Someone Like You: Chapter 6

Hi there, it's been a while since I updated...and I do apologize for my absence. Writer's block seems to be quite fond of me since it visits me quite often...but...it's not exactly a mutual fondness...so...now that it has left, I've decided to post an update.

================


NOTE: Please reread chapter 5 to remind yourself of what went on. (I'm kinda lazy to write a recap lol)

Ron recognized the voice immediately and turned around with a smile.

Ron: Tavia

Tavia: I knew it was you

Ron: Doing some shopping?

Tavia: Yup...and...are you on a date?

Ron chuckled: Ya...you caught me...this is my girlfriend Leila, Leila this is a good friend of mine Tavia

Leila: Nice to meet you

Tavia: Nice to meet you too

Ron: so, how’s everything?

Tavia: It’s been pretty good...I don’t think I’ve seen you since the wedding

Ron: Ya...I was busy and stuff like that

Tavia: I heard from your mom that you sold your project and made some money

Ron: Ya...I did that...and then I took a little vacation, visited a few friends and stuff...

Tavia: But you didn’t think about visiting me and Chris?

Ron smiled: Well...I went away on my vacation...so...

Tavia: Uh huh...so how did you and Leila meet?

Leila tugged Ron’s shirt and he knew that it was her turn to talk

Leila: He doesn’t like to admit the fact that we met online

Tavia: Online? Like a dating site?

Leila: No...I was selling this model plane and he was the highest bidder so we met...and ya...

Tavia: Model planes...I can’t believe you’re still into that stuff

Ron: Some people don’t change...

Tavia: Or is it that some people just don’t grow up

Ron chuckled: Depends on the perspective...

Ron looked down at his watch

Ron: Hey, it’s great seeing you again, but Leila and I we have a table reserved at La Palette so...

Tavia: Right, sorry...I’ll see you soon, you know what, you and Leila should come over for a BBQ or something

Ron: Ya...I’ll call you

Tavia: That sounds great, bye

The two of them said their goodbyes and walked off

Leila: So...Ron...

Ron: What?

Leila: Nothing

Ron: You’re not going to ask?

Leila: Nope, if you want to tell me, you will...

Ron: Ok good, I don’t want to tell you...so I won’t

Leila: Ugh, you’re a terrible boyfriend

Ron: Oh, so you’re using that now...

Ron suddenly stopped and he closed in on her, his lips barely touching hers...he smiled and then whispered ‘I can hear your heart beating pretty fast’ then he planted a light kiss on her cheek before pulling away

Leila’s cheeks turned pink and she was flustered as ever: That’s harassment

Ron smiled: I’m your boyfriend

Leila: Ok...then I demand to hear the story between you and Tavia

Ron: Fair enough...but can we cuddle after? (He broke out into laughter)

Leila looked at him: real funny

Ron: It was worth a shot

Leila: So...story...

Ron: Come on...I’ll tell you on the car...

~ One week later~

~ Serendipity ~

Krystal: Leila, when Ron comes in tell him that the two of you have a new client today...and she’s a bit demanding...so please, be nice

Leila: What is that supposed to mean?

Krystal: You’re not exactly the best people person, so...just be nice

Leila: Of course...boss

Krystal smiled: You’re beginning to sound like my little brother...and speak of the devil

Ron came walking in with his eyes apparently glued to the screen of phone, when he looked up and saw Krystal standing there he immediately walked over

Ron: Krystal, look at Ella’s new ass

Krystal: What?

Ron showed her his phone: Oh come on...you love her asses

Krystal after looking at the screen finally figured out what he was talking about

Krystal: Really Ron? You could’ve said, look Krystal, Ella bought another donkey for her farm...or something...what if the clients were here?

Ron: Then they would think that I’m acquainted to someone who just had their behind done?

Leila: Or they think you’re a pervert

Ron: By they, you must’ve meant you...tsk tsk...

Krystal: I agree with Leila...and if our clients were here they’d probably walk out

Ron: Oh please...

Krystal: Anyways, you two have a new client today, she’s somewhat demanding so...

Ron smiled: Be nice?

Krystal looked at Ron: No flirting

Ron: Is that code for ‘she’s pretty’

Krystal: No...it’s code for ‘do your job’

Ron shrugged: It’s not like I can flirt with my ‘girlfriend’ next to me (he put his arm around her shoulders)

Leila shrugged his arm off: Don’t worry, I’ll keep him in line

Krystal smiled: I’m glad I paired the two of you up (She started to walk away)

Ron: Wait...

Krystal: What is it now?

Ron: How do you know she’s demanding?

Krystal: As the boss, you do realize that I either go through the online profiles of the prospective clients or I talk to them over the phone prior to setting up an appointment with them, right?

Ron nodded: Right, ok...that makes sense

Krystal: Sometimes I wonder if that accident you had really had any other long term effects on you...

Ron smiled: It probably did...but, the important thing is that I’m still as handsome as ever, right sis?

Krystal placed her hand on her brother’s head and messed up his hair: Sure little brother, sure

She then walked off to her office leaving the two of them standing there

Leila: So...what accident is she talking about?

Ron: Huh?

Leila: the accident?

Ron: Oh...it’s not important...and besides I got in to far too many accidents to remember all of them anyways

Leila: Are you being serious?

Ron looked at her: Yup...I even got shot once before...but that’s a long story

Leila: Got shot?

Ron: Yup

Leila: Um...ok...anyways...we should go and prep the paperwork for the client and go through her file before she gets here

Ron: Good idea
