Cross- Roads:- What To Choose Love Or Friendship 41 Cross-Road

Finally the reception party ended, and there was only family and few friends left to be precise it was Keith and Ginny's family there and his core group of friends. Keith and Ginny were out from their wedding attires and now wearing their casual clothes. They both were going to their honeymoon straight from the wedding venue. It was Keith who was way too excited for their honeymoon that he decided to spent their first wedding night in his private jet, this guy is out of his mind Hayley thought to herself seeing Keith all excited for his honeymoon that he didn't want to wait for another second. While they all were waiting for Ginny and Keith's ride to arrive, Aunt Sarah said that she needs to go first because she was feeling too tired and Hayley's mother said that she would accompany Sarah home, so at the end there was Keith, Ginny, Tyler, Nora, Aaron, Hayley and Caleb was left there. They were chatting among themselves while waiting when Keith asked Hayley how was she going to get home to that Hayley replied that she would get a taxi home. The palace was located in a remote location so everyone knew that it would be hard for Hayley to get a taxi, Aaron could see how reluctant was Keith to let Hayley wait for taxi and he himself wouldn't want Hayley to wait here for taxi so he offered that he would drop Hayley home safe and sound. He added safe and sound because of Keith to that Keith said that it would be huge favor on him because if it wouldn't for Aaron Keith would have been worried to death. While they were having this conversation Tyler said all of sudden " Hey bro Aaron while you are doing a favor to Keith could you do me a favor too?" to which Keith and Aaron who were having their conversation turned towards Tyler and Aaron raised his eyebrow in questioning manner. When Tyler got the sign to go ahead so he continued "See Caleb is drinking like a fish. He is way too drunk so he can't drive and he didn't brought his driver and I have to drop Nora home and…" before Tyler could finish his sentence Aaron said "Ok I will drop him home too" and that's how these three settled the biggest problem of the day according to them. Three ladies who were standing there felt left out and ignorant mostly Hayley. Then she asked Tyler cutting their conversation " Where is Caleb?" everybody felt silent for a moment and then Tyler replied " He was still in Ballroom, drinking" to that Hayley nodded and she went towards the ballroom under very watchful eye of Keith and Aaron.

The party was over and everyone left the ballroom and it was eerily quite and in one corner of the room near the bar area there was sitting a handsome man in white tuxedo in front of him there was three empty bottle of wine and there was still one gla.s.s of wine left and he was holding that gla.s.s and tracing the circle around the rim of the gla.s.s. It was happy occasion his best friend Keith got married to the love of his life today but Caleb feeling little lonely today especially after watching the scene between Aaron and Hayely. It was first time he saw Aaron cry and it was first time he saw Aaron rely on someone expect his friends but that was not bothering Caleb the thing that was bothering him was the look in Aaron's eyes when he was looking at Hayley while dancing. He knows that look too well because he also had that look for Hayley many time. Aaron was finally moving on and Caleb would have been super happy about it if it was had any other girl but Aaron was moving on with the girl whom Caleb also love. He was standing on a cross-road and he didn't know which way to go, on one side lays his happiness and on the other side lays his friends happiness, but in his thoughts Caleb forgot one major factor of this story and that was Hayley, what she thinks and feels was way more important than what Aaron and Caleb thinks.
