CHAPTER 31- CHOCOLATE BAR


    His words were solemn and sounded serious as if he was making a sincere promise to her. The girl


    was still childish, she looked up at him with her worn out depressed eyes and showed him her pinky


    finger, "Do you pinky promise?"


    Ryan couldn''t help but get his straight lips curl up into a smile, he hooked his pinky finger with her


    before making his promise to her.


    This was illogical, as a grown up boy he never believed on this childish rituals and pinky promises but


    seeing that this filled the girl with rays of hope and happiness he dly put up with it.the tension


    between his furrowed eyebrows and the room started to ease out as the girl''s sound of chuckling


    resounded in the room.


    Ryan got up and two boys left after saying goodbye to the little girl who even came down with Miss L


    to escort them out.


    Inside the car Ryan had his eyes hooked on the girl until his car moved out making her disappear from


    his sight. Jack said, "She is a really good girl, isn''t she?" Ryan chose to stay mum and looked out of


    the window, even though this question was responded with ack of reaction by the boy Jack could still


    say that his friend really liked this girl.


    Without minding him he further said, "You shouldn''t have promised her; she seemed to value that pinky


    thing a lot. She will be really disappointed when she will realise you were lying to her."


    "Who was lying to whom?" Ryan finally spoke up and looked into his friend''s eyes. It didn''t take two


    seconds for Jack to realise what his friend was saying, his eyes red open, "Are you serious?"


    Ryan''s mind shed with the events that happened hours ago- how she crashed onto him, how she


    apologized, how she talked and how she made him promise that he will be back. He only met her for a


    day and that too for a couple of hours and still the girl managed to strike a string in his young heart; she


    meant something to him that he himself had to figure.


    He, of course, was gonna find her again and find answers to his own questions.


    That evening Ryan had a long talk with his father seeking permission for him and Jack to go to the


    honestly replied that he promised Catherine that he woulde to meet her.


    "I am a man, dad. And you taught me that men never go back on their word, especially words they


    make to a woman."


    Mr. Neguyen didn''t find anything suspicious about it, in fact he liked the fact that his son was making


    good rtionships with the Silva''s. They would be meeting each other more in future and this was a


    All rights ? N?velDrama.Org.


    good way of dwelling.


    The Neguyen''s were one of the oldest Mafia n in Spain and were thus the most influential. Their


    rtionship with Silva was that of friendship and harmony; Master Neguyen and President Silva were


    friends and decided to corporate when they legally took over their family businesses.


    Society worked on unspoken rules- the one with backers took the prize. Silva Inc, which stood mighty


    and influential in the city, was started from scrape 15 years ago. The man could only raise up to where


    he was today because he had the Neguyen''s backing him.


    The Mafia stained his hands for the sake ofpany and in return was provided with partnership and a


    legitimate business identity. This was how this worked, the two families worked on a symbiotic


    rtionship nurturing each other.


    Of course, Ryan had no idea about all these serious issues; all he had in his mind was to meet his


    angel again.


    When President Silva learnt about this new friend of hers from his daughter he was really ted. After


    the death of his wife he engaged himself in business to f.divert his mind but it was the little girl who


    suffered out of loneliness. He wasn''t blind and he was told million times by his employees that he


    should give her more time. It was not that he wanted to keep her away from him or be such a terrible


    father, he just had no enough time.


    Knowing that his little priemc6 had finally found herself somepany he arranged for the two boys to


    The next day, a private chauffeur came to take the two boys home; Mr. Silva sure was a man of


    perfection as he sent his best car to escort the two boys. Ryan owned one of the wealthiest house in


    the city andpared to his the businessman''s housecked but still it was descent and noteworthy.


    When the car entered the gate Ryan scanned the whole house with his eyes before his eyesnded on


    two figures standing at the door. It was an old woman and a little figure holding arge bunny in her


    hands.


    In her simple outfit of skirt and top, and her hairs tied into two pigtails the girl stood anticipating her


    friends arrival.


    Ryan''s heart skipped several beat when he looked at her smiling face; it was only yesterday he saw


    her but he still missed her allure.


    "Big brothers!" The girl came running and hugged his waist; one sight and anyone could say she was


    really happy to have them over. He knealt down and smiled at her. She cupped his cheeks with her


    small palm; her touch, mysteriously sent a wave of electricity down his body shoving him into a daze.


    No body else than her ever made him feel so! She said, "You kept your promise!"


    "I would have came even if you didn''t make me promise." Saying this he pulled out something from his


    pocket, it was big bar of milk chocte that he had prepare for her.


    The girl happily epted it and started showing it to her nanny. Jack looked at the boy and asked,


    "When did you prepare that?" Ryan smiled and kept the secret to himself how he spent a long time on


    You Tube learning to make chocte and how many batches of undone chocte were dumped in his


    dustpan in the process of making this simple bar.


    "Little Sister, big bro missed you so much." Jack ruffled her hairs before the three went in.
