“Wow!!” She clapped her hand. “That’s so nice to hear, It was nice meeting you,” Eryna smiled back, The dimple on her cheek was very prominent for some reason and her eyes shined when she thanked him.
“Be sure to call me when you need something,” He stepped back and walked away.
“Such a sweet guy…” Eryna glanced back at her plate as she mumbled.
“Is he your second prey?” Micah who was cutting into his steak spoke with a sullen attitude. He was taunting Eryna. Her eyes flashed at him when his words fell on her ears
“How did you know that?” Eryna replied with a teasing voice and poked into the steak with a fork.
‘Agh!! I can’t even pick up a knife,’
Eryna’s eyes watered as she realized that she was unable to cut off the steak.
‘Clang-Clang-Clang…
The fork in Eryna’s hand slipped off and fell on the floor. Micah knitted his eyebrows at this.
A waiter who stood not very far away noticed it and brought in a new set.
Eryna huffed and poked into the steak once again and this time she was able to lift it, in one big piece. Eryna decided to bite into it, but the steak slipped off the fork before she could bite into it and landed on the floor. She started at the streak with a sorry gaze.
“You are doing it on purpose Right?” Micah who was a clean freak stared at her with a burning gaze.
“Why are you scolding me? I hurt my hand, how do you expect me to cut into it?”
Eryna protested as she swung her hand before Micah’s face.
The waiter from before ran back and cleaned up the mess.
“I am so sorry about this, I didn’t mean to cause any of this,” Eryna apologized to the waiter who picked up the fallen food.
“That-it’s okay!” The waiter stared at her speechlessly and then walked away.
Eryna turned her apologetic gaze towards Micah who was cutting into the perfectly cooked steak as the juice oozed out of it. Eryna’s stomach growled at the sight of him relishing his food.
“Ahm…” The guy from before walked in with a plate in his hand, he placed it before Eryna, and she was surprised to see what was on it. There was a steak just like the one from before but this time it was sliced into bite-size pieces. Eryna was touched and she stared at him with watery eyes.
“I thought you would like it this way,” He said.
“I don’t like it. I JUST LOVE IT!!” Eryna picked up her fork and dug it into the bite-sized pieces. She then bit into the steak and let it slowly melt into her mouth.
‘This is heaven, And this guy here is my Angel,’ And dramatically the director guy now had white wings behind him.
‘Creak-
Eryna’s imagination came to an end when the chair before her creaked and Micah got up, his plate was still not empty but he walked away without saying another word.
“I will be leaving to Miss, You can enjoy your food now,” He stepped away leaving Eryna alone with her food.
…………………………………………….
Back in her room Eryna threw herself back on the bed and picked up her phone and turned it on, and surprisingly there were 5 missed calls from Renya. Eryna felt a sudden rush of discomfort in her heart as she felt like something bad had happened.
She dialed back to her and walked into the terrace. The phone rang a few times and finally, Renya picked up.
“Is everything alright?!” The first thing that escaped Eryna’s lips was a worrying question.’
“Yes, everything is fine, But is everything okay with you?” Renya responded in an equally worried manner.
“Yeah, I am great. Guess where I am now?” Eryna spoke in excitement.
“Where?” Renya asked with a curious tone.
“Hmm...I can see the seashore through my window,” Eryna giggled.
‘You mean you are here?! For real?” Renya spoke in an excited tone.
“Yes, I will come home tomorrow, don’t tell Simba. It’s a surprise…”
“This is so exciting. What time will you be here?”
“ I am not sure but I will try to be there first thing in the morning,” Eryna spoke in an assuring tone.
Knock...Knock...Knock…
“Renya I will talk to you tomorrow there is someone on the door, Bye”
Eryna switched off her phone again and opened the door, to see the same maid standing outside.
“Yes?”
“Miss I am here to change your bandage,” She replied in a sweet tone.
“Okay, Come in,”
It didn’t take her long to bandage her hand and help her out with her night clothes. The maid completed her tasks and left the room silently.
Because of the excitement of meeting Simba, Eryna woke up early. She dressed up warmly as it was cold outside though the sky was clear.
She wore a red woolen turtleneck dress that reached her thighs and a pair of long boots that were knee-length.
She let down her bouncy black hair and wrapped a scarf around her neck. Her reflection in the mirror looked innocent as her clear eyes reflected the bright light coming in from the window, she stretched her lips into a warm smile and winked at herself.
She walked sneakily out of the room and into the elevator. The guy on duty blushed at the sight of her. But then fixed his posture and asked.
“Which floor madam?”
“The first floor please.” She spoke lightly and gave him a warm smile with her tinted pink lips.
‘Ting-
Within no time she was out of the elevator, she walked towards the exit door when suddenly someone called upon her.
“Miss Renya!” The voice was familiar, Eryna stopped and looked around to see who it was.
