Keira's POV

"You are still here?" Jack is standing at my door playing with his car keys,

"No, I'm the ghost of Keira" he is asking senseless question, he is seeing me and still he is asking that I'm here, of course I'm.. Wait I'm over reacting a bit but it's not my fault it's because of that.. Adams.

He was gone in the morning but my mind is still confused over it, I don't understand why he just left like that, although Erik assured me its because of some important work but even he didn't come back or I would have asked him about it.. But that'll be weird he work for him not for me,

I put all my things in my bag but Jack is still standing there,
"I must say if you are Keira's ghost then even your ghost is hot" he have an idiotic smirk over his face,

Here he is back with his flirty remarks, he is annoying, I shoot him an angry look, he showed his hands in surrender,

"I was thinking if you need a lift then I can drop you" he asked,

"Well thank you Jack but I can go you don't bother, Good night" I left the building, I don't want his help as I don't like his way of eyeing me up then licking his lips.

I enter my apartment I let out a sigh of relief, I'm tired, suddenly my nose found an delicious smell coming from kitchen, I get in kitchen, what I saw left me shocked,

"You are cooking? what's the matter?"

"I wanted.. to cook for ya, that's it" Betty said tasting the sauce she made maybe for pasta,

"When did you started lying to me" I made her to face me,

"Alright.. Alright I'll tell you, but first you go take a shower" she replied,

I nod and get in my room to take a hot shower, I really need it, after giving myself in hot refreshing water my half of confusion and worry seems like it have evaporated, I feels good..

I slip in my shorts and oversized T-shirt and came out of my room, Betty is already waiting for me, the food she made is waiting for us on table, I sat beside her, she is watching You on Netflix,

"Let's eat" she start to serve me,

She hand me the plate of spaghetti and meatballs, my mouth is full with water, I'm very hungry and the delicious smell is making me more hungry, but I shouldn't forget the fact that she cooks only when she is upset,

"So tell me now"

"You eat" she eat a mouth full obviously to avoid,

"If you won't tell then I won't eat" I put the plate back on table, I'm lying I'm dying to eat, and my stomach betrayed me with its growl,

Betty giggles at this "OK.. OK fine I'm telling you now eat it or I'm sure your stomach will be screaming"

I start to eat it again, hmm.. She made delicious food, it's amazing, sometimes I wonder that I should send her in MasterChef but then I'll have to fight to make her angry only then she'll cook like this,

"John and I broke up" she said and I stopped eating,

I really don't know what should I say "I'm sorry but why?"

"He have to leave this place and we were not good with each other recently.. I think he was bored of me and.. I from him" she sighs,

"Do you miss him now?" I know she feel bad,

"No"

What she don't well that explains they were together just for a couple of months, although it was the first time when her relationship have completed a month I even started to think that she found the guy for her,
