Coincidence Or Fate

After choosing a horse, they took the horse out of the ranch.

With the help of the old man and Jamie the girl was able to get up on the horse back. She was scared once she got on the horse, "Jamie..."

The man quickly got on the horse and grab hold of her hands. "I'm here, don't worry."

The moment the man held her hand, she stops trembling and her heart that was beating in fear turned to flutter. She took a quick glance of the man behind him, her face turned red and she averted away avoiding the man from noticing her.

"You ready?" the man's husky voice said from behind her.

She was spacing-out that she was unable to replay, but just nod her head. Her heart was beating so fast she was worried that he would hear it, they were so close to each other, that she could not keep calm.

Jamie controlled the horse in a steady pace, avoiding Angelique from getting anxious. As they rode the horse together, they were heading inside the woods.

They could only hear the sound of birds and animals, the wind blowing the branches of the trees they were indeed surrounded by nature. It was so peaceful and the fresh air has been just perfect.

"Having fun?"

Angelique gave a genuine smile, "I am."

As they approached the end of the woods, an enormous clear blue lake welcomed them. The girl eye widens at seeing such crystal clear lake in front of her, such a vast beauty was hidden away.

"Jamie, how did you find this place?" she said as she turned around to him.

"I used to go here with some of my friends in medical school to relax during the exam, I though this might be a good place to take you on our first date."

Hearing the word 'first date' the girl became reserved and turned away from Jamie gaze. They have been out so many times, yet this is the first time indeed that they are alone together. She was so out of place that she felt everything was a dream.

As they were closing by the lake, Jamie stops and got down. He then reached out his hand to help the girl down. She was in a dilemma of whether to go down or stay on the horse. In the end, she reached out to the man's hand, holding it tightly and got down off the horse.

"Ange, can I ask you something?" the man said, watching the girl gazing at the lake.

She turned around and unexpectedly their eyes meet, "Sure?"

"What do you think of me? Who am I to you? In all honesty."

Seeing the man's expression, she could not help it, but turn away and went closer to the horse. "Hmm, your Jamie. My Jamie, my best friend who have accepted me for who I am, who care for me. I've always regarded you as my best friend since then but..."

When the girl turned around and saw the man depress face, she realizes she must have said something that have upset him. "You've always been my first love."

When the man heard the words coming out the girl, he was totally surprised that until now she still think of him that way.


"You've always been the person I adore the most, the one who I wish to be with but I know where I stand and I won't force myself in anything I already know the ending. But I'll always think of you that way..."

The man's body moved on its on and grab the girl and embrace her. He tightly hugged her as he felt the warm feeling inside. He was so happy that he wishes to do more, but for now it's better to take things slowly.

The girl was left to wonder, "Jamie?"

"Don't worry, I won't let you go..."
