Chapter 38
Aria walks back to her room feeling excited, she believes that she must have impressed the old man by winning a game of chess
against him. Perhaps now his opinion of her would change, only if she knew how wrong she was.
She checks on her baby who is still sleeping. Just then there was a knock on the door, she guessed it would be Rosie because
she had invited her over. Her guess was correct, the person at the door was her best friend Rosie.
“Hey girl, you are late,” she said and crumpled her face.
“Well, in my defense, the traffic was terrible.” Rosie replied.
“You always blame it on the traffic, but we both know the truth,” Aria said and laughed.
“Glad I don’t have to lie,” Rosie replied and hugged her as they laughed, then she walked into the room.
“So, I heard that your husband’s grandfather is back, but you didn’t sound so happy about it over the phone. I tried to find out
what was wrong from Sammy but even he wont tell me.”
Aria sighed, “That is because I asked him not to tell you, sorry about that,” she replied and closed the door.
They both walked to the balcony by her window side. “It is fine, just tell me what is wrong,” Rosie said.
“Well my fears had come true Rosie, I told you I had a bad feeling about Oliver’s Grandpa coming back.”
“So what exactly went wrong? He doesn’t like you?” Rosie asked and placed her hand on the pillar in the middle of the balcony.
“I wish it was just that, but it is way more complicated than that. I mean, it is very terrible.”
“Stop making me anxious, just tell me already,” Rosie half-yelled
“Well, the bad news is that Grandpa Go came back from Asia with a Chinese woman. He wants Oliver to get married to her.” Aria
announced.
“What? That is insane!! I mean, Oliver is already married to you so he cant get married to another woman, she would have to go
back to wherever she had come from,” Rosie fired.
“It is not that easy, according to Grandpa Go, she is the daughter of his childhood friend and they had both taken a vow to get
their children married, so that is the problem.” Aria explained and groaned.
“I don’t see any problem there, this is the twenty-first century, you can’t arrange a marriage for the youths of these days
“I don’t really know sis, the old man is really persistent and to make matters worse, the Asian woman also wants to get married
to Oliver.”
Rosie groaned and clenched her fist, “Is she home? Let me give her a piece of my mind!”
“She is not home, and I don’t think we should do that either, I just want to settle this matter peacefully.” Aria whined and turned
back to the room. She thought she had heard the Princess crying.
“Ugh!! You always want to do things the peaceful way, if it were me, I would have thrown her Asian a$$ out of here by now.”
Rosie spat and followed her..
“Relax sis, I will try my best to take care of things here. Tell me, how are things going between you and Sammy?” Aria asked and
sat on the bedside. Her daughter was still asleep, well that is what she does when she is not crying.
“Sammy? Ugh!” she scoffed
“Huh? What is that look all about?” Aria queried.
“Well, that guy is always busy and the little opportunity we get to spend together, he just says everything other than what he is
supposed to say,” Rosie replied and Aria chuckled.
“Hey, this is not funny,” Rosie whined.
“I am sorry, it sounded ridiculous to me. But seriously, you two are the perfect match, he is quiet and has no idea how to express
his feelings while you are one crazy girl who does things without thinking twice. You just have to make the first move if he is shy
to do so,” Aria advised and laughed.
“What exactly am I supposed to do, drag him to my bed and jump on him?” Rosie sneered.
“Hmm... that would work too,” Aria said and laughed
Just then, there was a little chaos downstairs and that got the ladies attention. They decided to go and check it out. They climbed
down the stairs to find out that Nora was back and for some reason, she was yelling at the servants.
“I asked you to make something so simple and you couldn’t!” she yelled.
“I am sorry ma’am; we don’t have Asian cooks here so it’s difficult to make your order.” Zach replied.
“What sort of a lame excuse is that? You all deserve to be fired!” Nora cursed fiercely.
“Zach, what is wrong?” Aria asked as they got to the scene.
cooks don’t have such experience but she insisted that we prepare her choice of meal. So we made something following recipes
from the internet but she doesn’t like it” Zach explained.
“Well she should just go to a restaurant if she won’t eat American food, it’s as simple as the English alphabet,” Rosie retorted.
“Excuse me? Who are you and what makes you think you can tell me what to do?” Nora fired.
Rosie was about to give her a fitting reply when Aria stopped her, she gave her an appealing look, pleading that she stays put.
“It’s alright Nora, I understand that you are not familiar with the food here so I will help you out, I will prepare something Asian for
you.” Aria said.
“Wait what? You can’t be serious girl, don’t tell me you want to cook for this arrogant alien. She can speak English fluently but
she doesn’t want to eat American food, how pathetic!” Rosie spat.
“It is alright Rosie, please let me handle this.” Aria replied.
“You sure you can make it right?” Nora asked Aria in a rude tone.
“Yes, I did learn how to make Asian meal, what do you think of an Asian fried rice?”
Nora hummed in thought and Rosie scoffed. If it was left to her, she would teach this Asian a lesson to never forget, but her best
friend was just too compassionate and nice.
“Alright, if you can make that right, then I will have that but you better don’t mess it up.” Nora stated.
“Hey, you can’t speak to the boss’s wife like that, do you have manners at all?” Rosie fired.
“Rosie, please...” Aria pleaded. “Okay, you can go back to your room, I will make your food right away and send it to your room
when it is ready.”
“You don’t tell me what to do,” Nora scoffed and walked towards the stairs.
“Arrrgh!! I feel like tearing that woman apart!” Rosie spat.
“I know, but we have to be nice to her, and who knows, she might change her mind and decide to let Oliver be.” Aria replied and
sighed.
“Whatever you say, she just better watch her tongue, if she ever tries to treat you like a servant again, then I would deal with her
my own way.” Rosie stated in finality.
Aria chuckled and headed towards the kitchen on the down floor. “Come on Veronica and Zach, I would need your assistance in
the kitchen. Mary, please go stay with my baby,” Arianna instructed.
“Alright ma,” the servants replied simultaneously.
“What about me Miss Gomez, what am I supposed to do?” Rosie asked with a smile.
“Don’t be silly, just come with me and keep me company with your steamy stories,” Aria replied and they laughed.
