40 Lost in the Momen (1/2)

Will was very concerned for Crystal. She quietly stared out of the car's window, as she was fidgeting her fingers.

He placed his arm on her neck and comforted her.

She rested her head on his shoulder and closed her eyes.

Crystal felt very peaceful with Will by her side. Apart from the girls, she could really rely on him. And a company of male friend is the best sometimes.

She knew Will's affection for her, but she denied it all the years back because of her insecurities.

She was grateful to have him, when the girls weren't with her. At the time she was pursuing business management studies, only Will stayed with her in a rented apartment.

All thanks to her grandmama and her emotional blackmails, as she was very fond of Will.

He was her colleague, her friend, her protector, her competitor in University.

Of course they felt the magnetic pull towards each other. But Will respected her decision and gave her space.

And now when she started feeling for Will, the man in her painful dreams have come back to claim her.

She couldn't deny the fact that even today, her heart beats for Watson.

The bitter truth as it was, she couldn't start something with Will without destroying all her feelings for Watson.

Will gently stroked her hair, ”You stress yourself so much.”

Crystal looked up from his shoulder and gave him her pretty little smile, ”Says the most hardworking man!”

Will smiled lovingly at her, ”Where should I drop you?”

Crystal looked hurt, ”I'm not your responsibility. I'll go myself and....”

Before she could complete, Will placed his hands on her face and made her look at him, ”Do not ever say that. I care for you and I will keep caring and loving you and right now you need space. The entire conference conversation has suffocated you.”
