(The song in the above media is for Aaron Abigail moment in this chapter)

     Aaron's thoughts were occupied with just one girl, this particular girl never leaves his mind, his conversations may start with anything, however, they always end with her. After a long time somebody was able to captivate his heart, he for once wanted to settle. A thought that never occurred to him was finding his way inside his mind just because of a single girl. 

Abigail Haydon!

Aaron Silverton's birthday is the most hyped thing for everyone in the group. Every year on his birthday he party's with his friends as recklessly as possible, spends all his time with them as if there is no tomorrow. 

But this year he celebrated his birthday in an ordinary way, he has never celebrated this way ever before. He met Ashton and Natalia at the airport itself, later he had lunch with his father of course accompanied by Harriet and Shane.

The past incidents taught them to be mature and prepared that life could change in a split second and you won't realize how drastically everything will turn upside down. The squad is no longer together without any goodbyes or words spoken they all have come to terms of parting ways. Allen didn't wish Aaron, there was no phone call from his end. Allison took the initiative called him, chatted with him and even wished on Allen's behalf as well. 

Nothing was spoken between them as if the emptiness spoke loud and clear nothing was left between them. They all have separated ways for the better.

March called him as well, she was on a business tour with her company period, couldn't spend time with him on his birthday and Austin did his best to call him, text him but Aaron blocked him everywhere. He did his best to get to his best friend but Aaron doesn't want to talk to him at all. 

On the other end his mind still played a thought all along, does she not know it's his birthday today? There were no phone calls or texts from her either. At least a birthday wish wouldn't have killed her. He thought

"Back to earth Aar" Jayden hissed. He's been observing his son from the moment they met, it was written all over his face: he was disturbed.

Physically he was with him but mentally he was somewhere else. Aaron isn't the type of guy who would have rash decisions and regret all his life, he may come-out like an obnoxious dick and look like a careless person but he is the most caring one after Allen in the group. 

"What?" He asked

"Something is bothering you" Jayden stated he knew him too well, denial was a waste of time. 

It was written all over Aaron's face that he misses her, so badly that he wants to go back to Italy just to get his peace of mind back. "I don't know" 

"It's about Abigail" Jayden spoke, Aaron stared at his father and heaved. It indeed was true "You know she said you don't have any charms" 

"She says that on my face" Aaron chuckled so did Jayden

"The girl has some nerves" Jayden whispered no wonder Aaron nodded in agreement to his father "Tell me" 

Aaron looked at his dad and spoke "I don't know. I keep thinking of her, the more she denies the more I want her" his voice held exhausting, with himself and her thoughts too

"So all you want is Abigail, once you have her is it over?" Jayden asked, amused to see his son in such a pathetic state

"Maybe" Aaron mumbled, throwing his head in his hands, he just wanted to punch the life out of his mind "All I do is keep thinking about her. I like seeing her smile, she is the prettiest when she smiles. She is sick but she won't let me take care of her. All she does is push me away from her"
