Chapter 30 - I Am Being Decoyed
Florence was having a lot of fun while teasing Aria about how red her face was . In cases like this when his dad tried to arrange a blind date for him , he would just stay cold and drive the other party away by any means . Now he didn't want to do that , rather he just wanted to get to know her better.
' Who knows maybe she is different from those arrogant and pushy girls that try to put you in their bed on the first day of the meeting . ' thought Florence while thinking about his first blind date arranged by his dad . He met the daughter of a cosmetic company director and after eating dinner she acted as drunk and forced him to be her boyfriend . He refused then got splashed with hot steak sauce in the middle of his thighs and she even called him gay . The sauce was so hot that it hurt like hell to Florence , since then he never went on a blind date ever again .
' What a terrific memory ! ' thought Florence.
'' Are you alright ? '' asked Aria when she saw Florence's blue face .
'' I am fine , just that I was reminded of an unpleasant memory .'' said Florence .
'' Anyway ! Can I say something before we begin this blind date thing ? ''asked Aria with politeness and Florence nodded in sign of agreement .
'' The reason I came here today was because it was the only way doctor Flaubert would agree to reserve me an appointment with a high skilled doctor in Denmark . He is specialized in the field of autism and neurology . I only want to find a solution for my brother , I don't have time to take dating into consideration . So Florence I only hope that we can only be friends . '' said Aria with a firm attitude .
Florence saw that she was serious and also a girl with character . In her eyes it was clearly reflected how she felt .
'' Can I ask a question to you Aria ? ''
Aria nodded .
'' Do you know who I actually am ? '' asked Florence with a curious expression .
'' Doctor Flaubert's son and a just graduated doctor . '' said Aria a bit confused , leaving Florence dumbfounded .
'' You don't usually watch news or stay a lot on social network , am I right ? ''
'' Yes you are . I don't usually have that much of a free time and even if I did have I would like to spend it with my family especially with Aden my little brother . '' said Aria with a docile expression . Each time she was reminded of Aden her expression became warm and caring .
Aria noticed that Florence was laughing a lot and couldn't understand why .
' This feels like a deja vu situation ! Is it me or are these people insane for laughing out of nothing ?!' thought Aria .
'' You sure are interesting ! '' said Florence while laughing .
'' Okay ! I understand you don't worry . I already bought two tickets for the movie that will begin after an hour . Now that we are clear I think that we better enjoy the rest of the day without feeling nervous around each other , hang out like friends . What do you say ? '' said Florence . Aria felt relieved when hearing Florence say so .
'' Sure ! '' said Aria .
Florence was amazed from Aria's information about the medical field then she told him about her studies in France .
'Not only a nice girl but also intelligent ! My dad was right in insisting on me meeting her . How funny , I came hoping to reject her nicely without offending her but not only was I rejected , I am even being decoyed by her ! She isn't a really sexy woman but I don't understand why .....' though Florence while listening to Aria .
While Aria and Florence were enjoying their blind date Bekora was almost finished with his work and was about to prepare for the flight cause Helios urged him to come back and help him manage some emergencies in the companies in Denmark which required some projects and collaborations to be discussed for further improvement .
'' That cruel guy ! Putting me in dealing with those annoying old mans . Does he think that everyone is a machine worker just like him ?! I was promised a vacation and he acts as if he didn't hear me every time I mention the word break . I know that I am a boss just like him and I understand that we have more responsibility than anyone else but we are still humans ! I will get my revenge on you Helios even though you're a scary demon king ! '' said Bekora then he wrote a message to Aria telling her that they needed to depart immediately .
While talking with Florence , Aria's phone rang and she noticed the message Bekora send her . She got up immediately and called Bekora who told her that due to some problems they needed to depart as soon as possible . He told Aria to send him her location for him to come and get her so that they could go to the airport . Aria did as Bekora told her .
'' Aria ?! '' asked Florence confused .
'' The client that I just told you about needs to leave for Denmark as soon as possible and he told me that we need to depart today at all costs . I'm sorry I didn't keep my word as I should . '' said Aria then noticed from the window that Bekora had arrived .
'' I owe you a movie when I finish all this ! Bye Florence , it was nice meeting you ! '' said Aria and then went outside and hipped in the car .
' I have never seen anyone who love their family as much as she does . Even though we only just met my heart started to beat fast . For a second there I wanted to hug her , I couldn't take my eyes of her . Her voice was so sweet and her eyes were very shiny , full of warmth . Her lovable character makes me want to get a hold of her and never let her go . I feel very weird ! '
'' Gosh ! '' sighted Florence as if it bothered him .
' I think that this weird feeling is what normal people call love at first sight . I can hardly believe that is true , it's only just a baseless phrase but if that is right then what's wrong with my heart . ' thought Florence with a happy smile on his face .
