Emy shook him up. His eyes were full. Stella’s eye locked with him. She sat opposite to him. He cleared his face. Emy sat next to her and ordered coffee. She turned to John and asked,
“What happened to you both? “
Stella said nothing.
“I love her, ma’am”, John continued, “ I love her from the moment I met her. “
Stella stunned and lean back on the chair resting her back on the chair. Her tears flew out. Emy asked, “Are you out of your mind? You know about her situation and what’s she is going through. “
“I know, I know everything.. I respect her, by knowing everything. I am not trying to use her or taking her situation beneficiary. “
Stella stayed still, hearing all she is getting more and more anger, sad, shame… Its complicated. She can’t explain her feeling or emotion.
John continued, “ Ma’am, I am not going to let her handle her situation alone. I want to be a part of her life. I love her, care for her. I love Charlie. I will love him always. “
Emy looked at Stella and placed her hand on her shoulder, “What you have to say, dear? “
Her reply was couple of tears and hugged Emy.
“Stella, please don’t cry, I can’t see you crying. If I am wrong please say it. I will go away from you but I will be loving you forever. “ John said.
Stella released herself from Emy and turned to John.
John grasped her hand, “ Please dear don’t cry. And never say ‘no’ to me. “
She looked up to his eyes. Both pair of eyes were full.
Emy left them there. John didn’t let her hand free, instead hold it more tightly and said, “ I won’t let you go, I won’t leave you alone. “
Stella replied, “I don’t know what to say. “
“You think about it and tell me what you feel. “
After few minutes they left the coffee shop and went back to work.
