Chapter 28 – Courting Her
Hiiii. It's me, Margee!
I don't know what dream I had before this, I never thought Isaac would suddenly start sending short messages to me and since then we became intensely connected via message applications .... Several times he called me, and occasionally we agreed to have tea after I got home from work .... Talking about many things, and especially, sharing our life stories. Turns out there's a lot I don't know about you, Ikey! Including your favorite movie and your favorite band... I thought I knew all along but I was wrong. I'm grateful because you're finally willing to approach me, even though I still don't understand why are you suddenly approaching me. Did... did Isaac already know that I had feelings for him all this time? Oh no! No. There's no way he would know... how would he know?
Never mind Margee, rather than worrying about it, it's better to just enjoy your current time together with him. When else would he have as much free time as he does now? Imagine, someone as busy as Isaac, who almost every week has to fight on the circuit, but during his vacation this time he seems to spend more time with me.
And how lucky was I, to be asked by Isaac to Monato to be his date at the FIA awards night a few days ago! Oh Ike, having come this far, are you giving me hope? Why don't you say anything about our relationship?
Ah Margee, why are you so impatient? Who knows what Isaac's plan is, especially since he just broke up with Tanya a few months ago, maybe it's not that easy for him to build a relationship with another woman again. Be patient, if he's meant for me, he's not going anywhere, is he?
And that Saturday, Isaac took me to lunch at one of his favorite cafes.
"Wow, I can't believe it's already the end of the year, Ike! You're about to return to your usual routine, no time to hang out with friends anymore, do you?"
Isaac laughed. "Yeah, it's not like there's no time at all. I could work on it. As I've said before, Marg, I'm freer now. It seemed like I had no other social life apart from being with Tanya, but now that's all changed."
"Oh... I see."
"But that doesn't seem to apply to Aldo, does it, Marg? Since the last time I saw him... that was about half a year ago! After that, I haven't seen him again. I think he's even busier than me, huh??" Isaac laughed.
I nodded. "Aldo is super busy, Ike! All I know is he's in Sydne. And have you heard, Aldo gets the title of favorite DJ? Aldo beats 99 other DJs who are just as cool, his talent and skills have been recognized by all clubbers around the world!"
"Hey, that's cool!!"
"Yeah! The way of life is unexpected, Ike. Aldo has become a famous DJ. You, a famous F1 racer. You must have a lot of fans, right?"
"Haha, maybe not that many. Indeed, some people like me, but some don't like me. Everything's normal." Isaac was silent for a moment, then grinned. "I remember something... it was the Indianarolls Grand Prix, last year. There was a girl, about fifteen years old. She was sweet, smart, and energetic, her name was Camila. I forgot her last name, but I know it was Iralian name. She seduced me, Marg. Imagine, today's children dare to seduce a man they don't know at all!"
"What? Little kid, fifteen years seducing you? Must be a naughty girl."
Isaac shook his head. "No, no. I'm sure she's not that kind of girl. I think she's just curious because she says she's in love with me. I get compliments, I'm the perfect guy, I'm the best quality guy, I'm so adorable! Anyway, she could have made those words herself! But I answered all of her words... I didn't give in, well, we even argued! Until in the end, she gave up because she didn't know how to seduce me anymore. That's when she said that I'm so adorable to her, then she kissed my cheek!" Isaac chuckled. "I'll never forget that girl. She's a smart, determined, and stubborn fan. I don't mean stubborn in the sense of a bad girl, but a stubborn teenage girl! I'm so curious, what's her last name? How come I forgot?"
