Chapter 232 - Stole the reason of staying alive...

"Henry…" A sweet voice of a girl rang through his ears, making Henry widened his eyes in ultimate shock..

The voice was too much familiar to Henry.. Actually not only Henry but to each members of their friends group...

Cause the owner of this sweet angelic voice was also once a friend to them..

Using past tense to detect their friendship would also be wrong here because they were still friends with the girl..

But it was her who had become distant from their amazing group for some reasons about which no one except God and the girl herself were aware..

"Amy..???" Henry asked still being not sure that she was really the friend of them, he was thinking about..

"Yes.. this is Amy, Henry.. You still remember my voice?" The girl asked Henry feeling kind of happy that Henry still remembered her even after so many years.

Henry furrowed his eyebrows in uncertainty and said, "Why would I forget you?? You were once a friend of ours. Not only me, even any of our friends would know in a click of their fingers that it is you.."

Amy flared her nose in anger and said through gritted teeth, "I'm not talking about others Henry. I'm only talking about you."

"Why are you getting all hyper suddenly? Firstly, you are calling me for the first time after you left the country and now you're blabbering anything whatever is coming in our mind.

However, leave it now and tell me how are you doing far away from your country and friends? Most importantly, why did you feel the necessity to suddenly call me?" Henry asked.

"I'm good Henry. It's just that I miss you all..." Amy said after giving a sigh..

Henry smiled hearing that their friend had missed them all and said, "We miss you too. And if you really miss us all then why didn't you call any of us for even a single time? Even not a single message..

In fact you have changed your number too. That's not fair. You know that we all had tried to contact you but when you blocked us all to connect you, we decided that we should give you some time and space to think about everything and calm yourself.

So we gave you the privacy you needed and didn't try to find you again but who knew that it would take you so many years to remember us and to give us a phone call."

Amy felt sorry after hearing Henry's words but she knew whatever he said was completely true, so without arguing, she just apologized, "I'm sorry. I know that I took a lot of time but from now on, I'll talk to you all more often. I promise.."

"That's good to hear." Henry said.

"Hmm.. By the way, I just saw the news of Reuben and Veronica committing their relationship. I'm so happy for them...

They are looking so pretty and compatible in all those photographs that they posted." Amy said beaming brightly.

Henry also smiled thinking about his best friend and cute sister before saying, "Yup they are really the best couple. And they also helped me a lot to change my relationship status."

This caught Amy's attention as she asked with her furrowed eyebrows, "Your relationship status? Wha.. what do you mean by that?"

As she asked the question, Amy's smile turned into a frown and her heart was only praying one thing to God, 'Please God, whatever I'm thinking, don't let it turn out to be true..'

On the other side, remembering about his precious girlfriend, Henry's smile turned into a wide grin as he said, "Yup.. My relationship status had changed from single to mingle...

Though I loved that girl from so many years but never had the guts to confess my love to her. So seeing my cowardly behavior, Reuben forced me to propose her whereas Vero gave me confidence. You would be extremely happy to know, who that girl is who have the audacity to make my heart all fluttered.."

Amy was shocked to hear this that Henry was already in a relationship but she still kept herself sober to know about the girl whom not only Henry loved, but also Veronica and Reuben supported to their best...

That's mean she was really very special... 

"So who is the girl Henry?" Amy asked though she was feeling uncomfortable in ger heart.

"Oh.. You know her very well. It's Lucy.. Our Lucinda whom I love more than anything in the world.." Henry said excitedly..

"Lucinda?" Amy asked being utterly shocked.

"Yes.. It's Lucy. We love each other very much.." Henry proudly confessed.

Whereas Amy couldn't hold the pain anymore in her heart and said with a choking voice, "Henry... I have an important call to attend. I'll call you later.."

Henry found something different with Amy's tone but still didn't mention it as he said, "Okay bye. Talk to you later. Don't forget to call other friends.."

"Yes.. I'll call them too. However, congratulations on your new relationship." Amy said with tears brimming in her eyes..

"Thanks a lot, Amy..." Henry said.

Hanging up the call, Amy's eyes filled with tears but she wiped it out of her face before it could land on her cheeks as she muttered to herself angrily, "Lucinda Wilson... You already ruined my life once..

Now you also stole the reason of staying alive from me.. I won't ever forgive you. I'll make sure, you don't get any happiness that you had snatched away from me.."

Love-Paradise...

Both Reuben and Veronica had finished their dinner after all their naughty drama and small bickering..

Reuben was now playing some games in his gaming room while Veronica was reading a novel, lying on the big comfy couch..

But even after staring at the same page for over half an hour, she hadn't even registered a whole paragraph till yet..

Her mind was giving her some raw signal which was disturbing her concentration level..

"Bennie.. I feel like something bad is going to happen.."
