Chapter 115 - Leave
" You don\'t have much luggage with you . So it will be easy to take care of the transport . " said Bekora .
" Now that you mention it , I only have to pack my clothes and Aden\'s clothes . " said Aria a bit relieved that there wasn\'t much to prepare before leaving .
" But Bekora , is the house alright ?! I mean , does it have tv and other electronic stuff ?! " asked Aria .
" Of course it does have ! It would be a house if it didn\'t have electronic gadgets . " said Bekora with a smile .
" If you say so . " said Aria a bit doubtful while looking at the photo of the apartment that Bekora had found . It didn\'t look like a very cheap apartment and the decor inside was rather modern .
\' This apartment doesn\'t look cheap but not luxurious either . It looks comfortable and that\'s what matters . I need to make sure that Aden feels at ease in this new house . \' thought Aria with a relieved smile .
This matter had bothered her during this whole weekend . Thankfully Bekora was able to find the apartment with not much difficulty . Aria looked at bekora and remembered all the times that he had helped her . Without him , she would have to deal with lots of troublesome matters . She felt like she had to repay his kindness somehow .
\' Somehow I will definitely pay him back in the future . Now I will invite him to dinner when I go to the new house and express my gratitude to him....Yes , that\'s what I\'ll do ! \' thought Aria with a smile .
" Bekora , thank you so much ! You have helped me countless times and I really feel in debt to you so I would like to invite you to dinner in at the apartment . Once I get my paycheck I will definitely take you to an expensive restaurant . " said Aria with a smile .
\' She\'s trying to thank me ! Oh well , with all this trouble that I have faced during this time , it would be nice to have a good dinner . \' thought Bekora and then agreed .
" I will be glad to come ! " said Bekora .
" Perfect ! See ya tonight at 8 pm! I will start work tomorrow so I will be at the new apartment tonight . " said Aria with a smile .
Bekora\'s phone started to ring and he waved at Aria then went to answer the phone .
\' I have noticed that Bekora\'s phone rings a lot . He must be very busy . \' thought Aria .
" Aria !! " said a voice from behind .
Aria turned around and noticed that the person who spoke was Mana .
" Mana ?! Where have you been all this week ? " asked Aria with a happy expression when she saw her .
" I have been working on the draft for the new session . A true pain in the neck ! I haven\'t slept well just because I had to prepare it fast . " said Mana with a tired face .
" It has tired you a bit but think about all the money you\'ll receive once you finish it ! " said Aria and both of the laughed .
" Oh right ! I am very sorry about the dress you gave me , it tore up ! I haven\'t had the chance to meet you , with all the mess with my parents and the minister\'s case . I even discovered that madam Margrethe was actually the queen of Denmark ! My mind has been a total mess during this period ." said Aria a bit dejected . She still couldn\'t shake off the memories of sneaking into the royal library territory and the fact that the queen saw her while sneaking in . She even asked for help to enter the library without being noticed by the guards by the queen herself .
\' That\'s the first time in my life that I truly felt like being the biggest idiot in the world ! How can someone ask the help of the queen to sneak into her house ?! If I were a thief , I would probably go towards the prison with my own feet without realizing it . \' thought Aria embarrassed at her own silliness.
" Really ?! That must have been shocking ! " said Mana with a bit of a nervous face .
" Yeah ! Very shocking ! " said Aria .
" By the way...I saw Bekora and you were chatting...happily a while ago . Did something fun happen ? " asked Mana in a weird tone which Aria didn\'t understand well .
" Yeah ! Bekora has helped me a lot and to express my gratitude I inited him to have dinner at the new apartment I will be going to . " said Aria with a smile .
" Oh ! So that\'s it ! " said Mana a bit relieved .
" Wait , you\'re leaving ?! " said Mana surprised .
" Yeah ! I will be leaving for an apartment that\'s near the medical clinic where my brother will be treated . " said Aria .
" You don\'t like the royal palace ?! " asked Mana .
" Of corse I love it ! I don\'t have to worry about house chores if I live here , plus the food is delicious but I finished my mission here , now it\'s time for me to live . I may be a simple person in comparison to the people who live and work here but I would not step low and take advantage of the commodity here . I am not a royal and this is not my home . I don\'t live here and I don\'t accept charity for anything . Even the help that Bekora has given me , I will definitely return it in the future ." said Aria with a smile .
" Hey Aria ! What\'s your opinion about Bekora ? " asked Mana when she saw Aria\'s smile the moment she said Bekora\'s name .
" Bekora ?! He\'s a very handsome , rich and polite guy . In short a great guy ! He helped me when I needed help the most . I don\'t have lots of friends . Everything I achieved I had to rely on my own strength since I am not that good in aking others like me . I personally regard Bekora as a dear friend which I wouldn\'t want to lose for anything in the world . I will pay back his kindness . " said Aria with a warm smile .
\' So...she just considers him as a friend and nothing more . \' thought Mana with a smile and she could tell by Aria\'s expression that what she felt for Bekora were just respect and precious friendship .
" Hey Mana ! Would you like to join us for dinner ? " asked Aria with a smile .
" Sure ! " said Mana .
The both of them went upstairs happily . Mana decided to spend some time with Aria and to help her with her luggage . While they went up the stairs Helios and Bekora looked at them .
" Hard to see Mana get along like that with a girl . " said Bekora with a smile . He felt happy that she had found a good friend like Aria .
" I seriously doubt that that little tigress thinks of her as just a friend ! " said Helios in a low tone with an annoyed expression .
" What did you say ?! " asked Bekora who couldn\'t hear him .
" Nothing , I just was curious . What did you two talk about ? " asked Helios .
" She invited me for dinner cause I helped her find an apartment near the medical clinic where her brother will be treated and with the expenses of her little brother\'s medication . That girl has told me continuously that she will pay me back . She\'s really stubborn and doesn\'t accept having any debt unpaid . " said Bekora with a little laugh .
" Seems like you two get along very well now ?! " asked Helios a bit annoyed .
" Yeah , we do . It\'s hard to find a friend like her . Sometimes I feel at ease when I talk with her . " said bekora with a smirk when he saw how annoyed Helios was .
\' What a stupid smile he\'s making ! I am curious to see your expression the moment she steals Mana from you ! \' thought Helios and that thought satisfied him but then he realized that he couldn\'t allow that to happen .
\' Wait , no ! She\'s my cousin , I can\'t allow her to end up with that little tigress . I wanna be an uncle i the future and will definitely not allow that little tigress to become relatives with me ! She has yet to pay the price for what she has done to me ! \' thought Helios angry .
\' Since Aria came , his mood changes rapidly . \' thought Bekora when looking at Helios who one second smiled then the next frowned .
Helios and Bekora went to their company in Denmark while Aria and Mana prepared the luggage . After finish the luggage , Mana ordered a maid to take Aria\'s things to the car .Aria looked behind her , at the room where she was staying and remembered everything that she had been through here in Denmark .
\' Even though I made an idiot of myself in front of the queen of Denmark , I lived a great adventure here . I got to strengthen the bond with the new people I met and became friends . I enjoyed high-quality food to the fullest . I passed a great time here....now it\'s time to say goodbye and go to my own world , to my real world full of troubles . \' thought Aria then closed the door and went towards the entrance door where Mana was waiting for her .
" Let\'s go ! " said Aria after looking at the door behind one last time .
Aden was already in the car . Aria and Mana entered in the car and then they went to the new apartment where Aria would be staying .
" Your Majesty ! Why didn\'t you meet with miss Aria before she left ? " asked the butler Albert when he noticed that the queen kept looking at the car where Mana and Aria were from outside the window . He found it was quite unusual since she liked Aria very much .
" Well , it\'s not like it\'s the last time we will meet with her . She will be coming even more frequently in the future . I like that girl not only because she has a pure character but because she\'s capable and can help us win against our enemy . She may think that she will never come back again but the moment she stepped into the meeting hall , she can never break free from the chains of the royal court . " said queen Margrethe with a smirk .
" Have the people start the searching procedures ? " asked the queen .
" Yes Your Majesty as per you order , not even a rock will be left unflipped . " said butler Albert .
" Good ! Keep searching and notify me as soon as you find something ! " said the queen .
\' As Aria said , there must definitely be something in that old building that the minister of the environment was desperately trying to get . Her argument made sense and it coincided with the letter my dear husband left me before he died . It\'s better to be prepared in case something dangerous awaits us . \' thought queen Margrethe with a serious expression .
" If I may ask , what will miss Aria be doing more ? " asked the butler .
" You will know soon Albert ! " said queen Margrethe and kept looking out of the window till the car disappeared .
