"Guys, I have you leave. It's actually getting late. What will I tell you at home? So I should leave now." she said," No Aleena, please don't go." Then Myra stood up and said,
" Coming are Alena, you are coming a long way here now. Just stay here and just enjoy this thing that is happening OK, so game time your bottle." as Myra gave the bottle of beer to Alena, she just gave her back.
"Sorry Myra, I just should not have this. I am extremely sorry, but as we will all be drinking, I think that I should just avoid this." she said that she did it. I just know that this is what is not correct.
"Alena, look at me. Listen to me. It is just common." Myra said, then I spoke in between.
"It is fine. I also don't want to drink. After all, I will be driving you both. You drink and have fun." she looked at me, then Myra came and sat next to me.
"I am fine. I am absolutely fine. Looking at me, so now Blair, your turn, so you choose to tell me that you loved Alena right and you just wanted her right, are you? Okay with it? I want to ask you one thing. You still love Alena," she said. Then I looked at it. What the hell is it? I just don't know what it is and what is wrong with her. Why have to ask such questions of her?
"I am sorry Chris, I am extremely sorry. Listening to me, yes I liked her when we were in college. I am extremely sorry to say this. I am glad that Alena is now back. I am still here and now I like her as a friend because the day she was with Chris and the day they came together I stopped thinking even a bit about it. I thought about her." I took a deep breath and then decided that this is what I would do.. That just know that this is how it is. I am glad that now he doesn't love her and Myra just wanted gossip and that is it.
I looked at Alena. "So, Alena, did you ever have any feelings for Blair? I mean coming, he is so good. By the way, what about it is that you both think about each other now, as Alena and Chris are over now, so what then?" I stood up in anger, then I looked at Alena.
"Myra, you should know when to talk and when not to. I just don't get what is wrong with you. We are here for fun and it seems like we are here just for this stupid thing, Myra.", as I was about to say something else, Blair stood up and then held me to calm me down. I looked at Alena, who also wanted this. Then I decided that I should just sit and then just lay. this. tupi thing
"Sorry Chris, I just said it as a joke. I am sorry if I hurt you. I am sorry Alena. This was not my intention." He looked at her. He and I know that he was very angry with him, but now we should just leave here or else things will just get screwed. I don't want that. It will not be good.
" Usually we love each other, now the only feeling between us is hate." as I said, I took a sip of my drink. Myra spun it again and again.
It came on me, "What could I have to do now?" I asked Myra before she could say anything, Blair said.
"Sing the same song you sang for Alena when you fell for her, the song made for her." we both looked at each other. We won't sing that song.
"No I won't, I will sing that song." I said immediately, as it hurt me. Everything related to us hurts me.
We were together, but then we were not
" Common Chris, it's just a song," Myra said, and Blair. They also both made me sing it.
I took my guitar and sang it for Alena, I mean what I sang for her.
After playing for a while and then making time pass, I just know that, so it is all that I want and that is all that I know.
"So now we will all go," I said. When we all stood up, I knew that it was not going to be as easy as it is now and, unfortunately, I just couldn't do anything.
We all made our way to my jeep and then we all sat in it. I started driving it quietly when my jeep automatically stopped and then I got down to check what happened and I wondered if its tire was gone. I am so frustrated now ", Chris. Called down. Then I will figure out something. I will call my driver. He will come, then we can all go." before she could do that. Before, I held her hand and then said no to her.
"No, alena, you are here. Your aunt is going to make a drama of it already, so just don't do that. I will figure out something I will call one. one and I will do the thing. You must be tired. You should go and sit in the jeep with them." she didn't go. She looked at me and then said,
"I am not going anywhere Chris, sorry I am not going to leave. You are sorry I will only be here with you." wanted to hug him tightly. I know how much she wants me. I still have no chance that there will be anything else that is gonna happen. I hope that we will stay like this with each other.
" OK Alena." we both then started to. OK, it comes out when a car crosses. We stood up for the lift and they stopped it. We saw old couples which just reminded me of my mom and dad.
"Yes, what is it? Why are you two like this? Is everything alright?" they asked us, then I looked at Alsna and then I told them.
"Actually, this is our vehicle and you can see that it got punctured, so it would be great if you gave all four of us a lift." They looked at us and then laughed and asked
"Four, but you are just the two of you."
"No, we have two more friends, actually they are drunk so, could you just please." Lorna and we both asked them and they said yes, they are a very sweet couple.
I went there and got Myra and Blair, then Alena and I sat next to each other. I was just looking at her. I saw a couple who were fighting a slightly younger man. I said "they are just like them and dad, sweet and nice. It has been years since I met them."
At that Alena looked at me. It was like she wanted me to say something to me that was OK. This is a topic on which I guarantee you that we will never fight. I smiled at her and then she said "Yes, you should go there and meet them. I must be missing you, allot Chris." I nodded at
"Yes, it's been years since I met them. I am missing them a lot now." I told her about that. She didn't say anything. I know that Alena still doesn't trust Mr me, that she still thinks that he is not worth it. Why I will blame her
"Alena, I actually want to ask you something. I know that you don't want this, but Alena, the point is they are old and they are already delivering us, so we just could not ask them to drop you and then me, so I was thinking that it would be wonderful if I would stay the night. Would my place just be great?" I asked her. She looked at me and then she just smiled and then nodded.
"You are right, I should stay at your place. This couple is very old. It would be bad if I made them suffer and I could just let anyone know in the house that I was with you, so this is it. Then I will do it." she said yes to it. I just took a deep breath and I then looked at her.
They drove for a while, then we reached my home. Akena helped me with settling Myra and Blair. She didn't feel like sleeping with them, so she just looked around and then she smiled at them. "Want some coffee." I asked her to nod at them, then we both went to the kitchen. She started making coffee and if it. Then she made it. Then je gave.
"Thank you." I took a sip and then I smiled at it. I am just happy. I am very happy that I was again getting the taste of her hand. I just missed it so much for this long. I had not got the chance to even have contact with her.
"What happened Chris?" she asked me, then I looked at her and then I said
"It is just great, Alena. I am actually shocked by this. I don't know about it, but the thing is that I am glad that I got the opportunity to get this coffee in your hand again. I am actually very happy." she smiled at it and then looked at me and said.
"If you wanted it, then I would have given you that in the office and Chris. We have come to the conclusion that now we can be mutually, in this," she said. I looked at her and then I said,
"True, you are right, but this is not the point. The point is that I just don't know what our equation will be, but from all this, and everything that has happened, is that now we have just come to peace, so I just want Alena. It is all that I want." I took a deep breath and then I got everything. She took my hand and then I looked into her house.
"Chris, I understand what you are saying, but I just want to say don't think about it like this, Chris, because you are not wrong Chris, you are just OK and you how. It is now. It will be like that only and that is all that I want and that is all that you want, so we both should just stick to that, Chris, what I don't think about, is what will happen and what will happen OK." OK, said I, smiled at him.
"Alena, I just also want to be with you on this. I also want to. I hope that you will also understand that and you will also do as we just have to do." I told her, as we were both talking, and then I struck myself on my head and then I said,
"Alena, did you ever have any feelings for Blair or anything like that, anything because this was. I know that he has always liked you and I knew it. But was it ever from your side? I know that I am no one to ask this question, but I am still asking and that is because I just need to be sorry Alena, you don't have to answer, you don't own me anything. I just know that I just thought that or I just say fire that you never knew about it." I told her as I got hyper, then she held my hand and then made me look at her.
"No, Chris, I never liked home, it was never him and it would have been. It would have just been you and it was you, so just don't. I don't think how I feel and how it will be. Just know that this is not what it is. She said she just said it for this thing. She just did it for fun and you know that." she just said that she loved me and not just that she still loved me and that is just the great part. I am happy. I am extremely happy. She still loves me.
"Thank you Alena," I said, and then I went close to her. She also didn't go back. Then I hugged her and then she pulled back and then she looked into my eyes. I just could not resist. I smashed my lips into her lips. I am just lousy to her lips. She is just the best thing that has happened.
Its feelings are so juicy. I missed these lips so much I just missed them a lot and tasted them and devoured them.
I looked at her and then she looked at me. We were both breathless as we were both kissing each other. I was looking at her. She just made me feel so wonderful, so loveful that I just could not say anything else. I just know that.
"Chris, I think that now I should sleep. It is very late." she said, and then made her way to the guest room to sleep. I was just looking at her as she was going
Then it hit me. What I done. How can I think the reason why she left is just this. I just went to my room and then tried to fall asleep with glass. I got up and then made my way to the kitchen from where the sound was coming
On my way, I saw Alena. She looked at me. "Was that you?" I asked her, then she shrugged her shoulders and said,
"No, I am also checking out who it is." we both then. We made our way there and then we saw Myra. Where the hell is it?
I looked at Alena and then she went there and she held Myra's hand and then asked her "What are you doing here, Myra, is everything alright? Are you okay?" I looked at her and then I was waiting for her to say something.
"I was having a way but I felt sorry for Alena, sorry I am sorry." Thank God God.
" OK, I will give you water." Alena gave her water and then Myra had it and then Alena took her and then left her in the room. I looked at Alena. She looked exhausted.
"Thanks, I am sorry that Myra and Blair are drunk, so you have to be, so it's all. I am extremely sorry for that. That you can sleep well. We are looking for that again." We both spend days on the couch. She looked at me and she smiled.
"It is completely fine Chris, even if Myra doubt consider me as her friend, I am still her friend and I am going to be that okay and more more thing Chris doesn't stress on unnecessary stuff." she said it then she hit up and ghent looked outside its already sunrise
" What happened? Did you want something "? I asked her, to which she smiled at me and said
"No, I don't want anything. I was just looking at the light, so I think that now I should go. I will get. Then you so much for letting me stay there." she said. Then, then she hugged me and then left. She is acting as if nothing happened and, honestly, I don't blank. blank whist for. I will blame myself for what he has not even done. It is just ridiculous. I will not do that.
I went to my room and slept with him, then I got down and saw Myra and Blair fighting with each other. I joined them. "Hello Chris, sorry we were so drunk. By the way, where is Alena? I didn't see her." Myra asked about her. I looked as if she was searching for her.
"She left as the sun rose." Myra blinked her eyes and then smiled. I know that she wanted to say something but she was just gonna make fun of it.
"Alena for sure gets scared of her family so much that she just leaves as she has no leaves in common. Now she earns her own money, which is the problem now," she said. Then I looked at her with anger.
" It's called respect not fear, Myra. You will not understand this because you have never done this.", I told her as I poured a cup of coffee. I know that she sometimes crosses all her lines and I just don't like it, just even a bit. I just hate it from the end.
" OK Chris Myra, you have to know how to control your nouth." Then Myra came to me and then said
"Yes, that's why she was unable to handle just a little bit of a family problem. This is just not something that she should have done. Nan, Maybe your marriage has not broken 3." She said. It hurts. It said just.. whatever she said. How can she be so mean? I can not tolerate this. It was our fault, both our Alena and mine. This is not good. She cannot say that Myra just crossed her limit. This is not correct.
"Chris, I am sorry about her side. I am sorry you know that she is so stupid. She says anything that comes to her mind." I looked at him in anger and then said
"No one has the right to say anything and Alena's marriage was. I was not clear about it, but no one understands it and that is why she thinks that she can do whatever she wants to say."
"No Blair, what wrong did I say? Was it any wrong? What I said tells me, Chris."
