It was a very fine weather with people out in the hustling city of New York. Everyone was minding their own business and had something to do in their busy lives. In all this hustling a girl was happily skipping on the road in her own thoughts with a beautiful smile gracing her plumpy, pink lips.
Wearing a beautiful pink knee length frock with a silver chain and a jingling bracelet a girl entered inside the gift shop. The jingling of her bracelet could be heard from far away. Her hazel eyes twinkling like shining stars and her waist length hair flowing with movements of her walking.
"So what do you want Isabella dear?" the old lady, owner of the shop asked to the girl Isabella.
She turned her head towards her and beamed at her "I want a best gift for my boyfriend, granny."
The old woman smiled at her. Isabella always visits at her shop for buying gifts for her beloved boyfriend, Chris Kane. Today is his birthday.
"How much money did you save this time my dear?" the old woman asked in utter concern.
"Not much granny, I'm saving them for last six months from my salary but I think still they are not enough." she sadly pouted.
"My dear you should think for yourself too." the old lady's forehead creased in concern.
"Yeah, I know granny that's why I work in the café so I can bear mine and Chris' expenses." Isabella said looking here and here for a perfect gift for her boyfriend.
The old woman shook her head at the sweet girl's naiveness not understanding how her boyfriend is making her work and enjoying his life on her earning. He was a worthless man at the name of boyfriend because all he does is to live at her money.
"See granny, I want to give him this. Will he like this?" Isabella suddenly asked finding a beautiful glass ball which had a beautiful couple inside it with some detailings and lighting.
"Yeah it's so beautiful my child he will surely like it." the old woman said to make her happy. But inside she knew he doesn't want her love and affection he only want her earning to spend on himself.
Isabella took out her whole savings which she collected for last six months from her earning that she saved from her own needed expenses. She handed the money to the old lady and took the gift she bought for her boyfriend.
Jumping and twirling she exited the shop. She was happy because she found a beautiful gift to give her boyfriend on his twenty third birthday.
'I told Chris I'll not come home today because I'll have a night stay with Kat at her house and now I'll surprise him with this gift.' she thought and giggled.
Happily dancing in her mind she started walking towards her apartment which was few blocks away from the cafe in which she works. She also got friends there named Natalia and Kat, but Natalia is her best friend.
Lost in her own thoughts she was heading to her apartment which she shares with Chris. They used live on the ninth floor. So she stood infront of the lift waiting for it come down. Few seconds passed of waiting, and as impatient as she was she decided to use the stairs. Jogging towards the stairs she started climbing them wanting to reach up as soon as possible.
After ten minutes of climbing the stairs she was tired as hell but was she in the mood to stop? No. She finally reached the ninth floor; a little panting and breathing heavily. She smiled when she saw the door of her apartment in front of her. All her tiredness vanished away in the air.
She jogged towards it and took out the spare keys from her little bag hanging on her left shoulder. Taking out the keys she hastily opened the door not wanting to make any noise. She tiptoed towards the living room thinking as always Chris would be playing games but found it empty. Then she checked the kitchen and balcony but he was not there also.
