The Billionaire's Past novel Chapter 9

CHAPTER 9

Time goes by.

Aliyah and Atif never noticed that they continuously communicating with each other even though they both have doubts and hesitations to communicate with each other.

And sometimes they both want to stop sending messages to each other.

Why?

For Aliyah don’t trust stranger.

Also she believes that in this life everything is temporary;

“Emotions, thoughts, people, scenery; everything is bound to end; Do not become attached.”

For Atif it’s just a waste of time to chat with strangers because he is a very busy person.

He has a limited free time or almost sometimes no free time at all.

But in spite of their reasons they found themselves still chatting with each other.

They can’t helped it.

Until they became friends.

When Atif showed kindness to Aliyah,

Aliyah learn to trust him even though he is just a stranger.

Aliyah consider him as a friend.

It’s just because Atif noticed that there is something wrong with Aliyah he decided to become Aliyah’s friend.

Atif knows that Aliyah needs someone, a friend who will listen to her.

He noticed it when Aliyah asked him,” Can we be friends?”

Without hesitation Atif answer her “Sure.”

And from that moment, when Atif said that they are friends Aliyah believes on his word. Hoping their friendship would last.

Aliyah find a special friend in Atif.

Atif is still a stranger even though they are friends.

For there’s no chance for them to see each other in person, Aliyah can tell him her problems without hesitation.

Because sometimes it’s easy to tell your problems and secrets to stranger rather than to those who knew you.

Atif understand her, always giving her good advice on how to cope up with her problems.

Atif found time to be her friend.

Even in his busy schedule he found time to reply on every message of Aliyah knowing that Aliyah will always wait for his reply.

Unknowingly Aliyah slowly falling to Atif.

And vice versa.

Atif slowly falling for Aliyah but he ignore his own feelings.

For what he knew is; “Aliyah is married”.

Because Aliyah lie to him from the start.

Lie that she can’t take it back for her fear that Atif would not trust her anymore; she stand for it; that she have a husband and kids even though she is single.

“Anyway Atif wouldn’t find out that I’m telling lies for we don’t have mutual friends. Besides there’s no chance that we can see each other in person.” Aliyah told herself.
