Bye, My Irresistible Love

Helen’s POV: 

If truth be told, Phil and I were a very suitable match. We were compatible in all respects. Furthermore, I had made a good impression on his mother and vice versa. We got along like a house on fire. So being with Phil was more of a probability than a possibility. But I only allowed this liaison to drift through my mind casually. I was not yet ready to dive headlong into a new relationship. The bottom line was that although he seemed like a suitable boyfriend for me, I had no tender feelings for him. 

I admired him as a senior in the law firm and treated him as a friend. And there was nothing more Phil understood where I was coming from and was very patient. He didn‘t force or pressurize me to do anything. He continued to treat me as a student and friend. 

Whenever I needed guidance at work or help in other areas of my life, he was there for me. He never crossed the line and I felt very comfortable with him around. 

That came as a relief to me. Even a serious person like Anya began to match make between us, seeing the potential for a successful relationship. Perhaps Phil‘s attitude towards me was very clear to everyone now. Almost all the lawyers working together with us predicted that we would be together sooner rather than later. Lucy too came on board to persuade me. 

“I‘ve told you that Phil has a crush on you. You must be blind not to see it. If you don‘t give it a try, how will you know if you are made for each other?” 

“You can‘t always run away. I think Phil is a good man. He is perfect for you. Honey, be confident. It‘s time for you to move on with your life. Get a little serious.”

 “What if we go out and find we are not right for each other? Won‘t it cost us our friendship?” I asked cautiously. 

Lucy was speechless. “I asked you to give it a try. Enjoy a good relationship. But you are calculating the cost here. He not only guides you in your career, but also helps you in your daily life. Even his parents have met you. It‘s obvious that he will end up losing more if this relationship fails, not you. What are you worried about?” I shut my mouth because what Lucy said made a helluva lot of sense. It was not I who would suffer losses in this relationship, but Phil. 

After a long while, Lucy asked, “Do you still have feelings for George?” 

“No!” I answered so quickly that she must have sensed my denial. I was not a masochist. George spelled bad luck for me. I had to make every effort to stay as far away from him as possible. Otherwise there was no telling what kind of bizarre trouble I would find myself in next.
