Chapter 1156: 1156 The fiance and the son

1156 The fiance and the son

He turned to his ex-girlfriend, wondering the same thing about her. What was she doing in the same building at the same time as him? Could it be another coincidence, or was it planned?

“Wait!” She stopped him from answering. “Don’t tell me he called you too about his fiance and son.” Looking just astonished as he was.

Now, he was having doubts. What were the chances that they would bump into each other like this? None. It seemed his other friend had matched him again with their dear old friend.

“Hi, Bianca.” He finally greeted her since it was too late for him to back out. The elevator doors were already closed. Then, they climbed to their destination. “I guess he called us both.” That could be the only explanation.

After last night, he thought that he might not see her again. But it seemed that was not the case. Nonetheless, he was glad they had cleared the air between them and put the closure in their past relationship.

“What are the chances he was telling the truth about a fiance and a son?” Bianca asked him as silence enveloped them in the small metallic confinement.

“Now, none.” Honestly, he started to believe his friend. But seeing Bianca, he could finally conclude that it was just another game for his friend. “I think he just wanted us in the same room.”

Everybody knew they were the next couple to get married. They had been the perfect match. But things did not work out for them. Eventually, they had to go on separate ways. And there was no room for reconciliation.

At least on his part.

.....

“I guess it was wishful thinking that he had changed,” Bianca answered as they waited for the long trip up to the top floor.

“I guess so,” Zach agreed and decided to continue the conversation, not wanting to make things awkward between them. After all, they belonged in the same social circle. They would always bump into each other.

She turned to him and smiled. “By the way, I know I already said this last night, but thanks for forgiving me. I appreciate it if you find it in your heart to be my friend.”

“Of course, we can.” He answered, glad they could settle their issue like grown-ups. Besides, he never liked harboring ill feelings toward other people.

“Are you planning to stay here for good?” Bianca asked him as they neared their floor. “You said that you are seeing someone.”

“Probably.” He shrugged his shoulder since he had never thought of that yet. “But I am serious about her. I am in love with her.” Zach finally confessed.

Bianca lowered her face, seemingly hurt by his words. But he knew she had to hear that so she would finally realize what they had was over. She could move on and find her path to happiness.

“I am happy for you. You look like you are genuinely happy with this woman. I hope someday you can introduce her to me. Maybe we can become friends too.” She offered.

He could not see any reason why that was not possible. If Bianca was willing to be friends with Ria, he was sure that his current girlfriend would not hesitate to be friends with her.

Ria always had a big heart.

“Why not?” He responded as the doors of the elevator finally opened. He guided her along the hallway toward his friend’s room.

Bianca said something about their past that made them laugh because it was a funny moment. Then, they started sharing things that made things more comfortable.

They were still laughing when they knocked on their friend’s door. They did not have to wait long since their friend opened the door wide almost immediately and greeted them with excitement.

“Thanks for coming. I knew I could always count on you guys.” His friend smiled at them and ushered them inside.

He looked around the room, wondering if his friend was telling the truth. But there was no one else inside the massive space. But, of course, they could be inside one of the rooms or had gone out for a while.

Still, he was skeptical about his friend’s imaginary future family. Nevertheless, he wanted to give him the benefit of the doubt. Maybe this time, he had changed. He hoped so for his sake.

“So, where are they?” Bianca asked before he could do the same. “Or, are you up to something no good?” She asked again as her eyes narrowed at their friend.

“They are just in the room. I will introduce you to them in a minute.” His friend promised as he showed them to the living room. “I hope you two are back together.” He raised his voice loudly, looking excited about the two of them. “You two have always been the perfect pair.”

“We are...” Zach was about to answer that they were not together, but his friend cut him off.

“But I heard that congratulations are in order.” His friend cheerfully said. “I heard that you are about to get married.” His friend continued as if he had gone mad.

He wondered where his friend heard that. Although he had considered proposing to Ria soon, he still had to do it. He just needed the perfect timing.

Still, he had not told anyone about it. Not Ryan since he had not seen or talked to him for a while. But who knew what his friend was talking about since he loved to play a prank on him?

“Wait here. You two enjoy your little chat. I will get us some wine and check if my fiance and our son are ready to meet you guys.” Ryan moved away from them, grabbed a bottle from the fridge, and placed it on the counter.

Then, his friend entered one of the rooms near the living room. He could not wait to see if he was speaking the truth or was using this incident to play cupid between him and Bianca.

“What do you think?” He asked Bianca, who was quiet beside him.

“I think our friend is full of bullshit,” Bianca said as they both laughed, knowing they could never trust anything Ryan said.

“I guess you are right.” He said, agreeing with her.

“I hope you will invite me to your wedding.” She suddenly congratulated him. Then, she grabbed his hand. “She is one lucky woman.” Then, she smiled. “I still regret what I did.” She immediately hugged him.

He wanted to push her back, but he knew she needed a friend. Therefore, he let her hug him, trying to comfort her as he let his hands mildly tap her on the back. “You will also find the right guy for you. And he would be lucky to have you.” He whispered to her ears.

“Yeah! I hope so.” She uttered in a low voice. “Again, I am sorry, Zach.”

Then, he heard the door open, and their friend came out. Soon, two figures followed him.

He had to blink twice, thinking that he might be imagining things. But when he opened them again and stared at the woman and the boy behind his friend. He knew he was not mistaken. Then, the shock on her face confirmed that it was her.

His friend was not going insane. But he believed he was.

They were the fiance and the son.
