It was already dark outside as the stars twinkle in the sky shining brightly, the moon light shone exalting itself on Elizabeth flawless skin.
...Elizabeth stood outside the hospital waiting for a cab when a car stopped at her front, the window rolled down as Maverick face showed, she looked at him with resentment in her eyes, walking away.
"Lizzy, please wait"he got out of the car and ran after her, she increased her steps but he still caught up to her and held her.
"Maverick,let go"she said but he didn't release her, she sighed heavily.
"Fyn, where should we go to?"she gave, knowing him,he won't talk in public neither would he give her an answer.
In a restaurant,
"And why should i help you?. Yes, she's my friend but i won't want her anywhere near you. Just yesterday, you forced her to come to a cafe and now you're acting all caring"she sneered.
"Have really changed,i love her so much. Now,i realise that all i've been was a jealous bastard and i wish to make it up to her. Please help me"he said helplessly but she didn't feel a ounce of pity for him, he deserves everything happening to him right now and even more after all the truamas her friend had to go through.
But her friend deserves happiness and joy"And how did you want me to believe that you've really changed. Because of you, she had many sleepless nights. You don't even deserve her love"he bowed his head in shame, she was right. He deserve to die,he doesn't deserve to be with her and live happily but he had really changed. He thought that all he did was because he loves her but it was because of his dumb ego that pushed him into doing the unthinkable,he really fucked up.
Seeing his pitiful face, she softened a little bit"I'll help you but God help me,i find out that you're maltreating her again. I won't think twice before killing you"she said.
"Thank you so much"he was really grateful to her,his soon-to-be wife was really lucky to have a friend who cares for her in this manner.
"So, what's the plan?"she asked him.
"Back then, she always said that she wanted to have a blue wedding in Los Angeles. So,on her birthday,am planning to suprise her but i don't want her to get suspicious and that's when you come in".
"You just want me to distract her only?"she asked him to be certain.
He rubbed the back of his nape"Actually,i also want you to convince her about me. Ask her if she would love to be with me"he looked at her.
"Fine,if that's all. i'll take my leave"she stood up, Maverick didn't try to stop her as an evil glint flashed in his eyes before disappearing,following her outside.

In Elizabeth apartment,
Elizabeth lied on her bed feeling worn out from today's stress, she felt bored so she decided to cook for herself, she was cooking noodles when someone knocked on her door. Wiping her hands, she went to see who was knocking.
"Jeff!, what are you doing here?"she asked suprised by his sudden visit.
"Don't you want me to be here?"he answered her with a question back.
"Sorry, come in"she left the way as he came inside. Scenting the aroma of the noodles,he looked at her with widened eyes.
"You're cooking?"he asked sitting on the couch while looking around the place.
"Yeah,i cooked enough for two people. Will you join me?"
"Of course, I will. It has been long since i tasted my baby food"she pouted going back to the kitchen to check what she's cooking.
"It's ready"the noodles was ready so she poured it in two plates, put it on a tray and went to serve it. Giving Jeffrey his own plate and sitting opposite him with her own plates.
"So how have you been doing since we left school?"she asked him while eating, she saw Jeff eyes getting red as tears started falling down.
"What's wrong Jeff?"
"Nothing"she stood up and went near him.
"Are you sure?"he nodded still slurping the noodles, not thinking much, she went back to her seat and finished her noodles. When she finally looked at Jeff, she noticed that his face was red when she looked like she just remembered something important.
