I can't give up

Tina and Fred were lying peacefully in each other's arms.. they were content.. Tina's phone beeped, it was a message from Jason, 'hope you reached home safely.. thanks for hearing me out.. I am looking forward for Swiss trip.. ' Fred looked at Tina.. she showed him the message.. he said, 'are you too looking forward for the trip? 'she said, 'you look cute when you are jealous.. 'and pinched his cheek.. he said, 'what is the use of being cute when my love would be away from me for a week.' she said, 'hmph.. it's just a week, come, drop me home.. ' he said, 'ok, ' and got dressed..

They reached Tina's house.. Fred dropped her, greeted Tina's parents and went.. he had lot of thoughts stirring in his mind.. he knew that Tina loved him with all her heart, but he was insecure 4 she would be spending a week with Jason who was very much in love with Tina..

He messaged Tina, 'tomorrow we will go shopping.. once you are back from Swiss, let's host the engagement party.. I will make all the arrangements.. ' she responded, 'ok, ' she was lost in thoughts.. she thought.. 'why is Fred becoming possessive.. what happened..is he hiding something from me..?'

Jason felt very happy.. it had been so long that someone spent time with him.. she was Tina.. the only woman who made him fall in love after Sarah.. he thought how close he came to her and cursed himself for not making the first move before Fred.. otherwise she would have been in his arms right now.. he thought.. 'it's not late yet..I will try till there is no hope left.. I already lost my love once.. this time I can't give up so easily.. '

Meanwhile Fred spoke to his parents and asked them to meet Tina's parents and fix up a date for the engagement party... his mom felt very happy.. she thought it was time for her son to settle down .. she knew that there was a fragile child behind his tough facade.. and that child like innocence was what she liked about him and also made her worry for him.. as soon as she met Tina, she studied her very closely.. she was a mother and Fred was her only child.. naturally she was insecure about how her future daughter in law would be.. and Tina made her feel fine.. if it would have been a manipulative woman, she would have done everything to break them up.. but they deserved each other..

She called up Tina's mom and talked about the engagement party.. she asked her to fix a date and let them know..Tina's mom was excited.. she was extremely happy... Fred was a good boy.. after the pain Tina went through.. the loneliness which her child experienced..she felt apprehensive about Tina's future.. but now everything is falling into place.. her child would be a bride soon.. her eyes became wet with joy..
