Someone Like You: Ch 4

Howdy folks,

FIRST POST OF THE YEAR!!! HAPPY NEW YEAR! and HAPPY LUNAR NEW YEAR!!!It’s been a while, but I’m back and I will be updating this fanfic properly. Let’s get started.

==

The two of them walked out of the tea shop and Ron led the way. Four blocks later they were standing in front of this small ice cream shop.

Ron: Come on

Leila: You made me walk all this way for some ice cream?

Ron: Yup...but not just any ice cream...the best ice cream in a 30 mile radius

Leila: Really?

Ron: Come on...give it a try

After finishing her ice cream, she noticed that he was staring at her...

Leila: What is it?

Ron: What do you think?

Leila: It was ok

Ron: Ok? And yet you were really focused in finishing the ice cream

Leila: Well...I don’t like it when my ice cream melts

Ron: Uh huh...well...I’m glad you enjoyed it

Leila: I never said I enjoyed it

Ron chuckled: Of course...the heiress would never admit to something like that...anyways, since this is apparently our first date...we should get to know each other, right? Like from the beginning...

Leila: Again?

Ron: Why not? We have lots of time to kill...unless you’re awfully sick of seeing my face, which, if you are...don’t tell me

Leila: Fine...we’ll start over.

Ron: Ok, great. I’m Ron Ng

Leila: I’m Leila Tong

Ron: As in the daughter of THE Mr. Tong of Tong Corp

Leila: I am...

Ron: Wow, it’s a pleasure to meet you Leila...so, why is an heiress like you on a date with a guy like me?

Leila smiled: Let’s just say I need a change of perspective

Ron: You have a lovely smile you know...

Leila: Thanks...so...Ron, what do you do?

Ron: Currently, I’m just helping out my sister...but before I was a pilot, then I went into business developing a few programs and stuff like that...how about you?

Leila: I went abroad to study, came back to work for my dad...but decided I need a change of scenery. So, you were a pilot?

Ron: Ya...you probably don’t believe it...but I was...and it didn’t work out

Leila: Ok...

Ron: You know, you’re not so bad...I feel like this is our first civilized conversation

Leila: Oh great...and we were doing so well too...

Ron: So, are you really working for my sister cause you want a change of scenery?

Leila: Were you really a pilot?

Ron: Of course I was

Leila: Sure you were...and as for me it’s the reason I provided to you earlier and the fact that I wanted a change of scenery

Ron: Not because you want to prove your daddy wrong?

Leila: Why do you think that?

Ron: Too many TVB series with my mom...or because a lot of rich people do that type of thing...not wanting to be type casted as someone who was born with a silver spoon in their mouths, not knowing how the world is, not practical...living in another world...

Leila: Oh, is that so?

Ron shrugged: It is...you’re not the first one I met who’s like that...nothing to be ashamed of

Leila: This coming from a guy who tells a girl he’s a pilot

Ron: WAS a pilot

Leila: Whatever, I’m leaving

Ron: You don’t even know where we are

Leila: I’ll call my family’s chauffer

Ron: This coming from the ‘I need a change of scenery’ person, why won’t you just call your Power Chan?

Leila: Bye

She walked out of the shop and made her call leaving Ron sitting there.

Leila ranting: I can’t believe I was having a decent conversation with that despicable guy. Why does he have to ruin things for? And where is this place? Never again will I follow him! So frustrating!!!

Ron walked out to hear her ranting aloud to herself

Ron: Not only are you judgemental, you’re slightly crazy too...fantastic

Leila: Why are you following me?

Ron: Oh? I didn’t know leaving the shop meant that I’m following you? You’re crazy

Leila: Why are you being so petty?

Ron: I’m being petty, you got to be kidding me...you’re the one who’s picking a fight

Leila: You’re the one who called me crazy

Ron: Talking to yourself is generally a symptom

Leila: I wouldn’t be ranting to myself if you were acting like a proper grownup and we had continued our civilized conversation...

Ron: Ok, so it’s my fault...fine...I guess I’m just a terrible person so, since you’re boyfriend is coming I should get going

Leila: My boyfriend?

Ron pointed at the car that was coming towards them, the license plate, as expected from rich people actually read the guy’s name

Leila: You can’t leave

Ron: Why not?

Leila: It’s...well...because...

Ron: Go on...

Leila looked at her watch: It’s only 3:30...our work day ends at 5...

Ron took a deep breath: Fine...

He walked over and embraced her and whispered

Ron: You win...this time

Leila smiled: Oh no, your sister said that we have to be a pair...so...

The car stopped, the man walked out and next thing Ron knew his left cheek was throbbing and he was on the floor

Power shouting: What are you doing with my fiancée?

=====

I almost forgot how fun it is to write an entire chapter filled with lots of dialogue and bickering. I’m sorry for the delay though, sometimes I just go through bouts of writer’s block...but now I’m back...I hope you enjoyed this update and will leave me a comment or two, cause I love reading your comments.

Also, I will be starting a new fanfic that will be posted once a month, until the end of this year...I’ll post a little something about that later. Oh, and I’ve noticed posts on the cbox about the new series with Ron and Linda. I have been watching that series and I thoroughly enjoy it, but I’m only on episode 8 or so, so I have a lot of catching up to do as well.

Anywho, remember to leave me a comment or comments and I WILL BE BACK!!! (Soon)

Randomness...OUT!!!
