1 Fate

It was the rainy season with heavy down pour wiping the streets of W city clean and clear.

"I wish that I can control time and not meet you ever again"

The scars of love are impossible to erase but the scars of betrayal are hard even to hide.

"I loved you with all of my heart .Was it not enough? "

Xiao Ling sighed remembering the old memories which were still fresh in her mind.

She was back in W city for the job she got selected for- The personal assistant of the CEO of Shen group of companies. She thought of going for shopping as she didn't have any groceries in her home.

She just landed in the city in the noon and was busy until now in unpacking her stuffs and in the middle of nowhere she was thinking of that someone who broke her heart seven years ago.

Picking up a jacket she went out from her apartment and drove her car to the nearest mini market.

She was done with her shopping and came out with two full grocery bags in her hand.On the way to her car she bumped with an strong chest.

"Sorry" she said barely able to handle herself and her bags.

"It's okay" the man said and looked at her face.

"lingling"the man said in shock.

"Who?" Xiao Ling said with a confused look ,trying hard to recognise the person in front of her.

"Don't you dare say that you don't remember me.Have you forgotten me??" he said with a pout.

"Have you forgotten your high school sweetheart?" he said with a wink.

"Li Tan!!!!!!!!!"Xiao ling shouted in disbelief.

This shameless punk. She ran fast towards her car and kept the groceries in it and came back running to him.

"You shameless punk"she shouted.

"You left me in this city saying you will call me whenever you get time but never called me"she said in a high pitched voice.

"and the moment we meet you are on with your teasing. "She said angrily.

How could she not be angry when one of her best friends left her in the middle of high school and never once called in all this years .

"Cool down girl! I am sorry I lost your number and don't worry I am back by your side to love and protect you now".he said hugging her.

She hugged him back

"Don't worry while I was abroad I didn't fall for any other girls I stayed true towards you."he said with an sincere smile while keeping his right hand on his heart.

Xiao ling couldn't help but scoff by his words.

" I heard all the daily news of you .Even the one of your breakup with Shen Yifeng. How could you fall in love with him while i was waiting for you there"he said with an fake angry face.

At the mention of his name Xiao Ling's face became cold.

There was an awkward silence between the two. Lin Tan was not dumb not to

Understand the change of her face with a sigh he rested his arms around her shoulder and guided her towards her car.

"What is with your poker face?huh?You are not a child now i am not going to coax you" and then suddenly he flicked her on her forehead and only few knew she got angry when someone did that to her,and Lin Tan was on of the few.

In only a few moments Lin Tan was running whereas Xiao Ling was running after him,both of them were like children running around completely forgetting about their purpose of coming there.
