Last time, the girls came back from drinking and Kaoru went to take a shower and sees Aoi. As things are going, it seems like our hard-hearted heroine is opening up?
As I grabbed my food, I came back into the room and sat next to him. We were sitting at a little table in the floor. My phone started to vibrate. I could hear it but not see it. I looked it was on his right side. He looked over. I just ignored. I can tell you want to see what Ally wanted. Aoi replied. I grabbed my phone and looked down and saw the text.
Poppy: So how does it feel to be in the presence of Prince Charming?
It's actually Poppy. I replied. Poppy, are you guys childhood or just good friends? Aoi asked. Yeah, Ally and I are the first non royalty she ever met. Back then, Ally was an aide that was put on mission to heal Ren and I. She really didn't specialize until after they put her through that hellish so called *training mission. I replied. I squeezed my chopsticks causing them to break. So I was right, Ally was really never an solider. Aoi replied. It's not that. After that "mission" she changed into the person you guys know. I replied. I see broke your chopsticks. Aoi replied. I didn't realize. So many things have happened around all us. I replied. Aoi hands me more chopsticks. You are right about that. Aoi replied. As we ate, we just started to feeling like we were reminiscing. As we talked, Aoi thought about the first day he met me. I walked over to Haru to see why he was angry about? I thought. Are you ok? I asked. Haru turned around and adverted his eyes my way. He had a dumbfounded look on his face. Hi my name is Kaoru Koto. I replied. My name is Haru Ito. Aoi replied. Nice to meet you, Haru. I replied. My smile made his angry expression fade. Ally started to text me.
Ally: I hear laughs. Aoi is laughing? What are you doing to him?
Me: Nothing tbh I feel this is good we chose this place. He is at such ease.
Ally: Ease?
Me: Ally don't come to your conclusions. Smh uhhh 🤦🏽♀️
Rumiko: Kaoru ignore Ally, Aoi just likes your company. He doesn't really trust many people as from knowing him so far.
Me: If you say so, Rumiko.
As Rumiko texted me Aoi's phone vibrated.
Katsu: Talk to her, Aoi.
Aoi: I don't know why I just can't tell her.
Tomoe: You have something holding you back?
Aoi thought about the night of the *gala. He looked me in the eyes. I looked at him and smiled. As his face was getting closer, I got a text from Yukimoto. I blushed.
Yumibear (Kaoru's Phone): Hun, when you and Prince Charming get back to HQ, you have work waiting for you.
Me: what?
Yumibear: you have a bodyguard gig for the Ito family.
I looked a little shocked at the client. Aoi looked at me wondering what's with my expression? Aoi you look so happy and relaxed. I don't want to see him engulfed in rage as the night of the gala. I thought. As the day went by, all I could think about that smile dissolving back to hatred. Hatred doesn't fit his handsome smile he has. I thought.
Little did I expect, he found out on his own about this gig. He was engulfed in his hatred again.
What can I do? I thought
Stay Tuned.
The reference to the gala was in Chapter 3.
The incident with Ally will start to be revealed at the end of Book Three and in Book Four.
