Chapter 179 - There are alway the tests in life (1) (1/2)
Wirata told the taxi driver that she wanted to stop at the supermarket on the way to the apartment. There was a place that allowed small pets to go in with their owners.
She wanted to buy a few things, milk and coffee for example.
When being outside like this, she felt lonely. She missed him because of the habit that he had always been with her by her side. Why did she let the silly emotions attack her like this? The feelings of jealousy and painful memory. She should not let it hurt her at all. As it was not the present. It was the past and it's long gone.
”Oh ... I'm sorry.”
Wirata hurried to apologize when her trolley accidentally bumped into the back of an American woman.
”It's okay. No worries.”
She turned to said to Wirata and she was staring at her for a second.
”Um ... Are you Thai?”
She asked. Wirata nodded and gave her a smile.
”Yes. I am. How did you know?”
She was surprised that the lady could point out.
”Well, I am an American-Thai. I don't know but I think I could point out Asian people who are Thais who are Chinese and so on.”
”Realy? Wow! I am Wirata, by the way.”
Wirata introduced herself. She looked at the stunning woman in front of her. She looked so American with her long wavy brown hair tied up in ponytail style through the cap hole.
”My name is Amiya. Um, I don't know why but I have the feeling that I have seen you before. Let me think for a minute.”
Amiya said. She felt family with this face. But she just had just been here only over a month and had not met many people yet. Only when it was the party that her father held for her. Amiya widened her eyes when she thought about the party.
”Oh, I think I remember now! You are the lady who went to Santo's house with Stefan, right? I saw you from the window upstairs. Oh, I am Santo's daughter. Amiya O'Neal.”
Amiya said her full name, making Wirata widened her eyes in surprise. What a small world!
”Oh...Wow.”
Wirata exclaimed and could not find any more words to say. As far as she remembered, Santo O'Neal wanted to offer his young daughter to Stefan. And looking at the young beautiful lady in front of her. She was stunning and very attractive. The kind of woman that a man would turn to look twice when she walked passed.
What a night! Tonight, God is testing her strength for sure.
”Oh, I recalled that we left the party before you came down. So sorry about that. And how was your stomach that night? Your father said that you got a stomachache.”
Wirata asked with a polite gesture. She was thinking if Stefan stayed a little longer to meet with this young beautiful woman. What would be his reaction?
Amiya recalled that she saw how much Stefan cared for this woman. The way he watched her steps when they were walking up to the front terrace. And Amiya wondered if she knew about Santo's scam or not, the scam about offering Amiya to Stefan. She felt unease and she liked the woman with the puppy in her arms as she looked friendly and she was Thai. Amiya was missing Thailand to bits right now.
”May I ask? You are Stefan's date, right?”
Amiya reduced her voice down a little. But it was late at night and there were not many customers shopped at this time.
”Um, I am his fiancee.”
Wirata decided to tell the truth.
”Oh, that's great. And where is he right now? What are you doing out here at this time of the night?”
Amiya asked as she believed Stefan looked so protective with Wirata. But now she was here alone with the dog. It was a little not right in her opinions.
”Um, I just...”
Wirata was not sure if she could tell her personal stuff to Amiya. But somehow, she felt the sincerity through the young lady's expression.
”Well, you know what, I am staying at a small hotel around here. If you like to go to my room and we can have a chat properly.”
Amiya offered. Looking at Wirata, she could get that there was something off. The lady looked a bit upset.
Wirata considered it and looked at Summer in her arms.
”Does the hotel allow the guests to bring pets in?”
Wirata asked in an uncertain voice. Amiya reached for Summer's head and stroked gently.
”Yes. It is a pet-friendly hotel.”
Amiya answered. She looked at her watch, it was 11 o'clock. Amiya had to go out to shop late at night because she was afraid that the mafia Bernardo and his men also her own father would see her. That night after she had escaped from the jackass's car with his gun in her hand. She decided to stay and later. Her friend who was a CIA spy asked her to do a job for him. As she was a genius hacker when she was in England. The job was involved with powerful people in Amerca. So that was the reason she was still here right now.
Wirata sighed and looked at Amiya's face for a moment.
”That's great. Since it's late I will check in there too, if there is a room available for me.”
”There are two beds in my room. You can stay with me. Why have to waste money.”
Amiya said.
”Oh, no. I won't to that to you. Have you got everything you need?”
Wirata asked and looked at Amiya's trolley.
”Yes. Let's go!”
