Chapter 31
"Can I have the menu, please". Brandon said sidestepping Aurora to stand directly in front of the man behind the counter".
"Well, you can just let the young girl order for you or give you a recommendation, it'll be easier that way".
"I insist on the menu please I hope it comes with pictures".
"Taste buds judge better than pictures".
"Arianna, I really think you wouldn't mind being adopted by this man here, you both fit quite perfectly".
"I wouldn't mind I am however sure aunt Fiona would be glad to offer you 500 shekels for this amazing deed".
"Your order is here". A young lady emerges from behind a food with three little boxes.
"Is this all you ordered"?
"Is it too big ".
"Okay now I understand what the message was earlier, I'll order for mine now ".
"Me as well". Paulo interrupted.
"Well, what would you like to order".
"Let me have the same thing as Arianna asides the bread I'm not a big fan of bread".
"And you sir?"
I would have the bread but I would prefer to have just one then let me have one cake slice box, I think that will be all ".
"Brandon, what are you getting?" Aurora asked rather impatient.
"Are you guys done?"
"I know you were miles away but be tactical if we weren't I wouldn't have called you alright".
"I was thinking I should call mum to know if she wants some dessert as well, I didn't ask that earlier".
"Oh fine whatever, just hurry up we've dallied enough".
"Let's wait for him at table, I feel like I'm having leg paralysis". Arianna said quite tiredly.
"Yeah, sure no problem, can we have our order delivered to the table we sir at ".
"Yes sure please go ahead".
"Can we have a two boxes of cake slice added to the order".
"Who is that for".
" I was thinking we can have a taste of the miraculously tasty cake slices and so you don't assassinate me with tears that's why I asked for more so it could be replaced".
"Brilliant".
"Can we also have two cola please".
"Sure".
"That will be all, thank you".
"You're welcome".
The trio makes their way to a table in a blindspot, Aurora waved at Brandon after they had their sit so he could know where to find them.
"Wait up am I seeing rightly, Aurora I do not think you would be having a taste of the cake slice anytime soon".
" What did you see now, a patridge still wouldn't be enough to make me abandon the cake slice".
"Check over there, I think I just saw the jerk we met at the eatery earlier".
"What"! Aurora's said and shot up instantly from her seat, the Lord had definitely heard hey prayer cause she really wanted to show the guy a colour".
"Over there behind the flower". Arianna said pointing hands while whispering.
"Arianna it's better you shout at the top of your voice, than whispering and pointing at the same time, it's contradictory". Aurora said and glares at her.
"Fine, just look at the flowers". Arianna retorts and rolls her eyes.
"The flowers, where"?
"Look to your right". Arianna whispered while trying to look elsewhere.
"Okay, to my right, that's the jerk Guy".
"Exactly I knew I had a perfect eyesight, quite fate that we met here again is he perhaps stalking us".
"Paulo". Arianna called out.
"I couldn't be bothered Ari, the prank was successfully played I've moved on can we please go home".
"Nice, I just had a hunch that the guy was going to fall back into my arms and so miraculous that not only did it not take time I didn't even have to search for him".
"Can you girls just forget about the matter? if you try to approach the guy and challenge him we're gonna waste too much time here, Ariana did you have to tell her you saw the guy now we're going to spend ages here, I miss my mum can't you guys just understand that"?
"Paulo you know I love you right and you know I would do almost anything for you".
"Yeah exactly so for me let's go home please".
"That is not included in the of almost anything, letting go of that guy after the stupid prank he played on him, I was hungry for the love of food".
"Now I also miss my mom. I don't know why I just have this feeling my mom wants to see me so bad, maybe dad went back to work afterall and she's now lonely". Paul tries convincing Aurora and makes a puppy eye.
"Did uncle come home of recent I thought he hasn't been around".
"Indeed he hasn't been, but all of a sudden he came home and even promised to paint with me when I get back home, I don't want to miss it".
"Uncle did"?
Paul only replied with a nod knowing Aurora had decided to leave the guy, even if her mom was on a death bed Aurora would have definitely challenged the guy still but she was his friend, his crush and she knew just hoe much his dad's presence meant to him, so he knew she was going to agree it was a done deal.
"I'm very sure we're going to see this guy another time, I'm very very sure, so let's just go for today do our cry baby can go suck his Mama's boobs, I don't want to see somebody sulking the entire way home". Aurora said and sits back down at the table, Paulo's dad had taught them both painting from a young age he was a good man you them both, but he was everything to Paul.
"Really, you're letting the guy go cause Paul wants to go home to paint"?
"I just don't want him sulking, let me go get Brandon to hurry up, we should hurry home".
"I am lost I swear it".
