Ebb and Flow

CHAPTER FIVE

“It's your mom's calling, Orion” Eloise said, with a relaxed mind and a little curious look.

Maybe she should ask about his mom.

The pressure was laid off immediately, as he heard his mom's name. He couldn't show off his deep feelings so he didn't get questioned by Eloise, who wasn't too focused at that time.

Now he gets to think about what his mom would have to say and why she'd be calling him after days.

That's absolutely nice of him as he feels calm at the moment, but he needs to drop off Eloise before a possible call from Amelia comes in.

She wanted a night out with him as she apologized earlier in the text. Orion felt reluctant about Amelia's text as he still got flashbacks of her actions in his office.

He has always been a gentleman with respect to everyone around him, not considering his status as he still kept himself unknown.

What will be Eloise's reaction if she gets to know about Orion being an unknown billionaire? She actually cherished the moment and felt the difference between living Downtown and the Main City.

Life is beautiful over here and challenging if you ain't keeping up to the standard.

Orion turned on the music sounds, feeling like he was getting better now. He kept increasing the volume as he vibe so well with the song.

Eloise kept staring at him as he got a lovely dancing skill with his head and shoulders moving uncontrollably. She couldn't hold herself as she gave the same energy with a lovely smile over her face.

I feel she has got butterflies in her belly. She felt the good vibes from Orion as if both of them had been on the same love path for years now. No one could believe a first date would be this great.

Eloise got so deep with the song until she realized that she had limited time to spend with Orion in his car that day and had to drop off along Wall Street before she made her way to Downtown.

“Hey man, please don't let these good vibes make us miss our way”, she said jokingly.

“Oh yeah, I wish this could be a never-ending moment between us. I've got smiles all over me and I feel absolutely excited today.”

“It's indeed a pleasure to be with you”, Eloise says as she points towards the nearest stopping point for her.

Over here!! As she made him slow down and wheel to the right-hand side of the road.

Orion quickly grabbed his little fortune back beside him. seems he got something different for Eloise this time, but she didn't let him as she helped close the opening of the bag. Leaving her side eyes directly on his face and putting on a beautiful smile.

“Thank you, Orion…the ride was absolutely amazing, and the moment was great.” She expressed with heartfelt excitement as she opened the door and gently closed it back.

She stepped by a little bit and waved at him through the window as she got this killer smile.

One of the cutest smiles Orion has ever witnessed from her.

Orion's eyes were well entertained by her beauty, curvy body shape and smiles, but he couldn't hesitate in giving back the same energy as he waved back at her, putting on a smiling face as well.

“Thank you, Eloise, goodbye” Orion said with purging emotions all over him.

Incoming call again as his phone starts buzzing

He only glanced to find out who was on the phone as he was only interested in Eloise.

Orion wasn't satisfied as he changed the position of his mirror so he could glance through it to see the last image and shadow of Eloise as he wheeled off.

Music was still on as he clicked the repeat mode. He's absolutely satisfied with the song because he had a good vibe with Eloise. At the moment, he's living in a fantasy.

The fantasy of Eloise got over him now as he kept accelerating, hoping to get home earlier as mom would be expecting a call from him.

It's Amelia on the phone this time…

Orion picked up the phone to hear what she had to say, as his face couldn't express any atom of excitement towards the phone call.

“Hey Orion, how're you doing? Still waiting for Clara. "We're about leaving Landmarks Bay and getting to prepare for our night out”, Amelia narrates on the phone.

“Sorry!! I'm not sure if I will be there with you tonight. I've got mom's call, and I'll be fully engaged once I get home. Orion responded with no regret as he wasn't comfortable with the call.

“I know you're actually crazy at me, you're right, but I want us to get over that and feel ourselves again,” Amelia expressed with a low tone just like the first touch of a piano note.

“ Let's fix this another time. Right now, I'm handling the wheels. "Hope I get focused now…talk later”, Orion said as he dropped his phone in a gesture expressing his previous moment with her.

Clara entered the as she asked Amelia to pick her up.

“Are we waiting for Orion or is he going to come later, huh?” Clara asked while Amelia was still on the phone with Orion.

“We ain't waiting for anyone, Orion just turned down our night out as he claimed to be busy tonight,” Amelia said as she sadly blinked her eyes with her left hand on her face.

“But I met him here a couple of hours ago”

Clara said with a strange expression, showing off her feelings for Amelia.
