Chapter 203 - Getting Drunk
The door suddenly rang and Aria went to see who it was so late at night . When she looked at the small hole in the door she saw that it was Florence .
\' Florence ?!.....Oh , yeah ! He told me that he would drop by before I left the castle . I wonder what he wants ?! \' thought Aria then put her hand at the the door handle .
The moment she lightly opened the door a little she realized that she was wearing a towel .
" What the hell ?!!!!! " said Aria and closed the door in an instant .
Florence remained surprised when Aria closed the door in a hurry .
" Mmm...Aria ?! " said Florence with a weird smile .
" I am sorry ! Please give me two minutes ! " said Aria with a serious tone and rushed to her room .
\' I really am such a fool sometimes ! How could I think to open the door when I am wearing just a towel . At least...luckily that I realized it fast , or it would have been very embarrassing . \' thought Aria while wearing her pajamas .
After wearing her pajamas properly , she went to the door and opened it . Florence looked at her with a smile and kept his hands behind his back .
" Am I allowed to enter now ?! " asked Florence with a smile .
" I am sorry for closing the door suddenly like that . Please don\'t mind it ! " said Aria with a nervous smile .
" No worries ! " said Florence .
" So , what did you want to talk about ?! " asked Aria with an awkward smile while remembering her foolishness .
" I noticed that you were in a bad mood and.....as your friend , I wanted to help you cheer up a bit . " said Florence and took the bags with beer behind his back out with an excited smile .
Aria laughed a little when she saw the bags with beer and chips .
" Wanna have a drink ?!....Believe me ! Everything gets better after a few drinks . " said Florence with a smile .
" You are the doctor , so I shall believe your words . " said Aria with a smile and invited Florence in .
When Florence entered , he saw Aden who was looking at the cartoons at the tv . He placed the bags on the table while Aria went to get the beer opener . Florence went near Aden and patted his head .
" Hello Aden ! " said Florence .
Aden looked at him surprised and got up from his place then went and hugged Aria . Aria looked at him surprised then looked at Florence .
" Dada , badana ! " said Aden with a wary expression while staring at Florence .
The both of them laughed in a shy way when they heard saw Aden\'s action and Florence went near him .
" Aden , I am sorry for scaring you a while ago . I will not take your sister away from you . We will stay here together . Can you forgive me for my harsh smiles ?! " said Florence and extended his hand towards Aden .
" Dada ! " said Aden with a smile and grabbed Florence\'s hand then went back to watch cartoons .
When Aden went back to his place , Florence noticed that Aria was smiling at him with a warm smile .
" What ?! " asked Florence with a smile .
" Nothing...I....I just...am not used to see people like you . So caring and understanding . It really makes me feel at ease and happy . " said Aria with a sad smile .
" Hey..... " said Florence with a docile tone then put his hands on Aria\'s shoulder .
" Aden is very smart.....unlike the other kids . He will definitely get better and become like any other kid in his age . He will talk with you and do a lot of things with you . You just need to be a bit more patient . Trust me Aria , everything will be fine . I am a doctor . I know what I am saying . " said Florence with a sweet tone and smile .
Aria suddenly felt a nice sense of security and a warm feeling that embraced her heart . She was really touched by Florence\'s words and her heart even skipped a beat when she looked at Florence\'s sincere expression .
\' He is such a good person . It feels nice to hear someone who doesn\'t judge people . A person like him....he is...simply amazing . \' thought Aria with a smile .
" Florence ! Thank you ! Thank you a lot about your words . They mean a lot to me . I am very lucky to have a friend like you . " said Aria with a warm smile which made Florence\'s heart beat .
" Let drink now ! " said Aria and went to get the beers in the table then took Florence\'s hand and sat him on the table in the living room .
She took the glasses then brought them to the table .
" We can drink them from the cans . " said Florence .
" I have sensitive teeth. I rarely drink anything without putting it in a glass and using the cannon-bit. " said Aria .
" Ouuu...Okay ! Let\'s drink ! " said Florence and th both of them started to drink while Aden watched tv .
Aria started to tell Florence about her meeting with the queen . Florence laughed a lot when he heard it . When Aria started to tell him about the issue with the ministers , Florence looked at her with an amazed expression .
" Did you really do that ?! " asked Florence with disbelief .
" Yeah ! Ace was the one who found that video and I managed to make that minister lose all his image . You should have seen his face . It was.....simply....pale from the huge shock . Hahahaha ! " said Aria with a laugh .
" Ace ?! Is he.... ?! " asked Florence .
" He is my other brother . A first year student at the university of Cambridge . " said Aria with a proud tone .
" He must be a clever kid . " said Florence .
" Not only is he clever , but he is handsome too....Just like you . " said Aria with a smile .
" Wow ! Thanks for the compliment ! " said Florence .
" You are welcome ! " said Aria and continued to drink .
" I am curious about something....You told me how you met Helios Castejo but I wonder.....how did you manage to sign a contract to work for him ?! Rumors say that the people who work at the Castejo companies are all considered the best in their field . In your case Aria....you are a good girl but you dropped out of school the last semester . Don\'t take me wrong ! I am just saying because it\'s unusual for him to hire someone who doesn\'t have at least ten degrees with excellent marks . " said Florence .
" I was tricked by my brother to work for this guy . Signing a contract with him was the worst decision in my life . He is a devil ! A self centered , arrogant asshole ! " said Aria and drinked the anothe can of beer .
" I know that he is arrogant but....to have you angered so much , to the point where yoo would actually say asshole...?!.... " said Florence and tried to get the can of beer next to her away .
" You know that bastard donkey ?! " asked Aria .
" Yeah ?!....Wait ! Donkey ?!!!! " said Florence shocked .
" Whatever ! I don\'t wanna think about him or I will get very angry ! Although you know him , don\'t get too close with him Florence . You are like a rare gem in this scrupulous world with bad men . I don\'t want you to get infected by his bad behavior ! " said Aria with a dizzy expression .
" A rare gem ?! For real ?! " asked Florence extremely surprised .
" Of course ! " said Aria .
Florence felt happy when he heard the way Aria thought of him . Florence noticed that Aden had fallen asleep on the couch and Aria who was a bit dizzy from the beer .
\' I remember her saying that she has a good tolerance to alcohol but Aria looks like she\'s a bit drunk . I better get Aden to his bed so that he won\'t be disturbed by our noise . \' thought Florence and got up from his place then took Aden in his arms and went to his bedroom .
Aria looked at them with a satisfied smile .
After covering Aden with the blanket , Florence closed the door and went to Aria .
" He is sleeping soundly . " said Florence .
" Thank you for taking him to his bed . You know.....you are the perfect dream husband of every girl . I don\'t know who\'s stupid enough not to wanna marry you on the first blind date ! Either you avoid them on your own or the girls you have had a blind date with were blind ones . Rich , smart , strong and caring . Who wouldn\'t want a piece of god\'s work who\'s so perfect just like this ?! " said Aria and Florence couldn\'t stop laughing .
" Do you really think so ?! " asked Florence with his eyes a bit teary from the hard laughing .
" Of course ! I should give doctor Flaubert and his wife a gift for having produced a person like you . " said Aria and her face became a bit red from the drinking .
" They would like to hear you say this . " said Florence .
" Your parents are amazing people ! And you are a great person too . Thank you for helping me with Aden today . When a similiar situation happend in the past , I would be dragging him home after he had hitted me a couple of times . This time , he didn\'t pull my hair and is considered a progress . " said Aria with a smile .
" Is he always this agitated ?! " asked Florence .
" Most of the time ! Peopel would urge me to get jim out of there just like president Castejo did today . I try ! I try to talk to him but he just doesn\'t listen to me . They don\'t understand his problem and that\'s why they talk freely like that . People.....are really mean and don\'t try to understand the other person\'s problem at all . " said Aria and got up .
" Aria ! You don\'t need to listen to them . " said Florence .
" When I hear those coments , I always am very insecure whether he will be fully cured one day or not . " said Aria .
" He will be cured ! All the people who said something bad to him will realize that they shouldn\'t have spoken like that with him because he will become a wonderful person who will surpass all of them . " said Florence .
"Thank you Florence , I am very touched by your words . I am glad that I listened to doctor Flaubert\'s words and went to tabt blind date . It\'s one of the most beautiful things that have happened in my life . " said Aria with a smile and red expression .
\' She\'s so honest when she\'s drunk ! She has dranked a lot . I better send her to her room so that she could sleep . \' thoughg Florence and tried to take the can of ber from Aria\'s hand .
" Aaaa.....What are you doing ?! " asked Aria drunk .
" I.....nothing ! I just thought that you need to go to sleep sine it is getting late . Also you need to rest . " said Florence and getly touched her hand .
" Florence ! You are a good guy but I think thay bastard donkey\'s name changed you . Why wanna tob my beer ?! I want to continue drinking . " said Aria .
" I know but you ard already very drunk . We willl drnk again tomorrow so for now.....How about a good sleep ?! " said Florence .
" No ! " said Aria and left the beer in the table .
" Aria.... " said Florence when he saw that she wasn\'t able to walk staright .
Aria walked for ahead but instead of walking staright she stepped on one of Aden\'s toys and was ready to fall .
" Aria ! " said Florence and rushed to catch her .
