CHAPTER 28
"Nothing ever becomes real 'til it is experienced."
---John Keats
KEIRA'S POV
After Aira left, I went on and arrange all the files and arranged it in an orderly manner. The way how I want things to get done. Suddenly, I remembered Edward. He is also doing the same, he is so organized, which I never expect him to be. But it impressed me so much, both of us has the same time but he accomplish much more than what is usual. But I guess that is how he is supposed to be. He is running a business but then he still manage to have a quality time with me. My Dad though seems be different than Edward. Maybe because they are on a different level with their career, that is why.
"I guess that's it!" I said to myself as I wrapped up and gather all my things and left. I make my way to my Dad's office where Aira said she would be in. I don't know if Dad will be able to join us for lunch. But I hope he does.
"Goodmorning, ma'am!" I was greeted by my Dad's secretary when I arrived at his office.
"Hey, is Aira still in?" I asked and smile politely.
"Yes ma'am, I will just inform Mr. Soarez." She said and took up the phone when I stopped her.
"It's alright, I will just pop in. I'm sure he won't mind." I said and winked at her as I made my way inside Dad's office.
"Hi," I said when I made my way inside. I saw Dad and Aira happily talking so I went on and greeted Dad.
"Hey, Dad! Looking good huh?!" I said as I kissed and hugged him.
"Thank you Dear, so two of you will go on somewhere?" He asked me looking at me smiling
"Yes, Dad, would you want to come and join us?" I asked him as I settle myself on a seat close with him.
"No, this old man will be a burden if I go with you. Better enjoy yourselves." Dad said eyeing at me and Aira.
"Oh come on Dad, just join us for lunch then you can go to office later. It won't take much time." Aira suggested while nibbling her nails.
"Hey, young lady. You are not so young anymore, stop doing that!" My dad told Aira, which made Aira and I giggle.
"You are so dead," I told Aira as I laugh.
"Shut up!" She mumbled chuckling at my comment.
"Okay, Dad, seriously, you can come with us. It will be just a normal lunch like what we used to then go back to the office. Though, I intend to do something after. I may not be able to return back to office as well. Aira and I have plans after so we have time for the three of us. What do you say?" I told Dad as I hold his right hand making my puppy dog eyes.
"Please Dad, come with us." Aira pleaded with me holding Dad's other hands.
"Okay, how can I say no, when my two princesses are making their puppy dog eyes on me. " He said after a deep breathe.
"Yey! " Aira and I both exclaimed as we both hug Dad in each other side.
RESTAURANT
Aira, Dad and I decided to eat in our favorite restaurant at the Centro Capital in Town. We were greeted politely as we entered and seated at our favorite seat. The restaurant was inside of a 5 star hotel, It does not belong to us but for a change. The owner of the hotel is our Dad's friend though.
We helped Dad to seat in his chair and sat down on ours and settled down.
"Keira, what about Edward? What he will be having for lunch today?" Dad asked me.
"Oh God, I forgot to ask him. I was so consumed before Aira came, and I got so excited to eat out with her. " I said looking for my phone in my bag.
" It's alright Dad, For sure he won't mind. He took Keira from us for more than a month having lunch with her won't make a difference." Aira said in her normally annoyed tone.
"No Aira, that is not good. She still need to inform her husband." Dad said as he looked at Aira.
"Yes, Dad, It's just I can't---I can't find my phone. Oh gosh! How can I be so careless, I think I left my mobile in the office!" I told Dad scratching my head and moved a bit fixing the way that I am sitting.
"Here dummy, use my phone." Aira handed me her phone.
"Oh, thanks!" I said as I started to contact Edward's number. It wasn't even ringing.
"Maybe he is in a meeting now. " I told both of them
"How can you be so stupe to leave your phone in the office Keira." Aira scolded me.
"It's alright. I will just let him know once I reach the office." Dad said stopping us.
"I guess he won't mind, anyway, we will see each other in the night so it will be fine. " I said smiling to both of them.
"Of course, he should be fine, Otherwise he will be sleeping in the guest room. He would not want his staff to know about that." Aira said laughing as the pre ordered food is already being served in our table.
"Aira, you should find someone for your own. You are not getting any younger." My Dad told Aira coolly but I know he is mocking her.
"Come on Dad, the food is being served, Which one do you want to be close to you." Aira asked him instead.
"Don't change the topic young lady, of course I want my order to be with me. What were you thinking we are not in a buffet." Dad said as the server placed the salmon and vegetable to my Dad's side.
"No I mean, would you also want some steak? The steak here is really good Dad." Aira said cutting her huge piece of sirloin steak.
"Since when did you liked steak?" I asked Aira in amusement. She is always eating salad most of the time, and it is the first time I saw her ordering some steak.
"Why? It's good Keira, you should try some once in a while. " Aira said as she took a piece and started eating.
"Is it? I will next time. " I said as I started eating my tuna salad.
" Young lady, don't change the subject. When are you going to get serious and give me an heir." Dad probed Aira as he fixed some napkin on his lap.
"Dad, if you want an heir, why don't you ask Keira. She can make for you in an instant." Aira answered non chalantly as she continued eating her steak.
I wasn't able to answer with her remarks, but instead chocked from it. I coughed like crazy and Aira gave me some water.
"Here have some. " Aira said as she handed me some water.
"What is wrong Keira? " Dad asked as if he didn't know why I reacted that way,
"Nothing Dad, I think it will be better to ask Edward about this." I answered casually. Having thoughts of babies makes me feel something weird.
"Dear Sister, Don't worry. You will have the courage when you get there." Aira said trying to console me but honestly making me feel worse.
