This project with the LDJ company seems really hectic to me

What to say! Ours always get with new companies to work with. These newbees gives headache everytime!

It was afternoon. Adam and Christine were taking a walk around the riverside. There city was on the bank of a big, beautiful river. It was a beauty spot for visiting.Family gets here for picnic Couples often come their for dates,

Ah! I hate this!

Let's not talk about work now! After office we are not colleagues anymore, right?

What are we then? Christine asked with a mischievous glee on her face.

Adam stared and rubbed his neck awkwardly not knowing what to say!

Umm.... I don't know. You tell me,
what are we?

Christine took a few seconds to answer,
"I know neither. We are not just friends anymore, May be more than friends? What do you think?"

"Can I hold your hand?" was Adam's reply

"Sure! Why you even asking?" Cristine said and then held Adam's hand herself.

All the blood in Adam's body rushed to his face giving it a crimson hue. He let go of her at once!

Christine did not know.

She did not know Adam did not want to hold her hand as friends, he wanted to hold her hand as more than friends, as couple!

But he said nothing, only went on walking holding hands together.

"If I get you something, you will take it right?"

"You mean gifts?"

He opened the back side of his car and brought out a Huge Teddy bear to the awe of Jenny. It was bigger then her, probably the biggest she has ever seen! The teddy was as if asking her for the softest hug!

"For me?" she almost shouted like a little child as she could not hid her excitement.

The man tried to smile while staring at her, "Yes! For you."

She grabbed the bear as the tight as possible and then screamed, "thanks"

The man looked at her with satisfaction while a tint of sadness lingered in his heart.

"How do you know I like soft toys? I have a lot of dolls at home. I do have teddy bear as well, but as big as this? Never! I don't even know where to keep it!

"You are happy I got you this?"

"I am the happiest!" She showed all her teeth.

"This going to get you trouble at home?"

"I don't care. I am taking it."

This is really great that you are keeping our friendship a secret, thank you.

"You are welcome.I will always keep it secret for your safety if it needs! " Jenny smiled.

"It is needed. You know I deal with a lot of wrong types of people in my job, so yeah, It's important."
