Layla got busy in serving few customers their drinks and Jim was busy preparing the drinks.
Steve was playing with Teddy and I was looking through the documents which Simon gave me in pen drive.
Suddenly a mobile's ringtone started ringing which was similar to mine. I unconsciously picked up the call.
"Hello?" I said.
"Hello." The caller said at the same time as me.
I looked at the phone and realized that the phone isn't mine.
"Hey Jim, your call." I called out to Jimmy and gave him his mobile back.
"Hello?" Jim said.
Suddenly he took the phone out of his ear. Seems like he is getting a shouting from the person.
"H-Hey I am sorry buddy but.." Jim tried to say something but again stretched the phone away from his ear.
I raised my brows and gazed at Jim he signaled saying no its nothing.
I didn't listen to him though, instantly I snatched the phone and said,
"What's the problem with you huh!? Don't you have any manners to talk properly with someone!?" I shouted loudly. Everyone's eyes were on me.
"Cerina..is this really you..?" the person said..I soon recognized the voice..it was Matt..
I dropped the phone on the bar table, I instantly packed my laptop and said,
"Switch of your phone when you are working Jim." I said anxiously. He stared at me and picked up his mobile.
"Keys." I said to Layla.
She threw me one key and I left from the Lounge leaving Steve behind with Teddy.
I drove Layla's motorcycle from there.

"Hello?" A woman's voice came through the call. I called Jim..was the call diverted?
"Hey, Jim your call." The woman said.
Wait this voice...
"Jim?" I asked and he said, "Hello."
"Who was that woman? What the fuck!! I think I heard Cerina's voice!? WHAT ARE YOU HIDING FROM ME!!!?" I screamed in rage.
Ryan was just beside me, he patted my shoulder to make me calm down and Hans also shook his head as if saying don't behave like this.
"Tell me Jim why are you silent!?" I shouted again.
"H-Hey I am sorry buddy but.." Jim tried to say something but..
Suddenly the woman's voice came through the call again.
""What's the problem with you huh!? Don't you have any manners to talk properly with someone!?" she shouted and by now I was sure it was Cerina.
I nodded to Ryan and Hans telling them it was really Cerina.
"Cerina..is this really you..?" I asked while stuttering..tears threatened me to escape from my eyes.
Suddenly I heard a light bang as if the phone was dropped.
"Switch of your phone when you are working Jim." Cerina said.
She continued, "Keys."
"H-Hello..? Cerina!!? W-Wait!!" I shouted and Jim cleared his throat.
"She left." Jim said with a disappointed tone.
Fuck! In rage I threw the mobile shattering it in countless pieces.
I held my head in rage and tears escaped my eyes in sorrow..
When will I ever have this chance to reunite with her!!? Why is god being this cruel to us!?
Why is our destiny not binding us together!? Is it not possible in this life...? Then I don't want to live this life!
All the thoughts were rushing in my mind and I just sat still there uselessly not being able to reach my love..

I raced through the busy roads of the city and all big buildings..this weird pain in my heart is so painful!
Why can't I forget him!!! It has been so many months for god sake!
I reached a riverbank and parked the motorcycle.
I didn't even realize when these tears started flowing on my cheeks..
I took my helmet off from my head and sat on green soft grass gazing at the river and bridge at distance.
All the memories started gushing making me shiver.
I tried my best not to remember but still I am not able to control my emotions..
I wiped the tears on my cheeks but in vain..more tears reached the corner of eyes.
I looked up at the dark sky..many stars were shining brightly making me gaze at them with all my concentration...
I started humming a song,
"The strain of time tore us apart.
It's not what we want, but it's where we are.
You can get addicted to a certain kind of sadness.
Until it happens to you, you won't know how it feels.
Maybe the wolf was in love with the moon and each month they cried out for a love it would never touch.
I don't even remember why I'm wasting all these tears on you.
I pretend I'm not hurt, I walk about the world like I'm having fun.
What do you do when your heart's in pain...?"
I sighed. Maybe this is not a song, these are words hidden in the corner of my heart...
