I was running after her, trying to catch her up speed. My breathing became so heavy. It's been a long time since I had chased someone like this. Apart from the fact that I was upset and feeling guilty for what ever happened just now, my head was blank completely.

We had already walked past the restaurant and came to the streets. Stella was like a rabbit when she ran. The broad streets were filled with crowd of cars and people. She stopped at the edge of the road. I took the advantage of this moment and tried to catch her but as soon she realised that I have almost reached her, she shifted her body.

I looked back at the road and a car was coming at that direction. Without having a second thought I jumped while running and grabbed Stella with my all strength. My whole body was warped around her, making it a shield for her. Both of our bodies dropped on the hard surface of road.

My body was shaking. Honestly I did not had any idea how much I was effected by this. My senses came back to me when I heard the sound of someone opening the car door. The person got out from his car and began to yell at us.

" For gods sake! pick someone else's car! Why did you had to come in my way! Fuck! I almost hit you two."

" ... I'm sorry for that." I tried to apologise but he just got inside his car and drove away from there. Thankfully I came at the right time and that guy also hit his break on the right moment.

Both of us got up and stood at the pavement beside the road. I didn't realised that Stella was crying since I hadn't seen her face. As I was holding her body firmly, I could hear her heartbeats which were very fast.

" I'm so sorry" she started to sob while talking " I shouldn't have walked away like that. You could have gotten hurt today." I was so upset to see her crying. It's the first time I'm seeing her like this.

" Hey! Hey! Don't cry. It's not your fault. Let's just sit and talk. Okay?" I wanted her to stop crying at that time. I can explain everything after that. In the mean time John drove off the car where we were. Although we didn't ran far, John thought it would be best to drive here.

" Theo what happened?" John asked me as he got out from the car. Stella raised her head finally and wiped off her tears.

" Mr. John give me the car keys." John looked at me with confusion but I told him to hand it over to her. Stella took the keys and grabbed my hand.

" Where are we going?" I asked her wondering what is happening.

" You will see." Stella took the driver's seat and I sat beside her. John was still standing there trying to understand the situation.

" You take care of the rest." After telling him that we left from there. Stella was driving the car like a manic. I didn't asked anything or made a sound since she was looking angry. Yes, the girl who was crying just a few moments ago, she is driving the car as if she is chasing someone. It took only ten minutes for us to reach the destination.

She parked the car and it looked like someone's home. I had no idea what was going on. We walked inside the house and to my surprise a certain person came out to see us. It was none other than Ray himself.

" What's up Stella? How come you are at my house?"

" Did you send Megan at Theo's company?" The question made me shocked and so did Ray.

" What!? Me? Why would I do that?" Ray replied confidently, in a casual tone. It was that time when Stella became serious. The room was echoed by the pitching sound of Stella's slap. Yes, she slapped Ray so hard that the room was echoing with that sound.

" What was that for?" She slapped him again. My mouth had shaped in a smile by that time I was holding my laughter.

" Okay fine. It was me."

" What!" I spat out in surprise. It was him ? So he told Megan to gain my attention and make me look bad in front of Stella. That bastard!

" Was is it who spiked his drink?" Huh! That incident? He's also connected to that ?

" No. how can I-" Stella slapped him again but this time she kept on slapping him. His cheeks were bruised.

" ..... Stop! Stop! ... It was me" I never thought that Ray was connected to the nightclub incident. He was the one who made my drink spiked. So all along it was him! I could never have imagined that.

" Why did you do that? I thought you were my friend!" With anger and rage Stella growled at Ray. She was a flaming hot fire.

" Why wouldn't I? Because I love you that's why!" Ray replied rubbing his cheek since they became swollen red after the intense slap season of Stella.

" Are you out of your mind? You tried to broke my marriage for this? You may love me but I love Theo."

" Huh?" I couldn't believe my ears. Those words kept on ringing in my ears but I thought she only said it for the sake of Ray. Deep down in my heart I really felt she meant those words.

" But why it had to be him? I was with you through out those years. And now you start to love a guy whom you know for few months." I stayed quite even though I wanted to say so much to him. I wanna slam his mouth shut.

" That doesn't concern you. I always looked at you as my best friend and even if you have confessed your feelings for me I would have never liked you."

" But why?"

" That's what I feel! I don't need any reason to love someone. Oh! And if you really want a reason, your dɨċk is smaller than him."

" Huh?" I don't know if I should be happy or sad knowing this. How come she ?

" Wait... when did you?.." Ray spook in surprise and disappointment.

" Remember, at Simon's party you got drunk and jumped into the pool nȧkėd."

" I did that?"

" Yes. I even have the video." Woah there! Why keep that video Stella? Didn't you just said mine is bigger than him?

" That's it? You seriously gonna reject me for that?"

" Shut up Ray! Get yourself a girlfriend and stop being a vɨrġɨn."

" I saved my vɨrġɨnɨtƴ for you! All this time I avoided being with other girls-"

" I don't want your crap. I won't forgive you. I never expected you to become a home wrecker. That day, when you came to my house to bitch on Theo I felt it was bit strange. But I forgave you for it. Even after that you send Megan to make problems in our relationship. Not only that, you were constantly trying to manipulate my thoughts by saying negative things on Theo. You should be happy knowing I am happy with someone else. You know, people says that, a male best friend of a girl is always a pain in the ȧss. Now I know it's true."

" Yeah! Luke said the same thing other day." Oops! I shouldn't have spoken in the middle of their argument.

" Goodbye Ray." Stella began to walk away to the entrance.

" Stella please listen to me-" I stood in front of Ray, gripping my fist and punching hard on his stomach. It was hard enough to make him choke and fall on the floor.

" This one is for making her cry." I glared at him and followed Stella to the car.
