Christmas is coming. I could feel a shift in the air.
<div>
<div>
The coffee shop in front of our building was getting decorated with Christmas Tree. A snowman stood on the front porch and now we have new furniture that my sis forced me to buy from her online store.
<div>
<div>
Did I mention my sister is a marketing manager for one of the top furniture companies in the US?
<div>
<div>
I could see Nancy preparing her salon for the day. Wreaths were being decorated all around the street. I could even see Mrs. Smith preparing her small gift store. She recently got cheap gifts from the Vintage collection. I am sure this year, she is gonna be paying for that pottery class that she always wanted to go to. I smiled seeing her cleaning the front waiting area of her shop.

<div>
Nashville is a very small town. It won''t requirebeen spent
<div>
<div>
Where the hell is Jonathan? I forgot completely that I came here to visit him. Where the hell is he?
<div>
<div>
"Janey?" A harsh voice called my name. I turned and saw Jonathan standing in front of me in a black blazer. His hair was combed properly
<div>
<div>
Now Brooklyn has become my home. I left Nashville a few months back and now I am working as a waitress in a famous coffee shop in the city.
<div>
<div>
"What?" he asked as he saw me laughing at him.
<div>
<div>
"I am not laughing to mock you but seeing the fact that you are well prepared for the day. Are you the same Jonathan I know who doesn''t wake up before 9?" I said. I looked at him from head to toe. The boys look good in blazers too.
<div>
<div>
"You know I was finally going to ask someone special.." he stopped in mid.
<div>
<div>
He left in midair. I can fill this for him... that special person is Lily, whom Jonathan met at the Literary Festival the previous month
<div>
<div>
That felt a little out of place. I have been with Jonathan most of my life and people around us always thought we are both gonna be with one another someday
<div>
<div>
If he goes left, I go left too.
<div>
<div>
If he goes right, I go right too.
<div>
<div>
Wherever he goes, I have been always with him. You know not to like his sibling or friend. But more than that.
<div>
<div>
Everyone in this town knows how much Janey likes Jonathan but this idiot doesn''t know about it. Acts like he never thought about it.
<div>
<div>
"What do you think? Am I okay?" he asked. I could see he was nervous.
<div>
<div>
I may like him secretlysilently
<div>
<div>
"What do you think about these flowers?" he asked again.
<div>
<div>
I looked at the Carnations. Those were the ones which I like a lot.
<div>
<div>
"Don''t you think it should be roses? I asked.
<div>
<div>
"Why would I buy roses when my girl like Carnations?"
<div>
<div>
I looked up at him and could see his secretive smile.
