Ex crush vs present boyfriend

IHH , meeting room, top floor

With the loud cheering noise Alasca was bought back to the present. It seems like they all have gotten comfortable with each other, when she was reminiscing the past.

Sighing to herself, she again took her seat and thought 'I confessed, you rejected.... I cried when I knew your house got on fire .... Since the day I confessed, you never spoke to me again, we went different paths but life's a riddle heh! , I can never guess . You are a doctor under me now and I have to help you with adjusting in new area . Now when am sitting between my boyfriend and my ex crush am confused. I loved him but now my man . Since eight I loved you and now am twenty-eight , what a game! '

Finally Johnson noticed that the lady, probably the boss was staring at him intensely. Something about her felt familiar but he was not able to point why he felt so until he heard her voice ringing in the quiet atmosphere.

"Hi Dr. Clifford, I am the largest shareholder of IHH and currently the person appointed to help you out in adjusting to the new climate you are in right now. This is Alasca Ross . Pleasure to meet you after almost a decade Mr. Clifford . " said Alasca with a smirk.

Johnson could feel that he had heard of this name, but as she went on mentioning meeting after a decade and suddenly it clicked that she was the girl whom he might have rejected in past.

Before he could even register everything, he again heard Alasca saying " How have you been? Already thirty, I guess married? How's Leena , sorry I couldn't keep in contact with you guys after the graduation "

Alasca was saying with a laugh , but Garry knew that she actually was shaking and it took her a lot of courage to stay calm and collected in front of everyone, specially in front of Nath who knew nothing about her past. She didn't want Nath to know anything about her heartbreak and all.

Garry knew Nath mattered a lot to Alasca and as her best friend of course he knew both stories. Alasca's past with Johnson and how Alasca started to get hope in love again and met Nath.
