1 year later...

"Camila, come on let's eat."

Jayson, Tom's fiancee said to me.

"Okay coming!" I said and hung up my phone.

"Ohh sushi, Jayson's favorite!" I exclaimed with joy and both of them laughed.

"Come on let's eat," Tom said and I sat down.

I meet them both last year, we have built a friendship through the year and I loved spending time with them, I accepted their relationship and for me, they are a perfect match.

They were both very kind, and now they're married; I support their marriage, and they're beginning their own business. I haven't spoken to Alejandro since, and whenever his parents invited us to gatherings, I always declined. I wished I had a love like Tom's and Jayson's.

"Deep thoughts there Cam?" I heard tom say and I chuckled.

"Im fine. So what's your plan with the new building you bought?" I asked and took a bite of my sushi.

"Well, Jayson and I decided to establish a bakery." He replied, and I gasped at his amazing suggestion.

"Wow, that's great," I said happily.

"Congrats both of you," I said and smiled at both of them.

"Thank you for supporting us, Camila," Jayson said and I nodded with a smile,

Alejandro's P.O.V

"Come in."

I said as I heard my secretary Nessa knock on my office door.

"Babe, I missed you." She said and approached me while holding a cup of coffee,

"Here's your coffee." She said and gave me my coffee.

I took a sip and sighed and placed it down.

Camila made coffee much better. I thought to myself.

"Babe are you okay?" Nessa asked and I nodded.

she sat on my lap and tried to kiss me.

"Nessa not now," I demanded and she frowned.

"Fine, what's got you in a bad mood." She said and rolled her eyes.

My phone suddenly beeped and it was a text from Dante.

"Mr. Huxley, she is still not at home. She did, however, leave a message indicating that she would be arriving home late." He stated in his text.

I sighed in despair and frustratedly ran my fingers through my hair.

"Again? notify me when she returns home." I texted back.

Camila's P.O.V

"Well, I gotta go, Bye Jayson, Bye Tom." I say embraced both of them.

"Bye Camila." Jayson squeals and gave me a pat at the back.

"Drive safely." Tom demanded softly but seriously.

"Yes, yes, bye." I said and took my bag and waved at the them.

"Don't jinx yourself." He said and I laughed.

"I won't!" I said and opened my car door and sat inside.

I turned on my car and strated to drive.

As I was on my way home I looked at my phone and someone texted me.

I was about to pick up my phone when it fell.

I looked down the street and saw no one, so it seemed to be safe.

I reached down swiftly and was startled by a loud buzzer.

I looked up and saw myself driving into another vehicle. I hastily adjusted my car and found myself smashing into a tree.

I felt dizzy after hearing a loud crash. I felt my head and saw blood, then blacked out.

I heard sirens calling for me to open my eyes, but my eyelids were too heavy to open, and everything went black.
