When Aarvi was thinking to deal with Naomi, she also heard why Aaron was hurrying up to leave for the hospital the previous day. She sighed deeply at his worry.
Facing him, she firmly, yet in a gentle tone tried to coax him, "You dumb man, don't keep me away from the sadness, I can handle them. If you think I can't, then won't you be with me?"
Aaron nodded obediently. He didn't know where he had threw his brain. Since she had returned back to his side, he too tried to persuade her, "If you are angry, reproach me, don't vanish."
'He really believed I was angry.' Aarvi thought and facepalmed before briefing him.
"I was still frightened, I didn't want you to return home after surgery and see me sad or crying. So I wanted to be alone but ended up breaking into Apple Pie's home."
She didn't add she was waiting for his call to inform him about her whereabouts and she had no plans to make him worried all night.
He gently tugged her and kissed the side of her forehead. He was glad that her fear of losing him doesn't keep her away from him.
She was about to ask him about Lara's health condition to go and check on her in the hospital when they heard knocks on the door. She didn't bother sitting away from Aaron and looked at the door.
Milo Wen slightly peeked inside through the creek of the door and caught the two pairs of eyes right on him. His first reaction was to close the door to run back to his chair but he didn't run, instead, he patted his chest for seeing them in a calm mood.
He pushed the door open with a file and tab in a hand as he held a huge bouquet of red roses.
Aaron was surprised to see red roses, Aarvi wasn't a fan of red roses. "What's so special today?"
Aarvi stretched her hands to take the bouquet from Milo as she hid her smirk, "These are called Checkmate roses." There was a hidden meaning behind it which she wasn't going to tell him.
'Checkmate' Aaron cued Milo Wen to keep the file on his desk as he thought who's checkmating whom in them.
She stood up and faced him. She was planning a beautiful date to confess to the dumb man. She wanted to make it unique as special as he made for her when he had confessed and asked her out officially.
She suspiciously looked at him to ask, "You aren't ditching today's date, are you?"
Aaron: "..."
She had already asked him out for the whole week evening after his work time and he couldn't believe he had to take a rain check.
Milo Wen who had kept the files on the desk without hearing her low voice reported holding his tab, "President Rivas, The airtime request is confirmed at two o'clock. Would you like to make any other arrangements at city Coasta?"
Milo was expecting Aarvi to join them or else Aaron would work all night to return soon to her side. As a result, the managers and he will have to be sleepless too.
Aaron's eyes were zeroed on Aarvi's every expression cursing Milo Wen in his mind. He wanted to talk to her instead of exploding it in front of her.
Aarvi's fingers crushed the bouquet around the ribbon hearing Milo Wen. Her eyes glared at Aaron's alert eyes and her lips slowly arced to a beautiful lopsided smirk but her eyes had turned colder than ice.
Milo Wen looked at her hand hearing the paper crushing and then at her face. 'Calamity is near.' He was about to run out but heard, "I would like to add some events in the schedule, Secretary Wen."
Milo and Aaron: "..."
They felt like she was planning a murder hearing her mysterious and cold tone.
She took steps away from Aaron and stood in front of Milo with a sweet girl look. Milo Wen instantly fell into her act pushing off the thought that he had seen her displeasure. "Could you please arrange for a whirlwind wedding in Coasta?"
Aaron: "..."
He definitely knew it wasn't a wedding of him and his Cupcake.
Milo was excited thinking otherwise, "Absolutely, Ms. Evans. Please let me know the requirements, I will arrange accordingly."
'Requirement?' She innocently responded aware Aaron was going towards her, "Prepare however you like it. Make sure to get wedding gowns…"
Aaron covered her mouth and cued Milo Wen to leave. Confused Milo Wen was taking small steps towards the exit but paused hearing Aaron hiss.
He turned around to see Aaron shake his hand after her bite and Aarvi stomped her heel on his foot before she started beating him with the bouquet.
"Why? You should get married to your stethoscope and laptop…"
Milo Wen's jaw dropped after knowing the brides of the wedding. He met Aaron's gaze and scurried out without forgetting to close the door behind him.
Aarvi continued to beat him without caring to give the flowers to him but withered them all on the floor after hitting him.
Her voice filled with sarcasm and fury continued, "... Woah, you were saying lengthy dialogues that you will give me all the time. I guess they were just empty words. Now I understand why people say all men are the same. You are no different but full of lies."
Aaron felt bad for the roses looking at rose petals making the flower bed. He repeatedly tried to cut in but she gave him no chance.
After the petals were gone, she threw the stems away and was ready to leave but heard, "Fine I am not going anywhere." And he tried to hold her hand.
Aarvi slapped his hand away and glowered at him, "Now you are ditching your work. Wow."
Aaron: "..."
She was angry hearing he was going out on business and she was also angry hearing he won't go. Where is the logic?
Now he understood why it's said that 'Women are hard to understand.'
However he still could discern his Cupcake's intentions, she was angry because he has to ditch their date again but she doesn't want to trouble his work.
Either he can go to Coasta or go on date with her. He can take her to Coasta but obviously can't go on a date.
Her eyes landed on the rose petals on the floor and announced, "Look, what happened to them because of you."
'M-me?' He was speechless. He can't argue with her seeing her throw every logic out of the window.
Ignoring her accusation, he tried to explain what he meant by his words, "I won't go but the managers will look into it."
However, she countered to it in no time, "If they could have handled it, then you wouldn't have planned to go in the first place."
She marched towards the door as she remembered her confession date. Fuming, she declared, "I am not talking with you anymore else I might kill you."
Here, the logic was simple, he should follow her and coax. So he went behind her, "Aarvi, lis…"
The door flung open causing Aarvi to halt. The handsome man on the other side was bubbling in anger but he slowly cooled down once his eyes shifted to the young lady who was next to Aaron.
Aaron oddly felt uneasy, he didn't want the man to meet Aarvi so soon but it was too late.
Before the men could utter anything, Aarvi mumbled in uncertainty, "Brother Nick?"
The man smiled in astonishment but Aaron froze.
