Chapter 39 - Learn to accept kindness (1/2)
Katia discussed the details about the artworks she produced and Finland listened wholeheartedly. She was amazed to see how perfect the beautiful girl in front of her looked.
Katia not only had the appearance of a nobleman's daughter, she was also very talented. Like Yayoi Kusama, she had produced various paintings, designs, sculptures and installation arts with different genres. Not many people would expect that such rare and creative talents were hidden behind this beautiful face.
Finland couldn't help comparing Katia to herself. She did not have such prominent talent and her beauty was nowhere close to Katia's...
What did Caspar see in me? she thought to herself.
Was the man still feeling sorry for me?
Finland's wandering mind returned to the present when Katia invited her and Jean for dinner in her apartment.
”Thank you very much for inviting me to this pleasant dinner... It was very nice and refreshing to chat with you guys. We must meet again while Jean is still in Singapore. I wish to invite you two to my apartment this weekend. I can cook dinner, or we can invite a professional chef.”
”We already have plans for this weekend,” Jean said quickly. ”I have a mission to teach Finland to have fun, so she can enjoy life instead of only focusing on work.”
”Oh, what's the plan?”
”We will go to Universal Studios.”
”Oh, I've never been to Universal Studios,” Katia said sadly. ”I've never had a friend I could invite to an amusement park.”
”You can come with us! The more the merrier, that's what they always say,” Jean turned to Finland, ”Can we go to Universal Studios this Saturday?”
Finland could not say no because she had promised him to learn how to have fun. ”OK.”
”Wow... that would be nice.” Katia looked very happy because Jean invited her to come along.
”Thank you.”
Katia was a very pleasant person. She was beautiful, smart, elegant, and very easy to get along with.
During the short dinner they had, Finland felt like she had known the girl for a long time. She was relieved to know that Katia did not discuss her relationship with Caspar at all. She wouldn't have known how to respond if that topic were to come up.
Finland arrived home at 10 pm and found Caspar waiting for her on the terrace of her pavilion, working. This guy was definitely more workaholic than herself, she thought.
”How was the dinner?” Caspar asked, closing his laptop when he saw Finland arrive.
