Amber's POV's
For me beauty or ugly, rich or poor it doesn't matter, the fact is we are still human with bones and flesh, we are equal in God's eye, but what makes us different from each other is just DNA and personality.
But tonight i look completely different. Glowing skin, blue eyes no glasses, beautiful make-up, beautiful hair, perfect dress, expensive car, fancy restaurant, Delicacy expensive food, and Champagne? huh it's not me at all, ugh my head is spinning around. What am i doing here?
Wake up Cinderella it's time to go home!.
"Are you alright?"
"I'm ok"
"Come I'll take you home"
He helped me up and i feel so embarrassed, people are staring at me.
"I can go home by myself"
"No you stay here, let me pay the bill then we go"
He waved his hand to call the waiter.
"May i help you sir?"
"Could you please give me the bill"
"Yes sir wait a moment please"
"Thanks"
"My pleasure sir"
After a moment he comes back with the bill.
"The total amount including the taxes service is $8959 you will get 20% off if you paid with Amex, is there anything else sir?"
"I pay with Amex and you can have 20% of my discount for you"
"Thank you so much sir I really appreciate it, may i receive the card please, thank you sir"
"My pleasure"
"Hold a moment please"
"Okay"
My jaws are drooping!
"What, am i really drunk or is it really that much money you will have to pay for only this much food?"
"No you're not drunk yet, it is that much money that i have to pay, so what?"
"Are you kidding me, $8959 for all this?"
"Yeah"
"That's too much, i could feed the whole village with that much money you know"
"It's nothing for me, i used to spend more money everyday on other things too, eating three meals in a day at different restaurants is even more expensive than this place"
"Ugh come on stop showing off you disgust me, why do all rich people like to throw money just like that"
"Why are you worried so much about money, relaxed we have plenty and don't worry we do give more money for donations everywhere too, and my parents spend a lot of money for charity, so chill just enjoy your experience to be a rich person in one night and be grateful for it because it won't happen everyday, and listen without rich people who's going to help poor people feed their family?"
"Okay, thank you for everything but i still need to go home as soon as possible"
"Let's go then"
We left the restaurant, He took off my heels and carried them on his hands and the other hand is grabbing my body so i won't fall down.
"I don't understand how you get drunk just because of one glass of champagne?"
"Because it's my first time, this is all your fault and you have to be responsible for it"
"Why would i be responsible for it, you're the one who drinks it yourself, nobody's forcing you and now you blamed it on me huh funny"
"Whatever I'm hungry, seriously you're not full yet?"
"Not at all, that kind of food doesn't make my belly full enough so let me show you the real food"
"Okay show me then i want to try what kind of food that poor people like you eat"
"Shut up, just drive already!"
"Aight"
We're going to one place where there is a lot of street food which is delicious and cheaper. There's a lot of different food from Mexican food, Chinese food, Korean food, etc.
"Look, this is the best place to eat, i used to come here to eat after I finished my part time job everything is delicious and cheaper you can eat as much as you want"
"What kind of food is this, it looks unhygienic and where do we sit, also there are too many people, it's not safe let's just go home"
"Relaxed it's really safe don't worry, come let me show you"
"Okay, wait hold on before you go out, you wear this"
He took off his jacket and he gave me his nike slippers that he had in the car.
"Why"
"It's cold and your dress is too open and your heels don't suit you at all, how are you gonna manage to walk on the street so just wear this"
I can't believe that he suddenly became a gentleman, so far he's not that bad at all.
"Thanks"
"Hmm"
We walk past the street food stands and begin to pick which one we should try first. And finally I picked the one which is my favorite food of all time, it's tacos.
"This is my favorite, it's Traditional Mexican tacos are called street tacos. They are typically served on corn tortillas and are stuffed with meat. Traditional toppings include onions, cilantro, and salsa"
"I know what tacos are, it's mexican food, i know chinese food and everything's here so you don't have to explain it to me one by one just go grab whatever you like then we go"
"Okay"
It's funny thinking about how he was bullying me everyday at school. A guy that i used to know as a person who is a trouble maker, arrogant, bad boy, spoil brat. Ugh nothing's good about him except for tonight, i really don't know why he changed to be someone else who is completely different tonight. I feel safe and he comforts me a little.
"Here, have a taste"
"Nah I'm good thanks"
"Come on it's yummy try!"
"I don't eat something which is cooked by an uncertified chef"
"Ah come on it's not poisonous, street food doesn't kill you so just try a bite"
"Hmm ok gimme"
Finally he tried and it turns out that he likes it.
"Umm what is the secret sauce, it's delicious, let me have some more"
"Finish it, it's all yours, i know you will love it"
"No you eat also"
"Nah, I'm full now I've eaten this almost everyday so yeah i have enough of it, but you can order more if you like it"
"No no I'm good, i can't eat too much because i have to drive you home, overeating leading me to feeling sleepy especially after drinking champagne"
"Oh alright then, let's get moving shall we?"
"Sure"
"Where else do we go"
"Nowhere because it's late and everything will be dark soon when the food court is closed then no more lights"
"So what?"
"Because my phobia will strike me again if it's too dark and i don't want that"
"Oh ya your phobia, alright I'll drive you home then"
"Thanks"
After a few steps we walk, there is someone who stole his Louis Vuitton clutch bag and escaped real quick.
"Hey, oh s**t he took my bag, wait here I'm gonna catch him"
"Be careful"
Noah is running so quickly to catch him because everything he has is in his clutch bag. Once he catches this thief, he's trying his best to fight him, luckily he knows better how to fight.
He tried to hit him. he dodged. And then he fell down. And then he lifted himself up and gave him one box and he went flying, But unlucky he fights back but this time is dangerous for Noah, because the thief got a knife on his hands. After a few punches on his face and the thief starts attacking him with his knife, Noah is trying to defend himself by dodging with his arm until one s***h lands on his neck and he falls down to the ground.
"Noah" i scream and jump on him before the thief attack him more and
"Aa..." Another s***h landed on my left arm while I'm trying to protect him. Luckily someone who witnessed this incident is calling 911 and they came fast right after i fell to the ground.
"Hands in the air!"
The thief surrenders to the police, Noah gets his bag back and the ambulance is came. The paramedics are taking care of our wounds and taking us to the hospital as soon as possible.
"Amber you alright?"
"I'm okay, what about you?"
"I'm stronger than you think, this is nothing so don't worry a-aw slow down!"
"Umm i see hehe" i smirk, Noah is still Noah haha.
Once we reached the hospital, they took us in and there are someone who i recognized and when i take a look at him closer then i realized that is Doctor Ethan, I'm wondering what is he doing here.
"Doctor"
"Miss Amber"
