After a few hours of travelling separately with their own cars, they finally have reached the familiar route to the Musni’s residence. Contrary to the city they resided at where gigantic buildings were spotted in every direction, this route consisted with the hills feeding their sight as greeneries took place the buildings. While heavy traffic lived in the city to which they experienced firsthand during the travel earlier, this route on the other hand couldn’t be any smoother with barely any transportation on the road.Georgia was leading the way, while Kris behind her was following. After getting through the cemented road, they had to go through the rough one first before they could finally reach their destination. Good thing, the road wasn’t rough. Though uncemented and rough, they still somehow made it smoothly to the Musni’s residence.With a smile curving on her face, Georgia beeped her car a few times before getting out of the car. As she reached the gate, it was also the exact
By the next morning, Georgia and Kris agreed to meet at the grocery store near the former’s house. Georgia arrived first, she didn’t wait for Kris and decided to get inside. She was wearing a white polo long sleeve paired with high-waisted jeans and white shoes. Since they will be going to her hometown, Georgia thought of buying some necessities they might need–that includes their daily needs, after all, they still didn’t know when they were going to finish doing what they needed. Well, she didn’t want to come empty-handed like the last time, too. At the same time, Georgia didn’t want to depend on her mother out there, too. As much as possible, though they were into treasure hunting, she wanted to help her mother with what she could as well. She bought some canned and processed foods, fruits and vegetables, and also meats. As it was her turn in the counter, her eyes caught a familiar presence of a man across the counter two meters away. Her brows met for a second when she saw Kris c
“Kris, right here, will help you in this journey.” All of a sudden, Lupus muttered, catching the attention of his son who lifted up his head to him with the spoon half-way through his mouth.“Dad?”“What?” At the same time, Georgia and Kris responded–Georgia, who was sort of surprised and Kris who was completed surprised. He was just enjoying his food as he thought he would in this meeting. He didn’t expect that he would be brought up! Lupus averted his gazes from his son to Georgia and continued.“Though I would love to see this through with you, I’m afraid I can't make it. I have a business trip tomorrow. That’s why I’d like you to make use of my son, instead.” Lupus added as he motioned his hand toward his flustered son, who was slowly chewing his food. When his eyes laid on him again, Lupus said more, “Don’t look at me with those eyes, Kris. I know you want it.” Lupus bluntly remarked, widening Kris’ eyes in surprise.Kris stared at his father for a second, then to Georgia who has
A second after they took their seats, the food pre-ordered by Lupus has started to arrive. As the food was served on the table, Georgia sat still on her seat with surprise visibly written on her face as she stared at Lupus who just smiled at her. Meanwhile, Kris was just found on the opposite side who was just listening to their exchange and ate first.“He was a close friend of mine.” Lupus said with his voice that sounded so soft yet melancholic at the same time. His eyes then laid on the steak served and began slicing a piece of it, while Georgia just had her gazes remained on him, waiting for the next thing he was going to say.Did it surprise her that a lot of people knew her father? To be honest, it didn't surprise her at all. Her father was a kind man. He could easily make friends with anyone because of how pure and genuine his intention were. It wasn’t an exaggeration. Anyone who knew her father could testify the same thing. His kindness even drove him to run for a national pos
Georgia couldn’t see the significance that made Sir Lupus wanting to see her at all. The first and the last time she met him was on the beach before an ambush almost drove them to death. It was a wonder. What piqued his interest? In order to answer such questions, Georgia ended up agreeing to the meeting.Her car was left in the cafe parking lot as Kris offered her to give a ride, which was unnecessary, by the way, given that she has a car. But the man was persistent. He definitely wanted to meet his father together–in one car.“Make sure it’s not a sham, Kris.” Georgia muttered as she leaned her head on her hand with the support of the edge of the windshield. She was seated in the passenger’s seat. Hearing her, Kris couldn’t help but to laugh softly. Georgia darted a glance at him with brows slightly furrowed. She wasn’t kidding.For the past weeks that she interacted with this guy, Georgia could surely tell that he was a playful person. He pulled some antics that were so out of the
He’s well. He looks good and healthy. Just seeing him from a far was already enough for Georgia. Though a part of her wanted to do more than just watching him. But she needed to keep her feet straight and sturdy. She couldn’t afford to be weak. As long as he’s fine, there’s nothing else she could hope for.Georgia initiated to break the gaze she was having with Primo–though unbeknownst to him. Without taking another glance, Georgia finally moved the wheel and left the hospital with a sturdy and frozen heart that was so close to melting just at the sight of the man that every bit of her recognized.It must be why Lily asked her earlier about visiting him. She must have known that today was the day he was going to be discharged–one thing that Georgia was trying to seal away from her mind, in fear that she might bend onto what she was standing by, only to end up actually seeing him.As Georgia was about to pass by the 10 o’clock cafe, she ended up stepping on the brake unprecedentedly wh
