Chapter 25
Today, I saw them in “Fizzy” and some weeks before they were shopping together. You knew everything and didn’t tell me. Weston shouts. Weston, listen to me going for shopping and chatting doesn’t mean they are having an affair and I am not like you that I see connections between two people when they already had a business relationship. I don’t act like cupid who is fixated on these silly small things, He looks at me and says in calmer tone that you would have told me when you saw them together. You know I was already occupied with my problems. I tell him.
I let her go. The baby should be with his real father and Peter also wants to be with her. I could feel the pain in his voice, he is completely broken. He gave so much time to this relationship. I remember my mother words once she said they are soulmates and made for each other. See, how time changes and what destiny shows us no one knows. I am glad that you did the right thing. She should be happy too. He closes his eyes and a tear rolls down his cheeks. He is in pain and I cannot do anything. I understand this feeling as Elena felt the same that day.
Weston! Listen my friend, he opens his eyes and Logan also join us and tries to pacify him. Life is a journey and we meet people some makes us happy, some sad or even break our heart but journey doesn’t stop at one station. We continue because everything happens for a reason and we are not capable enough to understand God’s will. So, accept and be ready for a new turn as he is going to give what is best for you. Weston listens Logan’s words and wipes off his tears and speaks. ‘You are right’. I have to learn to forget and forgive. Everyone needs to learn this. After all life is not so long to keep rage in our heart. Logan again continues. Evan’s choice is not wrong. We are glad that you have come into our life. Weston says and hugs him and I smile.
It is too late now I must go and cancel all the arrangements we made for wedding he says to me. I think we should bill to Peter and we all laugh together. I drop him to his car and wishes goodnight. Evan, in the morning I shall call Sarah to cancel all our business invitations and inform your parents too. He says, ‘Will you inform your parents’? I will. He feels better now. Shall I tell you something? What’s more? For today I think this is enough. He sits in car and ready to go. Sarah likes you. You were his crush from school in fact she loves you. He astonished quickly comes out of the car. Are you serious? No, this is not possible I shared everything about my love life with her and she behaved normal.
She has learnt to behave mature as she had gone through hard times in life. She wanted to see you happy and in love, we give, don’t expect returns. My tone is cherished. I think you should act positive about her feelings and after all life must go on. Logan’s magic, he laughs. So, Sarah told you this thing and you hid again. He complaints. My dear friend you were going to marry Carol and expect me to talk about her love secrets which belongs to you. I don’t think it is appropriate. I explain. She is a very good friend. I Know I am just telling that she likes you. I am not expecting anything from you for her. We don’t plant love it grows own its own. I say by looking into his eyes. He hugs and leaves.
This Christmas really means a lot to me. My mother finally accepts my relationship with Logan. I got the message from Elena wishing ‘Merry Christmas’ and ‘Sorry’ for what she did. I reply “Merry Christmas and stay happy always.” We all will make a plan to go to Georgia as I buy that house of Simon and I want to give a surprise to Logan. Sarah and Weston go well with each other. They are now spending more time together. Carol is with Peter and they are going to marry soon. Simon has also started a new relationship with someone else.
New year evening, we reach Georgia and Logan happy and surprised. My mother, father, sister Clare and brother-in-law, Sarah, Weston and his parents’ uncle Bryson and aunt Collins also joins us. We all laugh, eat, dance and sing together my mother sings her another song:
I take the night train,
I take an airplane, '
Cause you belong to me, I just wanna say,
ain't gonna let you away,
'Cause you belong to me.
She sings and Logan plays piano. Weston and Sarah dance and suddenly he proposed her and she says ‘YES’ we all applaud. They kiss each other and just then my mobile rings and I see Elena’s number. She called to wish me new year and informs that she is marrying this coming 14 February and invites me. It’s valentine’s day! Great, I will come. I ask Logan for dance and talk about Elena’s wedding. He is glad. See love never fades it just flows wherever it has to. He says and I say ‘love is complicated’ and he laughs and we kiss. Thank you for family, friends and for everything. His eyes shine when he speaks. Pleasure is all mine I say. Sky shots coloured the whole sky and we enjoyed gazing at the sky.
