Insistent Shantal

2024-10-29 19:42:56As soon as Alex was done taking the crates of fish that Auntie Hersia ordered from Captain Jean, he headed back to the inn right away.
"I'm back!"
He said as soon as he arrived, but to his surprise, another familiar face greeted him. That face was owned by the last girl he would never dare imagine meeting again; it was Shantal's! The two of them stared at each other for a good half a minute without saying anything. But it was Shantal who first broke the ice and dared to ask Alex first.
"You know me, don't you?"
Before Shantal could even stop herself, she already asked the other party that question. Because for some reason, she got this weird feeling as if her intuition was telling her that the other party could recognize her. His eyes as well as the way he looked at her, his lips that were left agape, and also the way he was left with dumbfounded expression as soon as they lock eye contact, basically

As soon as Shantal headed to one of the empty spots and took a seat of her own, Alex ran inside the kitchen. Auntie Hersia saw all of it unfold before her eyes and deep inside her, she could not help but wonder what could possibly be the relationship between the two. Yet despite her curiosity killing her, she did not say a word and decided against asking any question regarding it. She reckoned that if Alex really wished to tell her how he got acquainted with the girl, he would tell her about it even without her asking. So even when Alex ran past her on his way to the kitchen, the old lady pretended like she did not see a thing and only shrugged her shoulder.However, that did not mean that she would not observe the new girl on her block. In fact, she paid more attention to her.Meanwhile, as soon as Alex felt like he was out of everyone's earshot, he immediately contacted Harold and his team. At this point, his fingers were already shaking like crazy; he

"Gosh! They really did split the sky in half."Rico commented on the side as he was reminded of the conversation that he just had with his teammates earlier that same day. Samantha indeed mentioned that if the two ever met again, then that only meant that they were destined to see each other again. It was like the faith working its way and if that happened, it would be no different from serendipity. But at the same, although they considered this possibility, in their subconscious mind, none of them think it would really happen in reality. In fact, they deemed that the chance of Alex and Shantal meeting again was very low; if not completely impossible. But of course, one should also not forget to consider that we are talking about the two main characters and if this was not all about making their romance possible, what else this should story could be all about?Meanwhile, Samantha snatched the phone from Michael's hand so she could dire

"Let us go.""Thank you for the food."The last customers said one after another before they took their leave. At this point, only Shantal was left inside the inn. All of the other tables were already emptied and cleaned."Come again soon."Alex insinuated as he waved them goodbye and escorted the last customer all the way outside. He did not necessarily have to do that but he still did just so he could delay talking to Shantal and avoid having to confront that other party as much as the opportunity could allow him.After the customers left, he continued to pretend like he was busy and tidied the tables and chairs as if they were never all good, to begin with. Shantal, on the other hand, remained true to her words. She did not dare disturb him, not even once. She neither talked to him nor did anything to distract Alex while he was in the middle of his job. She only observed him f

Alex went back and forth from mopping the floor down and going to the kitchen. He really tried to keep his mind busy. But after a prolonged time of avoiding Shantal, he finally could not take it anymore so he mustered up his courage to face her. He pulled a chair and sat right across Shantal on the table."I know that I sat across from you back in the train. But I can't help but find it strange that you followed me here."He pointed that out and Shantal was unable to refute his words. When Shantal refused to say a word, Alex continued to speak. But each time he tried to speak, the more indignant he sounded."Do you know that it is not normal for a girl to follow a man to his place of work? Let alone say when they never knew each other?!"Again, unable to find the right word to say, Shantal remained silent and only chewed on her lower lips."Based on your expression, this was not

"Who is she?"Auntie Hersia questioned Alex as soon as the other party got to the kitchen. But Alex denied having anything to do with Shantal."I don't know her.""Should I call the police?"The old lady suggested and when Alex heard that, he quickly shook his head."Certainly, not. There is no need for that, really.""But Is he not bothering you? From how I see it, she was harassing you."Alex was silent for a while as he tried to consider things but it did not take that long before he made his mind and revealed the truth to Auntie Hersia."Actually, it was me who bothered her first when she did not wish to have anything to do with me."There was an obvious tone of despondency at the edge of his voice when he said that and so the old lady nodded her head in understanding.

"Hello, I just called to inform you that my team will arrive anytime from now. So be ready."Jodi's voice sounded so sweetly from the other line. It was obvious from the tone of her voice alone that she was in a good mood. However, it did not seem that the man he was talking to, shared the same feeling. On the contrary, Harold has a grim expression pasted on his face."This is as far as I could do."He whispered next to his phone as softly as he could because he did not want anyone from his team to notice that he was on his phone; talking to someone."No worries. This, by itself, was already a great help."Jodi replied having the same level of energy as before.Meanwhile, oblivious of the thing that their leader was forced to commit in order to save their team, Sam and the other continued to mind their own businesses.Sam was busy tinklin

"Come in!"Harold invited them as well although he did not exactly move from where he was standing. The team, on the other hand, seemed to know what they have to do. They no longer have to be told what has to be done and they took out their tools as soon as they got there. One of them even has his eyes glued at a USB slot right away."You came here a lot earlier than expected."Samantha commented in an attempt to strike up a conversation with the newly arrived team and one of them was considerate enough to reply to her."We tend to get things done pretty quickly."" Do you need any help?"Meanwhile, Rico offered a helping hand to the technician standing right next to him. However, the other party declined kindly."It's okay. This is our field of expertise. Rest assured that we got enough manpower to get this job done."

Meanwhile, the youngest among the technician's got his attention hooked on the model robot that was put on display. This was actually 1096, less the face because apparently, Harold's team was still in the middle of fixing some of his inner parts. But the robot could already do as much as talking."1096"The guy read the tag written on the robot's chest plate and he almost jumped to his feet when the robot suddenly started talking to him."Do you know me?"The robot inquired. But the other party was simply too stunned at that time that it was as if his ability to talk was momentarily thrown at the window."I would like to get to know you as well."1096 resumed talking when he did not get a response from the man before him. As if put in a trance, the man, who the author no longer bothered to name, stared back at the robot with a completely dazed look. Amazement

"Gosh it's good."Harold said when he got to taste how refreshing the drink was. When he looked at the other two guys, he saw them gesturing to their head but he did not give them much attention."Yes.Sam repeated the same thing with a voice and face devoid of emotion."Something needs fixing."Harold told Sam afterward and so Sam fought back to urge to do and eye roll before replying flatly to him."Okay."This time, Harold noticed that Rico and Michael still keep on doing the same thing so he asked them instead,"What? Is your scalp itchy.""No."The two answered in unison. Jodi on the other hand who was watching all of this farce unfold right before her eyes, could not help but let out a sigh."You sure are made for each other."She said to no one in particular and it was also as seemed she was only talking to herself."Anyway. Michael, I need you to go to Casterly."

"I am right here. Respect my existence."Michael insinuated afterward before he sarcastically added,"Do you guys want be to get you a room instead?""I should not have fallen asleep that night."He muttered to himself as he recalled the night Jodi asked Rico out for a date. He believed that if only he was not asleep that time, then maybe Jodi would also consider dating him.On the other hand, Rico seemed to be out of it and oblivious of him."Lover."The other party mumbled to himself as he observed the tarot card in his hand.'"I did not know this will happen. I feel so lonely."Michael muttered to himself out of despondency and while he was in the middle of self pity. Someone walked into the room.They though the one arrived was some random girl who was in full glam and obviously had just gone to salon for her touch up when it decided to have some coffee."Wow! I told her she would be pretty."

"That robot was sometimes human and sometimes a robot for me and that was why others who can't understand my situation mistakes me as someone who hallucinates and believe a robot as a human just because I am treating it just like one. But for my opinion, my situation was no different from those who loves their pets so much, they even considered them as their child and called themselves as furparents.""My emotions were input into that robot and that person. That is how this miracle happened. That fact completely changed the way I view things. This will be yet another scoop for the reporters present.

On the flip side, just like what Shantal assumed, Mr. Takashi with Mathilde's instruction called for an emergency meeting on that afternood. Which happened to coincide to the time when Shantal will hold her press conference.Moreover, since Mathilde would not be able to make it there since she was still held in prison, her secretary presided the meeting."We shall begin the emergency board meeting."Secretary Ye declared loudly and her voice reverberated in the room. Jiro was also there along with other board members."The agenda is the dismissal of Director Shantal Nordstorme and the cause is as you were all informed. An illness."She continued while everyone was silent and anxiously prayed so they could ever this meeting once and for all.

It was late in the evening when Jodi received a call out from nowhere. When she checked that registered on the caller ID, she was surprised to see Jiro's name.Truth be told, he was the least person he would expect to contact her. After all, the two of them never talked to each other for ages.Jiro used to be a good friend of hers as well. Just like how she and Shantal were cousins, Jiro and and Zorens were first cousins too so naturally all four of them get to know each other and as a child, they eventually became acquaintances in no time.Besides, since Zoren's parents were a family friend of the Nordstorme they often had an opportunity to hang around during their childhood.However, ever since the day Zoren committed suicide due to the incident regarding the Nordstorme controversy, Jiro also stopped communicating with them.So this made Jodi wonder what had come to Jiro to decide and phone her at this time of the night.But

"In other words, she wants me to become director and cover up all his shortcomings?"Mr. Takashi insinuated after his contemplation. He did not exactly declined the offer this time, unlike before. Although he also did not directly implied that he would do it.Nonetheless, Secretary Ye considered his response as a good sign. At least, the other party was no longer adamant at turning them down.So with the same insinuating manner, she answered him back."That would make it easier for you to do your duties once you become a director. All that was left for you now is to leave Ms. Shantal Nordstrome no other choice but to step down and abdicate the position of board directory to your hands.""Ousting her is not enough. He will just come back. We must make sure he loses the will to come back."Out of nowhere, Mr. Takashi declared with conviction and for a second, the secretary was taken aback by this.One moment, he almost drove her a

"You told Jodi about everything?"Mathilde asked her secretary as soon as the two of them were finally allowed to have some private conversation within the prison hall where she was currently detained. Panic was noticeably present on the other party's face when she raised her question. Meanwhile, the secretary remained silence yet that was all enough for Mathilde to guess her response and not long after that, her shoulders dropped on the side when the realization hit her."I guess she was bound to find out about it sooner or later."She muttered under her breath with despondent undertone.An exasperated sigh escaped Mathilde's lips afterward. But then, she suddenly tenses up when she recalled about something else.Leaning towards the other party all the while grabbing a hold to the iron bars, Mathilde looked around her warily first to make sure that no ears were on them.Only when she confirmed for the umpteenth time that no one was listenin
