"And you want to have a drink with me?"

"You do not want to?"

"Who said I cannot come late for my party or better still, I would leave on time."

"Jade, I do not know about that. It would be unheard of if the star of the show suddenly disappears midway into the engagement party."

"Okay, if you do not want to go, for old times sake, then no worries. I understand." She turned around and made her way to her work desk.

Letting out a sigh, Jade placed both hands on the table, lowering her head.

'What am I doing? I do not know. I want to kiss him, I want to hug him tight but I cannot. He is so close yet so far away? Why does love always have to be this way? Can't I for once have it my way? Damn this rebirth. Damn you!'
