The Kidnapped Bride

"Because your parents won't allow you so easily to have you come here, in the central park!" Ryan was no less rude with his words.

The utmost uncivil and harsh behavior irked Amaira a lot. Managing her sentiments at this point, she wasn't as happy as she looked.

Her eyes weren't good to hide the emotions yet she held her chin high and didn't let her courage fade away so easily.

"I have grown up, Ryan. They can't put too many restrictions on me anymore. If I come to meet any man, I won't have chosen this place to disclose my identity." She answered in the simplest way and with a straight face.

Ryan was looking into her eyes keep with a mocking smile. For the very first time, Jennifer noticed his smile which was also not very appealing.

Probably because the smile was counted to be a threatening one in Amaira's direction

"Right. How idiotic of me to think that Mr. Shawn Johnsosn will let his daughter roam so freely around the central park with some unknown man…"

The words were enough to break her entire heart. It wasn't easy to gather all the broken pieces into one bowl and heal them. Amaira did the same thing a few years before but now what?

She was passing daggers in his position because how can she miss the past that he brought with his words? 

"Tha-"

"We should hurry back to the apartment Ms. Jennifer. As it is quite isolated it will take us some time to reach. If you don't mind.. we shall take the leave." 

At last, Jennifer was easily enjoying her shake but keeping her ears open to the conversation as well. When her name was called, Jennfier averted her eyes and looked at Ryan.

"Sure. Amaira.." turning in her direction, she passed her a wide and assured smile through her eyes, "Don't' worry. Think of what I said. If you need someone to discuss and talk to, you do know where to find me. Alright? see you soon, if it is written in our fate."

Jennifer remained polite towards Amaira and Amaira too just nodded her head.

At first, Jennifer passed by and Ryan, after taking a last glance at Amaira's face, followed Jennifer around, leaving Amaira all alone.

'But he is still.. sticking to our past and my family of mine.. Gosh… his comment was so rude but.. he is angry.' 

Her heart wasn't eased when she witnessed Ryan's back facing her and felt a sudden heartache in her deep heart.

Lowering her face while holding her tears and not letting them fall at any cost, otherwise, she will just break down here.

'But Jennifer was right. To love and live, I need to let go of my guilt...but was she seriously right?'

…

At the same time, Jennifer and Ryan made their way to the car where Ellen brought the car ready.

There was something that Ryan ordered but since they had to wait, Ryan returned with a shake with the thought that she should at least get a shake to drink. 

Since their order was completed, Ellen took a step out of the car and walked in the direction of the road to take the order which Ryan earlier placed, leaving both Jennifer and Ryan alone for some time.

While Ryan was sitting in the front seat, Jennifer was in the back.

She was curious to learn the talks between the two people beforehand. "Ryan, what is your age?" 

"Twenty-two. Why?" He doubted her reason for asking when she replied, "Just curious. Javier must be around twenty-five or twenty-six I guess."

"Yes. He is. I'm the youngest of all the three of us and the most experienced one…" He answered honestly and Jennifer shakes her hand.

"By The way, if you don't mind me asking, do you both know each other? I mean you and.. Amaira? Your talks seem to make me wonder.." Jennifer asked curiously, unknown how will he react?

Will, he burst in anger or simply find some...excuse? Other than that, just ignore her word sleek thin air! Jennifer was looking forward to hearing his reply when Ryan didn't say anything for almost one minute.

But later on did open his mouth, "A very old tale, Ms. Jennifer..Ms.Taylor. It is a love story which is not known to anyone."

"No even to Javier?" Jennifer asked for confirmation, "Not even to sir. You can expect no one in the entire state except the two people involved."

He wasn't direct in words that were confusing yet making her seriously think twice about the situation.

Ryan seems to be someone who is well educated and serious in his life. So is Amaira, someone who carries tensions all around the world.

The two of them... are quite similar but are they like this from the very start? Or circumstances..made then be the one?

"You mean to say that Amaira and you were… " 

"Please don't take my words as a rude comment but as you aren't aware of anything, please do not just assume too."

"The things were in the past and will always be in the past. Bringing them is not an option." 

Jennifer didn't wish to study in their relationship like that but she had no other choice as well.

How much Amaira was upset by the comment and his rudeness didn't go unnoticed by her. 

Moreover, what was the mistake of her little girl if she was Johnson? Just like Javier, she is born into a Mafia family. It wasn't their mistake in the first place.

"I understand your concern and trust me I have no intention to upset you. I simply asked you.. because I felt that the girl was upset obviously I don't know what happened between you two but.. she"

"She is a crazy teenager, too much believing in fairy tales so.. Please leave it Ms. Jennifer."
