Cross- Roads:- What To Choose Love Or Friendship 36 Stay

Hayley wanted to ask Tyler what meant by this comment of his but then her phone rang and she looked at the caller ID, it showed Mom calling. Hayley picked up the call after reaching a corner and asked her mother where did she went and her mother told her that she went to rest room but now she was lost in the palace and couldn't able to find her way back to the ball room. Hayley knew that her mother was hopeless with the directions so she told her mother to stay where she was and Hayley was coming to her. Hayley found her mother way far away from rest room and exactly opposite direction of ball room, after finding her mother Hayley told her mother not to go around here alone and then they both proceed towards the ball room when they both reached the entrance of the ball room Hayley again heard the sound of phone ringing and this time it was not her phone it was Keith's phone, someone calling Keith, Hayley picked up the call and signaled her mother to go in first when Hayley answered the call there was some lady on the other side of the phone Hayley told her that Keith was busy and if she called to congratulate him Hayley would pa.s.s on her greetings and if she would tell Hayley her name it would be easy for to pa.s.s on the greetings but before Hayley could say anything the call got disconnected. Weird thought Hayley but she put this aside and turned around to enter the room and at this moment she collided with someone, when she looked up to see the face of the person she collided with she froze, she collided with Aaron and what's wrong with his face. His face was red and his eyes were red and he looks like he was about to explode. Before Hayley could apologize to him, he just ignored her and walked past her and it was expected from him because he was treating her like air from past few days but Hayley still felt little sad. She had urge to go after him and see if he was okay but she also didn't want him to insult her again and the battle between her mind and heart starts. Mind wants her to let Aaron be and her heart wanted her to run after Aaron and make sure that he was okay. As always heart won over mind and Hayley hurriedly followed after Aaron.

After watching that video Aaron wanted to get out from there as soon as possible, he wanted to compose himself because that video came as storm and shattered his inner peace completely. He didn't want to ruin this big day of Keith and Ginny so he needs to calm himself down. The more he wants to run away from his past, the more he wants to move on his past would always caught up to him no matter how hard he tried, what he did so wrong in his life that he had to suffer like this, was there no salvation for him in the whole wide world?, with this thought Aaron entered the back garden and got seated on a stone bench. In his thoughts he didn't noticed that someone was following him.

When Hayley saw Aaron like that she felt pain inside her heart she didn't know why but she felt a cold hand gripped her heart and by every pa.s.sing minute the grip was increasing its force making it hard for her to breath. She was standing from some distance from the stone bench on which Aaron was sitting right now she can clearly see how defeated he looked and how he was trying to control a storm that was raging inside him, but what cause this storm, wondered Hayley. She reached up to Aaron until this point her mind was telling her to turn back and leave but her heart said otherwise. She listened to her heart and thought worse come to worse he was going to yell at her as if it was going to first time when he was going to be rude to her. With this thought she proceed towards him with a water bottle in her hand. While she was following Aaron here she took this bottle from waiter who was going towards the ball room with a box full of mineral water bottles so she took one of the bottle from that box and followed Aaron till here. She took a long breath and sit besides Aaron and extended her hand which have water bottle in it towards Aaron. Aaron was not aware that there was someone else present there and he frowned when he saw the water bottle. Hayley flinched from his reaction she should have expected this reaction form Aaron right he was always like that with her she thought but then she gulped again and said " It is the worst feeling in the world when you wanted to cry and you are not able to do so because of any reason, the choking feeling in your throat is the worst part of it" said Hayley " Have some water Aaron you might feel better" she added after few seconds because her hands was still extended towards Aaron and he was showing no sign to accept or reject the bottle, her hand started to feel little numb. After seeing he was not reacting Hayley thought it was time to leave so she got up but before she could be able to took step towards the exist of the garden Aaron grabbed her hand stopping her in her tracks. Before she could turn around she felt Aaron standing and leaving her hand, she thought she could turn around now but then his one hand went around Hayley's waist from behind and he rested her head on her shoulder and softly said "Stay."
