My journey with an Endearing Stranger 20 Chapter 20

Though I was happy to see Helena after a very long time, I was little disappointed when she ran away from me. I don't know why she did that. She looked as if she was hiding something from me.

I saw the excitement in her eyes when she saw me in the meeting hall. But ,to my bad luck,it vanished soon.

She tried to keep her eyes out of me while the meeting was going on. I found the pain and sadness in her eyes. I'd like to know the reason behind that. Anyways, I wanted to talk to her and so I did it today. I felt my voice shivering while I was talking to her on phone. I had two reasons for that. One reason is that I was talking to her after a long gap. And the other one is that I had a lot of fear in me that

"Will she agree to meet me

tomorrow? "

" Finally, I'm going to meet her personally. I have to confess my love to Helena. "Come on Chase! You can do it!", I said it outside in a little excitement,thinking that there's no one around me.

But, shh! I was caught. This Jason..... listened everything. Oh man!

Jason began saying,

"Oh! Chase..... That's awesome. What a plan, man! This is going to rock. So,now go and make your preparations for tomorrow.All the best kid..."

" He's crazy", I laughed in myself.

At the very next minute,I heard Jason saying, "Chase! I've a small doubt.Can I ask you....!"

" Oh... Stop it , Jason! You don't have to ask me permission for everything. Just tell me what you want to say....", I said.

Then Jason said,

"You look too confident. How come you're very sure that Helena is interested in you?"

I smiled at him and started walking towards my wardrobe and took out a chart holder and gave it to Jason, asking him to open that. He gave me a confusing look and slowly started opening it. It's a large white sheet. After seeing that , he looked at me and began saying,

"Chase! I can't believe this. This is you .... right! Hmm! This is your sketch... !"

I then started saying,

" Yes! You're right,Jason. It's me.I've already told you that she's a good artist,right! Moreover, these are the designs made by Helena. I was literally shocked after seeing this at first.

After the meeting, I asked Mr.Harry, if I could get a copy of these sketches . Then he told me that they are with Helena and in about a few minutes,he brought them and gave me those. After reaching the hotel, I thought I should look at the designs again and send them to my dad. As soon as I opened them, I was stunned.

Jason! Designing is her passion. She'll never compromise in that matter. If she has treated me just like any other passenger, then she might have not included me in her designs. This is making me feel that she's interested in me.

Then Jason added,

"Got it,man! This means that Helena had a special place for you . May be she too loves you!....."

I wish this should happen. I'd be the most happiest person if I get such a reply from her after proposing.Then, I safely kept those sketches inside .

Jason then wished me good luck. While he was about to leave, I said him to stop and gave him a file having the details about the next project with

XXX company. He felt excited that he's going to meet Helena. I know this before. I also asked him to get some designs already made by her if possible. He said ok and left the place.

Helena's POV:

I leaned on my couch and opened the letter I've written for Chase earlier. Every word in that came out of my heart. I automatically got a smile while reading the letter. Every incident with him is flashing in my mind. The first day I met him will be the most happiest moment. I can call it love at first sight. I don't know how he felt,but I felt like butterflies flying in my stomach. I questioned myself many times,

" How could a stranger create such an impact on a person like me?"

I've not got the answer yet. I don't know the reason,but I think he's born special just for me. I remembered how I used to think of him at home..... ,in the office.... everywhere. Even my mom understood all my thoughts for him.

After that day of our first meeting in the local train, that entire place became very special to me. The boring journey turned exciting. I remembered how I crossed my fingers and wished to meet him again and again in the beginning. All the dreaming nights gave me refreshment instead of tiredness. I know how I used to wait for him everyday in the station, before the train time, because if I come late , I may miss him.

Coming to his magical eyes, they'll just play with mine so easily and makes me get addicted to him. Another weakness for me is his voice. Whenever I listen to his voice, I'll be like ,want to listen to him more and more. He's the one ,after my best friend Julie,with whom I shared many secrets and told all about me. Being an

introvert, I never did this before.

My journey with my stranger looks like a movie.....haha....

After a pause, I started thinking if I was doing something wrong. I know it's not manners to think about someone else's boyfriend. But,.....

Suddenly, I heard the door bell ringing. Very quickly, I moved out of my couch and ran here and there feeling confused who it was outside. I then moved towards the door and opened it slowly.

It's Mr. Jason. I saw him in the meeting today. And moreover, I thought he was the CEO of YYY company at first. I heard about him. Mr. Harry told me that he's one of the partners in YYY company and he takes care of their branch in New York city.I then asked him to come in.

He slowly walked into the hall.

"Oh shit! I left the letter on my couch. What the hell!", I got this in my mind.

I ran into the hall before Mr. Jason entered and took the letter on the couch and searched everywhere for a place to keep it safely. When he was about to enter , I kept the letter in a bundle of papers on the table beside the couch.

"Uff! Safe man!....."
