I made some friends and I got on well with my team from back home there was Jared who asked me out one day but after I told him that I wasn't interested we became really good friends.After the phone incident I started to have nightmares and my mood changed, I was grumpy and very off handed with my staff until Jared pulled me aside and asked me what was troubling me. I told Jared the whole story. He held in his arms while I cried telling him. After I calmed down and pulled myself back together.
" Jasmine you are beautiful, gorgeous sexy, intelligent you are in charge of a very multi billion doller project our boss chose you to manage this project so don't let Grant have power over you. He obviously has issues with himself and that is why he was picking on you.and Alex well by what you are telling me it seems she was jealous by the attention you were getting, she wanted it to be about her but it didn't matter how much she tried every Sunday it always was the same Grant insulting you and it all went about comforting you not about how beautiful the table setting was or how delicious the food was or Alex you really out did yourself it was an amazing lunch." said Jared.
After that I realized that his right I easily played the victim part when I could of stood up for myself and how can I blame Alex when I was such a bad friend to not see her situation.
" Oh Jared thank you. You have helped me see that I need to stand up for myself and not roll over and allow people to walk all over me."
After my chat with Jared my mood improved and even the way I thought of myself. I no longer gave Grant the power over me. My nightmares stopped and I even started to go on a few dates. The building project was coming along nicely, everything was falling into place and I couldn't be more happier than I was.
There was times when I would think of Alex. I did send her a message after my talk with Jared. Telling her that maybe we all need some space to figure everything out and that I am sorry also for leaving the way I did and that when I get back for my leave we can sit down and talk and that I still love her and I miss her.
She replied, "Your forgiven and I can't wait to see you and here all about your adventures you always wanted to go to Turkey, I hope it is everything you dreamed it would be, I love you to.
Six months later.
I was doing some shopping, as I was going around the corner I bumped into someone my shopping bags went flying." sorry, I am so sorry. " I kept apologizing while trying to retrieve my bags." No! It's my fault I am really sorry." said the most beautiful voice I have ever heard. The last time I heard this voice he was defending me as usual.
It was like time stood still when I looked up and there in front of me was none other than.
Graham!
God he look good.
When he looked at me and said, "Jasmine! he smiles that smile that makes my knees go week and says little one what are you doing here, I was wondering what happened to you?
He picks me up in into a bear hug.I hugged him back, holding him tight and taking his amazing sent in God I missed this man like crazy I cant believe he is in front of me I tighten my hug to make sure that he is really here. Once he puts me down. "Graham it is so good to see you I really missed you, What brings you to Turkey?", I asked.
" I'm here on business we're merging with a company here in Turkey so I'm here to handle it but enough about work I was on my way to go an eat please join me than we can catch up", said Graham.
