Cable car

"Spend your time with me today," Virgo replied without hesitation.

"What?"

Virgo smiled. "Didn't you ask what you could do to make up for your guilt towards me?"

"Yeah, but that's not what I meant. I-I…"

"But that's what I want, I want to spend my precious time with you," Virgo pressed back. Oh God, strengthen Crystal.

Crystal clenched her fists tightly, trying to hide her nervousness and fear from Virgo. Crystal remembered Rose again, the girl also offered her a friendship. A friendship filled with evil intentions that almost got her hurt and Crystal is afraid that what happened to her yesterday will happen again. No luck will ever happen twice, right?

"Have you ever been on The Emirates Airlines before?" asked Virgo back.

"Huh, The Emirates…"

"No, no.. if you think The Emirates Airlines is an airline then you are wrong. The Emirates Airlines is a cable car ride that crosses the river Thames. We can see the beauty of London from the cable car. "

Crystal narrowed her eyes, doubting Virgo's words.

"Relax, the cable car is very safe so you don't need to worry and if you think I will do things to you then immediately get rid of such thoughts because I will not possibly destroy my own reputation in public with such a primitive way," added Virgo back.

"Damn Virgo, how could he read all the fears in my mind." Crystal again screamed in frustration in her heart.

"Do you have a sixth sense Virgo?" asked Crystal absently in a barely audible voice.

Virgo, who was trying to ask permission from the campus about his sudden leave today, immediately turned to Crystal quickly.

"What Crys, what are you talking about?"

Crystal gasped in surprise. "Oh no, I didn't say anything."

"Really? I heard you say something earlier."

Crystal shook her head quickly. "No, I didn't say anything. I was just confused because I have to be at school at one in the afternoon so…" "

Five hours is enough for me." Virgo interrupted Crystal's words quickly. "Maybe we can visit some other fun places in those five hours."

"Is that true?"

"Yes, and I will take you to school again on time so that the people at your house won't know if you don't attend school today," said Virgo again.

Crystal immediately lowered her head again, cursing her stupidity for the umpteenth time. And Virgo, who was already very happy because he could be with Crystal for the next five hours, Virgo immediately drove his car quickly to the first place he wanted to go with Crystal today. The Emirates Airlines, a cable car ride that is usually visited by lovers who want to spend time together in a more private way and Virgo can't wait to ride the ride with Crystal. The next five hours will be the five most memorable hours of Reagan's life starting today.

Emirates Royal Docks

As it was still quite early in the morning Virgo and Crystal were the first to be the first cable car passengers of the day.a

"There's still five minutes to go upstairs, would you like to buy something to enjoy before boarding?" asked Virgo quietly.

Crystal, who was looking around at the place where Virgo bought tickets for the cable car ride, didn't listen to Virgo's words. Crystal, who had never been to any tourist spots since entering the orphanage, looked so amazed and couldn't wait to ride the gondola with a view. London's most beautiful and understanding Virgo chose not to disturb Crystal's pleasures. Virgo can read Crystal's gestures which look so enthusiastic and impatient which makes Virgo very happy. Oh happy it's so simple it turns out.

Luckily there was an ice cream shop not far from where he was standing at the moment, without thinking twice Virgo stepped towards that place leaving Crystal who was definitely not aware that she was left behind. Because the queue for the ice cream shop wasn't long, in less than two minutes Virgo was back at Crystal's side carrying two tempting cones of vanilla ice cream.

"For you," Virgo said softly as he held out his right hand in front of Crystal's face.

Crystal, who was watching the cable car crossing the Thames, gasped in surprise. "Hah?"

"Ice cream and this is the best ice cream in this place and luckily I can get this ice cream quickly because the queue is not too long," said Virgo again.

"Where did you buy it?"

Virgo turned his face and pointed towards the ice cream shop where he bought ice cream, which currently had a long queue. "There."

"Oh my God, that's how long the queue was and you bought it for me?"

"The queue wasn't that long when I bought it," Virgo replied softly. "Today God was really good to me."

"God is always good to His servant at any time and every time, not just today." Crystal replied to Virgo's words.

"Sorry," said Virgo briefly. "So hurry up and grab this ice cream, I don't want it to melt in my hands because it definitely won't be fun to enjoy ice cream that has melted."

Crystal smiled, she slowly grabbed the ice cream cone from Virgo's hand. "Thank you."

Virgo nodded slowly, his chest felt very tight seeing the beautiful smile Crystal had just shown him.

***

West Oily Corp.

After dropping Crystal off at her school this morning Reagan became very unsettled, he was very unfocused and restless doing all of his hectic work this morning. Ariel's sudden resignation from office made some of the work that should be taken care of by Ariel be delegated to Reagan as head of the company, even though Austin could actually take over his daughter's job, the people who had to deal with Ariel chose to give their reports to Reagan. It was Austin's insecure credibility that kept the other staff from having much to do with him, which is why they chose Reagan.

"Are you ok?"

Reagan placed the document in his hand roughly on the table. "No, I'm not."

"What happened?"

Reagan shook his head. "I don't know, today I'm in a very bad mood. I am in absolutely no mood to work and finish all these damn documents."

Jarvis smiled. "Do you regret Ariel's decision to leave the office? Haven't you said yourself that Ariel is a person who doesn't have the ability to work in this office, huh?"

"It's not about Ariel, it's about Crystal. I'm thinking about Crystal…"

"Huh?"

"The wound on her leg, this morning when she got out of the car I saw that her left heel was bleeding again and I regret that I didn't force her to go to the hospital last night."
