It was already evening. The sky was the mixture of three beautiful colours; purple, blue and pink. Tiny, butterflies danced all around the environment looking for sweet nectar. The flowers in which they touched spread out a romantic kind of scent that filled the environment making the evening more pleasant. Fresh, windy, cool and crispy air started whistling like an invisible ghost. The huge, trees standing in between the streetlights- along the road, whispered how beautiful the atmosphere was.

Sapphire and Jade gently walked alongside but they weren't holding hands. Sapphire watched Jade as they walked through the path but suddenly, a passer by mistakenly hit Sapphire by the shoulder and walked away without muttering an apology. She clamoured in fear but Jade held her back.

"Are you okay?" He asked with so much concern but before Sapphire didn't reply. He traced her hand and held it tight into his, intertwined.

Noticing this, she looked at his eyes as a smile slowly spread through her leaf-shaped lips. With this, she stopped smiling as a frown covered it immediately so Jade won't think otherwise.

"What?" Jade asked, concerned, again. His eyes glittering over hers.

She nodded her head negatively to reply him nothing.

"Do you like this?" He asked.

A shiver ran through her spine as an awkward feeling played on her mind. She just wasn't comfortable with him but Jade feels cool with all of it. All of these contract relationship feelings which is probably fake.

Later, the bought a can of fruit juice and sipped it along as the walked.

At any rate, I'm being really magnanimous today, so remember that." Jade muttered as they took a seat beside a bench along the roadside.

"You stood me up without a text so don't complain. Also, I shouldn't owe you anything if you're really being magnanimous." She sneered.

"That's why I made all that time for you last time, like a crazy person!" Jade whooshed out like a ball while Sapphire folded her lips together and pressed it down, giving her face a weird look.

"And yet, I'm the one who came to you. Not the other way round. Nothing is for free in the world you know?" He added.

"Wow! You're so stingy."

"No, I'm just starting the obvious. The most important thing I learned from a Governor is to never forget about a debt. Whether it may be a debt you have to repay, or one that you have to be repaid for." He explained and took a gulp of drink down his throat

"You've learned a lot, then. I know you're well experienced but that sounds to me like you're really inconsiderate of others." Sapphire took a sip from hers.

"That's exactly right. Bring considerate is only a hindrance in business." He explained further. With his, Sapphire made the same weird look from earlier and rolled her eyes around in imagination.

"What's with that look on your face?" Curiosity laced Jade's voice as he asked.

"I'm just wondering how it feels to be Jade Alejandro. It must be so nice to be so high-and-mighty like you."

Although, Sapphire and Jade were silent, they walked passionately together till they returned back to Sapphire's apartment. She baded him good night as he drove away into the dark streets.


The Following Morning...

Jade barged into his office as if he was pressed or something. Everyone working, stood up to greet him by he didn't even see any eye contacts.

"See me immediately." Jade gave a eye on Mr. Tim and banged the door at their confused faces.

"Umm.. w..why. why does he wants to see me?" Mr. Tim turned to others with his hands, already shivering. A feeling of euphoria ran through him, immediately.
