3 Aily Fields (2/2)
After another ten minutes of crying the girl finally stopped. This time Reed stepped away and look at the girl and asked her. ”What's your name and how old are you”
”My name is Aily Fields, I'm six years old but in a month I turn seven years old.” Aily replied back with her eyes still read due to all the crying.
”Well Aily, my name is Reed. And I'm pretty sure that your hungry and I am as well, so lets go eat” Reed then took her hand and started walking to the restaurant without waiting for her reply.
The restaurant they went to was called Flower Garden. Upon entering the restaurant they were welcomed by a waitress. One of the bodyguards took charge and asked for a private room. The Flower Garden was a place of the rich and so when the waitress saw Reed wearing expensive clothing and protected by bodyguards she knew he was a important person.
But when she saw Aily in poor clothing and looked dirty she couldn't help but look at Reed who was holding her hand. But being an experienced waitress she ignored it and did what she was tasked to do and led Reed's group to a private room.
As Reed was following the waitress to the private room he felt some people staring at him. He sensed killing intent from those people and couldn't help but smirk a little as he thought to himself
”I didn't think that I was going to kill people so early and at such a young age as well. It seems that the other great families feel threatened and want to kill me before I grow up.”
”What are you smiling about” Aily asked, seeing that Reed smirked out of nowhere and for no reason.
”Oh, it's because I was thinking of the good food we're about to eat. And as a celebration for joining me, you get to eat as much as you want.”
Aily shook her head left and right ”No I can't do that to you Reed. What if you get into trouble”
”If I don't see you eat until your sick of food today I will not allow you to follow me anymore.” Reed threatened Aily.
”No I'll eat”
”Good” Reed rubbed Aily head and smiled. Even though Aily was threatened by Reed, he did it so for her and she understood it. She felt warm in her heart and smiled.
Once the entered the private room, Aily and Reed sat down on the chairs around the table while the bodyguards stood beside the door in case some intruder came in to attack Reed. Seeing the bodyguards not sitting down as well, he asked them to sit but they refused. He asked a few more time and they still refused.
It was till the point where he threatened the bodyguards that he would tell his father that they did a terrible and should be fired was when they finally submitted and sat down with them. In reality the guards were pretty hungry like Reed but their job as bodyguards prevented them from joining them. Plus the the difference in status stopped them as well.
Reed knew this as well, that was why he threatened them. Plus Reed knew that there was no one that would want to intrude into the room except for the waiter or waitress when they deliver food. That was why he invited them to sit down with him. Even if someone did want to intrude they would have to be insane.
All of his bodyguards were Silver rank with one being the captain of all the bodyguards being a Gold Rank. The intruder would be immediately subdued. After getting the food they ordered, everyone ate happily as they conversed among each other. They all ate at a normal pace except for Aily who was eating like a demon, finishing a bowl of food in seconds then refilling it again to the brim for her to devour.
Reed couldn't help but feel scared of her choking to death so he told her to slow down and gave her water to digest. Seeing that Aily listened to him and was now drinking water to digest Reed thought ” I know I told you to eat till your sick of food, but I never told you eat so fast to point you that you would choke.”
Even thought he thought what he thought, Reed knew that the real reason Aily was eating so much and fast wasn't because of his threat. It was because she hasn't had anything to good to eat in a long time.
After ensuring that Aily was eating at a slower pace Reed resumed back to eating the food on his own plate. After 30 minutes of eating, Reed finally finished. He then cleaned up his face with a napkin and looked at the door across from him with killing intent emanating from inside him.
