He was very much sure about the certainty that no man would be more powerful than him to snatch his Veronica from him… 

Except three persons who were Neil, Henry and Louis...

He had already searched about them and found out that both Neil and Henry were like her own brothers whereas Louis was her boss come one of her best friend as they had studied together in the same college and university..

About Reuben.. 

Well, he never thought him as a competition because everyone including him knew that both Reuben and Veronica loathed each other so much that they really tried hard to stop puking at each other while seeing their faces..

But truth was something else which was not at all expected by anyone.

It was like the reality hit him really hard..

He never thought that anyone.. literally anyone other than Reuben could be her boyfriend.

But then he saw the love in both of their eyes specially Reuben's expression which was the gentlest and most softest when he looked at Veronica..

He never knew that now he had to compete with his own business partner over Veronica and inside of his heart, he was slowly losing the courage and confidence to fight back with Reuben..

Pushing all the thoughts away for few minutes, he got fresh and went for dinner where he saw his sister Myra was already waiting for him in the dining table.

Myra saw him coming and poured water for him in the glass and both of them started eating. Myra noticed that Alonzo was not eating properly and his expression was totally stiff and no emotions were seen in his face.

Though Alonzo was expressionless and cold most of the time, but with her, he was not the same as he would became all caring and loving..

"Bro.. are you okay? I have been noticing you from yesterday but your behaviour seems to be quite different and upsetting. What happened bro? Was there any problems in the meeting?" Myra asked getting worried over her brother.

Alonzo stared up at his sister and said, "No problem with the meeting Myra. It's just another thing that is bothering me."

Myra got confused and asked, "What is it bro? Tell me. Maybe I can help you some way."

Pondering for some while, Alonzo finally decided to tell the truth to his sister, "You remember Myra… I told you about a girl with whom I had fallen in love five and half years ago?"

Nodding her hard, Myra instantly replied, "Yes. I remember about her. But why are you asking this right now?"

"Actually.. you know the girl very well." When Myra made a confused face Alonzo added, "It's Veronica Lopez. Your new friend in city S."

"What!!!!!" Myra thumped her spoon that she was holding on her plate and screamed beyond belief.

"Veronica was the one whom you loved and who left you all shattered? How.. how could be all this possible? She is so sweet and lovely." Myra asked.

Alonzo pursed his lips and said, "Yes. You are right that she is lovely. And there seemed to be some misunderstandings between us.

The letter she left for me before leaving city B was all fake because it was not her handwriting which I came to know few days ago. She really didn't leave me by cuckolding me."

Myra was shocked but later her lips lifted up into a beautiful smile as she exclaimed happily, "Oh bro.!! That's so good then. If Veronica hadn't done anything wrong then that's mean you can be with her again. You know what, after coming here, I always felt that it would be the best if she becomes my sister-in-law. And now you are telling me that she is the one who captured your heart in the past.."

Alonzo was shocked when he heard her sister's wish to make Veronica her sister-in-law but he smiled at her before saying, "I'm happy that you like her so much. But there is a problem in this. Actually..

Veronica is already in a relationship with someone else and her boyfriend is more powerful than me. So I'm not sure if I would be able to fight for her."

Slapping her forehead, Myra chided, "So what bro? That doesn't mean if her boyfriend is more powerful or wealthier than you or not.. The thing that matters the most is that you love her. So brother don't step back and go, get your girl." She cheered him up.

Sighing deeply, Alonzo nodded and said, "Let me think over this for some time."

"Take your own time bro. But never compromise with your love. Like I did before." Myra said the last sentence almost in whisper so that only she could hear as a single tear drop escaped from her eyes.

Love-Paradise..

The couple thought to sleep after having dinner but suddenly Veronica's all sleep went haywire, which resulted them to now sit in their balcony, drinking coffee while seeking comfort in each other's arms. 

As they had already finished their dinner after a full hectic day with lots of fracas, so they thought to calm themselves by spending some lone time together with the all time best friend of 'mood changing' drink, Coffee..

"Honey…" Veronica called.

"Hmm??" Reuben hummed while running his fingers in her hair.

"When are we going to disclose about our relationship?" Veronica asked.

Reuben moved her face down to see her face and replied before kissing her temple, "If you want, I can confirm our relationship tomorrow itself."

"Really? Will you? By the way, I really don't have any problem. The sooner… the better.." Veronica exclaimed happily.

Chuckling at her overexcited act, Reuben ruffled her hair and said, "Okay. Then tomorrow it is. I'll post about us in my social media account."

Veronica smiled brightly and replied, "Then I'll also confirm about us after you are done with your posting."

"Deal.." Reuben made a fist and forwarded it to her grinning.

Veronica giggled and fist-boomed with him before shouting in joy, "Deal…"

And both of them sealed their new promise for their upcoming journey with a very passionate kiss..
