Chapter 52: Nobody will kidnap you
Isaac didn't notice Aria hurling a cushion at him which hit when he was glaring at Alan, "Stop using your dirty mind. Did he say we slept together? I had dozed off while helping him and I slept in my room."
Thinking both would start again, Alan carried her briskly leaving two stunned.
'Why are you giving the wrong impression? I just solved one now.' Aria felt like crying.
Isaac sang and dragged each word, "Long night... Beautiful dreams..."
Isaac knew Alan didn't want them to continue talking hence he took Aria upstairs but he didn't expect him to carry her effortlessly without her permission.
"Isaac... find yourself one soon..." He mumbled before entering his room and locking the door.
The woman he meets were ones who go behind him for name and fame hence even if wants one in his life, he didn't want any of them. Since he was still young, he focused on his career.
Aria said more than thrice to put her down but Alan didn't leave her and left her at the door of the bathroom. He went inside and took out a new set of toiletries for her and exited the door after turning on the tap to fill the bathtub, "Get fresh..."
He turned around to remember that she didn't have clothes. "Shall I give you my new set of clothes to manage for tonight?"
Aria's hum was too low.
Alan quickly took out a new set of nightwear and handed her. While she went in, Alan completed some office work.
Aria first kept her clothes for washing in the washing machine, cleaned herself, and exited soon.
Alan who subconsciously glanced at hearing the door unlocking wanted to laugh very badly. Aria's frame looked tinier in his clothes. The pants hems were folded and they looked like palazzo on her. The shirt reached her thighs giving the feeling of a child stole her parent's clothes.
Seeing her trying to fold sleeves which were falling off, he went to her and helped quietly. Her slender fingers and palm looked dinky next to his arm.
After finishing cuffing it, he pointed to the bed. "Sleep! It's late."
Aria was walking around in the room when Alan completed his unfinished work on the laptop. He again asked her to sleep before entering the bathroom.
Aria took the new set of duvet and pillow from the bed to the daybed and kept the other set on the bed before sleeping on the daybed.
By the time, Alan exited, Aria was asleep. 'This girl!' He made her sleep on the bed and he took the daybed...
"Ahhhh...." Alan was used to loud music early morning by Isaac but Aria got scared and let out a scream.
Alan who was awake went up to her to see her trembling profusely. "Aria! What's wrong?"
When he tried to hold her but she avoided his hand moved away before she composed herself and sighed realizing she was fine.
Alan looked at his hands in the air and was perplexed.
Aria's eyes were already wet remember her past incident which Alan noticed.
He sat on the bed and checked her temperature as he asked, "Did you get scared of loud music or nightmare?"
"A nightmare." A Real-life nightmare. "I'm sorry, I frightened you... Who puts loud music at this hour?" she patted on her chest but her tremble was still present.
"What nightmare was it that you are still shivering?" He helped her out of bed as he asked.
"Getting kidnapped and the car playing loud music." She didn't tell him that it was her past incident.
Alan sighed and pinched her cheeks, "Until I'm there, nobody can kidnap you. Don't worry."
She looked at Alan who assured her. She lightly hummed with a smile before entering the bathroom and calming her heart.
When she heard loud music she thought she was kidnapped again and got conscious back in the car to hear the music.
She showered quickly and wore the previous day's clothes which were washed. Alan knew it was washed but he suggested, "Why don't you wear the clothes which we bought yesterday?"
They weren't leaving so early back home. Aria didn't want to wear a mini skirt all day. An idea clicked her mind and walked towards the room exit as she replied, "I will use yours."
Alan was confused. It wasn't because she shouldn't take his clothes, it was because his clothes would be too loose.
Aria went downstairs and beat up Isaac for loud music ignoring him say he wanted to wake them up.
Then she brought all the shopping bags inside from the car truck which made Isaac's jaw drop, "Aria! I didn't know you are such a high maintenance girl."
Aria rolled her eyes, "These are Young Master Morgan's clothes which we shopped yesterday."
Curious Isaac, checked a bag and raised it high, "Where will he wear this?"
Aria snatched her mini skirt, "That's mine. This bag is mine." Aria's face was red in awkwardness. Her skirt looked too small in his hands upon that he was holding it high scanning it in the baffle.
Isaac didn't tease her knowing when he shouldn't. Isaac appreciated Aria for starting to change Alan's wardrobe and his style after seeing many clothes and shoes.
Aria went upstairs to keep the bags but turned away after taking some steps seeing Alan shirtless facing his back and rubbing his wet hair.
She kept all the bags down quietly and ran away which Alan noticed when she was taking stairs.
'I tainted my eyes.' Aria thought to herself.
Aria always heard Eva dramatically describe men and she had watched Isaac's movies too. So she could say Alan's irresistible V back was enough to ruin the sexist man title from Isaac who most of the time had to be shirtless showing his abs in many movies.
She helped Isaac in the kitchen until Alan returned. He didn't bring it up and Aria was glad.
She went upstairs and changed her top to Alan's new black and grey ombre shaded pullover. She shifted the neckline to make a single cold shoulder and crossed the hem after shirting to the same shorts. Satisfied with the look, she went downstairs.
Alan knew it was his pullover but it didn't feel like one due to her style. Isaac complimented her during breakfast and again offered if she was interested in showbiz which was obviously a rejection.
The trio spent time till evening and Aria alone cooked lunch for them leaving them to talk and have their private time...
She peeked at the balcony, "Lunch is ready."
Isaac bolted inside to check the table first to know whether she could really cook as a rich heiress. "Wow! Aria, your table arranging skills are amazing." He saw three types of pasta, fries, and brownie.
Aria just gave a faint smile. "Your favorite spicy red pasta." She turned to Alan, "Young master Morgan! Your Pesto pasta with grilled chicken... Let me know if it is as per your taste."
Isaac poked her, "You said you aren't my fan. How do you know I like this pasta and that too with mushrooms?"
Aria took her mobile and opened Isaac's recent social media post where she had commented asking, 'Which dish is our idol's favorite dish?'
"Sharp-witted... How about Alan's? You knew about his favorite with grilled chicken?" Isaac was curious to know whether Alan told her or other sources.
Aria started her lunch as she answered to which Alan was also waiting to hear, "I asked Aunty Lilly... The morgan mansion housekeeper."
Isaac rolled his eyes thinking, 'So boring'
Alan understood why his black coffee was as per his taste.
Two men liked what she cooked, They enjoyed their lunch and time passed till it was time for Alan to leave for his date.
