After four years ….. since Amelia had an accident with Elios . She was brought to hospital by Jason but little did she remember him saving her . After being successfully convinced that Jason had never cared for her , she decided to move on with her life .

The Continuation …

AMY

Needs . We all in this selfish world have needs which we want to satisfy so badly , right? Some have a need for love and some for money . On the other hand , Amelia Harper has a need to find a goddamn stable job .

Living off of your best friend doesn't seem to be living a good life , now does it ? I know it would be hard on me after graduating but I decided to stay in Boston . I just don't want to be another Beth to my parents .

"Amy , breakfast is ready !" Travis shouted from the kitchen .

That's right , I'm living with Travis . To be more particular , I'm leaving at Travis's home . He got a nice job as a piano instructor at Hardin University .

Awesome , I know right . Well good for him .

"Good morning ." I greeted him with a soft smile while sitting on the chair .

"Mmmh , you look very proficient." he smirked , sipping his juice .

"stop it." I rolled my eyes , taking the glass to my lips .

"stop what babygirl ?" he said in a way seductive tone , leaning closer to me .

"Here he goes again , people ." I said , pushing him away .

Well he is like that to begin with . I think this will keep on going until he finds a girlfriend . which I highly doubt that he ever will .

Anyways , we are not a thing . We are just friends and I guess we can never be more than that . Why? because he never seriously asked me out in four years and when I tried to it never went well with me.

For example , once we are out for dinner . I decided to ask him out that night . to be honest I was so prepared that it took me a week to decide what and how to say .

But at the very moment when I was about to say something .

He said "I don't get it why guys fall for girls who confess first , I mean look at that guy ." he pointed at someone behind our table .

I turned to see a girl on her knees with flowers in her hands , happily confessing her love .

" You see, those types of girls are usually just after money and things . I bet she had never even worked ." he said, eating his steak .

At that time I realised I don't have a job either . He would think the same of me for sure . I mean why won't he , right? So eventually , after many incidents like that I decided to give up .

Maybe after finding a good job and being successful , I would be able to ask him out .

"Yo ! Amy ? you there?" Travis swayed me out of my peculiar thoughts .

"Yeah . yeah" I looked at the time and started to check my bag .

"Listen , I have an interview today . So I gotta go ." I said rushing the things inside my bag .

"Where is that?" he asked, still on his chair .

"oh! at La Belleza Theatre." I replied checking my watch .

"What time would it end ?" he asked, effortlessly .

"God, you ask too many questions like my mom." I narrowed my eyes on him .

"What?" he whined .

"It will end pretty soon and the results will be out tomorrow , I guess . So bye , wish me luck . okay." I patted his cheek like a kid and rushed out .

"hey! come back here . I'm not a fucking kid , alright ." he shouted from behind . I chuckled .

Thank God I didn't miss my bus . I revised my resume on the way to Theatre . I just hope this goes well . I'm not quite sure though .

I reached the hall where I saw more than 30 people already waiting outside for the interview . Like wow . And here I thought I might have a chance .

"Amelia Harper ?" The lady called out my name and I raised my hand .

"You are next . Please go inside ." she told me, referring to the door .

I headed inside with overflowing nervousness . Taking a seat in front of three interviewers . I greeted them with whatever confidence was left in me .

"Everything else seems to be fine with you Miss.Harper . May we have the honour to hear one of the pieces , if you don't mind ." A lady asked me with a sweet voice .

"Yeah sure , why would I mind." I mumbled to myself taking the seat behind the piano .

I took a deep breath and played one of my favourite songs . I finished with a good smile . I just hope it went well . They clapped.

All three of them clapped . Not bad Amy .

"Well that explains your awards at University ." Same lady said with a polite smile .

"I guess that's all Miss.Harper . Hope to see you again ." She said , standing up shaking my hand .

Wait a minute I heard her correctly didn't I ? It means I could be selected , right?

I took off with a massive smile on my face . I think my cheeks would kill after this . Just as I walked out of lift I bumped into someone and her files scattered on the floor.

"God I'm so sorry , I didn't see you coming ." I apologised and quickly started helping her collect her things .

"Amy?" a familiar voice went through my ears . My hands stopped working . It felt like everything stopped for a moment .

The voice I haven't heard in four years . Suddenly surprised me from behind . I start to struggle with getting up . Fighting myself to not to turn around . Finally I gulped hard and with all the courage keeping my heart stable I turned to see nothing behind me .

"what the fuck?" I mumbled . I definitely heard Jason's voice . Or did I not ?

I started to hear things again . Fuck sake Amy get a grip now , will ya? He left you for good . Stop simping over him , he isn't here anymore . A sudden rush of pain in my heart went like hell . Remembering him just brings tears to my eyes . I don't even know when this is gonna stop .
