Chapter 59
Ryan was finally free from the college, having to drop out in the middle of his master’s. degree. He was prepared to start his new job on Monday. While sipping his morning coffee, a sudden memory flashed in his mind.
It was from the day he had gotten too drunk and ended up at Roaxana’s office. He stopped drinking abruptly as the memory resurfaced, feeling a sense of uncase wash over him. He had kissed Roaxana.
Covering his eyes with his hand, Ryan let out a sigh and ran his fingers through his hair. “How could I do that to her?” he muttered to himself, placing the coffee mug back on the table. With a heavy heart, he made his way to his bedroom to retrieve his phone.
He stared at Roaxana’s number, thinking how to call and say it to her. But he had to apologize to her. He recalled how Roaxana was upset with him the next day because he kissed her not due to his drunkard state.
Yet, as he thought about calling her, nervousness crept deep within him, leaving him uncertain of what to say. Eventually, he opted to suggest meeting in person, hoping for a chance to explain himself. With a message sent to her, he anxiously awaited Roaxana’s
response.
He picked up the coffee mug to finish the remaining coffe. “I don’t even know what she thought of me. I did the worst thing I could do as a man,” Ryan murmured, feeling frustrated at himself.
He finished the coffee soon and washed the mug. His hunger had vanished too as he didn’t feel like having breakfast at all. He must be out of his mind to kiss Roaxana, his best friend. Hitting his head against the pillar, he cussed himself.
Suddenly, his phone began ringing and he quickly rushed to pick it up. “Roxy,” he murmured as her name flashed on the screen. Clearing his throat, Ryan answered her
call.
“Why do you wish to meet?” Roaxana asked from the other side.
“I wanted to discuss something with you. Are you free?” Ryan inquired.
“Yeah, it’s weekend. So, I’m free,” Roaxana replied. “Where do you want to meet?” She slowed down the treadmill’s speed.
“Umm… anywhere you want to,” Ryan replied.
“I’ll send you a message in a while,” Roaxana asserted.
“Sure.” The call was disconnected. She ran for a few more minutes and then got down!

Roaxana entered the restaurant and spotted Ryan, who already had booked the table. He rose to his feet and pulled out a chair for Roaxana, who thanked him and sat on it.
I didn’t eat much at home. What do you wish to cat?” She checked the menu, scanning her eyes through the dishes.
“Anything you like,” Ryan replied.
Roaxana decided for the dishes and gave the order to the waiter.
“What’s with you? Why have you made that face? Is everything good?” Roaxana asked
him.
“The day you dropped me to my home, did I do something?” Ryan asked her. He clasped his fingers tightly in apprehension:
“Why do you ask about something which happened a week ago?” Roaxana questioned as she squinted her eyes in suspicion. She was unable to understand why Ryan suddenly talking about that day when she already forgot it.
“I kissed you, didn’t I?” Ryan suddenly asked her, causing Roaxana’s eyes to grow bigger. He noticed her expression and realized he did that. “I’m really very sorry, Roxy. I have no idea why I did that. I didn’t do anything more to you, right?” he looked worried thinking he might acted like a man or ill values that day.
“How much do you remember?” Roaxana asked. As they were on that topic, she thought she should discuss about it.
“I only recalled kissing you,” Ryan answered.
“I had put you to sleep, but you wanted me to stay by your side that night. You were badly affected by the breakup and cheat that happened with you,” Roaxana started as she began explaining him. She told him how he rushed to the shower and then, she helped him. “That’s when you did that,” Roaxana proclaimed and finally paused.
Ryan clenched his eyes shut in frustration. He was furious with himself for putting Roaxana through such a difficult ordeal that night.

“I’m very sorry to you, Roxy. I didn’t wish to do that. I must be out of my mind. Please forgive me,” Ryan lowered his eyes in embarrassment and shame. He could not believe. he did such s thing to her bestfriend and he was truly guilty about it.

Tears welled up in Karla’s eyes as she gazed at Daniel. “You used to love me, Daniel,” she whispered, her voice trembling with emotion.
“I was a fool to ever love you. Your sister is way ahead of you. She had Logan Moore wrapped around her finger. Turns out, Hope is far more valuable than I ever realized,” Daniel muttered with a cold chuckle. “Isn’t the money sufficient for you?” he added, his tone dripping with disdain.
