Bella was happy that they were on talking and friendly terms; it didn't pass even from the notice from Jessica, Lauren's staunch supporter.

Bella was happy but it had to marred from her talks of making her believe her husband was still with that Lauren bitch .

Jacob had to talk to Lauren sometimes and that too he called in front of me ,otherwise she was going to spoil everything.

Why was Jessica hell bent on driving the point otherwise when it was not the case.

What would Jessica benefit from all this , she decided to be neutral and record whatever she was going to threaten her with next time .

She closed her eyes tightly and didn't let the tears form in her eyes, remembering Rose's words.

She was totally confused; she remembered what had happened after she had spoken out everything on the dance floor.

Bella had took heed and finally told Jacob everything after ice had broken between them.

"Will you listen if I say something Bella?" questioned Rosalie to which Bella nodded her head as 'yes'.

"Don't be like this."

"What do you mean?"

"Crying everytime when Jacob ignores you."

"Rosalie...what are you talking? "

"Don't try to deny. I saw how Jacob glared at you when you were comforting him few days ago "explained Rosalie while Bella kept mum.

" I can understand your situation. But instead of silently crying and cursing yourself, try talking to him and show him that you are strong. If you show confidence while talking to him; he will definitely start noticing you . Only then he will realize that you have changed now for the better."

"But whenever I see his anger or sadness, I feel guilty all the more for bringing this situation to him, to us."

"Now! You can't erase the past right. So stop dwelling on it and stop hurting yourself."

"I will try..."

"No ...tell me this, did Jacob even glanced at you whenever you cried?"

"He isn't even acknowledging my presence. I don't cry in front of him. Then how could he know when I cry?"

"Bella. Whatever happened that was all past. Don't let your emotions out in the form of tears.. Be strong and fight for your love, for your husband and for your life which is still in your hands to safeguard." says Rosalie which made her to think deeply.

"Hmm"

"Be brave Bella. Whenever you get a chance tell him that you don't want divorce and apologize again, honey." says Rosalie after giving her a hug and left with her brother leaving her to go her workplace .

My mom's distant cousin wished to see me and my husband. She being traditional and old fashioned lady I had to wear a saree.

I was tensed what will be Jacob's reaction to it, he was understandably displeased with my mom. We were now getting to the point of becoming close friends.

He surprisingly agreed to go with me but didn't interact much with my Mom's cousin.

When I looked at him, he averted his gaze and started looking through his phone. I tried looking outside the window seeing the new scenery. It was a nice change from seeing buildings and all.

The bus stopped and stopped at a roadside small eatery .

We ambled with the other passengers and finally found a seat

After minutes of silence, exhaling a heavy breath he looked at me and asked "Do you need something?"

I contemplated whether to share with him or not but decided to tell him "I need to use washroom."while avoiding my gaze.

I was feeling very uneasy .

"Just place your feet here and hold my hand." guided Jacob, offering his hand to me.

I did as he told and saw him already observing me with a frown.

I looked at him and saw a group of adjacent seat guys eyeing me. I again held his hands firmly as Jacob politely asked a waiter abut washroom "Excuse me, can you show the way to rest rooms?"

He started walking towards the exit with me trailing behind him, holding his hand like a kid. He then removed his hold as soon as we got near the ladies washroom.

The boy pointed towards a dark side and left the place.

When we were few feet away from the rest rooms, he stopped and said "I will wait here, you go". Nodding at him I started walking towards the rest room but heard his voice "You bought your mobile right?".

I turned around and showed him my mobile which was not noticeable as I held my saree pallu in my hand.

His concern bought a smile on lips as I slowly made my way .

I hurriedly went inside the washroom, washed my mouth and face.

Usually I throw up during bus journeys, luckily I didn't feel any sensation like that till now.

Moreover I didn't eat anything heavy since morning which might be helping me from not getting any such feeling till now.

Minutes later, when I was about to walk out of the washroom I felt nauseous and within seconds I emptied my stomach.

It took few more minutes for me to get stable and wash my mouth. I glanced at my mobile which was ringing continuously, groaning I looked at it and found Jacob's name on it.

Washing my mouth quickly, I came out with my mobile still ringing. As soon as he noticed me, he disconnected the call.

"What took you so long?" asked Jacob worried.

Before I could reply, I again felt uneasy .

Within seconds, I felt his hand on my ear and then rubbing my back. I wiped my mouth with the saree pallu and looked at him.

"Are you not used to travelling?" he asked me frowning. I couldn't stand properly as I don't have any energy left in me and with tear brimmed eyes I nodded at him weakly.

The next minute he gently surrounded his arm on my shoulder and held me protectively so that I won't fall.

Weakly I laid my head on his shoulder taking a deep breath which made my tears fall on his shoulder. He took out his handkerchief and wiped my mouth kindly.

"Better now?" asks Jacob softly after few minutes.

"Yeah"

When we reached towards our table, he made me sit and excusing himself he went to the counter.

He was asking the cashier something in between watching at me.

Feeling dizzy, I just laid my head on the table and closed my eyes.

After few minutes, I felt him tapping me on my shoulder. Slowly I lifted my head and found him holding a glass in front of me, I looked at him frowning.

Without replying, he just placed the glass in my hands and said "Drink this."

I tried to lift the glass towards my lips but my shivering hands didn't made it easy.

When I was about to lose the grip, Jacob held my hand and forwarded it towards my lips.

I looked at him helplessly with more tears forming in my eyes."Have it." said Jacob.

I took a sip and realized that it is lemon juice. Within minutes, I felt normal but still felt a little weak.

He ordered a vegetable sandwich for me and a coke for himself.

Though I didn't like to eat but had to eat a little forcibly to gain some energy.

While eating I noticed a middle aged woman who occupied the opposite table, glancing at me. When I caught her looking at me, she smiled.

Confusedly, I gave her a forced smile and turned my gaze away from her wondering if I know her before.

"Yeah, Do I know you?" I asked her frowning when she came near me after Jacob had gone to have one more coke for himself .

She laughed on seeing me frown. I then asked her how she knows about my condition.

"At the counter, I heard your husband asking for a lemon juice but this food court doesn't prepare any juices. Then I saw your husband asking for lemon pieces served in salads and made a glass of lemon juice from the little pieces of lemons." said the woman smiling broadly.

I looked at her surprised hearing her words.

"You are lucky to get such a life partner. God bless you both." saying that she left from there hurriedly to catch her bus.

I looked at Jacob who was now standing at the counter paying the bill.

He cleared his throat to gain my attention which made me come out of my thoughts.

"Bus is about to start. Let's go" said Jacob gesturing towards the door.

I nodded and stood up. He looked at me for few seconds and started walking.

I grinned realizing that he was making sure whether I can walk properly or not.

Minutes later, we settled in our seats and the bus started moving. When I was about to lay down, Jacob forwarded his hand which has a small lemon.

"Keep smelling this, you won't throw up again." said Jacob.

Nodding I took it from him, hiding my smile.
