Chapter 2 - Back in Life

Jess was back in town. After so many years he was back with a purpose I could tell. I was sure that no matter what the purspose had nothing to do with me. Because finally I was happy in my life. Taking everything into account my work, my books, my music, my corners and Ryder. For the first time, I felt that there is nothing which needs to be added to fill in the void. Everything was going great but then again Jess showed up on our doorstep.

Walking in without saying anything was exactly what he did. Glancing at the walls, at our pictures, Ryder's and mine he smiled with a face which was surely not the one which is even closely similar to the one when one's happy. "Boyfriend?" he asked. I stood there silently, did not utter a word. I could hear the clock ticking. He looked at me and I felt I am cheating on Ryder. The one and only person who made my life perfect or atleast I thought so.

"You need to leave, and yes there is no way we can talk about anything, ever" I said while trying to make some space for him to walk out. "Really?! You hate me that much. Or your sweet sweet love of your life thinks so. Is he the one who decides to whom you can talk to or not" he kept on saying it with such disgust. I could clearly see that something is going on but trust me I did not want to risk what I had with Ryder.
