"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to hurt you."
He said while bumping into her.
She almost fell but he got her and said, "I'm sorry miss ..."
she pointed to her name tag "Emma."
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to hurt you Emma." he said.
"Oh no, it's all right."
"What can i do for you as an apology?" he asked.
She replied "Buy me a coffee?"
"ok, cool maybe we could chat a bit."
"ya sure."

They found a quiet place and started to talk.
Sam was his name. he's 22 years old. 1 year older than Emma. They both like same things. So they instantly became best friends.
Emma was almost late for her work so she said, "I'm sorry Sam but i have to leave now. I am almost late for work. my manager would kill me if I'm late."
"Oh ok, It was a pleasure meeting you."
[smiles] "Same, before i leave can i get your number?"
Sam replied "ya sure."

Emma was thinking about him all the way to the store.
was this a coincidence? or fate?
she asked to herself.
~{*~*}~
It was evening.
Emma's shift was over.
She got home and freshen up.
She just took her phone, that's when she noticed a text from Sam.
it was - Wanna go out for a dinner tonight? -
she replied - ya sure but as friends-
-ya ya "as friends"- he replied
-time and place?-
-8:00 pm at Bruce Burgers?-
-ya it's my fav place-
-same see u then- Sam replied and went to get dressed.
~{*~*}~
Emma got dressed and was leaving.
She texted to Sam -leaving, I'll be there soon-
She took off in her car.
On the way she was smiling thinking about him. She was so happy to get a friend who have same interest as her. She felt lucky.
She thought "I haven't asked him about his life yet. I should ask him today."
She reached.
~{*~*}~
Sam reached there before some minutes Emma has arrived.
They sat down and begin to talk and laugh.
After some time Emma began to ask Sam about his life.
Emma- "Sam we know each other enough for so long so i think it would be good if we know about our life better."
Sam- "ya sure ask."
"what you do for living?"
"I run a designer store. you?"
"I work in a boutique store. what about your parents?"
Sam looked down with a downcast eyes.
"It's ok if you don't want to tell me" she said
"It's fine, i can't keep it as a secret from you for so long so i will tell you."
He looked at her and started to talk.
"Both of my parents died in a car accident when i was 19. they died 3 year ago. i got this designer store as an inheritance from my dad. My hero is my dad. his name is David. David Finch. my mom Grace. My dad loved both of us a lot as well as his job so we were a rich and a loved family. [sighs] It feels weird talking about them."
"I'm sorry" Emma said
"It's fine, what about your parents?"
"I guess we also have same life. My dad left me when i was 17. Because of my mom. She is diagnosed with cancer. At first it was ok my mom could work and pay for her treatment. But it got worse and i had to drop-out from college and work. And here i am working the job that i don't like that much."
"If you need any help or money you can ask me i can help you i have a lot of money so don't bother to ask me" Sam said
[smiles] "of course i will"
~{*~*}~
They both left by saying goodbye.
Emma reached home.
And got into her pajamas and went to bed.
She started to think...
"I feel so sorry for him. I should hang-out with him often. He will be feeling lonely. What can i do? I should sleep i have work early tomorrow."
~{*~*}~
Sam was going through some files when he suddenly though about Emma.
"Poor girl, she must be working so hard for her mother. I should help her by giving some money for the treatment. She might need it more than i do."
