Kiara
"Kiara, my child since when have you started sharing your life matters with new friends and that too within mere days. I am not saying that he is bad or not trust worthy but I have known you all your life and you never trust anyone so easily that you will tell him about yourself so fast."
I opened my mouth to say something but words didn't seem to come out.
Grand added, "Does Noah like Parker? Or is he aware that you have narrated your life to him?"
Shit no! Why didn't that ever come to my mind?
"No"
"Why?"
"I don't know grand. In fact today is the first time I have thought about it."
This is all coming right now to my mind like some wave hitting the almost silent shore.
"Kia dear, I am not telling you that Noah bounds your life with every aspect that you consume, but my point is that why didn't he cross your mind at the first thought. When we decide to share our life with someone, it would mean that his presence matter to us the most", Robert explained.
"Robert, I have never seen Noah as my husband, he always seems like the right man of my life who knows the best way to balance my life, my best friend who knows me the best."
"A best friend for life and a partner for life can only be the same when there is love", he told me the sentence that I knew somewhere deep but never let it reach out.
"I am afraid, yes"
"I want you to reconsider your decision before it's too late. Yes, I want to hand over the property papers to you myself but not at the cost of your happiness for life. I can't be that selfish."
"I will definitely rethink over it grand and I love you so much for always being a source of guidance in my life", I hugged him.
"I love you too sweetheart and anything for my princess. Talk to Noah clearly about it as well dear", I nodded.
"I will and you take care of yourself grand. Your well being means the most to all of us and I will visit you again soon", I teared down.
"Aha! Yes sweetheart you don't worry about me. I am a strong old man", he chuckled.

After having a great time at my uncle and aunt's place we left for Paris at about 3 in the afternoon. I felt so good seeing Robert after such a long time. We had a long conversation not only on my wedding but all the old memories came down the lane.
But now is the most important decision of my life right in front of me standing tall and rigid. I have to make the right choice without being influenced by anyone. I have to talk to Noah about it all now clearly once we are back in California.
Noah broke my thoughts, "You seem tensed Jerry when I thought you would be very happy seeing Robert."
"Of course I am very happy seeing him but..." he was waiting for me to speak but the words didn't seem to find their way out of my throat.
"What happened, Kia? You can tell me without any hesitation", he said.
He stopped the car at the corner of the road and held me hand, "Is it regarding the wedding? If yes, you can still tell me what is it? As I told you earlier also that, I am ready to accept any of your decision, whether positive or negative and even if you say no, our friendship won't be affected, I promise you that."
"Nohi, I need some time but right now, I just want to enjoy the last few days that we have here and once we are back in California, I promise I will tell you everything on my mind." He smiled and went back to driving.
There was a silent between us which was comfortable yet not. I didn't want to talk about it in the last few days of my vacation so I decided to keep this thought for California.
Noah tried to make the atmosphere little soothing and so we started talking about our childhood tales. All the way we chatted around about it like we were back to the old days which were being dusted in our memory tunnel.
We reached Paris in the evening at about 7. Everyone was waiting for us and so we decided to immediately go for dinner and then the dark night consumed me.
*****
Today is the second last day of our super amazing trip and we are going to the famous Eiffel Tower, the reason for which people travel up to Paris. Aiden had inquired that the best hour for the view is the time just before sunset.
So, right now we are heading towards the Eiffel Tower. I wore white and yellow coral dress with a belt on my waist along with my beige wedges. I tied my hair in a long pony and applied some makeup.
Today since morning we have been relaxing our last day with each other. The thought of last day makes me feel sick that soon we won't be here in Paris and neither will Parker, Austin and Diego. We will be back to being busy in our lives and so will they.
"Hey beautiful", Parker clicked his fingers in front of me to get my attention.
"Sorry! I z-"
"Zoned out. I know. But what is making you feel so sad? We are going to Eiffel Tower. You should be happy. I think all you girls fantasize to come here with their men or something, right?" he said.
"Geez, that is over too cliché Park", I rolled my eyes.
"One second! Parker Watson, please tell me you do read such cliché romantic novels too", I smirked.
"What?! Where did that come from? No I don't. It's against my masculine image", he gave me a horrified expression.
"It's okay, I got my answer. You do read them. Don't worry princess your secret is safe with me", I winked.
"Kiara Pattinson this secret has to go with you till your grave", Parker fake threatened me while earning a chucking nod from me.
We reached at the entrance of the Eiffel Tower. Austin and Tamara went and got all of us the tickets to the top. We took the lift to the top while changing a few on the way. The moment we reached the top of the tower, I was taken-a-back with the breath taking view. The pictures which I always adored looking at seemed all very average when my eyes caught sight of reality.
The wind blowing was messing up my hair but it was the least for all I cared. The whole city of Paris looked like a small piece of land. It seemed like I was sitting on the clouds and seeing how little the world can be. I took a walk around the peak to capture every part of the view.
I stood by the edge and breathe the fresh air, ceasing the moment. From a distance, I saw how adorably Isabella and Aiden were standing. I turned and saw my other friends, Tam was laughing on something Austin said, while Jub, Noah and Diego were trying to locate places and buildings. My eyes scanned to search for Parker but I couldn't see him around them.
Distantly isolated from the others, I spotted Parker. He was admiring the beauty too while capturing it all on his DSLR camera. Suddenly he too saw me and instantly snapped a picture of mine. He smiled while looking at the picture and then me.
This moment felt so perfect and stupendous. I was going to miss all this so badly in California. That reminded me that an impeccable moment can never be left waste and needs to be turned into a memory and so I asked everyone for a group picture. All of us instantly got ready for one.
SNAP!
