An invisible thread connects two people who are destined to meet, regardless of time, place, or circumstances. The thread may stretch, get tangled but it will never break.



Eight Years Later.

Elevator doors dinged open. He walked out of the elevator wearing well fitted suit. Earbuds in his ears, mobile phone in his hand.

"Yes. Don't worry about it Mr. Frank it won't affect our deal. I'll take care of it."

"Mr. Olsen!" Serena rushed towards him juggling some files, a notepad and a cup of coffee.

"Ms. Johns."

"Good Morning Mr. Olsen. These are the files you requested for and this is your black coffee!" Serena was his all time overly excited secretary. It gets annoying sometimes but she was good with the work.

"Morning Ms. Johns and thank you." He took the coffee cup from her hands and continued walking towards his office while sipping some. "Somehow the news of us getting threats got out and Mr. Frank's worried about it affecting our deal."

"But sir, those are petty we get them all the time." Serena remarked furrowing her eyes and pushing up her glasses.

"Yes we do but this time we can't resolve it and it's in media's eye. They have cooked up all different types of stories regarding this."

"Yeah yeah!" Serena exclaimed laughing. "I heard one, they said that you faced same problem and you were kidnapped and threatened to death in your high school days! So funny!" Hearing that he stopped suddenly causing Serena to bump into him. "Ouch." She cried rubbing her nose.

"Where did they get this from?" Jay Olsen gritted through his teeth.

"Huh! I don't know from some cliché Wattpad story!" She chuckled shaking her head.

"Wattpad?" Jay questioned.

"Oh it's an app where you can read millions of stories of all different genre, you can write your own too-"

"Never mind. Just get me a list of best security service in America. Hiring them might help us from losing more clients." Jay said cutting off Serena before she goes on blabbering stuffs for an hour.

"Yes sir. First I'll drop this files into your office." She nodded her head following his orders.

"I'll take them." He said taking the files from her hands. "And yeah, cancel all the meetings and appointments after lunch. I'll be going home to visit my parents and I don't think I'll be able to come back from there today." He informs imagining his mother chopping of his balls if he ever muttered out the word leaving before tomorrow. He shuddered shaking his head.

"Sure sir!" He nodded and walk back to his office.

"Should I call her and inform that I am coming?" He thought as he opened his office door. "Nah, she'll just overwork herself and prepare ten different types of meals. I'll just surprise her." He nods coming to a good conclusion. "That's done with, now I should think about this threat situation." He sighed plopping down on his office chair.

"How the hell they came to know about that? It happened eight years ago and dad had asked them to keep it private." He grumbled rubbing his forehead. "Ahh those namesake police officers, give them little money and they will vomit out everything." He growled clenching his fist. "Whatever I'll have to finish all work before leaving for home, cause I'm pretty sure I won't be able to do or talk about it at home." He muttered switching on his computer.

"Let's check mails." He whispered to himself checking the mails. "Why are so many spams here? Delete. Delete. Delete and Delete. What's this? E! News would like to interview you. You are one of the top most wealthiest bachelors. We would like to know about your secret to this blah blah.. I don't have time but I'll think about it." Though he is a billionaire now, his habit of talking to himself hasn't changed one bit.

"What's next? Hmmm, how did they got this email id, there's so many useless stuff I keep getting. I really need better security." He muttered deleting all useless emails. He was about to close the email box but the word starred caught his eye. It only contained one email. The email from her. He clicked it open.

*Flashback*

"Come on you slowpokes, we are taking pictures!" Rina shouted waving her hand calling over Jay and Marcus.

"Let's go Jay." Marcus said pulling Jay with him.

"Okay guys, huddle up!" Rina said extending her selfie stick. "Okay, on count of three say cheese. One, two, three! Cheese!"

"Cheese!!!!" Everyone shouted as flash went off capturing the moment.

"Ahh it's nice one! This would have been better if Giara and Paul would have been here." Rina pouted looking at the picture.

"Yeah, where did she disappeared to?" Alex asked leaning his arm on Rina's shoulder. They both looked at Jay for answers. Jay just clenched his fists and avoided their questioning eyes.

"Umm, she had to go back home due to some family problems." Marcus answered for Jay. He unknowingly patted Jay's shoulder trying to comfort him. Marcus knew how hard it was for Jay to talk about Giara after she straight up left him without informing anything.

"Yo! You guys are attending the party right?" Lucas shouted.

"Yeah! We'll be there!" Alex shouted waving him off.

"Umm you guys go ahead, I'm not feeling good, I'll just take a raincheck on this one." Jay said and walked off.

"What's going on with him?" Rina asked furrowing her eyebrows.

"Nothing. I'll be back guys." Marcus and followed Jay. "Dude seriously?" He asked catching up to him.

"What?"

"All you gonna do is mope around now?" Marcus asked but he got no response. He got frustrated. "Whatever! Do whatever you want!" He shouted leaving Jay. It had been like this since she left. To some point Marcus wanted to hate Giara for doing this to Jay but he knew she had a reason.

Jay as usual got into his car not before informing his parents that he's leaving. They had suggested to have a celebrating supper but he refused and drive off to his usual place. Their place.

He parked his car to side took the beer carton before climbing off and walking in dodging the branches of tree. He smiled at the setting sun. Climbing on the log he settled and open a beer can.

"Cheers to me on graduating!" He shouted and sipped the beer. "Ahh." He said gulping down the cold beer. He was enjoying himself looking at the setting sun, beautiful orange sky.

*beep beep*

"Huh." He took out his phone. He had gotten an email from [email protected]. Furrowing his eyebrows he opened it.

Dear Bratty,

Congratulations on finally graduating high school! I hope you are happy and partying hard. And I also hope Marcus graduated too. I know while reading this you will be seething red with angry that I straight up left without any message and now I have audacity to appear after so many months. But that's fine, it's not like I care. I like irritating and riling you up ;) Just kidding.

I just wanted to let you know that I am fine now. I know you hate me but I also know that you are worried about me so don't worry, I had just few scratches and a fractured arm, nothing major. It's fine now, just few exercises and I am back to beating asses. Jay, when I say don't worry about me I really mean it. You don't have to search for me okay. My job is done I am supposed to disappear, it's in the contract that we sign before getting into any case. So please don't try to find me okay. I know you did, you went to hospital, the house so don't even try to deny it.

I know why are you trying to find me. Jay you need to understand that no matter what we feel about each other, we don't belong together. Our worlds are totally different. And I don't want you to ruin everything for you. Jay I am already ruined, even if I wanted to lead a normal life I won't be able to. So I don't really want you to spoil your life looking for me. Just lead a happy life, achieve your dreams. And maybe, if destiny wants, then we will meet in future. Take care yourself okay? Be careful, if you get any threats again then, then don't hire a female bodyguard this time, male will do. And also tell Marcus that I miss him, Rina and Alex too. Tell them that they were and are the best friends I ever had. And I miss you.

Yours....
She-man


"You are stupid! I hate you!" Jay shouted at his phone wiping his tears. "And I miss you too." He whispered.

*End of Flashback*

Jay tried writing her back after that but it said the email address was wrong. After that email he never got any message or anything from her. That was last he heard from her.

"Jay why is that Johnny still here!?" Marcus burst into Jay's office. Jay quickly slammed his laptop shut.

"Mark! She is my secretary of course she would be here." Jay answered.

"What were you doing? You were reading her email again right?" Marcus asked plopping down on the chair.

"How's Sophia doing?" Jay avoiding his question.

"How would I know?! I don't even know where is she? And I don't even care anymore." He huffed crossing arms. Jay sadly smiled at him. They were so happy together. Marcus had been by her side after whole Donati scenario happened, she was so heartbroken. But Marcus was there by her side. They were happy until graduation, Sophia decided she didn't wanted to stay here, she signed up for university in Geneva. And from what I heard she is working for WHO. Marcus suggested long distance relationship but she refused telling she didn't want to tie Marcus in this bond, when she knew that she won't be coming back here. Marcus was hurt but he didn't show it, he respected her decision, but somewhere between he still cares for her.

"You should move on Mark." Jay said.

"Look who's talking." Marcus snorted.

"Whatever! And what is your problem with Ms. Johns huh? Stop bullying her." Jay glare at him.

"It's other way around! She keeps bullying me every time I am here! She's that grumpy nerd who sits in front of you during exam and refused to tell you answers!" He shouted slamming his fist on the table. "She even threatened me Jay!!!" Marcus cried.

"Ahem!" Someone cleared it's throat from behind. Both of them turned towards the voice. Serena stood glaring at Marcus, her strange black eyes burning holes in Marcus.

"Look, Look she's doing it again. She is burning holes in me! Save me Jay!" Marcus whisper shouted ducking down. Jay just rolled eyes at his best friend's childishness.

"Ms. Johns what is it?" Jay asked motioning her to come in. She scowled at Marcus and turned towards Jay with a smile.

"Sir, here's the list of best security services. There's five of them. Should I explain further or leave it you?" She asked.

"Huh? Security, why?" Marcus asked looking at Jay in question.

"I'm facing some problems so I need to hired one." Jay answered nonchalantly and turned towards Serena. "Who's the best among those five?" He asked.

"SSA. Security Service Agency." She answered.

"Huh? What a weird name." Marcus said.

"It's the best of best agency sir. Their service is best. They also provide security to President. I can book you an appointment with them tomorrow." Serena informed.

"Hmm. Do that." Jay nodded.

"Yes sir. And I have cleared your schedule after lunch. You have a meeting in ten minutes and you are free after that."

"Thank you Ms. Johns you can also leave after lunch." Jay said. Serena nodded and left not before glaring at Marcus.

"Why you need to clear your schedule?" Marcus asked after Serena had left.

"I'm gonna visit mom and dad." Jay answered getting up and collecting some files.

"I wanna come too!!" Marcus exclaimed. "It's been days since I tasted Aunt Rose's delicious food." He said dreaming about delicious lasagna.

"Don't you have work to do? You are CEO Mark." Jay said walking towards door.

"Exactly! I am the boss so I can do whatever I want." Jay just shook his head.

"I'll be leaving at twelve." Jay said and walked towards the meeting room.

"Okay! I'll be waiting here!" Marcus shouted.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

"Aunt Rose look who's finally home!" Marcus shouted as soon as he walked into the Olsen's mansion.

"Mark honey why are you back so early?" Rosalia Olsen walked into living room. "Jay?! You are home." She rushed and pulled her child in her arms.

"I missed you mom." Jay whispered snuggling in her neck.

"I missed you too sweetie."

"And what do you mean by back so early?" Jay asked pulling back and looking at Marcus with questioning eyes.

"Oh he was here in the morning for breakfast." Rosalia answered.

"Hehe." Marcus grinned. "Aunt Rose we are hungry! What's the menu?"

"I prepared lasagna. You said you wanted to eat." Rosalia said making her way towards dinning room. "Settle down, I'll call Blake and serve you." She ordered before disappearing in kitchen.

"Master Jay you are home." George smiled greeting Jay.

"George! I missed you!" Jay exclaimed hugging him. After Jay started living alone in bachelors pad, he came to know how he was used to George, every single thing was done by George for him.

"Then you should visit more Master Jay." George said pulling back.

"Yes you should son." Blake Olsen walked towards his son and embraced him.

"Dad you should know how busy I get."

"Oh shut it you, we were in business too Jay but we some how managed both." Rosalia said setting the plates.

"Mommm..." Jay whined pouting like a baby and back hugged her.

"Okay leave the boy alone honey." Blake said. With that the family began enjoying dinner. Refreshing old memories and creating new. After lunch everyone were gathered in garden enjoying deserts.

*ring ring*

"Excuse me. I have to take this." Jay excused himself and received the call. "Yes, Ms. Johns?"

"Sorry to disturb you sir but I got an appointment with the SSA in morning at 8 o'clock so I decided to let you know personally." Serena informed.

"That's fine and thank you. You will be joining me there."

"Yes sir. Have a good day." With that she hanged up. Jay walked back to everyone.

"What was it son?" Blake asked scooping a spoon full of ice cream in his mouth.

"My secretary. She was informing about the appointment with the security service." Jay answered plopping down on his seat.

"Which one?"

"SSA. Security Service Agency." Hearing that Blake choked on ice cream. "Dad! Are you okay?"

"I-I'm fine. Went down the wrong pipe." Blake said coughing.

"SSA? That's-"

"Honey can you get me more ice cream?" Blake cut Rosalia off, subtly shaking his head.

"O-oh! Oh yeah sure!" She got up and left.

"What's with you two?" Marcus raising his eyebrows and Jay nodded agreeing with him.

"Nothing's wrong." Blake said. "Ahh. I need to rest. Jay your dad's now a old man." He said quickly rushing in.

"Weird." Marcus shrugged and continued licking his now finished ice cream bowl.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

"Good morning Mr. Olsen." Serena greeted as Jay opened the car door and got in.

"Morning." Jay nodded.

"Wait!!!!" Marcus shouted as he rushed towards them. "Can you guys drop me off to my office!" Jay was about to answer when Serena cut him off.

"No Mr. Moretti. Your office is in opposite direction and we're already getting late." She said and motioned driver to start moving. Driver nodded and started moving. They could hear Marcus cursing, she just smirked evilly.

"You really do bully him." Jay said, amusement in his eyes.

"He keeps getting on my nerves." She argued.

"Oh that's just his nature." Jay chuckled. After half an hour, driver announced that they had reached the destination. Both of them climbed off and walked towards an three floored building. As soon as they walked in a well built man walked towards them.

"Hello, You must be Mr. Olsen. I am Sam Choi." He smiled offering his hand.

"Hello, nice to meet you." Jay shook his hand.

"And you must be lovely Ms. Johns." He grinned causing Serena to blush. She nodded and shyly smiled. "I am part of SSA and I'll be touring you around and then we can head to the office for signing the contract and stuff." He informed and motioned them to follow him.

"This our gym, it's for daily use." He said pointing towards the gym which was enclosed in glass walls. "Take this." He said handing them earmuffs. After they were done adjusting them, he took them inside a room which was filled with number of people shooting at metal man.

"Holy!" Serena gasped at looking at holes in every metal men's head.

"That's the dead shot! Just one bullet and your job's done!" Sam shouted over noise. "Come on!" They exited and walked by a ring. "Kickboxing, wrestling, Taekwondo." Same said pointing towards them respectively. "Now here they are trained to use various weapons, especially knives." He said pointing towards the who were flipping, twisting the knives and slashing the human dolls.

"Scary." Serena shuddered causing Sam to chuckled. Then Sam walked them to an open ground, very muddy one to be exact. There was like army of men covered in mud running around, rolling, jumping, wrestling.

"That's freestyle training, you can call it military training. They are trained to work in every condition." Sam said.

"What are you doing weak little pimps?! This how are you going to protect them! My grandma's way faster than you pussies!" A women shouted at men. She was walking around observing them. "If you keep this going you won't even hurt a tiny ant! Just having body like a elephant isn't going scare an ant! You need skills! Use not only your body but brains too!"

"Her voice, it's familiar." Jay whispered to himself.

"Wow she's a woman." Serena whispered.

"Not just a woman. She's superwoman." Sam said with a daze in his eyes. Jay rolled his eyes and turned to check his phone, it kept beeping. "Noona!!!"

'What a weird name.' Jay thought checking his phone. "What is wrong with Mark?" Jay whispered scrolling through the dozens of messages Marcus had sent.

"Mr Olsen I would like you to meet-" Jay turned around to see her standing. Her hair in a bun, feet covered in mud, sweat running from forehead to her chin.

"Giara.." He whispered her name, she widen her eyes, her mouth dropped open.

"Jay?" Her voice, the voice he longed to hear.

"Noona you know him?" Sam questioned looking at both of them, Serena doing the same. Clearing her throat Giara looked at Sam.

"Sam why don't you take our clients to meeting room, I'll freshen up and will join you." Sam frowned but nodded. She smiled at them and walked off.

"Mr. Olsen let's go." Serena nudged Jay who still staring at place where Giara stood few seconds ago. He shook his head and nodded before following Sam.

"So this where she was hiding huh?" Jay grumbled under his breath. "And Noona? Really?"

"Please have a seat. Would you like to have anything?" Sam asked looking at his clients.

"Water will be fine." Serena shyly answered. Sam nodded smiled at her.

"Mr. Olsen would like you anything?" Sam asked but Jay was busy in his own world. He was still figuring out if Giara was here or not. "Mr. Olsen?"

"Huh! No, thank
