The Unforgettable Story

The Unforgettable Story
Section 16


While enjoying dinner, they discuss the light things around the assessment of their respective food, the interior of the restaurant, and the service they have received so far. It's boring but Miles doesn't feel it when he's with her.


Their next conversation turned to their opinions on various types of music, singers, films to actors and actresses. Miles began to realize that the woman was very careful. No conversation leads to personal things. Talking about music and movies, they do not mention which one is the favorite of each.


Is that why he didn't want them to get acquainted with his real name? Because he doesn't want them to talk about personal things? Butwhy? Is it true that he just feels uncomfortable sharing personal information with people he doesn't know? Or is there a reason for more than that?


“You want dessert?” ask Miles while looking at the food list.


“You still want to eat again after the two servings?” ask Juliett doesn't believe it.


“Hey, I'm a boy. I'm allowed to eat as much as I want.” Miles defended himself.


“Because I'm female, I'm not allowed to eat as much as I want?” his reply.


“Are you a female activist?” miles pretended to be scared. Juliett shook his head while laughing amusedly. “Pecan pie's. What do you want to order?”


“Blueberry cheese cake. Thank you.” he said finally.


The waiter immediately came to see Miles raising his hand. He recorded their orders and left them again. Miles smiled meaningfully at Juliett and brought his body closer together. “So, tell me. You eat so much but your body is not fat. What secret? I'm not asking you anything personal, you have to answer it.”


“No.” He's laughing a little. “This is not my usual weight. I eat a lot just to gain weight.”


“Now I know your secret. I thought you were bulimia.”


“What's up, Romeo? Are you afraid of meeting mentally ill people?” He raised both his eyebrows in jest.


“We all have a degree of madness even though the percentage is small. No. gabe. I'm not afraid of meeting mentally ill people.” He was eager to tell her about the social activities she was doing, but she quickly ignored the urge.


Not wanting to continue such a serious conversation, Miles switched the conversation once their dessert came along. He laughed as Juliett took a spoon out of his order pie. After giving his opinion on the food, he let the man try the cake. They laugh a lot and share jokes. Miles hasn't felt that happy in a long time.


Is it wrong if he hopes the night doesn't end soon? He knew it was impossible. So what should she do so that she can stay with him longer? How do I ask Gregory to open a restaurant for longer? But that's also impossible. It was impossible for him to sacrifice employees to work longer for his own sake.


Juliett didn't stay at that hotel. But he could offer to drive her back to his inn. There must be some places to eat, cafes, or bars that are open until early morning. Wonderful idea. Maybe they can continue the conversation there. If she was lucky, she could stay for a while in the woman's room. Tomorrow he knows where to find her if he wants to have dinner together again.


“I know what's on your mind. I also don't want this to end soon.” Juliett said meaningfully. Miles' heart almost stopped. He's never done this before.


“I'm glad we have the same thoughts.” he said in relief.


“If you want, we can go to my inn. I have a lot of books on good dining information in Singapore.”, she read her mind. He stopped for a while and added, “And if you are interested, you can spend the night at my place.”


Miles smiled at the offer. Were it not for him looking at his eyes and lips as he spoke, he would have definitely accused the woman of plotting something to trap him in order to get his money. What woman does not want to be close to a money man? But he avoided her eyes while talking and her lips trembled. At the same time, his hands repeatedly wiped the hair behind his ears. She's nervous.


But is this what he wants? Spending one night with a woman he doesn't even know her real name? He's not a single guy. In addition, he was married and never touched another woman other than his wife. No. gabe. He doesn't have to think long. He had never been attracted to another woman before. If the woman is also interested in him, why should she refuse the opportunity to warm her bed? Even though it was only for one night, he was unwilling to waste it.


“You sure about this?” tanyanya slow. Still looking down.


“I've never been this confident before.” replied Miles quickly. Juliett gulps. He was silent for a moment, then a cheerful smile adorned his face.


“I don't have any disease and very healthy. Can I trust you that you are also healthy?” ask Juliett seriously. Miles smiled. What a good thought. Of course they have to be careful.


“I can call my personal doctor now if you want.” bargain. The woman looked at him carefully.


“Good. I believe in you. Before we go any further, there is a condition.” Miles knew the woman wouldn't make this too easy for him.


“Say.” says Miles fast. Too soon. He must be able to control himself or he will scare the woman with his aggressive attitude.


“No private talks. We should not ask about your phone number, address, or real name. When we cross paths one day out there, we don't know each other. Just if you and I are alone, we are Juliett and Romeo.” He looked into his eyes as he said all the terms that flashed through his head.


“Agree.” says Miles fast. To be honest, he wanted the same thing.


“Whatever happens tonight is not forever. Just for tonight. We should not look for each other if we want the same thing again later on.” he continued.


“Agree.”


“Are you sure?” tanyanya wants to know. Since he answered the question too quickly, he understood the woman's doubts.


“Yakinu. How're you? Are you sure?” ask in the same tone.


“Very sure.” replied Juliett firmly.


To be honest, he couldn't wait anymore. Miles stood up and extended his hand to the woman. Juliett smiled and accepted his hand. They came out of the restaurant holding hands. The servants who passed by them smiled amiably.


In the lobby, a hotel employee approached him and told him there were three calls. With a heavy heart, he asked Juliett to wait for him for a while. The woman nodded then sat down on one of the available sofas there. The intended call was from Gregory. He told her that he had arrived in Phuket with his family. He already knew the next two waiting calls were from his other colleagues. They said the same thing that they had arrived safely at their home.


“If there is another incoming phone, please just ask for the message? I'm on vacation.” pinta Miles to the woman who served at the receptionist.


“I'm sorry for your inconvenience, Mr.” regrets the woman.


“Not a problem. I-i understand. The one who called was your boss. But for the next phone call, please just ask for the message. Gregory won't fire you, I'm in charge.”


“Good, Sir.” said the woman politely. Miles took a step back, impatient to be alone with Juliett. “Hopefully your night is fun.”


That woman is absolutely right. He'll have a nice night.
