Chapter 53 - Chapter 52

JASON'S POV

'Wow' that was tough . She learned to speak her heart out . I know how much pain she held inside her all these years .

I want to make a clear end to her pain this time . whether it is with or without me . I guess we will find that out later . First , I need to let her know who the boss is and she can't talk with me casually at least in my fucking office .

If anyone hears us , it would cause problems for her .

So I decided to follow her and tell her some formalities , since she clearly can't quit the job now . Thank heavens I called Treena at the right moment and asked her to let her sign before meeting me .

I stepped out of my office . I looked up , and caught Amy and Treena eyeing me weirdly . Treena looked kinda shocked but I don't really know why though?

"What?" I asked her .

"huh? What?" She questioned back still with a shocked look . So I looked at Amy .

I motioned , asking her what's going on . She shakes her head , telling me she doesn't know .

"Miss Treena , are you alright?" I ask , out of concern .

"Uh yeah . NO I mean no , no there's no problem at all ." She seemed to be avoiding the conversation . "I'll just leave . I have things to do." She gave an awkward smile and left .

"Anyways , I think we need to clear some formalities ." I turned to Amy .

"What formalities?" she asked .

"First , you should know that I'm your boss and you can't just talk with me casually , at least not in front of my staff."

"Oh hello there! First I never agreed to work here ." She sarcasted .

"Yes darling you did and I have proof , right here." I gave her a tight smile .

"Why don't you just let me go . I don't want to see you . Please let me go . Leave me be ." she almost cried again . But she held back, biting her lips .

I could totally see her eyes red and puffy . I know she has been through a lot and given her personality . She probably didn't let it all out in front of anyone . She is the type to endure it all in front of people and then cry alone in the corner , silently .

"Amy .." I tried to brush the slight lone tear away from her cheek , but she turned her head around to avoid letting me touch her in any manner .

I sighed heavily . "Will you just let me explain for once?"

"No." She responded quickly , without thinking twice .

"But why?" I whined , I seriously can't believe how weak can become in front of her . I do not know to this date what she has done to me . Her bewitching abilities are quite far from my reach .

"Because Jason, I don't want to listen to your excuses . If you left me without a fucking reason then why are you now back with bunch of some crappy excuses? Jason people in love don't make excuses , what they make are efforts. Which you clearly didn't for me , but surely for someone ." She mentioned her point in a calm and low voice , as her tears kept getting the best out of her .

Damn it! Fuck Jason! You can't even make her smile for once . Just stop making her cry at least .

But the selfish self of mine doesn't want to let go of her . I want to follow that self at least for once .

Clicking heels. broke me out of my thoughts , distracting me from observing the beautiful girl standing in front of me , filled with torment caused by me .

Treena looked at us with distress all over her face .

"I.. I left my pen drive in the meeting room . I'll just go grab it quickly . Please continue ."

"Yeah , I was about to show Miss Harper her work place." I said , quickly grabbing Amy's hand and walking towards the lift .

"You think she heard us?" Amy whispered .

"Hell yeah . That's why I told you to stop talking to me casually ." I whispered back .

"Okay." She agreed in a cute little nod .

We went straight to the practice room where everyone was obviously slacking off until I got there .

"Hope you guys are doing a good job." I narrowed my eyes on them and they definitely knew what I was talking about .

"Anyways , meet Miss Amelia Harper , she is the new pianist here . She will be joining all of you starting tomorrow ." I announced .

"Hello Miss Amelia , I'm Erick . I play the violin . Welcome to our group . If you have any problems , feel free to share . By the way , you are very pretty." Erick winked at Amy , She smiled .

Their handshake was taking quite a long time . But fuck she was smiling at that jerk . We have been talking for like two hours . She didn't smile even for once and she smiled with him .

What the fuck ? This goddamn piece of shit!

"Okay that's enough , if she has any problems she can ask me directly . Everyone go back to work , Please ." I gave that dude a deadly look but he didn't seem to shake off even a little bit .

"Where are you going?" I asked Amy , as she started heading off in the other direction .

"Home." she replied . I stood there blankly , staring straight into her eyes .

"I'll come tomorrow." She said she still can figure out what I think .

"Okay." I replied, "Take care and don't cry too much , you'll ruin your pretty eyes ." I whispered, leaning closer .

She didn't say a word . Abruptly looking around she nodded and took off.

'How I wish I could have kissed her'
