Aydan walked back to his car and shut the door as soon as he hopped in. It was a sunny day, luckily that the restaurant is indoors. He turned on the air conditioner to the max and he laid his back on the driver's seat.
A cup of iced green tea was staring at him. He chose to go to that restaurant as he heard about their teas on the Internet. They're quite famous in Bangkok and their place is fancy too.
He looked at the cup and he smiled stupidly. He couldn't deny the fact that the one who was making his order is the prettiest girl he's ever seen even though he has been to a lot of countries around the world. Blonde, blue eyes, or even green eyes can't compete with her.
She got that nice-looking eyes where her eyelashes were naturally long and yes she doesn't have any makeup on her face. Her natural tomato-iy cheeks and lips are one of the things that Aydan saw besides her eyes.
He's not a person who easily catches feelings when a girl tries to get close to him but that Amanda, didn't even try and automatically he got his eyes on her.
He decided to take a sip of his iced green tea and he smiled upon the first gulp. It's good, it has a taste that he couldn't explain. The sweetness and the creamy taste are just wonderful.
He took a picture of the drink and post it on his i********: story. He loves updating his wealthy life there but today, it's just a cup of iced green tea. His thousands of followers might think that he's weird today but he didn't even care.
He hit the pedal off the restaurant and went home. He has nothing to do plus it is very hot outside.
The right hand is controlling the steering wheel and the left one is holding the cup, sipping it until it's gone. He couldn't stop thinking about the new girl that he just saw today, Amanda.
This is the first time his mind is filled with a girl. Living as a person who has money and a handsome appearance, he used to think that going out with girls is all about having fun and playing around but today, he's dreaming about having a cute relationship with a lovely girl. Weird.
After taking a few minutes of driving, he finally parked his car on the porch. He got out of the car and looked at the empty cup in his hand. He shook his head with a smile.
"Good day, sir". The guard greeted and he nodded.
"Take my things inside, please". He said and immediately walked inside the house.
It was lunchtime and normally he didn't have any lunch since he's only eating once or twice a day. That's his routine but today, he opened the fridge and thought of making something to eat. He took out the eggs and fried them up with some bacon.
"Sir, do you want me to order something for your lunch?". The guard asked as he entered the kitchen with the paper bags.
"No". He answered. Short and complete. He likes it that way.
The guard nodded and he walked out of the kitchen.

On the other hand, Amanda was cleaning the counter and her mom approached. "Your cousins are coming next week, we have to close the restaurant for 2 days". She uttered and Amanda looked at her.
"Why do we have to?". She asked in disbelief.
"We haven't met them in a while... why don't we make some time for them?". She sighed due to her daughter's behavior.
Amanda didn't really like her cousins since they love making fun of her since she was young. Amanda was a quiet girl when she was young, she didn't like to talk a lot and also separated herself from people.
"I'll open the restaurant... you guys can go". She said softly and her parents sighed.
"Please". Her dad frowned.
"Next week is going to be in 2 days. I'm not ready". Amanda uttered.
"You have to". Suddenly a voice from behind appeared.
She turned around and saw her big brother standing behind her. "but..."
"no buts". He glared and Amanda pouted.
Jackson smiled and he wrapped his arm around Amanda's shoulder. "You have to". He repeated and Amanda looked down.
"You're beautiful, cute, and smart too. They won't look down on you anymore, trust me". He said gently even though he knows that their cousins won't change.
Amanda nodded and their parents smiled. Only Jackson can help when it comes to their only princess.
