Drake could not hold himself anymore😳😳, All he could see was Joy standing in so💖😶 close to him eyes closed and looking so beautiful. 💖Drake leans forward and held Joy's hand and kissed her.

When Joy felt Drake lips on her lips💖💋, she opened her eyes😳😳, she was stunned😳, she could not move, Drake was holding her💕, Joy tried to push Drake away but Drake held her hand more tightly, the Feelings that she has for Drake could not let her stop him anymore💕, and she just closed her👀 eyes and kissed him back💋.

Drake couldn't believe when Joy kissed 💋👀him back, he looked at Joy💕💕, whose eyes were closed, and then he just can't hold himself, he kissed Joy deeply💋💋💖, he kissed her passionately💖💋💏 and Joy could not push him away💖, she was so lost in his love💕 and her feelings, she too, kissed 💏💏💋💖him deeply.

He held her waist 💖and then her face with both of his hand kept kissing💋💏💕 her and he pushed her to the wall while kissing💋💋💖 her, he put his one hand on the wall and the other holding her face💖, he was kissing💋💖 her so passionately, so deeply💖💕, they were lost in each other love😍. they kept kissing 💕like they were so mad in love with each other and couldn't wait any longer.

They were breathing heavily, they could feel each other's heavy breathing, Drake separated his lips from Joy's lips💖, but they could still feel each other's heavy breath💏, their eyes were closed, Drake opened his eyes and looked at Joy with love and compassion whose eyes were still closed, he was flustered he could not say anything, he just kept looking at Joy in the hope maybe she might say something now.

But Joy did not open her eyes, she just turned, opened her eyes and went straight to her room and shut the door hurriedly. she did not say a word to him and just left.

Drake could not say anything to stop Joy, he did not know what he should say to her, he was confused, he was flustered.

" Ahhh!!!! What did I just Do😣😣😣? did I just Kiss her😳😳? Ahhhh😳😳!!!! I am doomed, What am I gonna do now? How can I kiss her, I didn't even tell her that I knew she likes me, And I just kissed her, Ughhh!!!!!!😣😣😣 Drake, how could you be that stupid? and I did not even say anything and just let her go to the room, What she would be thinking? Ahh!!! Drake, you are an Idiot", wondered Drake and sat on the couch holding his head in restlessness.

Joy went inside the room, her heart was racing too, It was pounding, she could not believe she kissed him💏.

" What the hell was I thinking😣? How could I kiss him back😳, Even if he was high on emotions and could not control himself💏, I shouldn't have kissed him back, Ugh!!!!!! Joy, you are doomed😣😣, What were you thinking, you did not even know if it was me who Embrey was talking about, Ah!!!!! How I am gonna face him now? wondered Joy with breathing heavily.

They both couldn't sleep that night, they just spend their night by turning on the bed.

The next morning Joy woke up early and finished all the household chores, prepared breakfast and went out before Drake woke up, she was trying to avoid him after what happened last night.

Drake woke up in the morning but he did not saw Joy in his room cleaning like she always did.

He took shower and came out, He looked for joy around the house but she was not there. As Drake went to the dining table, there was a note.

" I am going out to look for a place, breakfast is on the table, Bye, have a good day"

Drake had his breakfast and then left for his work.

Drake knew Joy was trying to avoid him after what happened, He too, could not understand how he is gonna explain Joy Everything, would she even listen to him.

Drake was restless, he was thinking about last night, he could not focus on his work.

" I can't handle this, I need to talk to someone, but who?" wondered Drake.

And then he thought maybe Embrey could give him any advice🤔. Drake went to meet Embrey, she was working on the 13th floor.

Drake saw her and ran to her and asked, "Hey!! Embrey? do you have some time? I need to talk to you.

Embrey looked restless Drake and smiled, " Hey!! What happened? you look so restless, Did something happen?" asked Embrey.

"Please Come with me now? I need to talk to you, Embrey Please?" said Drake.

"Okay, Okay, but what is it? Drake? What is so urgent?" asked Embrey as she comes out with Drake.

Drake held her and hand took her to his office and shut the door.

" Ahhh!!! 🙄🙄🤔Drake, what is it? Why you are so restless" asked Embrey as she sits on the couch.

" Embrey. Please help me. I don't know what I should do now? I can't understand." said Drake wandering from here and there.

" Will you stop wandering around like crazy and tell me what had happened, Drake?" said Embrey as she looked at him.

Drake stopped and came near Embrey, and said," Embrey Last Night after you and peter went home, Something happened."

Embrey looked a little worried, she asked, " Something happened? What? Is Joy Okay?"

Drake looked so nervous, he looked at Embrey and said, " I sort of kissed her last night."

Embrey was stunned😲😲 when she heard this, she looked at him in surprise😲 and asked," What? did you kiss her💋😲? How? I .. mean 🙄how did that happen? Did you tell her about your feelings to her?"

Drake looked down nervously and said," No, I did n't tell anything, I was." said Drake.

But Embrey interrupted him and asked " What ? you did not tell her, and you kissed her, how does that happen? huh?😲😕"

" Drake rubbed😳😣😣 his head and said, " Ahh!!! I was helping her with the dishes, I was thinking about what you said about telling her everything and then suddenly our Hands rubbed, and I looked at her, she was looking at me, and my head was wondering about how to tell her, it was a beautiful moment and I just sort of lost control over my feelings and I Kissed her😣😣."

Drake looked so troubled while telling this to Embrey, but Embrey was more shocked about what he did last night😕.

Embrey tries to understand the situation, she looked at Nervous Drake and asked, " Then, What did Joy do? did she push you away? was she angry?"

" No, Embrey, that's what surprised😳😳 me the most, Even though she tried to push me away at first, but then she did not resist and kissed me back💋", said Drake.

Embrey looked a little relieved and said," then, what's the problem, that means she liked you."

Drake rubbed back of his hand and said," you don't understand Embrey, after we kissed💏, she did not even look at me👀, and just went to her room, she did even say a word, and in the morning she left early to avoid me, What am I supposed to do now? Embrey, Please help me?"

Embrey smiled 🙄🤭at Drake's silly behaviour and said, " Ahh!!! you are so dumb🙄😕, you kissed her, without even telling her how you feel and now you expect her to talk first and say something to you, it must have been so sudden, she must be stunned when you kissed her, she needs time to figure out what happened Drake."

" Ugh!!! You are right Embrey, how can I be so dumb, I should have said something, but I was just standing and looking at her, She must be thinking I would say something, Ahhh!!! Embrey, I ruined everything🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️, what I would now?" said Drake in a troubled tone.

Embrey came near Drake and patted his back and said," Hey, it's okay, Now, Don't make her wait anymore and tell her how you feel, She would understand because she likes you too."

Drake looked at Embrey and smiled, " you are right, Embrey, I am gonna tell her everything today", said Drake and hugged Embrey for helping him out.

It was noon, Drake couldn't wait for any longer, he decided to go and meet Joy right now, he took some flowers on the way to his house.

As Drake reaches home, he went in and looked around the house but Joy still has not come home yet. he got a little worried😟😟, he went to Joy's room and checked if her bag was still there or not.

" Her bag is here, then why has not she home yet? it's past noon, Drake waited for an hour, but Joy still didn't come, he was worried, what if she left because of what happened last night.

Drake could not just sit and wait, he decided to go out and check. Drake went out, he checked nearby areas, he went to the grocery store, and few other places she could be, She was not even answering his calls😟😟😨.

An hour passed Drake was worried, he could not find Joy anywhere? after looking for her for an hour, Drake went home looking so dull and sad with worriedness over his face and regret that he should have said something last night.

As Drake opened the door, he saw Joy in the kitchen working. Drake was so relieved after seeing Joy in front of him.

As Joy saw Drake, she looked at him and said, " Drake, I wanted to talk to you about, but before she could say anything else, Drake went to her and hugged her tightly💖💕.

Joy looked stunned, she couldn't move, she was standing still. Drake looked at Joy and said, " Why weren't you answering my calls? I got so worried, I thought you left Joy."

Joy just looked at Drake and said, " My phone battery died and I forgot to Charge it, Drake, I need to tell you something."

Drake looked at Joy with a hope that she might wanna talk about last night.

" I too have something to tell you Joy, but you first," said Drake as they sat on the couch.

" Joy looked kinda sad, she looked at him and said, " I found a place to live, and the rent is also cheaper, and they say, I could move in there tomorrow."

When Drake heard this, he was kinda Stunned, he looked at Joy in dismay, he was sad.

" If she likes me, then why would she move out, is that because of what happened last night? but Embrey said Joy too, likes me, then Why she is leaving me" wondered Drake.

Drake could not say anything, he just kept looking at her.

" You too, had something to tell, what is it?" asked Joy.

Drake held himself together and said, "Umm... nothing, it's nothing important."

Joy said okay and then stood up tp went to the room. Drake stopped her and asked, "Is that because of what happened between us last night, Joy?"

Joy stopped, she turned and looked at Drake and said, " what happened last night was because we had little wine🍷🍷 and we were high on emotions, Drake that does not mean anything."

" What? It does not mean anything? Joy, you know, We know, what happened last night was not because we were drunk🍷, but because we wanted to do it? and because" said Drake but Joy did not listen to him and went to her rooms and shut the door.

Drake was heartbroken, and so was Joy, she was hiding her feelings, but why?

Joy has tears in her eyes😢, she was heartbroken too, she did not mean what she said to Drake, Joy sat on the bed and thinking," Mama, please help me, Mama, please tell me, What to do? I am scared Mama, Please help me, Mama?"

Drake sat on the couch, he looked sad, he lied on the couch and tears fell from the corner of his eyes. he could not understand if Joy likes her then what is holding her back now.

Joy Slept Crying, she had Dream, She was sitting on a bench and everything around her was covered in white. there was no one, she was alone out there crying and calling her Mama and suddenly her Mama came and called her name out.

" Joy, See, Mama's here, look at me Joy," said Mama as she sat beside her and caressed her. Joy looked at her Mama and said, " Mama, Mama you are here, I missed you so much Mama, Why you left me all alone out there? I need you, Mama, I need you."

Mama wiped Joy's tears and said, " Hey, my little angel, I am sorry I left you, I should have waited for you to say goodbye, But you are not alone Baby, you have someone, who loves more than anyone could."

" But I don't know mama, What I should do, I am scared," said Joy as she hugged her mama.

"Hey!! My angel, you have lived enough for others until now, but now its time to think about yourself, Angel, and do you know what you should do? just listen to your heart, Okay?" said Mama and she just disappeared.

Joy woke up suddenly and looked around the room to find her Mama but it was a dream. A dream that could change everything.

The next morning, Drake was waiting for Joy outside the room😞, he could not sleep all night.

Joy packed her bag and came outside, She saw Drake who was waiting for her.

"Okay, then, I would leave now, I have asked Mrs lee in the neighbourhood for a housekeeper, she said she would send one by tomorrow, so you don't have to worry about that," said Joy as she starts to leave without even looking at him🙄.

Drake couldn't just watch her leaving😣😣, he clenched his fist 😣and asked her to stop and said, " do you really have to leave😢? can't you stay here😟?"

" joy turned and said avoiding his gaze🙄, " Isn't that something we had talked about earlier, we had a deal once I get a place, I would move out, And there's no reason for me to stay here, Drake😔😒."

" Stay for me💕, Isn't that reason enough for you to stay💖? Joy? Can't you stay here for me?" said Drake in dismay😔.

Joy looked at Drake and asked," No, I can't Drake, and Why should I😶😶?"

Drake looked at Joy, he knows if he didn't say anything now then he might never get a chance.

Drake looked at Joy and shouted," Because I love Joy, I always had, and I know you Like me too, so please don't leave, just stay with me, Please?"

As Joy heard this, she looked stunned😳 but she did not want Drake to notice it and said," No, I don't like you Drake😞, I never had."

Drake looked so angry 😤when Joy said that he clenched his fist and went near Joy, Joy took a step back and looked at him back.

" Then why did you kissed me back💋, When I kissed you💖, why you did not push me away and got angry on me? huh? Why Joy? Why?" asked Drake in anger, pain and love for Joy😞😔😢.

Joy couldn't look at him, she turned and said, " I told you it was because we were drunk😔, Drake and its nothing else."

Joy was holding her tears, she wanted to leave but Drake held her hand and stopped her.

"Why you are lying to me😞😔, Joy? Why? I know you like me💖, and I know you are lying😢 , how can you say it was nothing Joy, I felt what you were feeling when I kissed you, Why you are doing this to me, Joy? Why?" said Drake in anger and he hit the wall with his fist.

" What his holding you back now😡, what are you so scared 😔😔of? Why can't you just accept my love 😔😞😞and give me chance Joy, Why? huh?" said Drake in pain and turned away.

Drake was heartbroken💔, why Joy just can't accept his love for her, Why she is doing this to him, Drake couldn't just control himself and he hurt himself.

Joy couldn't see the person she likes in pain😞😔, Joy couldn't control her tears anymore. she could feel his pain too, Tears fell from her eyes, she yelled, " Because I am scared😣😣, I am scared, Drake."

Joy broke down in tears😭😭, Drake looked at Joy crying😭, he went near her, held her💕 and asked, " What are you scared of Joy? What is it? please tell me? Joy, Please😢?"

What was Joy scared of? She likes him then why she won't stay with him? What is her fear? Would she tell him and would Drake make her realise how deep is his love for her?
