Falling In Love : I Love You, Today And Forever Chapter 162
Advertisement
Ivy got up as usual that day. She had to go to meet Max and the others. How long could she evade Tim if he was hell bound on following her? The only thing she could do was to disguise herself and since Aria had not taken the car, she could use it instead of her motorbike. The team had to come up with plans for their agency as well as they had to find people who would be interested in joining them.
Ivy looked at herself in the mirror with her dressing table filled with a lot of items useful for disguising herself. She could not disguise as another woman as chances of Tim recognizing her was more. So, she picked a beard and a mustache. She had already tied her hair in a tight bun, all she had to do was adjust her wig and baam, Ivy was gone. In her place was a handsome young man who could charm young girls at just one look.
Ivy adjusted her shirt to look more elegant. Satisfied with her look, she looked at her watch. It was time for her to leave. She picked up her keys and went to the basement. As soon as she left the apartment, she saw Tim in his usual spot waiting for her. She cursed him under her breath. "Crap. This man has no better work to do. Am I that pretty that he is stalking me like an obsessed lover? I hope that's not the case."
Tim had no idea that Ivy had left right in front of him in the car that just passed by him. He continued to keep an eye on the building waiting for Ivy to step out. The previous day, he had not kept an eye on anyone he had some urgent work to finish. Later, he had seen Max and the others on the Food Street having a good time. He only saw the four of them, Ivy was missing. He noticed them looking around the area, probably trying to find a restaurant.

Tim had followed them all the way when, to his horror, they had suddenly turned back and he had been busted. They had seen him. Not knowing what to do, he had gone to them. "Hello, guys. Are you here to have fun?"
"No, we are here to buy restaurants." Cedric had taunted him the next second making it awkward for Tim to continue speaking.
"We are here to eat. What about you?" Max answered for him.
"Me too. Since you guys left the office, it has become dull and boring. I miss you people a lot. By the way, where is Ivy? Is she not here?" Tim looked behind them to see if Ivy was somewhere in the area.
Nobody said a thing about him missing them. They knew it was not true. He was not the one to miss him when it was because of him they had lost their jobs. "Ivy is at home," Kira replied followed by a smile.
Tim was unsure, but he felt that the smile was not as friendly as it looked. In fact, he could detect the hostility from the group. 'Did they know I was following them. No, that's not possible. Maybe, it's the sadness and anger from getting sacked.' He concluded.
"Did she not join you?"
"No, she has some other important stuff to attend to."
"Since you guys are here to eat as well, may I join you? I don't want to be alone and we could have fun like we used to." Tim suggested. He had his reasons for doing so. He wanted to find out if the group was up to something now that they had a lot of time on their hands.
"Sure." Max agreed and the other three people's heads had snapped to look at him. Getting a warning glance from him, they had reluctantly agreed with the idea. They had gone to eat pizzas and pasta as Sasha had suggested.

However, nothing as Tim had expected had happened. They had not spoken a word that could be of any use to him. All they discussed was about the new movies in the theaters as well as some good songs. At one moment, an argument ensued between Sasha and Cedric to see whose acting was the best while playing Batman, Ben Affleck, or Christian Bale.
Noticing that the situation was not in his favor, he initiated the conversation. "What are you guys up to now that you do not have a job?"
The group fell silent at once. This was a question they had been waiting for him to ask.
"Right now, I am going to relax for a bit. Not everybody is lucky to get such an opportunity and to be honest, I am a little tired. So, I am going to take a break for a month or two." Kira voiced out as she glanced at Tim.
"That's good. Some times it's good to take time for oneself." Tim believed her completely for her relief. "What about the others?"
"My parents want me to give them a visit. Maybe I could go and stay at their place for a few days." Sasha was the next one to answer. Tim had no idea that the team had already prepared their answers for this question long back.
"That's cool. What about Ced and Max?"
Hearing Tim address him as Ced, Cedric had the urge to punch him in the face. They were not even that close for crying out loud. But he controlled himself. "I am looking for a job. I don't know when we will be called back. I am not sure if I can wait that long."
Max immediately agreed with Ced. "Yes, I agree with him. We cannot sit idle for long. So, it's best we start searching for new jobs."
The group conversed for a long time as they eat their pizzas while Tim gave a satisfied look. He had got what he wanted and the only person left was Ivy. He had to find out what she was up to. So, the next day he had resumed his work. However, he had no idea that Ivy was two steps ahead of him. She had tricked him again and he no idea about it. The poor guy waited the entire day, but he did not even a glimpse of her.
