Aiden who somehow knew she would ask that question paused a while before answering her carefully...
He too had asked himself this question many times...
Why did he love interfering in everything that concerned Malisa and her friends?
Is it because of the fact that she was now his legal wife according to law or what?
Or perhaps because he cared a lot about her like a lot?
Or maybe it's the two?
Whatever it was, he just felt it was normal for him to lend a helping hand to, Gabriella since she's Malisa's friend.
" I just did what anyone would have done, Mali... "
" I know... But not in this case... What you did wasn't just what anyone would have done. You didn't really have to interfere but you did... "
" Mali... Let's say, I did that for some selfish reasons... "
Indeed, Aiden also had some selfish motive behind what he did...
He was aware of how uninterested his friend had been in women...
But now that he had a woman living under the same roof as him...
Maybe he might turn a new leaf and fall in love at most...
Though, Gabriella would be benefiting most in the end... Yet it's very worth it.
" Oh... Just hoping it won't affect my best friend in a bad way.."
" It won't. " he assured.
" Hm... Okay. "
" By the way, The form for the college entrance exam is now out... Are you interested? "
" Of course... Which University is it? "
" The university of your choice. "
" Wow! Really? But isn't that college too expensive? "
" It is... But I can afford it. "
" You... You can't be this nice to me... " Malisa murmured.
" I can... "
" You know, sometimes I wonder if you are really interested in me for you to be this nice to me... Like really. "
" Well... Maybe I am... "
" That's not totally impossible. Though there's an high probability that you won't be interested in someone like me. " Malisa commented thoughtfully.
" Oh... Why do you say that? "
" Well... I am not french. "
" Culture or nationality doesn't it matter when it comes to the heart... "
" Hm... Secondly, I am too much younger than you. "
" That also doesn't matter. "
" Thirdly, I am not educated. "
" Self education is the most essential type of education. You've got that and also, you are very smart and talented. "
" Hm... Maybe. "
" What other contradiction do you have? "
" You are the president of a multinational company. There are lots of women who are more than willing to throw themselves at you. You don't lack women so there's no way you'll be interested in someone like me. "
" Hm... You've got a point. But like I said earlier. All of this factors doesn't matter when it comes to the heart. We can't really control who we fall in love with. You know... "
" Maybe you are right... Though I think every one of us have our preference in love. "
" Yeah... Why don't you tell me about the type of man you'll like to fall in love with.. "
" Really? Don't you think this conversation is becoming weird? " Malisa smiled...
" No... You are really an interesting person. So there's no way I'll get bored talking to you. "
" Well... If you say so. "
" So tell me, What's your preference? "
" The truth is, I haven't thought much about it... I believe that everyone on planet Earth has a divinely destined partner and when the time comes, there would be no stopping their connection... "
" You are right... "
" Why don't you tell me why you forbidded Mary from having a boyfriend until she turns eighteen? "
" Well... I want her to focus solely on her studies for now as that's what's important. Having a boyfriend at this stage won't do her any good. She won't be able to concentrate fully on her studies if she does. "
" You are right... If I had a younger sister in her early teens then the advice I would have given her is to not fall in love at this stage as it won't do her any good... It'll only make her lose focus from what's ahead. She might also get heartbroken if she is not careful and ends up in the wrong hands. So it's better to wait than to jump into a relationship now and regret it latter. "
" Hm... You are right... Romantic relationships should be left for people who are ready to get married and not students who are still in the early stage of their life.. "
" Yep... But the question is, what if you fall in love early in life? Like when you are sixteen or seventeen? Feelings isn't something that can be controlled just like that, you know... "
" Hm... Then I would suggest you should set your priorities and get to decide what's most important. Having trusted elders around who understands what you are going through would go a lot way too... "
" Yeah... But the problem is that most teens don't have elders around who understand them... "
" Hm... And that's why there are lots of mentors online. "
" Yeah... Though not all teens have access to the internet... "
" It's no wonder many teens end up making wrong decisions and choices that ends up affecting their future... "
" Right... And it's very saddening... "

A/N : Hm... Really... What do you think, guys?
