Marry Me Not

SIXTEEN

Ten days. It is been ten days since I am coming back from Japan. No Arta and annoying proposal.

Two days when I came back from Japan, Arta said that she must go back to Russia. It is either freedom or liberty for me if I may say but my heart keeps arch me down and I don't know why.

You miss her that is why...

Yeah right, brain!

Like I care, right? Or maybe I do?

'Cause right now, I found myself at Saint Petersburg Pulkovo airport in Russia...

What I am thinking?

You are falling in love dummy!

Shut up!

"Hey, how is in Russia?" I texted Arta. Didn't take too long for her to reply

"Hectic. How was your day?"

"Great. I might just take  a day off"

"Good for you. You need to rest a bit"

"Busy?"

"Just doing paperwork"

"Tired?"

"A bit. Why? Asking me for a date? Too bad you missed that chance when I am around"

"Join me for this magnificent view tonight?" I sent her the picture of the river of Saint Petersburg

"Hah! Did you just googled that picture?"

"Whatever"

"You are not kidding?"

"Why don't you just come and look for yourself?"

"I will kill you myself if you pull a trick on me"

"How far it is from your place?"

"10 minutes I think"

"You only have 15 minutes start from now"

"Wait, I am not done with my work yet"

"Tick tock tick tock.."

"JORDAAAAN!"

"10 minutes..."

She should be here by now.

"Oh my.. you really here?" Arta is screaming behind me

"Told you"

"Are you on a business trip or something?"

"Nope. Day off. Vacation. Dinner?"

"Yes, please"

"Where is the fanciest restaurant here?"

"Fanciest? With you and your jumper?"

"What is wrong with my jumper?"

"Nothing. Just thought that maybe Mr.Weldern will care for his look at someplace called fancy?"

"Yeah, your right. I do care. Let's go hunting for street food"

"What?"

"What? As you said, my look, me and my jumper"

"I don't really care Jordan I am just messing with you"

"Oh don't you think I know that?"

"Asshole!"

"For a beautiful lady, you sure have a dirty mouth"

"How dare you??"

"Just kidding. I am starving"

"Well, I know one good place. Not too fancy for your liking but the food is good"

"Suits me and my jumper?"

"Yes"

While driving Arta makes a few phone calls.

I found it amusing when she speaks Russian. Not to mention her beauty serious face.

Okay, it is fixed that I fall for her.

I am tired of telling you that dumdum!

"So where are you staying?" I froze with her question and only blink my eyes.

"Haven't thought of that yet?"

"Yes. I just thought that I can simply fly back to the states"

"Stay at my place"

"Nah, I will just find a hotel here"

"I insist"

"Really?"

"Please, Jordan. Stay at my place. I got plenty of room for you to choose from or you could sleep in my room if you want. I have the best bed and pillows in the world" she tries to lure me in and she won!

"Okay, but where you will sleep if I am sleeping at your room?"

"Where do you think I was sleeping when you are having those mysterious sleepovers before?"

"Guest room?"

"No. I was right next to you"

"Impossible.."

"Everything is possible when you are asleep Jordan"

"What does it mean?"

"Nothing! Oh, what makes you came here?" Changing the subject. Fine. But Should I just tell her or it is too soon?

"I don't know. All I know is I arrived at Pulkovo"

She looked at me, disbelief.

"Seriously. I was thinking about how much I enjoyed my days without you annoyed me for your proposal and then suddenly I desperately want to see you" there

"I miss you too"

"Err! Hey, About the proposal.. maybe we should start over without it"

"You won't get anything for helping me"

"I don't want your wealth. I have enough for the next twenty generations myself. Say for real, do you really like me?"

"Yes. I like you and I care about you"

"Since when? How?"

"It started years ago. I saw you with the horse at the country club."

"I never see you in there"

"Because you only focus on your own world"

"That is harsh. I am not like that"

"You have your own world whenever you are at the country club. I can see it through"

"You have a psychic power"

"No.. because I only focus on you. I really like you as you Jordan and speak of you, where is your luggage?"

"Err I think I left it at home" I give her my biggest smile while she just shakes her head hopeless.

"I think we still have time for a little shopping tonight"
