My Baking Love ( On hold )

Chapter Three: Can I get your phone no???

JAKE'S POV

I felt disappointed and shattered all of a sudden. I came out of the hospital's room and went straight to the car park area. I thought Peter was following me. But he was not. So I was waiting for him leaning on my favourite silverado folding my hands on my chest.After about 10 mins Peter went across me to the back of the truck.

I turned back to see him when I saw doc Jason and Linda getting in to their car. Then Peter blocked my vision and handed Linda's helmet and keys.

" Jake I have parked her motorbike in the two wheelers parking. So go and give her these." He said pointing to Linda. I'm sure Peter knew that I felt something for Linda.

"Thanks buddy. I'll be back."
I smiled at peter and ran towards Jason's car which was about to start.

I saw Linda sitting in the passenger seat of the car. I caught her eyes by mine. I couldn't help myself from just staring at her.

I was dumbstruck on seeing her beautiful grey eyes.

"Hey Jake. What's the matter? Why did you come running ? " she said confusedly.

" I forgot to give them to you. They are yours" I said handing over her helmet and the keys. "Your ducatti is parked at the two wheeler parking." I said and smiled at her.

"Thank you so much Mr. Jake. Um...... can I get your phone no.?" She said with her beautiful smile.

"Yeah sure. Here's my card. You can call me if you need any help." I said and started to stare at her again.

"Thanks Mr. Jake"

"Just Jake. .....you can call me jake"

" Okay Jake. See you around sometime bye."

" Yeah sure. Bye"

I was literally staring at the car till it went out of site.

It was already 5'o clock. Peter and I started towards our mansion in Manchester to meet my family.

We reached our mansion gate in about 15 mins from the Manchester hospital. The big grand black iron gate opened for us. We drove around the fountain and stoped at the entrance. There stood my dear billionaire and his beloved. Yeah my dad and mom.

" Hey dad. Hey mom." I hugged them tightly than ever.

"Cummon by boy. How was your journey."

"Welcome home son." mom and dad greeted me with immense happiness. I was home after 2 months.

Dad and I went to our mansion's living room while my mom went back to the kitchen to prepare tonight's dinner.

I was really tired of the long journey today. I could not stop thinking about Linda. She was so sweet that I couldn't forget her. My dad came back after talking to Peter about his family journey tomorrow. Then I tried to clear my thought of Linda and started talking to my dear father about some business stuffs.

"Son......How's the girl you admitted in the hospital? Is she alright??"

"Ahh........Yeah dad. She is fine. The doc in the hospital was her friend. So he took her. Why are you asking about that???"

"Nothing.....just......"he stoped abruptly with a smile.

"So......Are you talking about my son's girlfriend????" My mom giggled going towards my father.

"Ohh.....cummon you two. Did that Peter......stupid friend of mine tell you guys somethin??? Please.....mom, can we have our dinner? I'm really hungry" I changed the topic about Linda.

" Okay. ....okay son. You both start your dinner. I'll be back in few minutes. I have a call to do." Dad said taking out his virtue and kissed mom in her cheek.

" Uhoh. .........I think you guys are too old for this " I laughed out loud.

"Haha..........you will know this when you're in love with your love...." he said with a sarcastic smile.

Finally mom and I left the living room for dinner. Mom talked about the things I missed in this two months. We talked for sometime till my father came back to join us in the dinner.

"Dad....is everything okay. It looks like something is wrong."

"Uhm......son there is a problem in the testing department."

"Anything serious??" I was getting nervous because it was totally under my control till yesterday.

" No...... not so serious but you'll have to tell someone to look after it in your absence."

" Yeah dad. I have given that job to harry. He is off for today. He will be there tomorrow"

"That's great my boy. You are becoming a good businessman" he gave me the same smile that I've been seeing for years.

After dinner mom and dad were to bed early. I went to our backyard thinking about Linda. I thought she didn't feel the same as I did for her. If she had........then she would have called me by now. My eyes were blurred completely with Linda's pictures. I was sitting near the swimming pool and it was almost midnight. I missed my home so badly in just two months. And the worst part is again I'll have to be there in about a couple of weeks. I took out my iPhone and clicked a picture of the swimming pool in front of me in moonlight. I posted the pic on my instagram account quoting 'lonely'. I started to yarn in a few minutes. I nearly dragged myself to my bedroom and fell asleep.

**********

The next morning it was almost 8'o clock when I got up. I dragged myself to my bathroom and woke up in the shower. I came out of the bathroom with only a piece of towel tied on my hip. I was standing in front of my closet. I saw my favourite casual wears. When I was young I usually wear those on sundays to church. And it was Sunday today. I smiled thinking of my childhood days. I got all dressed up in 5 minutes when my mom called out for breakfast. I went down to the dining area and sat beside my father. We ate our breakfast in silence. We were on the way to church when my father told me about Rachel Clifford.

"Mr. Mitchel Clifford told me that his daughter Rachel reached Manchester last night. And Mr. Mitchel wants you to meet his daughter Jake. Hope you like her."

I was actually stunned by his last sentence. "What.....Like her???? You are not trying to get us married...Are you dad????".

"Well son.... uh we have not decided it. But only if you both wish"

"Dad please if it is so then I'm so sorry. I'm not into it" I said my hands in the air.

"Is that because of that girl son?" My mom asked from beside me.

"Which girl?"

"The girl you admitted in the Manchester hospital. Do you love her?"

"Ohh mom please.........can you guys please close this chapter. I'm really frustrated and getting stressed more." I said them in an angry tone.
