Falling in Love : I love you, Today and Forever

Chapter 150 - Appetizing

Meanwhile in Ivy's apartment.

After disconnecting Max's call, Ivy looked at the time. It was a few minutes past four and her lazy bug of a sister was still sleeping. Aria had night duty that day. So, she had spent the entire day sleeping. The previous night, she couldn't stop thinking about what had happened between her and Noah. Every time she closed her eyes, Noah's seductive face would come in her mind making her blush.

Aria couldn't get an ounce of sleep for a long time. Finally, when dawn broke out, her tired eyes closed and she fell into a deep sleep. She did not wake up until Ivy called her to have lunch and immediately after eating, she had dashed to her room to cuddle with her bed once again. Now it was past four and she had not yet come out.

Aria had informed Ivy that her shift would start at six and not to wake her up until five. So, she had not bothered to disturb her again. However, to her surprise, Aria herself got up and walked out of her room with a hair similar to a bush. Rubbing her sleepy eyes, she plopped on the couch and yawned loudly. 

"Good morning, sleeping beauty."

"Morning." Aria gave her a cheeky grin and stretched her hands above her head. Her body had become stiff, and now she tried to relax her muscles.

"Is there anything to eat? I am hungry." Aria asked like a small kid. Ivy smiled at her antics, she still looked like a girl who would ask her chocolates in the past whenever she was hungry. The only difference now was that she did not ask her chocolates but for food.

"Go, wash yourself. I'll prepare some snacks for you. Do you want me to pack your dinner or will you buy it in the hospital?"

"Can you pack a box, if it not much trouble? I want to eat the food made by you today." Aria's eyes sparkled when she heard that Ivy was going to pack her dinner. The hospital food was good, but she preferred Ivy's food more. It was delicious and it suited her taste buds more.

"Okay. Now, you go. Get ready."

While Ivy prepared her food, Aria rushed to take a bath. Being a doctor, she was highly hygienic had the habit of taking a bath every day. If she missed even a day, she felt that worms were crawling all over her body. It didn't take long for her to complete her bath. However, the biggest problem occurred when she noticed the hickey on her neck. She had chosen a normal blouse for work. Due to the hickey, she had to change to a turtle neck sweater.

The entire time she was getting dressed, she did not forget to curse Noah. It was his work that had led to such a situation. On a second thought, she was quite satisfied with her attire, the weather was turning cold. So, it was better that she had covered herself with warm clothes. The one thing she hated was cold and winter. Winter was not her season, it always made her sulk and moody. She preferred spring. The season brought smiles on her face.

By the time, she was done getting ready, Ivy had also packed her food and she had prepared her snacks to fill her stomach. Aria did not waste any more time and started hogging food.

"Aria, Max and the others had a meeting with Noah."

"Umm." She replied and stuffed another piece of cutlet. They were so delicious that she did not even hear what Ivy was talking about. All that mattered about was food.

"He has agreed to sponsor us. Now, we need to prepare a full proof plan to start work. My brother-in-law is amazing."

"Amazing." Aria licked her lips and took another bite. Her actions made Ivy laugh. Though she knew Aria was talking about food, she could as well twist the tales and have some fun.

"Aria, how do you describe him in one word?" She teased, purposely reducing her voice at the word 'him'. Just as she had expected, Aria misunderstood Ivy's word and assumed her to be talking about the cutlet.

"Appetizing." She blurted out without thinking. 

"Is it?"

Aria nodded innocently. She was so busy in finishing her plate that she did not see the playful smirk on her sisters face. The innocent Aria did not even know that her sister had recorded their entire conversation on her phone. She licked her lips and patted her belly in utter satisfaction. 

"So, you were asking something?" Aria finally fixed her gaze on Ivy. She had not heard a word her sister had said. All she could hear was some muffled words as her entire concentration was on her plate. Now that her main task was done, she could concentrate on the other tasks.

"Did you not hear what you just said?" 

"What did I say?" Aria was confused. 'Did I say something weird to her right now? Why she is looking at me like I am a lunatic?'

"You just called my brother-in-law to be appetizing." Ivy gave her a teasing smirking, shocking Aria.

"No, I didn't." Aria denied at once. She had not said anything of that sort. 

"Yes, you did. Just now."

Finally, it struck her what had happened. What she had assumed to be about food, was in fact about Noah. Her sister had tricked her. Aria didn't hesitate to complain about it. "You tricked me."

"No, I didn't."

"Yes, you did."

"What proof dod you have?" Ivy folded her hands and looked at her sternly. Ivy knew that did not have an proof against her while she had the voice note.

"I don't have anything. But..." As she was speaking, her eyes fell on her watch and she jumped at once. "Oh my God. I am going to be late." She dashed to her room to get her things.

Ivy laughed seeing at her behave like a scared mouse. "Aren't you driving your car today?"

"No. I don't think I will have the patience to drive it back tomorrow. It's best to hail a cab. I would have asked you to drop me. But, not a problem." Aria said as she checked her purse.

"Take care," Ivy shouted after her when she left the house. The house became silent the next moment. She took out her phone and edited the voice note and sent it to Noah, with a smirk on her face.

The poor guy did not even know that two women in just one day had compared him to a delicacy and the astonishing fact was that one among them was his girlfriend. Now that Ivy had sent him the note, he would find out eventually.
