Joy looked at Drake as he speaks," So, did you like it here?" Joy paused for a moment and said, " Hmm.. it feels nice here😇, your Grams is awesome, you are so lucky to have her."
Drake smiled and said, " yeah! I am, She is an amazing person, there so much we could learn to from her, I love being here Joy."
Joy looked at Drake with affection💖💕 and kept looking, Drake looked back at Joy and asked with a smile😇 on his face, " Why are you looking at me like that🤔🤔? is there something on my face🤔?"
Joy sighed, " Umm... I am sorry Drake😞? I did not know back then". Drake interrupted her and asked, " Why you are apologising? Did something happen?"
Joy Paused for a moment and looked at him, " I was so harsh 😞on you after Mama passed away, I even said, that You won't ever understand my Pain, but after knowing your story, I guess you are the only person who can understand what I am going through because you went through the same, years ago, you have been on the same boat as I am now, You lost you parents", said Joy with a pang of sadness 😞on her face.
Drake looked at Joy in surprise😲 and then looked at his Grams🙄🙄.
"Oh!! So my Grams told you everything about me🤔🤔, It's fine now Joy, time heals every wound💖😇, and I know how hard it is for you, I have been through that before, I can understand this time is hard on you, but do you know what you should do at such times? You should....," said Drake with a lovely smile 💖💖😇on his face.
Joy Cut in Drake and said with a slight smile on her face, " you Should let go of that people and cherish 💖💖the people around you, who loves you and cares for you💖💖😇? Right?"
Drake looked amazed when Joy said this and said smiling," Yes, You are Right😇, but how do you know this😲? Oh!! So Grams already told you this? Huh?"
Joy nodded and smiled😇," Thank you, Drake, Thank you for bringing me here and let me meet your Grams, Its the best place I have ever seen, It gave me a sense of peace, I hope I would come here again," said Joy to show her gratitude towards Drake.
" Yes you can, you are always welcome here, Grams would be so happy to have you here Joy," said Drake with a smile on his face.
Drake and Joy chatted for a while. Soon it was time to leave. Grams gave a gift to Joy and asked her to open it when she reaches home.
It was evening Grams came outside with them to send them off and said Goodbye. She hugged Joy and asked her to take care of her.
Drake then Drove to Mariana City to his house. till they reached home it was already 8:30 PM.
Joy sat on the couch Drake asked her if she would have coffee, Joy said Yes.
Drake prepared two coffee and gave one to Joy and sat beside her.
"Hmmm.. aren't you gonna open it?" asked Drake as he looked at the Gift Grams gave to Joy.
" Uh? Gift? oh.. yeah! I was going to open it " said Joy and took the gift to open it.
It was a beautiful pendant😍, It has a heart 💖in the centre.
" Oh? Grams gave you this?" said Drake surprisingly😲.
" Why? Is something wrong?" asked Joy with a worried look on her face.
Drake looked at Joy and a smile☺☺😇 spread over his face as if he remembered something and said," No, It's just, It's Grams Necklace, She loved it so much, I always asked her to give it to me, so that Once when I would have a Girlfriend, I would give her this, But she would always say that she won't ever give me that, But see? She gave it to you, She must like you a lot, Joy?"
Joy put it back on the box." Aren't you gonna wear it🤔🤔?" asked Drake as she saw Joy putting it back in the box.
"Hmm...I don't think I should wear it, Its Grams", said Joy hesitantly🙄.
Drake looked at Joy smiling 😇🙂and said, " Why? Grams gave you this because she wanted you to wear it, so, please? wear it."
Joy first Hesitated but then she listened to Drake and picked up the Pendent.
" Shall I?" asked Drake as Joy tried to put it on her neck. Joy looked at Drake, hesitated a bit, then she gave him the Pendent.
Drake asked her to turn and sided her hair away from the neck and put the Pendent on her.
Joy turned and Looked at Drake who was still looking at her😍😍, he wasn't even blinking.
" So, is it looking good " asked Joy hesitantly🙄 to avoid Drake Gaze.
"hmm... It looks beautiful on you Joy", said Drake looking at Joy💕💕💖.
Drake came a little closer to Joy💖💖, Joy backed off as she saw Drake coming near him🙄. Drake came closer and puts her hair behind her ear💕. As Drake did this, Joy looked at him surprisingly😲.
For a moment their eyes locked👀👀💖💖💕 and they looked at each other with deep love💖 and care for each other.
The air at that moment felt so intense💖🔥, The moon was full and stars were twinkling in the night. Drake Gulped😶😶, he could not take his eyes off from Joy. He came a little closer💕. Joy could not think of anything and as she saw Drake coming closer to him she closed her eyes hurriedly😲👀.
Drake looked at Joy Closing her eyes, he paused there for a moment in front of Joy's face😍, he could feel Joy's breath, he wanted to kiss her👄👄, but he smiled 💖💖☺☺and just disappeared from there to another room.
He thought maybe it was not the right time. Joy opened her eyes and saw Drake was not there, Joy stood up from the couch, looked around her and then went to the room and shut the door.
Joy heart was racing and so was Drake💖💖. They both were in the different room thinking what did they do just🤔? were they crazy😕😔? what were they trying to do😕? They should not this right now🤭🤭.
It was a strange night for both of them😕😕. they never talked about it and just pretended like it never happened.
As days were passing by Joy was trying to get better. she was healing and Drake was happy to see her getting better every day.
Joy was a little worried, She doesn't want to be a burden on Drake, it's been a month and Drake was taking care of her, he even did not go to his work for her. she felt like she was depending on him too much. So, she decided to leave Drake house and find a place to live.
Joy, Packed her bag but she didn't want to leave without saying anything to Drake. Joy decided to wait for Drake to return.
As Drake came from his work, he saw Joy sitting on the couch as If she was going out. Drake gave Joy a smile and asked," Hey, are you going out?"
Drake saw a bag beside Joy, he looked at Joy in surprise and asked again," why you are taking a bag with you?"
Joy stood up and said hesitantly," Uhhh... Drake? I am leaving."
Drake was bewildered😨😨." What? you are leaving? but why Joy? did something happen😲? Did I do something that made you upset😟😟? huh?" asked Drake with a worried tone.
" No, Drake, you did not do anything wrong, It's just, I can't live here anymore, It's not right", said Joy hesitantly.
"But Joy, What is wrong in that😟? Friends are there to help each other, Aren't they?" asked Drake in a worried tone.
"You had already done enough for me Drake💖, You helped me when no one was there, but I can't just depend on you for forever😟, I should find a place for myself, I can't always stay here😟😟?" said Joy with sadness on her face.
Drake felt too heartbroken, he can stop himself from asking," Can't you? why can't you depend on me? can't you stay here? huh?"
" Joy looks so troubled and flustered🙄😶😶 at his question, she could not answer him.
"I am going now," said Joy and turned to leave.
Drake stood still, he could figure out how he can stop Joy from leaving, he was getting anything to stop her, suddenly an idea struck in his mind and he shouted," Joy, Joy? Stop, Please and listen to me."
Joy turned and looked at Drake and asked what it is. Drake took a deep breath.
" Joy, I have an idea, So, Please hear it, and if you don't like it, then I won't stop you from leaving, Okay?" said Drake with hope in his eyes and worried tone.
Joy looked at perplexed Drake and said," Okay, what it is? But If I didn't like your Idea then I won't stay."
" You said, you don't want to be freeloader in my house? right? and You don't want to be burden on me? Then I had a good work deal for you", said Drake as he came towards Joy and took her bag from her and made her sit on the couch.
" A Deal? What kind of a work deal?" asked Joy as she looked at Drake.
What kind of work deal was Drake going to make with Joy to make her stay in his house🙄😲? Would Joy really consider accepting his offer😕😕? and If she does would that Deal let the love💖💖 that is hidden in dark see the bright light 👀❤❤and make its way to Joy's and Drake's heart?
