A walk to Destiny.

Ian

Alarm rang at 7 am, Aria got up instantly without being lethargic. It’s Sunday.

She saw Jack is still sleeping and she did not even move by the alarm bell.

Aria looked at her and moved out of room.

She stood on the fence of balcony and tingling her fingers on baby plant.

She heard the cringing of door and footsteps, she did not look back to check if it is Jack.

In few seconds she realised someone is standing beside her.

Hi- A manly voice said.

Hey Hi- Aria reverted with a smile.

I am Ian, Jackline’s friend, You are Samaira right?

Yes, Jack calls me Aria.- She said.

Yes, I heard about you yesterday, you are Jack’s best friend and flat mate also you two work together for the same firm.- Ian factualized his knowledge that he gained yesterday from Jack about her life.

So, what is that made you think of marrying Jack- Aria asked with a sharp look.

Ian looked at her intensely and replied,

I don’t know, I barely know her. She is daughter of my mother’s friend and our mom’s made us meet and expect us to know each other closely, so we may get married.

Aria smiled, ‘Do you want me to believe that fact that you have never seen or know Jack before despite your mother’s are good friends- Aria said.

My parents separated when I was five, I am not sure if I have known Jack before that. My father achieved my custody and mom could meet me only twice a week. I was in Florida and mom lived in Georgia. Mom used to travel around seven hours to meet me and she did this constantly until now when I turned 25.

Now since dad is not alive, I am living with mom in Georgia - Ian dictated an excerpt from his life.

I am sorry to hear about your dad- Aria said.

Ian smiled and kept her eyes off from Aria and said- I loved him.

I am sure- Aria said and smiled.

So, what are you thinking regarding Jack, it’s Sunday today, you two should plan something. - Aria suggested.

Ian did not reply to Aria.

Aria turned her body and leaned over the fence.

Ian, Jack is sweet and intelligent. She is well aware how to take care of people and how to respond to the situations, She is not very playful, She is very intense. She can be your partner in love, life, business, car, clothes and whatever best you can think of.

She is the best go to person for any advice, even our firm is soon promoting her to the position of Advisor. She is Ambivert kind of. She doesn’t party much but there must be some things left those she should experience with you hugely.

Try some time out with her you’ll enjoy her company.- Aria said.

Aria, you are beautiful- Ian said.

Thank you- Aria replied and smiled.

Did you find Jack beautiful?- Aria asked.

Yes, She is- Ian replied while keeping her eyes off from Aria’s face.

Compliment her the same way- Aria said.

I.. I will try to see her the way you said- Ian said with an unsure tone.

Aria was still perplexed of indifference that she could sense in Ian.

Did you ever date any girl before Jack?- Aria asked.

No, I had a good friend in my school days but she left the states, may be something may cook up if we would have been in touch- Ian replied and laughed.

Why did you loose the touch then?-Aria asked.

Because she got married- Ian said.

Too soon, wasn’t that a tender age- Aria inquired.

She was 22, when she got married.- Ian answered.

When are you getting married- Ian asked.

Aria was about to reply I am in no mood to be married right now, but the wires in her brain worked and thank god she remembered what Jack stated last night.

Soon- Aria said and left to her room.

Jack was awake, she was looking at Aria very keenly. Aria didn’t spoke a word and sat on her side of bed doing something in her cell phone.

Breaking the silence Jack spoke,

My mom gave my phone number to Ian, he did check my w******p profile picture which shows you and me, he expected you to be Jackline.

Whatt? Dumb, he should have asked you who among those is you- Aria said.

I don’t think he likes me- Jack said.

I like Ian, he is good looking, my mom wants me to be married to him and have a good life and family even his mom want us to be married but does not seem to be much interested in me- She added.

Give him some time, the kind of life he has seen where his parents separated when he was at a very tender age, that could be a reason of his doubt and yes you are beautiful it is just a mis apprehension that he noticed me in your profile picture- Aria said.

Jack’s phone beeped, there was a watsapp text from Ian.

Should we go on a shopping date?

Jack smiled and replied- Yes.
