A Moment in Destiny

“Rae, you all have always been occupied!” In Raphael Gill’s mind, he had never seen Rae sitting idle. Rae became busier after she joined the criminal police team. She was getting busier and busier, even busier than him, the manager. He wondered what she was doing all the time.

“Yeah, those are all the criminal cases, I am very busy now!” Rae chose a seat by the window.

The waitress sent the menu to them, “What would you like to have?”

Rae took the menu and put it at the front of Rae, “You take the order!”

Rae just ignored the menu and took orders directly, “Please serve four dishes for us within 10 minutes and let the chef figure it out by themselves, I am short of time!”

The waitress seemed to be used to that situation, he nodded and smiled, “There are some ready-made dishes. I will serve it for you right now! Do you need any drinks?”

“No, thanks!”

Just as the waitress walked away, Rae asked Raphael, “Why are you so free? I thought you have to spend time companying your girlfriend!”

“We broke up!” Raphael said.

“When did it happen?” Rae was not surprised by it because it was not the first time he broke up with his girlfriend. He was that kind of playboy!

“Don’t mention it, the new would replace the old. So, do you want to be my girlfriend?”

“Then break up with you after a few months and we can’t even be friends anymore?” Rae raised her eyebrows and asked him back.

“Rae, I will be faithful in love. If it were you, maybe I can consider having unswerving love!” He seemed like telling the truth and also lying, people couldn’t see through the reality from his face.

Rae didn’t care about it, she just smiled. “Forget about it, I don’t have that much spare time for it!”

Raphael’s lips were pursed with a faint smile. He laughed, “I know you will say that!”

The waitress served the dishes. There were all cold dishes. Rae couldn’t wait anymore and started eating.

Just as she took a bite of the beef and beef offal, she received a call from Easton.

“Rae, Captain Hopkins announced that the meeting will be at 12.10 pm, please come on time!”

“Alright, I am going now!” Rae raised her hands and looked at her watch, the time was 11.55am and she needed five minutes to walk back. Thus, she sped up her eating.

“Duty?” Rachael’s gaze fell on Rae’s face. There was a trace of loss showing on his handsome face. It was just the same as usual, her meal had always been disturbed by this and that. He couldn’t remember how long had it been she hadn’t had a proper meal with him.

“Yes!” Rae nodded and she didn’t mention Raphael’s expressions. She just spoke while eating, “Look at me, I am just too busy. Raph, I am sorry. I will treat you a meal when I am free to console your hurtful emotion due to your broken love!”

“Just go! Leave after finishing your meal, the reason that I come here today is to tell you something! Rae, I rent a house that opposite the place you stay now. If you don’t want to move, I can just be your neighbor!” Raphael just said it casually.

Rae was startled. He really wanted to make the words that he said yesterday become true?

“You—”

Raphael stopped her from saying a word, “Rae, I can lend you the condo located over Golden Water Residence if you agree to move out from the place you are staying now!”
