Isa searched on her phone about something for a while, whereas Jacob started reading the papers. Suddenly something occured in her mind and she looked up towards the boy.
"Heyy! Jacob! You look just like your dad!"
Jacob looked up, stunned at Isa's words. "Yes." He replied plainly, not wanting to talk about it any further.
"Infact, in this picture, his built and his height also looks same as yours." Isa turned her phone and saw a picture of his father at an award show, addressing the crowd.
"I know that Isa. Can we not talk about all this, right now?" Jacob pressed his eyes, with his palms, trying to concentrate back on what he was reading.
"I have an idea! If you don't like it, you can simply tell me and we will not talk about it any further!" Isa pursed her lips, looking at the serious boy. Her heart was racing rapidly, scared of hurting the boy. She knew that Jacob was currently in a very sensitive spot of life. If their is one more jolt to his feelings, he will easily revert back to his suicidal tendencies.
"What idea?" Jacob looked at the girl in confusion.
"Ummm....I was... was...saying..t...th...." Isa closed her eyes, trying to gather the courage.
"It's ok! I know you are scared. Don't worry! I am currently in a happy mood!" Jacob smiled pleasantly at the girl.
Isa smiled back taking a deap breath. "Ohk! I ...was saying that....that....instead of you buying a new suit...ummm...why do not you wear something from your father's closet. It will fit you perfectly."
Jacob looked at the girl in surprise. He was suddenly transported to the moment he was smelling his father's gown, just to feel his presence. " My fathers suit?"
"Ummm! Yes! That way you will have his support and presence with you all the time. It will boost up your confidence multifolds!" Isa pursed her lips, looking at the boy's blank face. She was getting more and more nervous at his non-expressive face.
At times no reaction is worse than giving a bad reaction. That is what Isa was getting, currently. "Huh?! Hehe! It's ok! It was just an idea. We can drop the idea and continue to read ag...
"Ok! I will do it!" The boy suddenly, interrupted her scentence, with still a blank look on his face.
