Athary, Frin
"Are you sure that this is the place?" Ruby asked curiously as she looked at the restaurant that was situated in a remote alley doubt written all over her face.
It was a Saturday and unlike the weekend where they could rest and play, their class had an extra lecture in the morning.
And that lecture ended an hour ago. Rather than going home, Ruby decided to meet up with a friend of hers from the Fashion and Design major, Kelly who wanted to discuss business with her.
Since it was her first business talk with someone other than her family, she was looking forward to this meeting. But who would have guessed that Kelly would bring her to some remote place?
Even if Kelly let’s say didn’t have money, couldn’t she have taken them to a street food stall? Or even go home. They could still cook at home and still chat. Why did she have to bring her to a place so remote?
If the bodyguards weren’t shadowing her, she would have thought that maybe Kelly was planning on abducting her for money. However, as Kelly’s friend for two weeks, she knew that the other was rich.
She wasn’t poor at all, so why was she doing this to her?
Kelly chuckled faintly when she saw the expression on Ruby’s face. She knew that the other was going to react the same way. After all, she remembered clearly when she chanced upon the restaurant as well.
She was suspicious, and then she doubted everything. However, her curiosity got the best of her, and in the end, she mustered her courage and took a bold walk towards the restaurant and she never regretted it.
Kelly patted Ruby’s shoulder as she answered, her gaze fixated on the restaurant that was coming into view and answered, "That’s the place. Trust me, you will definitely love it! I swear!" her tone was very firm.
Ruby upon hearing that, couldn’t help but think about her sister who had recently dropped a bomb.
Whenever her sister says trust me, there would be something amazing waiting to happen. Maybe Kelly should be trusted. It’s not like she would shed a layer of skin by checking the place out.
In the end, she hummed as she increased her pace, showing her determination to check the place out.
Kelly pumped her fists as she followed Ruby, eager to share this wonderful place with her new friend.
When the restaurant finally came into view, Ruby stood by the entrance reading the plaque of the restaurant; LYONHEART RESTAURANT.
’What a strong name!’
"This place is fine and has that seclusive vibe. We can dine here in peace without any worry of being disturbed!" Kelly explained as she pushed the door of the restaurant so that they could get in.
Ruby felt that it made sense when Kelly pointed at it that way, she couldn’t help but murmur, "It’s a beautiful place," complimenting the restaurant as she followed Kelly inside.
The restaurant had these refreshing vibes and the interior of the place really showed that the owner put a lot of details into the place.
