The Bet ( ON HOLD)

chapter 4

Matthew's P.O.V

The whole night I couldn't sleep. Well that's not a new thing. Often I have to stay awake to complete all the works. I don't like to delay my works, everything should be done on the estimated time. And then I have an early morning flight, so much work load. I will be out for a week and so many pending files. 

After like working for long 5 hours with 5 cups of cappuccino finally all files are done. Now I have exactly  6 hours left then I will be flying to New York. Its been like ages I left that city and never went back. Now I am going to meet the very first and the only love of my life. I was waiting for this day for so long. I don't know how I will face her. I was the only one who fucked up everything. But what if she is committed now how I will see her with another guy? I can't even imagine. Yea there is a huge chance she must have moved on however I broke her trust and her heart now she might have got someone to join those broken pieces and cherish her with the love which she deserves. But what about me that guilt kills me every second. I know now she hates me. I must the one she hated the most now. But I still love her, she is my first love and the only love and always will be the one to rule my heart. This time I am gonna apologize no matter what I have to do.

I hope she will come this time.

A sudden knock brought me back from my long but endless thinking.

"Come in"I said.

"Matt you should head home now that your work is done. We have a early morning flight to catch. So its better for you to take some rest"George my the most trustworthy bodyguard as well as my very efficient employee said to me in  a concerned tone. He used to work with my dad and now he works with me. He treats me like his son which he don't have his own so he takes care of me like his own son.

I smiled"Okay let's go. I really need some sleep"I got up from my comfy couch and headed towards the lift.

"George did Mr. Stephenson told you something about the tender?"I asked

"No he did call but he didn't say anything about that."he paused for a second"Matt he is worried about you. You are going to New York after so many years. You left that city with so many events. He is your father though you two are not in good terms but still you are his only son, your sister too left your dad now you are cold with him. Talk to him once son"he said.

I don't have a close relation with my dad since my mum died only because of him as he cheated her. I really hate him for that. He is the reason for my mum's death. I will never forgive him for cheating my mum.

"You know George I really hate that man. He is not really my father anymore. Leave it I don't really want to spoil my mood. And don't worry about me I am fine, I am strong enough to face New York"I said.

6 hours latter

I wake up with a little jerk when the flight landed. Finally I am in New York now after so much fucking long time. I step out of the flight and was hit by the cool breeze of New York.

No matters what happened with me in past I have a deep love for this city. It's not only my birth place but also the place where my life took a very big turn, I lost my mum and then lost my best friend and last but not the least the love of my life.

"A girl named Jasmine is here to pick us and she must be waiting at the exit"George drag me out of my endless thought.

I nodded and moved towards the exit.

There I saw a young girl with blonde hair waiting with a banner which says my name.

George went first and asked "Jasmine right?" He scared the girl with his cold attitude.

I smirk.

"Yee..s yes sir I am Jasmine" she answered in a shaky tone.

"Hey don't scare the little girl. Hi I am Matthew Stephenson"I said and then she relaxed a bit before that she was scared as hell.

"Oh! Hiiee welcome Mr. Stephenson. We should go now someone is already waiting for us. Lets go. Follow me"she said.

Then she pointed at a girl with black wavy hair with little chococlate brown highlight at the edge with a guy who was holding her. They reminded me of her. I used to hold her like this when we were bestfriends. 

We went towards them.

"Mr. Stephenson is here lets go" Jasmine told and the girl turned and I froze. My eyes got stuck to her emerald green eyes. She is totally different now. More beautiful. 

Here is the girl standing infront of me--yes the girl who used to be my bestfriend, whose heart I broke, with whom I fell in love with and still now the only loved one of my life.

I couldn't keep my eyes off her. She looks perfect. She was staring at me. Actually we both were lost in our own world.

We kept staring but then the guy who was holding her pulled her by her waist and my anger popped out. How dare he touch my girl?But then I recalled she is not anymore mine. I calmed myself.

"Hey Aru.......How are you?"I asked.

Before she answers that guy said"Do you know each other?"

"Yes" and "No"we say simultaneously.

""its yes or no?"he asked.

"I know her but I think she forgot me"I said.

" Yea... I think I should be happy for this achievement for forgetting you"she said.

I can see that hatred in her eyes. I felt so guilty and heart broken.

I didn't say anything. Actually I don't know what to say.
