Chapter 403: A Short Trip (1/2)

She was so sexy and even the formal business suit and skirt did nothing to hide her sensuous charm.

”You're not hearing me, Seth! This is serious! I went to personally see the mayor and all I saw were people with the same intent as I do.

They also had no clue. An announcement was made by the office that they were still trying to contact anyone about what exactly happened.” Adriana said in passion as if her words could rouse me up from my relaxed state.

”What a pitiful creature.” I thought amusingly.

”Calm down. I'm sure an answer will be given by the end of the day. Why don't you prepare lunch while I get myself cleaned up? Everything is going to be okay. I promise you, Adriana.” My gentle voice soothed the anxiety out of my girlfriend.

”Honey! Come down now. Lunch is ready!” I heard the voice of my gullible girlfriend as I was drying myself with a towel.

”Be right there, honey!” I yelled back and got a robe. Then unhurriedly went down the stairs towards our dining area.

”Hmmm... That smells tasty, honey! Your cooking always reminds me why I fell in love with you. I could stay here with you forever and asked for nothing but you alone.” Lies came off my mouth in droves. Nobody ever got tired of praises.

”Ohhh... That's sweet of you, honey! I could say the same. You complete me, my dashing debonair. And I love you so much!” Adriana pledged and I could see the illusion of love and romance twinkle in her eyes.

”A fool. HAHAHA!” I laughed inside and wondered at the naivety of humanity.

”Let's eat, honey.” I said as I sat down and began filling a plate for Adriana. The play never ends, I thought delightedly.

”I fear for my parents, honey. I think we should go there and visit them.” Adriana said after she merely toyed with her food. She got no appetite because of all the troubling things she feared might come out of this situation.

”They'll be fine, honey. But I know you won't get satisfied with only that. We'll come get them today, okay?” I assured the beautiful dove in my sight.

”Thank you, Seth. It would give me peace of mind to have them here with us until all of this confusion straightens out.” Adriana looked at me like I was an angel complete with halos and wings.

She loved her parents and she could not leave them alone especially with how things were escalating. Her intuition told her that this was going to get worse before it gets better.

”I worry for them too, honey.” I smiled and it worked magic unto the object of my attention. I could have done anything to her at that moment and she would've gladly obliged with eagerness.
