Why is she not coming?

~AFTER SARAH WENT OUT

Andrew texted in the group chat letting everyone in the group which was especially made for Sarah's birthday by Louis, to let them know that Sarah left for office. He also said that it was really hard for him to even look at Sarah as he could not wish her a happy birthday. The group chat was filled with messages.

The first one was Louis, "Great! Sunny, Bailey, Edward, Shining and Eva (members of Sarah's firm and Eva is the receptionist) I hope you all also don't let her know anything and keep her busy with works.

The five of them: Okay!

Louis: Everyone, please get going to Sarah's apartment. We have lots of work to do. Mr. and Mrs. Watson, I will be there to pick you all from your home.

Mr. Watson: Okay!

Alice: I am so excited but I am feeling sad because I have not wished her yet.

Mrs. Watson: Yes, we should at least wish her. I don't want her to get sad on this day anymore. I was such a fool that I did not celebrate her birthday so nicely until today.

Amy: No, we should control ourselves so that we can surprise her in the best way. So, please do not wish her.

Nancy: I am just too excited to see how her reaction will be.

Louis went to pick up Sarah's parents and they reached her apartment. John and Amy had already went to Sarah's apartment. The others who agreed on helping for the decorations and stuffs were already there. So, there were Andrew, John, Amy, Mrs. Watson, Mia, Alice, Nancy, Mr. Watson and Louis.

First of all everyone started discussing about how many people will be there so as to prepare the food for required amount. They started discussing about the variety of foods. After finalizing all these things Alice, Mrs. Watson and Mia were to make food. Andrew and Louis went for shopping for the required things. Until they returned others just had fun chatting and also cleaned the place. Andrew and Louis went in Louis car. In the car they talked.

Andrew asked, "Do you really love her?" Louis was driving so he didn't look at him so without even thinking for a second he said, "Yes". Andrew felt a little bitter in his heart however he was surprised when Louis asked him, "What about you?" Andrew was shocked but he lied, "Yes, Sarah is my best friend." Louis glanced at him and again turned front and said, "You don't have to lie. I know you love her. I don't have any problem if you love her. I can understand that she is a person who is loved by everyone. But I guess it's up to her whom she chooses. I won't meddle up in between you guys if she choose you. However you should do the same." Andrew was stunned when he heard those words. In his heart he thought, 'Well, he is not a bad person.'

Andrew replied, "Okay, but don't tell her. Because I am not going to tell her as I know that she just thinks me as a best friend and I am just happy if she loves any guy who should love her and respect her. I will be happy if she is happy. Just promise me that you will never make her unhappy and break her trust if she chooses you."

Louis looked at him and said, "I promise. But I didn't know that you loved her so much that you even gave up." They talked about Sarah's likes and dislikes in whole way until they reached back after taking the required things. The three of them started the preparations of foods in the kitchen and the others started the decorations stuffs like blowing the balloons and making the lobby a bigger place to have fun by moving sofas and tables and others in their perfect places. They also kept some lights to decorate the place and flowers were beautifully kept. After moving the things, Andrew and Louis also helped in the kitchen. They ordered lunch from outside because everyone was busy. All of them laughed and had fun while chatting and eating. Finally everyone started waiting for a message from the group chat. A message popped up in everyone's cell phone.

Eva: We all are leaving right now and she said that she will also leave in a few minutes. We will be there soon. The other people who could not help with decorations also reached and the members from law firm also reached. Mia was kept to look when Sarah will come and she should inform everyone. So, Mia was on the balcony and Amy gave her company.

Mrs. Watson asked, "Eva, didn't you tell that she will be here soon? Why is she not here yet? Everyone is already here." Eva replied, "Yes, Mrs. Watson. I guess she stayed a little more in the office." Nancy said, "Until she comes let's have some tea and coffee. I will make it." She said excitedly. Andrew reacted very fast after hearing her sister. "Nancy, don't bother, we don't want to spoil our taste buds after drinking something you make." Everyone laughed. Nancy said, "Then you go and make." Andrew asked what they wanted tea or coffee and he made and Louis also went to help and they served all of them together. After waiting more, Mia finally said, "She's here." Amy added, "But I did not see her car and she came by walking." Alice said, " Okay let's turn off the lights and everyone be quiet and take your positions." Everyone said, "Okay." and they hide themselves well so that they can jump towards Sarah when she enters. They waited. Andrew said, "Why is she not coming? She should have already been here." Louis said, "Let's wait, she will be here soon."

SARAH'S P.O.V.

I reached the building. I thought to myself, 'Maybe Andrew remembers now. I should go and check him in his apartment.' So, I went to Andrew's floor and rang the bell. I did not get any response. I finally broke out. 'I guess he really does not remember.' I was crying. I sat there for a few minutes thinking that if I was not an important person in anyone's life that I did not get even one wish on my birthday. No one cares about me. Then, I headed towards my apartment with tears falling down from my eyes.

LIVING MUST GO ON LIVING WITHOUT LETTING THE ONE WHO LEFT THE WORLD HAMPERING YOUR LIFE LIKE SARAH WAS NOT ABLE TO CELEBRATE HER BIRTHDAY. SO, WHAT DO YOU THINK SARAH'S REACTION WILL BE WHEN SHE ENTERS HER APARTMENT? HOW WOULD YOU HAVE REACTED IF YOU WERE IN HER PLACE? LET ME KNOW YOUR VIEWS.

THANK YOU EVERYONE.

LOTS OF LOVE
