It's not enough.
"Anna!!!!!" I was called.
No.
Don't look back.
Fast.
Few steps more.
Fast.
And, you will be out of here.
"Anna!!!!!" I heard him approaching.
And..... I stopped to look back.
"Are you ignoring me?" He reached me. And, he was panting.
Oh, God! What have I done?
"No... I just...." I tried to make an excuse but failed. I couldn't come up with anything because I am a bad liar. "I am a socially awkward person."
"Those people are introverts." Theo was still panting but managed to chuckle.
"I am sorry. That was rude." I was genuinely sorry for his condition. He is bending and trying to catch his breath.
"I knew..." He laughed at me. "The way you were walking away was funny."
"How did you recognize me? I was too far. I was on the other side of the street."
"The same way you recognize me."
"I am sorry. You shouldn't have followed me."
"Trust me." He stops and looks at me, like James looked at me when he saw Cherish for the first time. "I know what I am doing." He pronounced every word with an unreadable emotion.
This is another trauma for me. He is reminding me of James... Just, he is approachable and has a good aura around him.
"What are you doing here? Need a flower from my sister?" He fired two questions at one time, leaving me speechless with Revelation.
Trina Jacobson is Theo's sister. They are siblings. Now, I am noticing the similarities of the sibling. Trina has the feature of their father and Theo has their mother's feature. They look like siblings.
Because they are siblings.
"Trina is your sister?" I asked, despite being aware of the fact that she is his sister.

"I see... You are in the first name with her." His amazing grey eyes shine with a smile. He is so expressive. There is no feeling of uneasiness when it comes to expressing emotion. Life is easier with people like Theo. They are expressive, especially their eyes.
"Yes... She is..." I couldn't complete my statement. I was somewhat embarrassed once again. And, I look for a reason, I didn't find any reason. I don't know why, but it felt like we are bound to meet each other again and again. Maybe there is a purpose for us, meeting again and again.
"Anna...." We heard a voice coming out of the passing strangers. "Is my brother flirting with you?" Trina hugged me.
Trina Jacobson is the sweetest soul I have ever known. She didn't have any problems with me, being present in her husband's life, especially when I almost ruin their Sunday. Like she was waiting for me to join them. She has been with Norma like her second daughter.
Norma claims she found her another daughter. Daniel is so happy to see his wife like this. I am so happy... And the only person missing is Cherish, and my mind is filled with little questions about James.
"No, he is not flirting with me." Denying her statement, I forced a laugh.
"You are no fun." Theo joyful poked On my shoulder, which triggered my memory.
"Wife......wifey......." James poked me while calling me for his attention.
When I opened my eyes, I found him sitting on the couch working. He looks sober today. As handsome as well. Actually, he is handsome. His forest green eyes, black hair are those features any girl would want him.
"I see you are awake. WIFE." He didn't look at me and continued to work. "Open the drawer. I brought you 3 new pairs of spectacles."

I did what he told me and found 3 new pairs. They looked elegant and expensive. Immediately, I tried all the glasses, they all were perfect.
"You seriously can't see without them?" He closed his laptop.
"I can. Actually, it's for far sight. I was always a studious ......" I wanted to talk to him, but he took off his t-shirt.
I could see he worked hard in the gym. His body is the athletic type that he grew during his player days.
"You are still bleeding?" He came to me and I shook my head, telling him that I don't bleed anymore. "Words, WIFE?"
"No... I don't bleed anymore." I looked down at the hands-on my lap.
"You were a virgin." I heard him while unzipping his pants.
"It was painful." I tried to control my tears. I know what he is going to do. "Can we talk?"
"Be a good WIFE." He pulled the blanket and climbed on top of me. "Take off your underwear." He commanded.
"It hurts." I closed my eyes and cried. "I don't want to....."
"Wife... I am not asking you. I am telling you."
"I am telling you... She is not listening to us." Trina was poking me, but she was talking to someone else. "Anna?" Trina called me.
Looking at her, I frowned. Her nails are too sharp. It's hurting where she was poking me. I rubbed my upper forearm, displaying my pain.
"You zoned out," Theo explained while maintaining the distance between us, he checked my forearm. "Maybe it's because you suddenly realize your present atmosphere." He added when he was done.
"She flinched." Trina defended herself and moved closer to me to give space to the strangers walking by us.
"Memories," I mumbled, feeling bad for Trina, she must have worried about me.
"You can share if you want to." Theo offered, but I wasn't comfortable sharing any detail about my life. So, I politely declined the offer and Theo left, but he wanted to talk.
Trina and I planned the upcoming event. We were alone and needed extra help. We put the sign of help and soon, two university students approached us. Since it was the birthday party, which is a private function, and we were supposed to decorate the little area, we four were enough. Theo and George were ready to help.
As Trina worked more than me, I was guilty, so I took the little extra work but later the night, George invited himself and took the flower of bulletin that symbolises Good-nature away from me. He stated that I need to take care of Jamie as well as James. Unfortunately, I couldn't tell my best friend about my non-existing marriage. He still thinks everything about James was rumoured, and I am happy with James.
George still talks about the office of James.
"You didn't tell me about your daughter?" George asked me when he was almost leaving.
I panicked. How does he know about Cherish?
"I saw her... There is an event live broadcasting on TV." He explained.
"Her name is Cherish." I smiled at the memory of my beautiful daughter.
"She doesn't look like you."
"Because she looks like her aunt... Jessica."
"She has the famous Carter features, but she doesn't look like her aunt." He looked sceptical.
