John's POV

It was a hectic day, when I completed my work it was past midnight. I was on my way to home, the streets were very dark without street lights. A little far, in a bus stop, I saw a gang of boys who were harassing a girl, she seemed to be a prey for them tonight. I rushed to go there and save that girl.

Even from far, the girl who was standing there seemed familiar to me, very close to my heart, but I don't exactly know who she is. As I was getting closer, I saw her face, it was her, Julin, whom I thought not to meet in my entire life again. Anger arose seeing her face, the  devil residing inside my soul, insisted me to kill her. I was confused whether to stop the bike and help her, or not. I was riding slowly in a confusion, something deep inside me told me to stop and save her.

So I parked my bike in front of them. Then she noticed me, she was crying and helpless. When she saw me she was shocked. Both of us didn't like to meet each other, it was obvious in our looks.

I shifted my look from her and noticed those rowdies, seeing me, they moved back as I went closer to them, I unbuttoned my shirt cuffs, folded my sleeves up, then in a fraction of a second, I gave a hard punch and knocked one of them down, his nose started to bleed, the rest of the boys came to attack me, I smashed all of them, some ran away. I got some bruise here and there, but it wasn't paining much.

The whole place was filled with silence. I don't know how to approach her, and she felt the same.

Ego stopped both of us and we were staring at each other. Without opening my mouth, my eyes asked her, how could she betray me like that, when I thought she was my world, and gave a look like she didn't deserve me. But her looks reflected the same, how can she look at me like that, What the hell is she thinking.

Even after three years her attitude didn't change, she is still that hardheaded Julin, off course she can never change, but that was the thing which attracted me years ago, for which I regret now.

I went and took my bike, and started it, I raked fingers through my hair, which was unruly and fixed it by seeing the mirror, I raised the accelerator, and waited for her, because it was not safe to leave her like that, does she realize that? What an egoistic girl, can't she come and sit? She expects me to call her? No way I can't do so.

She understood the situation, and came closer to me, and sat on the bike. I started the bike and we moved from there, I noticed her face in the side mirror, she was watching somewhere, she was looking hotter than before, she would have made many men to fall on her trap with her beauty. I broke the silence, by saying,

"I would have helped any girl in that situation, I didn't do it because it was you, so don't think that I still have something in my heart for you. I washed away all your thoughts from my mind."

"Ohhh wowww!! That's great!! And for your kind information, I too don't have anything for you in my thoughts, and I am very much happy with my new life."

What!!! My tempered raised, I controlled it, and didn't show up. She is the haughtiest girl, I have ever met in my life.

I was silent and drove in a high speed. Suddenly my phone rang, I stopped my bike on one side, and took my phone.

It was my old friend, who worked with me on a project when I was in London, I couldn't reject his call because he is important to me.

He calls me during night because it is day there, we spoke about our current life, about our current jobs, then we were talking about our work trip to London, which we went two years back, then he bade bye and cut the call.

It was a quick conversation. I had no time to explain him everything.

I was passing through her Street, all the old memories flashed in my mind, they were haunting me, as I got closer to her home, I thought each and every incident of the past.

I stopped my bike in front of her home, she got down, and says thanks, and went inside, I was staring at her, she didn't turn back, then I started my bike and drove to my home.

I refreshed myself, and I couldn't come out of the painful thoughts of my past, suddenly my phone rang, it was Jenny's landline number, I took the phone suddenly, seeing her call, I almost forgot all my worries.

Once we started our conversation, she told me that she missed me badly in those two weeks, I can't believe what I just heard, then she asked whether I missed her too.

Of course, I missed her a lot, I almost went mad in those two weeks without seeing her magnetic eyes, her attractive smile, without hearing our lovely voice, I missed each and everything of Jenny, it was not just two weeks, it was 14 days, that is 336 hours, that is 20,160 minutes, that is 1,209,600 seconds without her.

I don't want to tell her these things, I just wanted to tease her, which I love to do.

So I asked her, "Are you kidding me", and laughed so hard. I know she got irritated by that, and she told me to dream happily about my dream girl, not knowing that it was her, and she also added that I won't meet my dream girl in my entire life, hearing that I told her, I already met my dream girl, thinking about her, I also said that, I will introduce her to Jenny soon. I said so, because I was planning to propose her very soon.
