Ken walked up to Gideon, who was speaking to Jess with his arm around her waist, his throat contracted painfully, his heart heavy.
'Have I lost her?'He asked himself.
"Good evening, Gideon," Ken greeted politely, offering Gideon a handshake.
Gideon was busy looking at Jess' face as he spoke when he heard Ken's voice; he had to turn his attention away from her.
"Hi, Ken. Lovely evening, isn't it?" Gideon shook Ken's hand.
Jess ignored Ken, busying her eyes by looking around the garden and seeing how people were easily conversing.
"Yes, it is, I was wondering -"
"Here you are, Darling, I thought I lost you for a second," Rachel's arm sneaked around Ken's from behind him, her head placed beside his arm.
She flashed a bright smile to Gideon and Jess, stepping closer to Ken.
Ken felt anger seep into his skin through the wind; his teeth were gritted, and his fists were balled; he turned to Rachel and glared at her.
