He was hesitant at first. What will he do by spending time with the couple? Being a third party was not easy job. You had to bear the brunt from the both side. Before he could raise his voice, she grabbed his hand. Thus it startled him.
He looked at his friend's eyes. They were filled with discomfort of him being there with them. He nodded his head , responding friend's discomfort eyes by showing his helplessness.
They spent the whole day , walking and talking about their lives though it was his friend who did most talking amongst the three. Arjun observed her throughout the conversation. She looked bored and why not? His friend's habit of showing off never impressed too many people. But she never tried to stop in between or showed any displeasure.
They were at the cafe. He placed the order like always because his friend never took the responsibilities of making any decision. He was dependent only on Arjun.
While giving orders, he asked her, " What would you like..." This was bad. They hadn't even asked her name or made any introduction. "Lucy! A cup of coffee would do.", she said.
They continued talking when he interrupted, " We know your name but we didn't tell ours." Her cheeks turned a bit pink. " Oh yeah! We didn't have proper introduction. I am Lucy and I stay with my sister , Fern.", she said. "Oh you have a sister. Then you are lucky, Arjun", his friend joked. Arjun was embarrassed while Lucy gave him a stern look.
