Chapter 41 - Finding Someone As Weird As You



Chapter 41 - Finding Someone As Weird As You

After April grabbed her bag all three girls left the office together and walked out of the companies lobby together. The cafe was a street away so it was very close by it would only take a few minutes on foot.

Aarna laughed and held April's arm as they walked, "You were a total badass. I mean did you see Emily's face, I am so glad it was you and not me. Emily will be after you now, what are you going to do?"

"I can only state facts and if she doesn't like them what can she do? Is she going to fire me for saying that we are entitled to a break during our shift? She knows she is in the wrong. We will still enjoy our lunch but we will just head back earlier." April smiled at Aarna as she replied.

April thought of her last lifetime and she was feeling empowered with her home, car, a job and now it looks like friends. Her whole last life was taken over and run by Lucy, Rachel and James. She would never live for someone else again.

Sophie watched the two arm in arm chatting and then she smiled, "So what are we getting? If it can't be a long lunch do you guys want to do dinner or drinks sometime?"

They had arrived at the Bluestone Cafe and they entered together.

"What do you think April?" Aarna asked, her brown eyes sparkled as she asked.

"I'll go if you do Aarna, I have never been out for drinks so you will have to take me," April responded. Indeed she had never had the chance to go out on a girls night out so she looked forward to dressing up and having fun.

"Sure, sure I can do that. Okay, so the next big decision is shall we just get some junk food for lunch or be healthy?" Aarna asked as they all looked up at the menu.

The three of them ordered and sat down together with their food and coffees.

Aarna sat beside April they seemed to bond quickly and easily. Sophie still seemed to hold back and April thought that was her personality so she didnt mind it. People open up when they feel comfortable April was the same.

They ate quickly and chatted for abit. On the way back Aarna was bubbly and even more chatty.

"So who is he?" Aarna held Aprils arm again and looked at her with expectant eyes.

"Who is who?" Asked April borrowing her eyebrows.

"Well you are smart, funny and gorgeous you are bound to have a boyfriend." Aarna began listing Aprils qualities which made April roll her eyes.

"No definitely not, who needs one? I'm good on my own." April immediately shut down the thought of love and all it entailed after all hadn't she been through enough already.

"Yea I get that but there is no harm in dating. Your young and beautiful so why not find love? Can I fix you up with someone?" Aarna threw all her questions out at once.

"Nope, love no way." April refused outright.

"Okay, but love is about finding someone just as weird as you. So you can walk amongst the rest of the world like to dorks, who will never feel alone again." Aarna gave her opinion.

"Don't fix me up, but hear what you are saying and if someone comes along I will keep my heart open... Maybe." April liked Aarna's explanation of the ideal type of love. But it wasn't what April had experienced.

"That's all ask and also to tell me all the details."

They walked back into Walker interiors and into the lift. They all walked out of the lift once they reached their floor still chatty until they saw Emily.

Emily stood facing the lift with her arms folded. Emily checked the time on her watch before she stomped off back to her desk.

The three girls looked at each other and quickly went to their own desks. They weren't late, in fact, they ate quickly and came back. April smiled and turned on her laptop as she thought of Emily standing there the whole time waiting. Didn't Emily arrive late to start work and yet she counted the minutes for their break?

The lift door opened and Micheal exited the lift. Today Michael wore a sapphire suit with his hair slicked back. He walked towards April with a cheerful smile ignoring Emily as she approached him.

"Michael, how can I help you?" Emily reached Micheals side and beamed at him.

"It's Mr Palmer and I am here to see my best April, not you." Micheal strode past Emily and walked to April's desk. Once he got to April's desk he smiled at April as he leaned against it.

"Well, how are you settling in?" Michael asked out loud for Emily to hear, he knew how she was and he wanted her to know not to mess with April like she usually did to other staff members.

April looked at Emily's face as it fell and then at Michael, his opal eyes sparkled at her. They were full of mischief.

"Great, I like it here. Just working away on Mr Davis condominium. Oh, I forgot are you free for dinner on Saturday night? I need to thank you for all your help." April asked hopeful and beaming up at Micheal. He was friendly and so easy to talk to. If Micheal went on Saturday along with Casey she would feel more at ease.

She didnt realise it might sound like a date if it was just her and Dean for dinner. She had no trust in men and didnt want to commit to anyone especially after the experience she had in her past life.

So when she was alone with Dean he scared her slightly as he gave her butterflies and she wanted to ignore that feeling. She didnt trust the feeling he gave her.
