The drive was quiet. Amelia was lost in our own thoughts. Her mind still not able to accept the fact that she has accepted his offer of help. Samantha looked very pleased and she hugged her as soon as she sat on the car, happily patting her back for the wise decision she had taken. Zach eyed her from the rear view mirror. Her deep brown eyes looked dreamy and there was a hint of sadness in them. Feeling responsible for most parts of it, he vowed to help her overcome her grief and give her a healthy and happy environment.
Amelia realized that they are not driving towards the town, but away from it. Her eyes forming a question met his gaze in the rear view mirror. Feeling awkward, Both tried to look away.
"Where are we going,?" Amelia echoed
"To Harrogate. That is where I stay," Zach simply answered.
"Oh, Lovely. I heard the place is beautiful," Samantha chimed in.
"Of course, it is." Zach smiled.
"I thought we will be leaving here...," Amelia voiced her confusion. Zach turned his face around, smiled still her and said,"I did tell you that I live in Harrogate and I was here to meet a friend."
Amelia gave a nod and drifted her eyes outside the windows of his car, enjoying the breeze as they drove away towards the airport.
The flight to Harrogate is cozy and pleasant. The three of them were taking naps as the plane flew in the clouded sky, flowing to Harrogate. They were all tired for their own reasons.
Zach opened his eyes and turned to face Amelia and he felt a tingling feeling in his heart, watching her sleep so peacefully, resting her head inclined on the seat and her hands were on her tummy as if she was making sure her baby was safe. He felt something he never had felt before. His motives to help her is pure and clear but deep down he knows it's for him as well for her. Somehow, he feels his life has become more worthwhile after she agreed to accept his offer of help.
For a brief moment, while looking at her he had the urge to move the layer of hair away from her face. It looked beautiful that way, but it was disturbing her sleep as it lightly touched her face. He didn't want her to be awake. He wanted to watch her and keep on watching her, but he shrugged his broad shoulders, joining his hands together. He darn do that.
Samantha awoke, was watching him with affectionate eyes and smiled. A peaceful expression formed on her face as he caught her looking at him. He was embarrassed.
"You really admire her, don't you?," Samantha'query made him uncomfortable and he didn't know what to say. To accept or deny. Can he trust Samantha with his little secret? He has a feeling he can but he better not make it own. He must not even think or let him flow away, hoping for something that might never happen. He reasoned to himself.
"Don't you?,'" He questioned giving a funny look on her.
"It's hard not to like her, not because she is beautiful, but because of everything she is as a person," Samantha said approvingly.
Zach's smiles deepened as he watched Amelia appreciatively, "I do not know as much as you, but from what little I know about her by now I’d say, yes, I admire her a lot," He accepted. "She is a remarkably a strong and determined woman."
"She is," Samantha said quietly remembering all that Amelia had to face, but now seeing the positive change in her life, she is certain Amelia will learn to love life again and will find her true happiness soon. She thanked god for giving Amelia this baby, for if it wasn't for this baby, Amelia's life would have been the same torture as it had been. With this baby, almighty has given her a second chance to live a second chance to be happy again and maybe a second chance at love too, she thought and smiled as she watched Zach and Amelia.
