When Ray reached his hotel room he was as angry as he ever has been. He was so mad at Neela for doing this again. He could not go through these emotions again. He was sitting on the bed when his phone rang. He was hoping it was Neela but, when he looked it his phone he saw it was the last person he needed to speak to.
"Hello"
"Merry Christmas Ray."
"Merry Christmas Katey, how are you?"
"I'm Fine but why didn't you tell me you where in Chicago."
"I'm sorry I came to see Neela, but I am leaving today."
"Oh god Ray not again"
"What do you mean by that?"
"Neela again. For how long are you going to keep pining for her?"
"Katey don't start, I already told you I love Neela and I want to be with her."
"Okay, okay Ray I understand don't get all up tight. So why are you leaving today?"
"To make a long story short I don't want mom alone for Christmas, I only came to visit."
Ray did not want to tell Katey about what had happened with Neela.
"Listen what time is your flight?"
"At 3pm Why?"
"Well, why don't I just meet you at the airport and we can have lunch before you go."
"Alright, I will meet you there. Bye."
After ray had left the apartment the only thing Neela could do is start to cry uncontrollably.
"What have I done again? Why can't I commit to Ray with my whole heart? I am so pathetic."
Neela started to think about all that Ray said to her.
"You know what Neela I will I am tired of this I keep falling for the same bullshit with you; I can't do this any more. If that is what you want fine, go think, pray, meditate whatever you do to make you feel better. But I can not do this with you anymore. 3 years is long enough. Goodbye"
It would play over and over like a bad record. Neela started to realize I love this man and I am not going to that place I was in so long ago. Neela decided to get ready get her things and head straight to that airport.
"Hey Ray baby."
"Hey
Katey."
Katey hugged Ray and would not let go, he had to ease his way from her until she let go.
"Ray you look great, the last time I saw you was about 3 months ago."
"Yeah it was 3 months ago and I have one question to ask you."
"Yeah, what?"
"why didn't you tell me about Neela?"
"Neela, is this why I am here for to talk about her?"
"Katey stop the bullshit, you never told me she was in an accident."
"Ray, you had other more important things to deal with. You had to take care of yourself. You could not worry yourself about her drama. She brought it on herself. I personally think she deserved it."
"What? She deserved it. Are you crazy no one deserves going through something like that?"
"Oh I guess you forgot your own situation."
"Katey, I did this to myself, no one did this to me."
"It was Neela that did this, she is a selfish bitch."
"No, I think I know who the selfish bitch is now."
Neela had just arrived at the airport she had the ticket Ray had brought her. Ray left her ticket in the house probably to let her know that if she changed her mind the offer still stood. She check in her bags and headed over to the waiting arrive. When she was about to turn the corner she spotted Ray and Katey.
'What the hell is she doing here?' Neela thought. Neela got a little closer so she could hear their conversation. She did not want them to see her so she hid behind a pillar, just inches away. She was able to hear everything they said to each other.
"Ray you are so stupid, she never has done anything for you."
"No, Katey that is where you are wrong, the man I am today Neela, helped me be that. When I found out about her accident, it gave me the motivation to get better. She is the woman who has my heart. You are a friend and based on what you said I don't even want that, now I think you should leave."
"Fine Ray but you'll see one day I am the one who should be with you not her."
As soon as Katey finished her statement Neela appeared from behind the pillar.
"Thank you Katey for the vote of confidence I think Ray and I will be quite happy together."
Ray was in shock to see Neela standing there he was sure she couldn't come, but she did.
He had a big smirk on his face, and when Katey looked at him she knew then that her sick fascination about being with Ray was over. She had lost this war; she knew no matter what she did, what games she played Ray would never stopped loving Neela.
