Isa smiled looking at the boy and kneeled her head too on the shelf , now looking at the boy"s face directly. "I will ask you this tomorrow morning, when you will be back to your poised self and I will be eating like a horse!"
Jacob could now smell the girl"s perfume again, mixed with the vodka"s smell. "I like that too! You look cute when you eat!" He looked in the girl"s deep blue eyes.
There faces were now just a few inches away, they both constantly looked into each other"s eyes.
The bartender looked at them, smiling happily. "Even if the next morning you tell me, that you guys don"t love each other, I will not believe you both!" He whispered very slowly, not disturbing them.
Every on-looker was smiling looking at them. They looked like two drunkard lovers, who simply can"t take their eyes off each other.
"You are not so bad either Jacob! Infact I have thought what I want from you, for winning the first challange!" Isa picked up her head instantly.
Jacob too picked up his head and looked at the girl in curiosity. "Tell me! I can do anything!" He smiled looking at the girl.
Isa looked towards her left and right, to see if their were people around them and thus bent closer to the boy, making sure no body else listens. Jacob"s eyes fell once again on her plunging neckline and he instantly averted his gaze. He could not feel like this, specially at this moment. What if he does something stupid to offend the girl, he thought and instantly took his eyes back at her face.
The girl"s face was once again close to his face and she held his hands softly, smiling at him. "I will not be there to always uplift your mood Jacob. There maybe times, when you have to handle the situations all alone. You have to promise me that, you will never give up on life. No matter, how much your heart breaks but you will be strong. Life is meant to live to the fullest, even at hard times. Promise?"
Jacob fell silent for a while, not saying anything at all. It was hard to promise this! Really hard! He was broken from inside, and it will take him lots of time to revive back.
Isa looked in his eyes, deperately, waiting for the promise.
Jacob let out a big sigh looking at her hopeful face and held the girl"s hand tightly. He then smiled at her warmly. "Ohk! I promise this to you! I will never give up! If I ever try to, this bottle will remind me of the promise!" Jacob pointed at the wooden box, gifted by Isa.
