Aria's pov:

After a few hours the meeting finally was over and this time i made sure to stay focused rather than my mind drifting away.

The meeting ended a few minutes past 5. so, I gathered all of my stuff and drove off to café au sucre where i am about to meet that guy.

The place i chose was a nice little restaurant, nothing over the top.small and cozy,with really,good food.

As i got there earlier than expected i ordered myself a bottle of wine and started sipping on my wine appreciating the sweetness of it.

I waited and waited the content of the wine in the bottle started decreasing.

After waiting for 30 minutes past the expected time, i started getting irritated and the alcohol in my system did not help much.waiting another 5 minutes I called my mom. She did not answered the phone so feeling fed up. I called the waiter to pay for the bill.

By now i was boiling in anger. What does that idiot think of himself? How dare he for keeping me waiting. Stupid dumbass Moron.

The door tinged indicating a new guest in the restaurant. I watched in the direction of the door and saw the great Allesandro Moretti entering.

At the same time the waiter came to my table to clear off the bill. As i was taking my cash out , i felt a tap on my shoulder. I turned around to see non other than my boss.

Confusion settled down in my mind and i am pretty sure reflected on my face.

"Sorry to disturb you Miss brown, but are you waiting for someone?" He asked me.

"Actually, yes but that person did not show up." I answered him annoyance clear in my voice.

What i cannot help it?? The fine wine surely shows its effect. Usually i would have answered with an normal tone but the alcohol did not help me a bit in hiding it.

"Well i apologise for keeping you waiting i was stucked in some work back in the office."he said.

Whaaaatt the heck???

"Huh-wh-excuse me what?"i said a little bit louder than expected.

He chuckled and took a seat. He dismissed the waiter by telling him to come back with the menu.

"Huh??" I said out loud like the complete idiot i am.

He smirked at me.

Gosh he is so handsome!

" well i must say your choice is quite exquisite." He said with a slight smirk.

"Thank you...um can i know what you are doing here more precisely on my table." I asked him.

"Well i can see the wine is having some type of effect on you."he said teasingly while eyeing the three quarters empty bottle on the table.

" well to clear both of our doubts, my parents set me up to meet someone and they told me that she decided on this place and that she will be wearing a maroon coloured dress."he said while serving himself the wine.

"How can you be so sure thats it is me that you are supposed to me it could be someone else??" I asked him .

"Well, right now you are the only onee wearing a maroon dress in here and you also, were waiting for someone." He said while sipping the wine.

"Well that person could have already gone, who do you think is going to wait for a whole 45 minutes?" I said as i narrowed my eyes at him.

"You did." He said as a matter of fact.

I sighed."Mr Morertti, i think i should be going this date is clearly a fail so why should i waste your time." I sighed once again as i continue." I am sorry for wasting your time i'll inform my mom about it." I said as i placed some cash on the table to pay for the wine.

"Have a good evening sir." I said politely as i stood up and forced a faint smile on my face.
