Divinity: Against The Godly System

Chapter 132: I'm not doing that

Ryder stepped out of the Land of Pirates and brought his phone out of his pockets.

He could see the missed call of Esmi just a few moments before 11. He dialed her number.

As soon as the call connected, Esmi started going off on him about not picking up her phone.

"Anyway, I had called you to give you the update that I didn’t find anyone. I did see a suspicious person, though. I’m following him at the moment," Esmi told him.

"You don’t have to do that. That problem is solved. Come back," Ryder said.

"Alright. Where are you?" Esmi asked him.

"Meet me at the cafe in the central park," Ryder told her before he disconnected the call.

He started walking towards the Cafe and reached there after some time.

He waited for Esmi to get there while he ordered two coffees.

By the time the Esmi got there, the coffee was ready. He picked up the cups and walked towards the empty table.

He placed the cups on the table and sat on a chair. Esmi sat on the other seat.

"How did you know that I would be here exactly now?" Esmi asked him.

"I didn’t know," Ryder replied.

"Then why was it that the coffee got ready at the exact time. Can you see the future?" Esmi inquired.

Ryder shook his head as he took a sip of his coffee.

"Nope, I just ordered coffee without knowing when you would be here. I would’ve thrown it and ordered another one if you were late," he replied to her.

"I thought it was more Mysterious than that," Esmi chuckled before she picked up the cup and started drinking.

"Is now the right time to talk about that? What was that whole thing about? How did you know that a terrorist was going to be here? and how did you handle him?" Esmi asked.

"A friend told me. He is a cop. He knew that I was coming to this place. He called me and told me that there’s a report about a terrorist entering the Amusement Park. He was asking me to leave," Ryder made up a story.

"I somehow don’t believe that, but go on. How did you handle that guy?" Esmi asked.

Ryder smiled as he took another sip.

"I didn’t do anything. I got another call from my friend that it was a false alarm. Someone gave them a wrong tip."

"Really? So our date was disturbed for no reason? You know how much I had to work? How do you intend to make up to me?" Esmi asked Ryder.

"Ahmm, how about I increased our date duration? We can stay here until 4 pm instead of 2," Ryder told her.

"Nope, that’s not enough," Esmi replied.

Ryder smiled wryly as he saw her stubborn look.

"6?" he asked.

"Nope. It’s not about the time, but how we spend that time," Esmi said.

"What do you want me to do then?" Ryder asked with a defeated look on his face.

Esmi smiled as she looked towards him.

She moved her chair so that it was right beside Ryder’s chair.

She brought her red lips closer to Ryder’s ears and whispered something in his ears.

"What? No way! I’m not doing that!" Ryder straight away denied.

Esmi looked disappointed as she started looking down.

"I-i didn’t even ask twice when you told me to help you search for a dangerous terrorist. I gave it my best even though it could’ve cost me my life, but I didn’t think twice. You, on the other hand, can’t even do this for me," she said as she rested her head on the table.

Her voice was breaking up and seemed as if she was about to cry.

Ryder knew that she was just acting up, but he also realized that she was right. She did try to do her best to help him. In fact, in the previous timeline, she had even died in the blast.

"Alright. I’ll do that," Ryder told Esmi.

Esmi smiled as she sat up and kissed him on his cheeks.

She held his hands and stood up, and she pulled him with her.

Esmi brought Ryder to the Ferris wheel of the amusement park.

The Ferris Wheel was 600 feet tall, and it was a slow-moving Ferris wheel that allowed the people to see the city in peace. It took 3 hours to complete a spin.

Esmi took Ryder inside one of the cabins of the Ferris Wheel.

Both of them sat in the cabin, alone as the Ferris wheel started moving.

"I never thought that I would be doing that on my trip to this park," Ryder muttered with a wry smile on his face.

Their cabin had completed 25 percent of the spin, and it reached the height of 300 feet after 45 minutes, that’s when the things started.

Esmi looked towards Ryder and started kissing him.

Ryder kissed her back. Their kiss lasted for over 5 minutes before they separated. It didn’t take long before their clothes found their way to the floor of the cabin.

After 90 more minutes of intense exercising, they wore their clothes.

"That was great," Esmi said to Ryder as she smiled. Her face was still red and looked intoxicated.

"It was nice," Ryder replied as he glanced out the window.

Esmi started laughing as she heard his response.

"You can be more honest with yourself," Esmi said.

She held Ryder’s hand and intertwined her fingers with his as she looked at the view of the city with him.

"The city looks so peaceful from there," Esmi said.

"Yeah, the light hides the darkness much better," Ryder muttered.

"Hey Ryder, What have you thought about your future? I heard that you develop apps to earn money? I can help you get a small studio and hire a small team of developers? You can enter the much bigger field and get more exposure," Esmi suggested.

"Are you trying to help me financially?" Ryder asked as he glanced at her.

"You can think of that as my investment in a startup if you want. You can return whatever you want after everything’s settled? I just want to help if I can," Esmi said as she lowered her head.

Ryder smiled as he placed his hand on her cheeks.

" I appreciate the gesture, but I don’t lack the money. You have the wrong information. I’m well settled already," he said.

"What you heard might be old news. I’ve started a business, and I’m already earning quite well. You might not have noticed it, but there was a car being your car. That was mine," He added.
