Chapter 138 Nervous Hearts
Meanwhile, in the cinema room, Aurora was showing the features of the room to Sam and the rest.
"This screen is so big!" Sam exclaimed.
"This room is better than most cinemas!" Sayuri said with admiration.
They proceeded to walk around the room with shining eyes.
"Aurora-chan, we can ask something to Sylph here too?" Shizuka asked to cover Ayia and Theo's absence.
Everyone's eyes lit up when they heard that, they didn't even notice that there were two fewer people in their group.
"Can we?" June said excitedly.
"Of course!" Aurora giggled.
"Let's take a seat and you guys can see Sylph doing something amazing!" Aurora said as she took a seat on one of the comfy couches.
Everyone else took a seat and waited with shining eyes.
"Sylph, can you play the first episode of [Magic Girls] Anime?" Aurora asked.
Two seconds later, they saw the lights in the room dimming and the screen lit up with the projection.
"Can you also bring us some popcorn and juice for us?" Aurora said out loud.
"Yes, master Aurora!" Sylph's voice reverberated throughout the cinema.
Shortly after, everyone saw that the anime started.
They could see that the room was skillfully designed.
The sound was perfectly placed, and the screen had high definition.
They were amazed by the quality of the cinema as they watched the anime.
After 5 minutes that Aurora placed her order with Sylph, everyone saw drones entering the cinema carrying boxes.
The drones stopped in front of each one of them and delivered a box to them.
They took the box and the drones left.
When they opened the box they saw there was a bucket of popcorn and a drink.
Everyone was amazed at this service.
The most amazing thing was that Sylph registered which drink each one liked during the party, and she prepared these specific drinks for each one of them.
They took the popcorn and drink with shining eyes.
They watched the anime with excitement as they ate the popcorn and drank.
The darkroom and their excited mood managed to cover the disappearance of Theo and Ayia.
'Ayia-chan, this is all I can do for you. I hope you have the courage to do it...' Shizuka thought as she saw everyone so distracted that they didn't even notice that Theo and Ayia weren't there,
Meanwhile, in the backyard, Theo and Ayia were looking at each other after their kiss.
Ayia suddenly felt a wave of embarrassment after being so bold.
She let go of Theo and took a step back.
"I-I hope you liked your second g-gift." Ayia stammered with a low voice.
Theo was a little overwhelmed after being kissed by such a beautiful girl.
Ayia, together with Aurora, was one of the most beautiful girls he had ever seen.
So, it was normal for him to be speechless.
He did not know how to proceed, it was the first time that such a beautiful girl took the initiative to kiss him.
Therefore, he was confused.
But when he saw her nervous face, he couldn't smile.
"Of course! I loved it!" Theo said with a gentle smile.
When she heard his gentle voice, she lifted her head and saw his smile.
She blushed and looked away.
"I don't want you to think that I'm forcing you to act on this situation. I just want you to think about me in this situation more. If you someday want to act, I will wait for you. I don't want our friendship to be ruined by this either." Ayia said with a determined voice.
The last thing she wanted was that her love for Theo to affect her friendship with him, she preferred to never be with him romantically than lose him as a friend.
"I have to be honest. I never faced this type of situation before. I never involved myself romantically with anyone else." Theo said.
Ayia tightened her fists when she heard that. She was prepared for the worse, his refusal.
"But I felt something in my heart that I never felt before when you kissed me. Maybe we can take things slow? I don't want to make you sad. So, maybe we can continue living our lives normally, but we can also try to make this work?" Theo said with a nervous voice.
He was indeed nervous, he had never had this type of conversation with a girl before.
His heart was beating loudly in his chest, he would be lying if he said that he did not feel anything towards Ayia.
He felt that she completed him in so many ways, but he still felt that she was too much sand for his little truck.
She was so beautiful and came from such a prestigious family.
He wanted to take things slow so that they could see if this could work.
Ayia felt her heartbeat even faster when she heard that, she felt that it was a dream.
Her love was said yes!
Even though he said to take things slowly, to her nervous heart that was enough.
She smiled at him with shining eyes.
"Thank you! I agree with taking things slowly." She said happily.
"Good!" Theo smiled at her too.
"How about we go back to them?" Theo asked.
"Oh yeah, I hope they didn't notice our absence." Ayia replied.
They laughed as they walked back to the cinema room.
They didn't talk much, but both of them could feel the happiness of the other.
Their hands almost touched each other as they walked, but their hearts were beaming with excitement about their future.
They sneaked into the cinema room as the Aurora and the rest were watching the anime.
They were so amazed by the cinema that they didn't even notice Ayia and Theo sneaking in.
Theo and Ayia giggled when they saw that.
A while later, the anime episode ended and the light was turned on.
"That was amazing!"
"This is the best cinema in town!"
"Aurora-chan, you have to call us to watch something here again!"
Shizuka looked to the side and saw Ayia with a silly smile on her face.
'It seems that she succeeded.' Shizuka thought as she smiled too.
She hoped that her sister could be happy.
They left the cinema and they talked excitedly about it.
"How was it?" Shizuka asked with a whisper as they left the cinema.
"It was amazing! I will tell you everything later!" Ayia whispered back in excitement.
She couldn't wait to tell her sister how things went.
The group proceeded to tour the rest of the house and they loved it.
The tour ended when they saw the terrace.
They noticed that terrace was another great place to throw parties.
The night ended as Theo and Aurora walked everyone out.
Theo's birthday was great for everyone.
"Thank you so much for coming, guys!" Theo said as he saw everyone leaving.
"Don't worry about it, boss!"
"Yeah, we had so much fun!"
"Call us to swim in your lake, Theo!"
Theo replied to everyone with a smile.
They left as Theo and Aurora observed them.
"Thank you for the amazing night, cupcake!" Theo said as he hugged his sister.
"You're welcome, big brother!" Aurora said with a sweet voice.
"Oh, I haven't given your gift yet!" She said suddenly.
"No?" He replied.
"Of course not! Come with me!" She said as she pulled him upstairs.
A while later, they arrived at the living room of the ground floor.
Aurora took a small box that was on the table.
"Happy Birthday, big brother!" She said with a smile.
Theo was curious as he took the gift and proceeded to open it.
Inside of it, there was a cute mug with pictures of him, Aurora, and Mayia.
Aurora knew that her brother didn't want any expensive gifts so she figured he might like a mug.
He always liked to drink coffee in mugs with strange styles.
Theo's eyes lit up when he saw the mug.
"That's perfect, cupcake!"
"Thank you!" Theo said in excitement.
Aurora heaved a sigh of relief when she saw that he liked it.
Theo hugged his sister.
Theo really liked the mug, he now had a new favorite mug.
The siblings talked about their night as they walked toward their bedroom.
Theo went to sleep that night feeling loved and happy.
Tomorrow he would go back to work on his album, he was looking forward to that.
