RING RING RING

Aiden's phone went off, startling him out of his half-asleep state. "Hello? Who's this?" Aiden answered, blinking his eyes rapidly to wake himself up. 

"Hey! It's Aru. Do you think we could meet  up at the Coffee House today around 9 am?" Aru's voice came through

"Uh, of course!! I'll meet you there in" at this Aiden checked his watch, 8:32 am, "I'll meet you there in 20 minutes?" Aiden asked, smiling from ear to ear; he was gonna see Aru today! 

"20 minutes it is. See you soon" Aru replied

"Bye" Aiden breathed out as he hung up the phone, still having the biggest smile on his face making his eyes twinkle with excitement. Aiden brushed his teeth and took a quick shower before getting dressed.

He quickly got dressed in a pair of light gray jeans and a black t-shirt. He brushed his hair back like Shah Rukh Khan and put on black sunglasses.

He then got into his black Ferrari and drove off to the Coffee House. When he walked inside he saw Aru sitting at a booth, looking at her phone as she played with one of her wisps of hair distractedly. 

"Hey!" Aiden said, walking over to her and sitting down on the opposite side of the booth.

"Good morning! Sorry if I woke you up." Aru said sheepishly

"Don't worry about it. I was already up. Anyways, you okay? You look worried." Aiden replied

"Yeah, well no. Kinda? Kinda." Aru decided on.

"'Kinda?' What do you mean?" Aiden asked both confused and worried.

"So you know the market about 10 minutes from here?" Aru asked and at Aiden's nod, she continued.

"So whenever I go there, some guys are there and they kinda bothermeandharrassmeandstuff, makingracistcommentsandwhatnot" Aru said, mumbling the last bit.

"They what?" Aiden questioned, his eyebrows knitted together in confusion.

"They kinda bother me and harass me and stuff. Making racist comments and whatnot." Aru repeated

Aiden's expression hardened, "Where can I find them?" He said, a merciless look in his eyes

Aru walked out of the jewelry store, wearing her new gold bangle with lighting designs when three Caucasian men walked over to her.

"You buy that today? Give me a kiss and you'll get a bracelet and another little something." The leader, said with a teasing smirk as he looked Aru up and down.

Aru backed away when Aiden walked in front of her. He really looked like a gang heir in his black attire; black sunglasses, leather jacket, t-shirt and jeans.

"Who are you? Get out of our way." Another man said, a bearded guy.

"Aiden Acharya. Now, leave her alone." Aiden said, moving his leather jacket to show his gun and two daggers as he took a menacing step forward. 

"Oh yeah? What are you gonna do?" The leader asked, putting on a tough face over his scared one as he looked at the weapons. His brain processed that he was speaking to one of the most feared people in Sofia and as soon as he understood, he paled making him look like a ghost.
