121: Sincere smile

Sincere smile

" True ! I know your situation . Still can't you use your own phone to call that person ?! Why must you disturb Alan ?! " said Helios .2

" Seriously ! Don't you know that I lost my phone ?! You were there when I lost my phone ! " said Aria in a bit of an embarrassed face .

Helios remembered how she threw her phone out of the window because she thought that it was his phone . When he recalled that , he couldn't help but laugh . Aria felt even more embarrassed now that he was laughing .

' Helios is laughing in a genuine way ?!!! ' thought Alan shocked when he saw him laugh .

" Hahahaha ! Yeah , I remember now ! " said Helios with a laughing tone and waved his hand at Alan . 

Alan understood that he gave him permission to give Aria his phone . 

' I have to make sure that my brother will be taken care of well while I work for this blonde devil donkey . Okay , then...wait a minute ! I don't know Mana's number !!!! ' thought Aria with a depressed face . 

' Now , what's wrong with her ?! She asked for the phone and I was kind enough to give it to her . ' thought Helios who had stopped laughing . 

" Ammm.....Alan , do you by any chance have Mana or sir Bekora's number ? " asked Aria while looking at Alan with pleading eyes .

' Is she....really....how can you ask for a phone in an urgent manner ?! Then again , you suddenly realize that you don't know the number if the person you're gonna call ?! ' thought Helios who was trying him best to not laugh out loud . 

" Yes , I have it miss Aria ! Here you are ! " said Alan with a nervous smile . Seeing Helios laugh like that scared him . 

After taking his phone , Aria checked for Mana's number and called her . She asked her to take care of Aden tonight since she had a lot of work to do . When hearing her Mana remembered the files on her working place and agreed to take care of Aden till Aria finished .

' Thankfully , at least I have someone , who I can lean on in this foreign place ! ' thought Aria with a warm smile and thanked Mana . She handed over the phone to Alan and thanked him too .

' I really hate it when she smiles like that ! She only shows that kind of smile when she speaks with Mana ! ' thought Helios annoyed .

" Why don't you have to make your situation harder than it already is ?! Why not just beg for forgiveness and make all this easier ?! " said Helios in a serious tone .

Aria was annoyed and wanted to say one of her usual lines but when she turned her head to look at him , she saw that for the first time he was asking her sincerely and seriously which made her decide to answer truthfully .

" I guess I told you before that no matter how powerful the person is I will never beg them for forgiveness or anything else . Plus , I never had it easy in my life . I had to endure and endure to get where I am today by going through the longest path . I know that most of the people may consider the long path boring and a waste of time but in comparison with the short path where I have to step upon myself , where I am forced to do things I don't like or offer myself to someone just for some favors , is not what I am able to do . Why should I resort to such means when I can get what I want with my own strength ?! Of course , luck is an essential point in my life up till now ! Without luck I wouldn't have been here !...I say...yeah...fifty percent brain and fifty percent luck are the things which give me courage to face everything head strong ! " said Aria with a sincere smile .

Alan looked at her and remained amazed that a girl could actually think the way she does . Or rather that a person like that existed . Helios looked at her and realized that this was the first time he had seen her smile at him like that . Her smile was neither polite nor warm , like her previous smiles . This smile was a smile full of sincerity which , Helios was the only one to whom she had smiled like that . With this thought in his head , Helios's heart skipped a beat .

' No , there's no way !...She's deliberately using kind words to make me go easy on her .' thought Helios to himself .

" Great speech ! Now that you're done you can go back to your work . " said Helios and Alan opened the door so that she could go out .

' That guy still thinks that I'm bluffing ?! Whatever ! Explaining to him is like explaining to a donkey ! Explaining to a donkey mean explaining to a rock ! ' thought Aria with an annoyed expression and went to the working room .

" Now that I am assured my little brother is in good hands I better try and finish this quick . That monster will kill me with debts if I don't do this . " said Aria and got back to work .

Helios looked at her from the window and felt irritated .

" Alan , get out ! Don't allow anyone to come in and disturb me ! " said Helios with a serious tone .

" Yes ! " said Alan and went out . He didn't understand quite well what just happened that suddenly changed his mood .

After Alan went out and closed the door he looked at Aria again and felt more irritated .

' Why ?! There's no way that my heart skipped a beat ! I hadn't seen her smile like that before that's why I was surprised , that's all !....Last time I made a terrible mistake by listening to my heart and not my mind . Grandma has always told me to be careful with my emotions or else I will make mistakes which may destroy everything I have worked for till now ! I can allow myself another loss ! The time for the real battle is near ! ' though Helios and looked at Aria once again before starting to search through the files .

The two of them started to work again during the whole night . Helios would often glance at Aria to see what she was doing . There wasn't even a minute when she was resting . After some time passed Helios looked at the clock on the wall and saw that it was already six o'clock in the morning . He was used to work all night sometimes and didn't find it strange . He looked at the window and saw that Aria was still wide awake and was still working .

" That idiot will faint again if she continues like this ! " said Helios and remembered the time when she got sick in London .

' I find her annoying but I can deny the fact that she amazes me with her working skills . Even when I read the her CV that Ace handed me , I remained amazed by this girl's education and skills . She's serious about becoming someone important in life . Her ambition is what makes others look her way.....By the way , she hasn't eaten anything . I have no intention of getting her to the hospital again , I better ask Alan to buy breakfast . ' thought Helios with a tender smile .

He finished the last file he had in his hands and called Alan . When he came in Helios ordered him to buy breakfast and within two minutes he came with two sets of luxurious breakfast .

" Here you go bro ! I have to admit that it's strange the fact that you have such a big appetite this morning . " said Alan with a smile .

" Take one set to miss Sarehan ! " said Helios while checking the last details .

" Sure !.....Wait !...What ?! You asked this other set for miss Aria ?! " asked Alan surprised that he had actually taken in consideration buying breakfast for another person other than himself .

" Anything wrong ?! " asked Helios Alan , who was still in a surprised state .

" Bro , do you feel well ?! You have been acting way to weird since yesterday . " said Alan .

" Alan , I haven't been in a good mood lately bro , so I ask of you to not test my patience ! Go and bring miss Sarehan , breakfast ! " said Helios and Alan started to take one of the food sets to deliver it to miss Aria .

' I swear I am not recognizing my bro and boss anymore ! I must ask Ramolo as soon as possible ! ' thought Alan .

Alan knocked on Aria's working place and Aria opened the door .

" Oh , morning Alan ! " said Aria with a smile .

" Morning miss Aria ! " said Alan in a polite tone .

" Please , stop adding the miss word to my name ! It sound weird . " said Aria with a smile .

" Okay , I'll be sure to not use that anymore mis.....I mean Aria . " said Alan with a smile and he noticed the black circles under Aria's eyes .

' She must be very tired ! ' thought Alan with a sympathetic smile .

" That's more like it . Why are you here ? " asked Aria .

" Ooo....I am here to deliver breakfast . The president ordered it , it 's Chinese cuisine . " said Alan . He expected to see a happy expression on her face since this is the first time that Helios has ever ordered breakfast for someone apart from himself but it was the opposite , she was looking at it with a doubtful expression . Aria looked at the delicious breakfast . She was very hungry but at the same time she found it extremely weird the fact that he had brought her breakfast .

" Aria ?! " asked Alan .

" Alan , tell me the truth ! That devil over there told you to bring me breakfast ?! Is this food poisoned ?! " said Aria looking at him with doubt .
