The Scar you gave me

"A girlfriend who's not around??? And as for you you're the reason why other girls can't approach him so stop hovering around him and set him free" Natalia said

"Set him free? I haven't caged him"

"You have, I heard about what happened to you in the past and how since then you've clinched on to him, he is not the reason for your problems so let him go, stop being a burden to him" Natalia said and Aileen was quiet

They came out of the washroom and the food was set up, Julius asked her to sit and fed her

Natalia was so angry

"You should also eat, here's the coffee" Natalia said and tried to give him a cup but Aileen stopped her

"What's wrong with you?" Natalia said

"He doesn't like cream in his coffee"

"Haha what are you trying to show off, I serve him this coffee when you're not around"

"And have you seen him drink, especially in the morning?, I am not trying to show off anything I just know him better than you"

"What!!

"Enough Natalia, she's right I never complained about it because it was never your duty to be serving me coffee" Julius said

"You! Why have you been quiet?" He asked Aileen

"Julius am I a burden to you?"

"Who said??"

"Someone"

"Someone is just a nobody, you're never a burden and if you're then you're the sweetest burden I will carry in every lifetime of mine"

She smile

"You always have the right word and my heart has started warming up to it" Aileen thought

"Hey don't listen to people, they're just jealous of our relationship"

"Yes they're" Aileen said looking at Natalia and she got out angry

"Many girls like her will try to take you away from me and I am scared I don't know why but I can't lose you" Aileen thought and hugged him

"Hey what's wrong?"

"Nothing" she said

She went home and told sel everything

"Uhm Aileen I am sorry but do you like Julia?"

"I do like him"

"Not as a friend but as a man, please don't be mad"

She was quiet

"No I am not mad, I can't lose Julius sel"

"Oh my gosh what should I do with you? Julius has a girlfriend and my sister seems to have fallen in love with him" sel thought

A week came and the project was to commence

They introduced them to the staffs, Aileen was not around she was out with Julius

"I think I have waited enough, I have to tell her maybe I have a chance. I can't hide it anymore. I love you" Julius said to someone on the phone

Then next day

"I want to have a special dinner with you, tomorrow will you come?" Julius asked Aileen

"Yes but what's the occasion?"

"I will tell you when you come, it's going to change our lives forever" he smiled

He made all the arrangements, and sent clothes to her

"He arranged a dinner for you two" sel asked

"Yes"

"What for?"

"I don't know and I don't care either, I just want to be with him"

"Wait Aileen, who's Julius to you?"

"Such a silly question you know he's my best friend"

"Only best friend???"

"Yes what else?"

"Nothing" sel said and left her to dress

"My sister is in love and doesn't even realize, Julius got what he wanted he took her mind and heart off Rìan but then it moved towards him and he has a girlfriend" sel was confused

Aileen was all ready to go she called him and told him she was on her way, he waited for her but then he started feeling anxious

"Why do I feel everything is going to get ruined" Julius said

He received a call from Aileen she had to rush to the hospital for an emergency

"Is ok I can tell her another time but then why do I feel if I miss this opportunity I am never going to get it again" he said on phone

"You're right if she can't come here, I will go there. Thank you I love you" he said and went to the hospital and waited for her

She came out of the emergency room, changed and came to meet him

"I am sorry our dinner got ruined"

He just looked at her, got closer and caressed her face
