When I got the glimpse of him standing at my door, I was no longer that courageous lady who had ousted her ex-boyfriend from her apartment a while ago. Neither was I that lady who had thought that whatever comes up she will handle it alone. 
I found myself losing from who I was with his sight. My muscles which were as hard as rock suddenly start to melt down making me feel vulnerable. Chills ran down my spine and I gulped hard just to get rid of my dry throat.
He was staring at me with that warm smile on his face, but my eyelids were already filled with tears and it silently ran down without making a noise. The heart which was aching due to the betrayal of my ex-boyfriend was gradually coming to ease with his soothing smile.
He extended his arms and said, “See I told you I am not kidding.”
I was no longer able to hold it. So I ran into his arms and wrapping my hand around his neck hugged him as tightly as I could. The tears which were holding back burst out at once and I wept as loud as I could in his embrace.

“Are you sure you will be fine?” questioned Noah, walking towards me, dressed in a fine tailored grey suit.


Even though I would never say a word in his favor, still I got goosebumps seeing him looking extremely handsome. The hair groomed back added sexy looks to his charm.


“Yes, don’t worry about me. I will be there with Murphy,” I replied, gazing at him in the reflection of the mirror.


“What are you going to wear then? I think you don’t have anything to…”


“Don’t bother about it. I will find some random clothes to wear and join you. You just go and pick up mom and dad.”


“You sure, right?” he asked for assurance again.


He turned around to leave but suddenly he turned back again, calling out, "By the way, Quynh!"


"Hmm!" I replied, still gazing at his reflection.


"While finding some random clothes, let me tell you don't end up wearing a costume for Halloween. For your reminder, It is my welcome event,” he mocked chuckling.


“Noah!” I turned to him in annoyance.
