Jack placed his hand on her shoulder to calm her down. "Why are you crying?"
"It's just that I am so useless..." She looked at him and then hugged him, her face buried in his chest.
Jack could feel his shirt getting wet from her tears.
He moved his hand and placed it behind her head. He let her cry and didn't try to calm her down.
He knew the reason behind it was him, she cared for him and loved him, and even now she hasn't been able to forgive herself for the burglar incident.
'I have to make sure that she forgets about that incident.' He couldn't see her sadness or see tears in her eyes. He also loved her and even now when she is crying he feels a pain in his chest.
After a few minutes of her silent sobs in the car, she moved away from him and took out a handkerchief from her purse and started wiping her tears.
"I am sorry... I ruined our date even before it started." She looked at him with puffy red eyes and a regretful expression.
Jack took in a deep breath and wondered how he should calm her down and make her forget about the burglar event.
After a few monts of silence, he looked at his phone for the ti. "Are you hungry?" He asked.
"Not really." She placed the handkerchief back in her purse.
"Let's go to a hotel." He said and placed his hand over hers. He wanted to spend so personal ti with her and give her all the love he could.
He wanted to talk to her and tell her how he felt about her and a private space would be better for this kind of talk.
Sophie nodded at his words and started the car again. "Which hotel should we go to?" She asked.
Jack listened to her question and thought about the hotel where he spent ti with Elma.
It was a perfect place with luxury and comfort and even the staff was good it was also near his house.
"Turn the car around, there is a hotel nearby," Jack said and took out his phone.
Sophie nodded and moved the steering wheel around.
Jack on the other hand called Elma.
"Hey..." Her excited voice ca from the other side.
"I need your help," Jack said as he glanced at Sophie again.
"Help? What happend? Should I co to your house?" Jack could feel worry in Elma's tone.
"No, It's just the hotel we stayed in, I need a room in it." He said, he knew that Elma was a shareholder in the hotel company and that she would be able to provide them with the best service and the best room without the need for a reservation.
"The one that is near your house?" Elma asked.
"Yes..." Jack replied.
"Don't worry, just go, I will arrange everything," Elma said.
"Thanks..." Jack smiled, he was happy that Elma was eager to help.
"No worries, Just call if any problems occur," she said and turned silent. "And by the way, I already miss you so much, thanks for calling."
Jack's smile widened at her words. "Don't worry we will et soon, ok I will call you later."
"Ok bye, take care... I love you..." Elma said quickly and then hung up the phone.
Jack could imagine the blush on her face after she said the words.
Sophie looked at him with her wide eyes and turned to look ahead again.
She wondered who he was talking to, however, didn't ask him as she didn't wanna be rude.
She knew that Jack had many girlfriends and she had even seen them while they were in hospital.
Even the day she fought with him it was because of Nicole.
Soon enough they reached in front of a luxury hotel.
Sophie's eyes glimred as she looked at the big hotel however suddenly fear appeared on her face as she saw a guard stopping them at the main door.
"Jack, I think they won't let us enter, seeing our car." Sophie looked at Jack with shaful eyes.
She knew that big hotels generally don't let old or small cars enter without a reservation beforehand.
Although she overheard Jack talking to soone for reservation she wondered if he would be able to get them entry at such a big place.
"Don't worry, just drive and stop in front of him." Jack looked at the guard without any fear, he knew that Elma must have done her job by now and there shouldn't be any problems.
Sophie nodded and believed in Jack, she soon stopped her car in front of the guard.
Rolling her windows down she looked at him, Jack also moved his head and cast a glance at the guard.
"Sir, do you have a reservation?" The guard looked at both of them and said in a polite voice.
"No, we don't," Jack said.
When the guard heard their words, his face suddenly changed and then he maintained his composure again.
"Sorry, sir, but we don't allow cars without reservation, you can book a room on our website." The guard gave Jack a card.
Jack took the card and looked at it for a few seconds and then took his phone out to call Elma.
However, before he does so, suddenly a hotel staff in back clothes ran towards the guard.
Jack looked at the young guy running towards them and identified him instantly, he was the sa guy that gave him the notebook and pen the other day.
He soon reached the car and stopped to catch his breath for a few seconds.
"We are sorry sir..." He looked at Jack with a polite smile and then looked at the guard again. "Please let them enter." He said, urgency visible on their face.
Sophie looked at the events and raised her brows in surprise, she thought they would have to go back and find another hotel.
However seeing the reaction of the young staff, she could guess that Jack had called soone powerful.
She moved her head and looked at him for a few seconds, he was sitting in his seat calmly.
'I wonder If I will be ever useful to him...' She thought and looked down.
She hated herself for the fact that she had to rely on Jack for everything, he helped her with her mother's treatnt and then her college fees and then he even got shot because of her.
'I wonder if he loves as much as he used to.' She looked away lost in thought.
"Let's go..." Suddenly Jack's deep voice broke her out of her stupor.
She looked at him and then looked in front, she saw the guard standing at the side with an apologetic smile on his face.
She started the car and soon enough they were in the hotel hall.
The young guy ca in front of them and bowed slightly, "Sorry for the inconvenience sir, the guard didn't have information about you beforehand. I hope you can forgive us." The young boy said.
"No worries..." Jack said with a warm smile, he didn't wanna trouble them too much as it was sowhat his fault too as he didn't get a reservation beforehand.
The young boy nodded with a smile, he was relieved that Jack was not angry at him, he just got a call from the hotel owner and she told him about Jack.
He didn't had ti to prepare beforehand, as Jack arrived just after the call disconnected.
"Sir, let show you your room." The young boy said and helped them towards the topmost floor.
Just as he opened the door even Jack was shocked, it was an open room with many wide windows and adept lighting.
There was even a wine cabinet and a big TV, there was also a grand sofa.
Jack could tell that it was their most luxurious suite.
"Thank you." Jack looked at the boy and entered the room.
The young boy nodded and left as soon as he could, after moving so steps he sighed in relief.
Inside the room, Jack moved and sat on the big sofa, he then looked at Sophie who was standing in the middle of the place with her eyes glimring.
"Co near ," Jack said and patted the place beside him, offering her to sit.
Sophie adjusted her dress and soon ca near him, She sat and leaned her head on his shoulder.
"I don't like when you cry," Jack said suddenly after a mont of silence.
Sophie listened to him and after so ti started sobbing again as tears dripped down her eyes.
"I am sorry... I am so useless." She hugged him with both of her hands, scared that he would leave her if she let him go.
She didn't wanna be separated from him and she realised this the mont he got shot.
When she saw his blood dripping down her clothes and how he was laying lifeless in front of her, she felt that she was useless.
At that mont she couldn't even stop his bleeding even though she was a dical student.
She just lost herself to the shock.
"I said I don't like when you cry." Jack rested his hand on her chin and moved her face up to look her in the eyes.
"I love you." He said and kissed her on the lips.
Sophie on the other hand started crying even harder. "I wish I was the one that got shot instead of you..." She said suddenly.
