Rachel: " So on the way I will get a message that meeting has been cancelled . Then I will ask him to stop by for a cup of coffee . You know how good I am with words .

I will be there . "

Clara: " Oh so you have already made a plan . "

Clara: " Ok fine if you say so . "

Rachel: " So are we good now . "

Clara: " Yes we are . "

Rachel: " So now will you help me ? "

Clara: " Help you in what ? "

Rachel: " Help me pick an outfit . What should I wear ? Should I tie my hair in a pony or should I let them loose . You have known Tyler for a while now . . . . . . . tell me about his likes and dislikes . What is his favorite color . I will wear that . "

Clara: " Tyler is a simple boy . There is not a lot to know about him . He is like an open book . And he is also very sweet . He tries to look for the good in everyone . And just so you know that no matter what he is still madly in love with Mindy . And it is obvious he was with her since he learned the meaning of love . He is heart broken and also he is my very good friend so don't make fun of his emotions . He is very sensitive . "

Rachel: " No , no , I get it . And I promise you that I will not make any first move . "

Clara: " That will be good . Do you have any boy friend right now . "

Rachel: " Yes . . . . . . no . . . . . . may be . Actually he is not my boy friend - boyfriend . We are keeping things casual . It is more like a fling . Nothing serious . His name is Andrew . "

Clara: " Oh . . . . . . ok . "

Rachel: " So tell me what is his favorite color ? What should I wear . That is the real question because he is waiting . "

Clara: " Blue is his favorite color . Wear something that is blue . "

Rachel: " Oh my God . You won't believe I just got a blue body hugging short - short dress . Blue brings out my eyes which tells that I am innocent and also my cleavage looks sexy in it which says that I am also available . So yes it is final . And I will let my hair loose . "

Clara: " It is good that you have decided . Now you get ready and so will I because I have a date with Steven . "

Rachel: " So , what is this date about ? "

Clara: " It is not about anything . We have not spend time together in a while . "

Rachel: " I know you know me but you should also know that I know you . So my instincts are telling me that there is another reason . . . . . . . . "

Clara: " Well yeah you said that you can't to give Tyler a taste that he will never forget . I will also give Steven a slight taste and I will leave him wanting for more . "

Rachel: " Just to make sure that he don't look any where else especially at . . . . . . "

Clara: " It is a good day don't say her name . "

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Rachel and Clara thought that there was nothing wrong in going after your best friends ex .

But were they right ?

NO .

Sometimes when you develop feelings they happen to be for your friend's ex . But , pursuing these feelings might not always be worth it . Tyler's good looks attracted Rach and she was blinded to see what mess it could lead to .

It can be quite difficult to deal with your friends not liking your partner— especially if the partner is someone they used to date .

But Rachel for her selfish reasons was ready to over look it .

Though Tyler and Mindy willingly agreed to part their ways it was not easy for them . It was very hard . They both were hiding their feelings for each other when they clearly wanted to be with each other .

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

It can be tough to move on from a relationship when those feelings still exist, and it could cause tension if you make a move before your friend has moved on .

They were in a long relationship . They had planned their future with each other .

They were strongly attached to each other .

Before deciding if this relationship is worth pursuing, it's important to think about what losing your friend would mean to you.

It doesn’t feel good to see your ex with someone new, whether you’re over him or not. It’s worse when it’s with one of your good friends .

Emily was walking in the garden . She wanted to feel fresh air . The cool gentle blowing air , The pleasant smell of the flowers , the soothing chirping of the birds made her feel relax .

The sky made her feel relax because it was so calm and still some times the dark clouds cover it but then they were blown away by wind and the peace was restored .

She spotted a familiar face coming towards her .

" Emily ! "

She called out in a suspicious voice like she was not expecting to see her here .

" Miss Marie , what a pleasure to see you . " She said calmly .

Miss Marie was her neighbor when she was a kid then she moved away . She was seeing her after ages .

Marie: " Emily what are you doing here child ? "

Emily: " I brought Ella out for a walk . Ella is my . . . . . . . . "

Marie: " Ella is your daughter . I know . I knew that yyou have a daughter , I was not aware that you named her Ella . "

Emily: " I guess everyone must be knowing it . So I will take leave now . It was a pleasure to meet you . I guess I will see you around . "

Marie: " Ok then I will accompany you . I think that you should not be alone right now . "

Emily: " What do you mean ? "

Marie: " You are going to your house , right ? "

Emily: " Mo I am not going to my house because I guess I don't belong there . I am going to the place I live . "

Marie: " Emily are you not aware ? "

Emily: " About what ? "

Marie: " About your dad , Kevin . "
