Ethan: AIDEN!! did you hear what I said? (Aiden immediately looked at Ethan because of his loud voice)
Aiden: YEAH obviously!!! But...wait... what are you saying about?? (he said in confusion)
Ethan: Where is your mind Man?? huh... Of course, I am talking about this girl...
.Aiden: OH Right!!...but ....um...wait...when she is here then why should I wait!!!! I am going to talk to her okay... I mean I...I am gonna teach her the lesson!!
Ethan nodded and Aiden went to that girl.
Ethan smiled and understand what he is up to.
Emma's POV~
I was chatting with one of my office workers named Mia when she told me that a handsome man is staring at me and now he is making his steps toward me. I turned my face around and recognize that person as a man who was being rude to me. I excused Mia after telling her that I know him.
Man: oh! Hi
"Hi!..um.. looks like I have seen you somewhere," I said.
"So, You have a bad memory," the man says. I raised my left eyebrow.
"by the way, I am Aiden Valentino," he says (saying this he held out his hand for greeting)
I shook hands with him and spoke "I am Emma Sabastian. Nice to meet you but did we ever meet before".I am just saying, I know very well that he is the same rude man that I met before. Aiden smiled at me and uttered "I am here to tell you that we have met before but... unfortunately, our first meeting was not so particularly good"
"OH!! yeah... I remembered. We met at the footpath" I finally spoke up, " At that time, I wanted to say sorry but your behavior was so... " I declared
"Hmm! hey, I am sorry, I have some anger issues. I don't want to be like this but the circumstance that I go through made me react like that." Aiden expressed. His words make my heart melt and maybe I react a little bit much.
" No dear, It's not your fault. Sometimes we don't understand what is happening to us but Everything happens for a reason. I also overreacted at that time....so now it is equal" I said
He chuckled and took out the money from his pocket and hand over to me. "Take your money. There is no need for it. It's yours. Give this to someone who needs it...Ok!" he says while a warm smile appears on his handsome face. I wonder if he is not as bad as I assumed. End OF POV
Emma: uh oh! Okay...as you wish. Did you come here alone?
Aiden: No no! I came here with my friend...uh wait!!. (he pointed his finger at Ethan who was busy hitting on girls) Did you see that man who is talking to two girls... he is Ethan.
Emma: Ohh...that man with a black Jacket!!
Aiden: Yeah!!...uhh!...And you???
Emma: Well!! I came here with my office colleagues.
Aiden: Hm good! so!..., any boyfriend?
Emma: *smile* I have never been involved in this kind of relationship... What about YOU!!
Aiden: WHAT!! huh! You are beautiful ....uh I... I mean you look good. Then WHY??
Emma: Because the thing that I want is true love. A person who loves my soul not the beauty...and I know it sounds so stupid but it is!! All men are the same.
Aiden: I disagree with this thought of yours. Come on girl, not all men are the same...ok! leave it, tell me this did you ever give someone a chance??
Emma: Uhh! not yet...
Aiden: Then???....you are saying that you never be in any kind of love relationship then how can you say that...hmm?
Emma looked down and after thinking a while, she maintained strong eye contact with him and said "You are saying ok! but I don't wanna waste myself in these types of toxic relationships. You know what, I don't hate this...but I hate what happened in the end." Aiden was getting butterflies in his stomach every moment when his eyes met with Emma.
"I hope that you understand...Well! what about you??!! From talking to you, it sounds like you are an expert in this job" Emma articulated. Aiden forget what to say. He kept looking into her eyes and Emma nodded but at that moment, she decided to mute herself until he speak up about him."Now you made me speechless because for me love is a distraction that can be an obstacle on your way to success....huh! forget it. Tell me about your profession and future goals" he vocalized.
Emma formulated "NO! I won't...I am the only one here who is introducing herself, I enjoy your company and over time, you have proven me wrong..at first I judged you as a crude person....but" (her lips ceased after saying this). She doesn't have an idea of how much her words are worth to him.
Aiden's eyes were griming and then some words came out of his tongue " Why did you stop?".
Emma replied, "I did not stop, just thinking about a synonym of a word". "And what's that word" he empathized.
"Umm! a very good question but I would like to pass this question," Emma says while smiling, "It's Okay, your highness," he said in a seducing tone. "Hey! you still didn't introduce yourself" Emma claimed. He wonders whether he should tell her, but instead of disguising the truth, Aiden chooses to tell her that he is a Mafia.
" I ....am a mafia" He whispered.
"hmm! and you know, I am Queen Elizabeth's daughter" Emma grumbled as she thought of it as a joke.
"So, You don't.....believe" Aiden sighed and his expression changed into serious.
"Of course, I do believe my dear!! But you also must have to believe that I am Queen Elizabeth's daughter" she cheered with a bright smile.
Suddenly Emma heard her name-calling by her colleagues "Emma!! We are leaving, wanna come or you will stay" One of them asked as they were about to leave. She looked at Aiden whose eyes were already on her.
"WELL! Now I have to go....it's getting late " Emma gushed and bite her lower lip.
"Bye.." he said in a low voice, not wanting her to go.
"It was lovely to talk to you" Emma beamed
Aiden petitioned in "Same".
"We will meet again...If it is written in our faith. Bye!" Emma Applauded and then when she was about to leave. Aiden's heartbeat started to pound fast.
As Emma started to leave, she was called out by Aiden, who made her look back.
"I will make sure we will meet again," he said.
She pass a smile to him, then left.
