Stealing You

Episode 4

Jaz's Point Of View,

Everything was going great until she said me to go inside with her, I mean I was feeling great with her but I was already late and I just can not afford to go inside with her coz that would be unfair as my team was waiting for me for the practice and coach already scolded me for getting late so that would be so wrong if I will not go inside, but then when she forced me to go inside with her, I just could not believe that she did that for real, I was thinking she was dumb coz she looks so innocent but I was so wrong as she was so smart and she was even having my video and if police see that video I can get arrest for hurting a dog, gosh, that was so complicated so I just had to go with her, but I just could not understand why she wanted me to go with her.

"Hey, I am Ela, and it is really nice to meet you", she said to me and my heart just started beating so damn fast, I could not believe that it was all happening for real, it all look likes a dream for me, but just then my phone started ringing and I just cursed under my breath, I just pulled my out from my pocket and saw Bob's name and closed my eyes.

"Hey, I just need to take this call, wait a minute", I said to her and she nodded her head and sat on the table behind her.

"Hello", I said as I answered the call.

"Where the hell you are Jaz, you just know so well that the whole team is waiting for you, where are you, why are you not coming", said Bob in an angry tone, and I just took a deep breath.

"I am so sorry Bob, I am at the hospital", I said slowly and there was a silence for some seconds.

"What, what did you say, you are at the hospital, why, what happen", he asked me and I just took a deep breath again, I just know that I am stupid and they will call me stupid for taking a dog to the hospital coz they are just like that, they are different and they are not kind at all.

"Yeah, I got an accident and I will be at the ground in some time, just do your practice until I come back", I said.

"Are you fine, are you injured, how did that happen, will you please tell me", Bob asked me, he was angry before but he is my friend too, maybe he cares about me.

"I am fine Bob, I will be there soon", I said and hang up the call and took a deep breath, I just know it was so hard to make him understand, I just do not know how they all will react when I will go there, I was just checking something on my phone when I felt a hand on my shoulder and I just turn my head and saw Ela was standing behind me and I just put my phone back in my pocket, she was about to open her mouth to say something but she got stopped when she saw the doctor was coming close to us.

"How is Dammy doctor, is he fine now", Ela asked the doctor and the way she was asking it was looking like she was talking about a guy or man, she is something for sure.

"Well, he is better than before now but you can not take him home yet, he has to stay here for some days at least, so he needs a proper treatment for that and some blood also", said the doctor and Ela made a sad face.

"Is he serious", Ela asked him with a sad face and the doctor just smiled at her.

"No he is not, he would be fine soon, you just give me your number and other details, I will call you when you can take him with you, okay", said the doctor and Ela just nodded her head slowly, she was looking so upset and then her eyes met mine and I just forced a smile to her.

"Hey, do not worry, he will be fine soon", I said to her and she just forced a smile on me and nodded her head, she just gave some details to that doctor and turned her head to me, she wanted to say something to me, I am getting late already but still I am waiting for her to speak.

"Are you sure that he will be fine", she asked me as she was looking so upset and I instantly nodded my head.

"He will be fine, trust me", I said ad she just pulled me into a hug, I was too shocked to react, I mean my heart was beating so damn fast and I just do not know what should I do now, she was hugging me and crying for a dog, gosh, she is so stupid, I was trying to care her hair but my hands were shivering, I just do not know if she will like this or not and I should touch her or not but what I am saying and thinking, she is hugging me already and I did not say anything to her.

"Hey, shhh, relax, I am telling you he will be fine soon, nothing will happen to him", I said to her and caressed her hair, and she then pulled herself back and she was looking at me with guilty eyes, seems like she was feeling bad about what she did, I do not think that she did something wrong.

"I, I just, I am so sorry, I did not mean to do that, I mean I just did not know", she was trying to explain but I just put my finger on her lips and I felt something weird in my whole body, she was something different for real and I just do not know how should I calm my self, my heart is beating so damn fast now.

"Relax, that was not a big deal at all", I said to her and she just started looking down, her teary eyes were making me feel bad and I was just staring at her pretty eyes and shivering lips, she was fine just now and now I just do not know what happened to her all of the sudden.

"Amm, yeah, still I am so sorry, I should not have done that, but I am just pretty emotional and could not control that so I just started crying, I just felt that I will lose him", she said and I wiped her tears with my thumb as she was just looking straight into my eyes.

"I can understand that just calm down okay, nothing will happen to him, he will be fine soon", I said to her and she just nodded her head.

"By the way thank you for coming with me and giving me a ride here, I did not what would happen if you did not have helped", she said to me and I just started looking down, she was taunting me or something, I started feeling so bad as it all happened coz of me, I was the reason for that, I hit that poor dog, and now I am feeling so embarrassed.

"Hey, you do not need to feel bad, I am not taunting you at all, you are really a nice guy and I just know you are feeling bad coz you hit him, but you had a chance to run away from there but you chose to stay and helped me, so you are a nice person and kind, so thank you for that", she said to me and my heart was beating so damn fast after hearing her words, she was so sweet, she did not let me feel down about it, she is really humble and kind.

"Okay then I need to go now, I am already late and you are also late, so see you", she said to me, did she say see you, is that mean that she wants to see me again, gosh, I started feeling so happy all of the sudden, my heart is like coming out from my chest.

"Oh yeah, I am also late, see you too, it was nice meeting you Ela", I said to her and she smiled so brightly at me, we both just walked out of the hospital, and she just wiped her face and walked towards the corner of the road.

"What are you doing here, I mean are you waiting for someone", I asked her and she just looked at me and forced a smile.

"Amm well, I am waiting for a cab actually, I am late already so I can not go there by walking", she said to me and I just smiled so hard in my heart, is she kidding me, I am here and she is waiting for the cab, that is not fair.

"I can drop you, I mean I can drop you if you want, just tell me where do you want to go", I asked her and she just looked at me with wide eyes, she was holding a bag to which I did not even notice at all.

"Are you sure, I mean you were already late too and getting calls, are you sure that I am not bothering you", she asked me and I instantly shook my head.

"Of course not, that will be fine, you can come with me, just come and sit", I said to her but she was still feeling so hesitant and I just came close to her and held her hand.

"I am telling you that it is okay, I can drop you, so you do not need to think that much, just come with me and tell me where do you want to go", I said to her and made her sit beside me, she just sat beside me and held my shoulder again, seems like she is scared of bikes, that is why she is holding me so tightly.

"Just take a deep breath and relax", I said to her and she just nodded her head and took a deep breath.

"Well you just have to drop me just before the main ground", she said and my eyes just got wide after hearing that.

"What, why, I mean why you want to go there", I asked her and she just got paused for a second.

"I mean I am just asking coz I am also going there, to the main ground, that is why I am just asking why you want to go there", I asked her again.

"Oh, I see, well, I work there", she said shortly and I am getting more curious than before, what does she mean she work there, I need to ask more her.

"That is great, where do you work, may I ask if you do not mind", I asked her and she just cleared her throat and looked at me and I instantly turned my head as she was looking in the mirror so I just had to remove my gaze, she was so pretty in real.

"Well, I work for the Thomas group", she said and my eyes got wide again, she was not kidding right, she was working there for real.

"Really, do you work there, that is so close to the main ground", I said and she just hummed after that, I was getting so excited coz now I am thinking that I will get more chances to see her now, or maybe I can see her daily from now, gosh, mere this thought is making me so excited.

"Stop, stop, we are reached already", she said to me and I just stopped the bike, I did not notice that we reached already.

"Oh yeah, we are here", I said and she just jumped down and I roamed my fingers in my hair, I was feeling so happy and excited all of the sudden, but she is going and I am feeling so bad, I want her to stay more or maybe I want to spend some more time with her.

"It was nice to meet you Ela", I said to her and she also smiled at me.

"Same here Jaz", she said and turned her head to leave.

"Ela", I called her name and she turned her head to me.

"See you", I said and she smiled again at me.

"See you", she said and got inside, I was still standing there and waiting if she will look at me again but she did not, she just went straight inside and I just took a deep breath, I just rubbed my eyes, she went already and I also need to go before they call me again, I started my bike again and made my way towards the ground, it was close from here and soon I just reached there, I parked my bike and headed inside.

"Oh my god, finally you are here Jaz, how are you now, and what happened to you and all this blood, tell me what happen", Bob was the one who asked me all these questions and I just roamed my hands in my hair again.

"I am fine guys, do not worry, let us practice now, I am so sorry that I am late", I said to them and Bob and Jack just came close to me and Bob just tapped my shoulder.

"I am glad that you find", Bob said to me and I just forced a smile on them and we all started practising, football is my passion and I just want to be a famous and successful footballer, and I just know someday I will achieve all my goals, I know my teams treat me as a caption coz I am the one who is the best in my team and that is why they all trust my strategy and I am so happy about it, the coach also helps us and sometimes I feel so happy coz I am the part of this team, my team already won so many matches before and so many people already knows me, that is something nice for me but I am the one who does not care about others, I believe in giving my best and I just know I can do that, my heart was so calm and just then her face came in front of my eyes.

"Hey Jaz, what are you thinking", Bob asked me and I just shook my head, my team was perfect and if we keep doing our practice like that, I am sure we will be the best team in the whole country.

"Nothing bro, it was just about our future", I said and smiled and he did not ask me again, I just keep practising until we all were so nice and seemed perfect.

"So boys, are we ready to play and ready to win", I asked them and they all cheered with me and I just smiled at them.

"Perfect, today's practice is over, you all can go home now", I said to them and they all cheered for me again, I was happy somehow, everybody almost left from there and I was just sitting on the bench and using my phone, I just felt there was still someone and I just looked up to see and Bob was staying there with a raised brow.

"Hey Bob what is up", I asked him and closed my phone, he came close to me and sat beside me.

"Can you tell me what happened in the morning, why you were late and all this blood", he asked me and I just took a deep breath and told him the truth, amm, I mean the half-truth?

"Well I just hit a dog accidentally and he was bleeding coz of me, so I just had to take him to the hospital, I could not leave him there like that, so that is why I got late", I said to him and he was just staring at me like he was waiting for more.

"What happened", I asked him and he just folded his hands to his chest and I just looked at him with confused eyes,

"That is what you have to say", he asked me and I just nodded my head.

"Amm yeah, what else you want to hear", I asked him and he just took a deep breath.

"Who was the girl sitting behind you", he asked me all of the sudden and I just looked at him with wide eyes.

"What are you talking about", I asked him and he just smirked at me.

"Come on Jaz, there is no way that you can lie to me, I am your friend and you know so well that I care about you, I always consider you as my close friend and you just have to tell me the truth", he said to me and I just cleared my throat, well he was right but I do not know what should I say him now, should I tell him the truth or I should I cover it and lie, the way he was looking at me I do not think that I can lie to him anymore.

"I am not lying at all, I just", I was trying to cover but he just cut me off.

"Jaz, I saw she was sitting behind you and you dropped her at Thomas building, so you better tell me the truth", he said to me and my eyes just got wide after hearing her words, f**k, where the hell did he see me, he was at the ground then how did he see me.

"I just do not know what to say, I was just helping", I said and he was still looking at me with narrow eyes, I just know that he wants to hear the whole story and I just have to tell him coz he is not gonna spare me like that.

"Bob, what is wrong with you, I mean you never took interest in my life like this before", I asked him and he just laughed a little at me.

"Jaz, what made you think that, I always know what was happening in your life, even when you did not know about that", he said to me and I just looked at him with wide eyes, was he saying that for real.

"Are you f*****g kidding me", I asked him and he just shook his head.

"Well, no, I am serious, you f*****g cried last year coz a girl you liked did not like you back and she even left the country, so you were so heart broken and fraigle taht time and you said that you had fever and you were not well that time, but that was not true", he said to me and I just looked at him with eyes, what the f**k, how the hell he know that, when he said all those words, I remembered my last year when I said Emily that I liked her but she said that a guy like me need someone perfect and she is not perfect and she said I deserve someone more btter than her and also she said she is leaving this country too, I was so heart broken that time, she was the very first girl I said something like that, but she rejected me and left me, I was so weak and angry that time, I could not belive that was happening with me for real, that was the toghest time for me and coming out from that trauma was so difficult for me and it took a lot for me to come out and now I am fine and I even forget her too.

"How the hell you know that Bob, no one knows about that, I mean I did not allow anyone to know about that", I asked him and he just smiled at me.

"Jaz, I told you that I know everything about you already", he said to me and I just rolled my eyes at him.

"But how, I need to know how and why", I asked him and he just laughed at me.

"I told you that you are important to me and I always consider you as my close friend and I need to know about everything about my close friends", he said to me and I just took a deep breath and glared at him.

"You think that I am gonna trust her, you must be in touch with Emily", I said to him and he just laughed again.

"Well, I have no connection with her, she still did not come back so I do not know anything about her," he said to me but I am now getting so angry, how the hell he knows all these things about me.

"Then how the hell you know about that", I asked him.

"Or seems like you know nothing more than this, so you better stop being over smart in front of me", I said to him and I was about to get up from my seat but his next words stopped me at my place again and I just closed my eyes again.

"I just know that why you were not coming at the ground in the morning", he said and I just turned my head and looked at him.

"You know nothing about me", I said to him.

"I just know that you were worried about your tournament fee", he said to me and I just could not move from my place after hearing those words.
