Ch 6
Howdy folks and Happy New Year! I know it’s been a while since I last updated…actually the last time I updated was last year (gasps). Anyways, I should refresh your memory on my fanfic. First off, we’ve introduced many of characters, probably the majority…and we have a mystery man. So far, Ron had finished his interview and seemed to have impressed everyone present…which means that things are going according to plan. We’ve taken a look at Tavia, and how she is as a person…as well as how her parents feel about her. Oh, and let’s not forget that Ron has met Tavia and they seem to have gotten off to a horrible start
Now you’re probably wondering…how is this story going to get even more interesting? Well…let us all find out as we embark unto this story together…
==
A surge of happiness ran through her body as she told him he was hired…this only meant that she is a bit closer to finding out the truth.
A smile was now plastered on Ron’s face as he wiped away that single tear that won everyone in the room over. Ron was very impressed with his own performance, and so were most people in the room. As he stood there thanking everyone modestly, he quickly analyzed each person, as he did during the interview. These people were not ordinary people, each one of them had their own motives…and for some reason he found out that the most innocent of them all was Linda, the one who had asked for help to begin with.
What he didn’t understand was why someone so innocent and naive would even suspect of something so grand. This was something he wanted to find out…from her, himself. After he had finished thanking and shaking hands with everyone present he left the board room and was on his way out of Eclipse Enterprise. With his phone in hand, he immediately called ‘home’ to inform his ‘parents’ of his achievement…once that was done…he walked over to a little flower shop, owned by Tavia Yeung…
He walked in looking at the flowers deciding which he should send to Nancy to tell her of the great news. Even though this was just part of his role, he had to make it realistic…and buying flowers for his ‘girlfriend’ only fit the description of a good boyfriend. As he was looking through the variety of flowers around the shop, someone had approached him.
Macy: Hi there, how can I help you, sir?
Ron looked at her and smiled: I’m trying to decide which type of flower to send to my girlfriend
Macy: well…I would suggest roses, maybe pink or red…depending on your preference really
Ron: Actually…do you have champagne coloured roses by any chance? My girlfriend always said she really liked those
Macy: Of course we do…they’re right back here…
Ron: That’s great…could you deliver them today, so she could get them before she leaves work?
Macy: You’re not going to give them to her yourself?
Ron shook his head: I think sending them to her is more romantic…and then I can pick her up after work…and see her walk out with my bouquet
Macy: I guess we can do that…let me go inside and ask my boss
Ron: Sure thing…I’ll wait here then
A few minutes later Macy had walked back out with Tavia beside her.
Tavia: It’s you again
Macy: You two know each other? Boss, is he your boyfriend?
Tavia: In his dreams. Anyways, what are you doing here? Do you want me to call the cops?
Ron: Whoa, calm down there miss…I wasn’t stalking you earlier today…I’m just new in town and asked you for directions…and now that my job interview is over, and was a success I thought I’d send my girlfriend a bouquet of flowers thanking her supporting me through all these years…
Macy: Boss…I think you’re over-reacting…he’s just here getting flowers for his girlfriend
Tavia: You’re so naïve Macy…that’s what he WANTS you to believe
Ron took out his wallet to show both Tavia and Macy a picture he took with Nancy
Ron: That’s my girlfriend…so…is it possible to get a bouquet delivered to her today?
Tavia: Well…first I need to check if the place your girlfriend works at, actually exists and then we’ll talk
Ron chuckled: Sure…if that makes you feel less paranoid…
He gave Macy, Nancy’s business card…and Macy called the place like Tavia had insisted, confirming that she works there
Macy: boss…he’s telling the truth…his girlfriend does work there
Tavia: Fine…then the delivery can be made
Ron: Thank you…well…aren’t you going to give me a card or something so I could write a message to her?
Macy: Oh, right…here you are sir, I’ll prepare the bouquet and personally deliver it there
Ron smiled: Thank you…at least some people in this world are nice
Tavia: Excuse me?
Ron looked at her: I don’t know what gave you the impression that I was stalking you, but I can assure you that I have a life and a job…and stalking you would be a waste of my time
Macy let out an audible laugh
Tavia: Well…I guess I was wrong for accusing you
Macy muttered: You were wrong…
Tavia: I’m sorry?
Ron smiled: Apology accepted…oh by the way…I was just hired by Eclipse Enterprise so…if you see me around this area don’t assume I’m here to stalk you or see you…
Macy couldn’t hold in her laughter any longer
Ron smiled: Well…I should pay for the bouquet and the delivery charges…and then I’ll be on my way
Tavia: well…since I misunderstood you, it’s on the house
Ron: Why thank you…I guess I’ll see you around then (he winked at her before leaving the shop)
Macy was in the back room preparing the bouquet and giggling to herself. She had never seen her ‘nice’ boss so worked up like today.
Tavia walked in: What’s so funny?
Macy: oh nothing...
Tavia tried to raise an eyebrow but failed
Macy: Ok fine...since you’re such a great boss and all...I thought...he was your boyfriend
Tavia looked outraged: What?
Macy: For some reason he seemed perfect for you...totally your cup of tea
Tavia: What? You must be out of your mind...how can a guy like him, be MY cup of tea?
Macy: I don’t know...it was this vibe I was getting off of him and plus he’s good looking, and seems really genuine...and the way you reacted once you saw him...well...it was like you two were a couple who got into this huge fight...I don’t know...I’m just saying things now
Tavia: Well...don’t you ever say something like that again...
Macy: ok boss...anyways the bouquet’s done...should I go and deliver it now?
Tavia: Sure...do as you please...but don’t forget the card
Tavia went out to pick up the tiny card that was left on the counter by Ron...and out of curiosity she read the content.
~ Card~
To Nancy:
Guess what? I just got the job at Eclipse Enterprise, and it’s due to your support.
Love you,
Ron
~ End~
Tavia muttering to herself: Eclipse Enterprise...I wonder how she’s doing...(she heaved a sigh)
~ Ng Residence~
Both Michelle and Wong Ching were very happy with the result from the interview...this meant that the first step in the operation was successfully completed and they will have a chance to crack the case. Wong Ching sat in his usual seat on the couch watching yet another TVB series
Wong Ching: You know...do you really think that Tavia Yeung is as evil as Kam Ling?
Michelle: I don’t think anyone can be as evil as Kam Ling...nor can anyone be as nice as Sam Ho...I really hate these unrealistic characters. I never understood what TVB was trying to portray
Wong Ching laughed: TVB isn’t trying to portray anything...they actually told us through that Sam Ho that if you speak nice words and do good deeds...good things come your way...such a bunch of bull
Michelle: Wow old man, I think I can agree with you there
Wong Ching: Did you call me an old man? And you think you’re so young? You know people should accept how old they are...and TVB should do that too...making that Yuen Chui-wan wear those colours that were more befitting for someone decades younger
Michelle: It’s always about criticizing TVB with you, isn’t it?
Wong Ching: Oh please...I criticize you plenty...and besides there are things I like in TVB series...that other show...Born Rich with the poor rating was a bit better...I think...maybe I am getting old...I don’t even remember how it was
Michelle: That Rene was really good...
Wong Ching laughed: I realized something from watching these series...
Michelle: And what’s that?
Wong Ching: Women are dangerous...and so...honey, I love you (he looked at his wife and smiled)
