“I need your help, Ash.” I heard Evelyn trying to lift that cold steel container full of Pecan flavored ice cream.

“Hey.” I quickly left the cash register and went to her. We lifted it up and placed it in the hole inside the big showcase.”

“Ok. So where is the container?” Elijah asked us while stretching his arms, showing his non- existent biceps

“Sorry, chief. You are late.” I could not help the smile flashing on my face. Now he was in trouble.

“I had been calling you for the past ten minutes!” Evelyn roared and even hit him on the chest.

“Hey! I was just coming. Ok?”

“No, you were not. You were busy scrolling your phone.”

“Ev!” He rolled his eyes and pulled her to him.

“Oh, God. I guess I should go out. It’s too much hot in here.” I waved my hand while teasing them.

“Great idea. I need this privacy so that I can kiss her.” He showed me a thumbs-up sign.

“No, Ash. You are not going anywhere.” Evelyn snapped and tried to push him away.

“People. Get to work. What’s the fuss about?” A panicked Sam came inside the back room, am serving there all alone.”

“They are fighting for a kiss.” I tried to bite back my smile.

When he turned to the couple questioningly, Evelyn gave a shove to Elijah.

“He was busy on his phone despite my asking him to help me. So, no. He is not getting the kiss.” Evelyn was hell angry.

“Then it’s decided. Ashley will get that kiss from you!”

“What!” I looked up horrified at this absurd notion. This made Evelyn and Sam crack up Elijah just huffed at the poor joke choice of his cousin that was not so poor.

It had been four days to that insulting nightmare. The first day when I did not open the door, Justin left the phone box at my doorstep. The maid who brought me dinner informed me about it. She was not allowed to touch it. Once she left, I opened the box. As expected, there

was a chit.

SHE WON’T DO IT AGAIN, ASHLEY. I PROMISED YOU, I WILL KEEP YOU SAFE. PLEASE

FORGIVE ME.

Those cute notes were becoming my addiction.

The necklace was still with him, but I had started using my phone. To my surprise, my orphanage contact details and Aniya’s details were already saved there.

I had even started exchanging calls and messages with my old friends.

By now, I had again gotten busy with the cash register when after some time I heard hushed voices behind me.

“You tell her.”

“No silly. You go to her and talk.”

“She is your friend. Go, Evelyn!”

“She is YOUR employee! You go Elijah!”

I frowned and spoke up without turning around, “Elijah! Evelyn. What is it?” They had gone quiet.

“Guys!” I again called them.
