Cindy decided to knock on the door and find out the truth. She realized the door was open just before she knocked. Jack had actually closed the door when he entered the house but Maya had quickly opened it when he went to the kitchen to get the cup for her.Cindy pushed open the door and went inside. The first thing that caught her eyes was the rope that hung from the ceiling. She ignored it and looked at the couple in each other's arms.She opened her eyes in shock when she saw that it was Jack and Maya. Jack raised his head almost immediately and saw Cindy standing by the door with tears falling from her eyes. He jumped up immediately and tried to reach her but Cindy closed the door and walked away.When Cindy had closed the door, Maya exclaimed, "oh my God! Was that Cindy? But how did she know you were here? Was she following you around. I'm afraid now she will draw the wrong conclusions.Jack ignored Maya completely. He looked around for his phone and picked it up, ran to the mac
Jack refused to let go of the door and said, "go ahead and scream Cindy. Let them all come, perhaps, they will help me in convincing you to hear what I want to say."Seeing that Jack wasn't going to back down, Cindy left the door and ran inside the house. Jack went inside as well and locked the door but before he could get to Cindy, she ran into her bedroom and locked herself inside.Jack began to bang on the door relentlessly. "Please, I'm begging you Cindy, open up let's talk. It's not what you are thinking. Nothing happened between Maya and I and nothing can ever happen because I'm not in love with her. You are my world Cindy and I can't imagine my life without you in it. Please just hear me out. I'm sorry for any and every pain I have caused you one way or another but I promise you that nothing happened between Maya and I."Cindy sat on her bed and closed her eyes. She was not going to open the door for Jack because what she saw was very clear.Meanwhile, Jack suddenly recalled s
Cindy sat back sadly on the bed when she recalled what happened in the morning. Even though Jack was being set up just now, it didn't change the fact that he had disrespected her and broken his promise to her.Seeing that Cindy was still silent, Jack continued to beg, "please baby. I am on my knees and I will spend the whole night here begging you, if I have to. Please open the door Cindy."Cindy thought about Maya. She must be jubilating right now because her plans finally became successful. Jack kept pleading for her to open the door and when she heard him say he was on his knees, Cindy's heart broke even more.Jack went on his knees and leaned his head on the door. He felt really exhausted especially due to the wet underwear he still had on. He already knew that Cindy was a very stubborn girl yet he went ahead and fell in love with her. This was the price he was paying for that decision.Jack was so engrossed in his thoughts that he didn't hear Cindy unlock the door. She pulled the
Maya laid on her bed thinking about her next plan. Since Jack and Cindy's relationship has been completely ruined by her. She knew that Cindy would not forgive Jack considering her kind of person.This meant that Jack was going to be completely heart-broken. Well this was the opportunity she had been waiting for. She would offer him a shoulder to cry on and help him forget about that stupid Cindy and she was going to begin right away.She took out her phone and began to call Jack. However, Jack had left his phone in the pocket of his shorts and was now in the bathroom with Cindy.He smiled at Cindy and said, "I'm sorry my love. I know that I've not really lived up to your expectations but I want to assure you that I do not take you for granted. I feel very fortunate to have you in my life and I promise never to raise my voice at you again or hurt you physically."Cindy also smiled at Jack and said, "your promises will bear more weight if you keep them Jack.""I know that Cindy. I will
Cindy took one of the pillows and threw it at Jack. I'm not ready for that yet so you had better not try it besides, I don't subscribe to having children outside wedlock.Jack enveloped Cindy in a hug, "of course my love, everything will take place at the right time. Don't be too serious, I'm just messing with you."Jack noticed that Cindy was now staring at her books on the floor and stood up immediately to pick them up but Cindy stopped him. "It's fine Jack, leave it to me."Cindy bent down and began picking up the books while Jack's stomach made a grumbling sound. Cindy turned to look at him and he kept a pitiful face.She smiled and said, "okay, I will whip up dinner for us right away because I'm also hungry.They both went to the kitchen together and Jack leaned on one side of the counter as he watched Cindy make their dinner. As he stared at her, he felt really happy. He couldn't believe he had almost lost her because of his foolishness.Even while he was consoling Maya, he had
Jack was about to return Maya's call when he saw that she had sent him a text which read, "I know you are going through a lot right now just as I am. No one else understands your pain better than I do. I'm so sorry and I will surely be there for you. Good night my beloved friend."At first Jack wondered if Maya had meant to send the message to someone else but when he read till the end, he realized that Maya is under the misconception that his relationship with Cindy had broken off.He decided that since Maya was okay, there was no need for him to call her because he might end up waking Cindy in the process and he didn't want to upset her again in any way.He put the phone back in his pocket and went back to the bed. After a while, he drifted off to sleep.When it was morning, Jack woke up very early and kissed Cindy goodbye. He drove back to his house, took his bath and got ready for work.Meanwhile, Maya went shopping because she had planned on making a very delicious meal for Jack.
Cindy shook her head in refusal. "You already implied that I am a distraction Jack. If I stay in your office, you won't be able to get any work done. We wouldn't want that now, would we?"Let me worry about that" Jack said and held Cindy's hand before dragging her with him into his office.Cindy smiled happily. Jack could really be sweet when he wanted to and she always felt helpless whenever he became like this.She sat in front of him and placed her hands on her cheeks while she watched him try to work on the many files he had on his table.Jack kept staring at Cindy as he was obviously distracted. He had thought it wasn't possible for him to love Cindy any more than he already did but it seemed like after last night, his love for her had increased tremendously.She was all he could see and think about and the best part of it was that this feeling made him happy.Cindy felt bored just sitting idly as she wasn't used to not doing anything. She decided to assist Jack with his work sin
As Jack stared at Cindy, she asked him if he knew the owner of the number or if he had any suspect in mind but he shook his head, much to Cindy's disappointment. Cindy said to him, "Jack, whoever sent me this message is someone who hates me and wants to see me cry but more than that, that person doesn't want us to be together.It has to be someone close to us otherwise, how did the person know that you received a call from Maya and drove to her house? How did the person know that Maya would be hanging from the ceiling and you wouldn't be able to answer my call because of that?How did the person also know that I would act on the message and go to Maya's house? Jack this is someone close to you because I don't have any friends and the only person other than you, who I communicate with often is little Tim.And of course, we both know it is not him." Cindy kept staring at Jack, wondering if he had taken her hint. In the end, he told her to forward the number to him and he would investi
