Chapter 30_ Family’s day out 1
Arya grinned and patted his shoulder gently, her face suddenly turned sour..
“Ray can you believe your dad? I made this especially for him and he is not happy about it”
Ray stared at his dad’s plate and started laughing “He is not a mouse Arya, he has a large appetite”
Kyle had a blank expression on his face, he calmly stood up with his plate and placed it in front of Arya and collected her already filled up plate..
Arya was left speechless, how can he behave so immaturely?
Kyle took his seat and began munching on it..
“That’s called stealing you know?”
Ray moved his chair backwards and hopped down..
“There’s something I want to show you both.. wait right here” Ray said hurriedly and dashed off living alone the two..
Arya took Ray’s spot and snatched back her plate of food that he took earlier..
“I let it slide because Ray was here..”
“Are you trying to come close to me again? so that you can take advantage of my helplessness just like last night?”
Arya instantly placed a palm over his mouth, she looked around the room to see if anyone was around..
“Don’t speculate things Mr Anderson, I did no such thing!”
Kyle lowered his face to her “Really? then what about the kiss?”
Arya’s face turned pale, she could feel the heat rising up in her cheeks..
Luckily for her Ray showed up, she sprang up from the seat and took the next..
“It’s okay Arya, you can sit here I don’t mind”
Arya flashed him a small smile, she sneaked a peek at Kyle and choked on her own spit when she saw the smirk on his face..
Ray noticed the change in the room, he guessed that they might have fought while he was gone..
Ray placed the three tickets on the table “Daddy, Arya look at what I’ve got”
Arya picked one of the tickets and examined it closely..
“Tickets to the amusement park” She murmured which was loud enough for them to hear..
Kyle however simply continued his meal, he knew where this was headed..
“Yes Arya.. you’re chanced right?” he said with a pout….
Arya sighed, she wasn’t really chanced, she still had to see how things were going at her restaurant..
“Umm Ray I…
“What about you daddy?”
Kyle cleared his throat “I’m having a meeting today son.. so I’m not going to make it”
Ray’s face fell “You say the same thing every time I ask you to go to the park with me”
Kyle sighed and was about to console his son when Arya interjected..NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
“You’ve never gone to the amusement park before?”
Ray nodded his head..
Arya handed Ray a ticket “Then I’ll go with you… I want to see you happy and have a good time.. unlike some people who don’t care about you”
Ray’s face beamed with happiness, if Arya was willing to go with him, then his dad will accept too right?
Kyle snorted in disdain, he sent Arya a threatening gaze and to his surprise she didn’t budge..
“Look Ray it’s not like I don’t care about you.. you know I’m always busy”
Ray turned to Arya “I’ll go get ready Arya…”
“Ray” Kyle called out when he felt ignored..
“You should also get ready Arya”
Kyle’s grip on his glass tightened, whenever she was around, Ray never listens to him or notice his presence..
“Fine! I’ll go with you Ray.. because I care a lot about you more than some person’s”
Ray averted his gaze to Kyle “Really dad?”
Kyle nodded with a smile “Go on and get ready I’ll be ready soon”
Ray hopped down from his chair and dashed off happily..
Silence returned to the room again until Arya cleared her throat..
“Ray hasn’t been to the amusement park before? what kind of father are you? you deprived him of so much fun because you were busy?”
Kyle got up from his seat and pulled her up with him too..
“Shut up! now listen, whatever you do don’t try to compete with me against my son’s attention, because I won’t take it!” He said in a low tone and left the dining room..
Arya’s lips parted slightly “He is crazy!”

Chloe wriggled herself trying to cut loose the rope, she was currently tied to a chair..
“Stop doing that!” Bryan shunned and resumed whatever he was doing on his laptop..
Chloe’s chest heaved up and down in anger “Let me go! what will you gain by tying me up here?!”
Bryan sighed and stood up from his seat, he walked to her and bent down before her..
“Jeezzz! don’t you get tired of talking? you’ve been yelling non stop since yesterday”
“And I won’t stop until someone hears my voice and come to my rescue and after that I’ll charge you for kidnapping” Chloe declared..
Bryan stood up and grabbed a glass of water, he turned back to her and raised it to her lips..
“if you say so.. then I guess you must be needing this, since your throat might be a little dry from screaming all through”
Chloe turned her face to the other side with a frown..
“Let me go!”
Bryan dropped the glass on the table and folded his arm..
“Well for starters, no! it was because of you Lora left and I won’t let you go until I find her replacement”
Chloe laughed out mockingly “I’m not the least surprised that she left you.. it’s because you’re the least handsome guy in the world”
Bryan corked a brow in amusement “Hello I’m every girls dream guy.. it’s not my fault if you have a bad taste in men”
Chloe smiled in response “Well since you’re every girls dream, why don’t you find one and let me go.. it can’t be that hard or else you’re into me” she teased..
Bryan placed both hands on his hips, he cursed his fate for ever meeting her..
“You know what?!” He walked to the bed and took a white neat napkin and returned back to her..
Chloe stared at him in suspicion, was he trying to suffocate her to death?
“What are you trying to do?”
Bryan tied the napkin around her mouth to stop her from talking, he was going insane already..
“Everyone wins! I get my peace and quietness and you get to save your voice” Bryan murmured and returned back to his laptop..

Arya’s lips dropped when Kyle appeared before her fully dressed..
“I know I’m dashing but please stop embarrassing yourself by drooling over me” Kyle nonchalantly uttered putting on cufflinks..
Arya was taken aback, she crossed her arm “Well Mr dashing! you can’t go into an amusement park dressed like that.. you’re not going to the office”
Kyle tilted his head to the side “Why don’t you just mind your business?”
Arya yanked off his tie he was about knotting “I don’t mind if people see you dressed like this.. infact everyone will see you as I and Ray’s personal bodyguard”
She placed the tie on his palm ” Let’s see who will be embarrassed”
Kyle snorted and walked back to his closet, he went through his collection once more and took out a black shirt..
Arya shoved him aside and brought out a sky blue t-shirt and a pair of black pants..
“You have this right? if you know you can’t wear them why on earth will you buy them?!” She questioned..
Kyle snatched the outfit she picked out and held it with the tip of his fingers, his face frowned in disgust..
“This? who in their right mind wears this?? I’m Kyle Anderson! I can’t be seen in such ugly clothes!”
Arya scoffed and walked to the couch, she picked her outfit and headed straight into the bathroom..
Kyle tossed the outfit on the bed and sat down with a sigh..
“The heck!?”
Few minutes later Arya stepped out all dressed, she was dressed in a pink low cut top and black pants..
Arya’s heart skipped a beat when Kyle turned to her direction..
She blinked back and smiled “You actually wore it?”
Ray pushed open the door and stood rooted staring at his dad..
“Daddy? you look handsome in those right Arya?”
“I guess so”
Arya walked to the mirror and picked up a band, she brushed her hair with her fingers and tied it into a ponytail..
She turned around to put on her foot wear and was surprised to see Kyle standing behind her..
“What are you trying to….
Kyle reached his hand into her hair and pulled off the band holding it in place..
