" oh !! Akira dear , you made me so happy today . I am so proud of you . Why didn't you tell me before about this " Ann said happily .

Her happiness was so infectious , that I myself couldn't stop smiling . " If I had told you before then I won't have got to see this look on your face . Which I so love "

" That's right , but atleast you could have given me a heads up on this , so that I might have been more presentable " she kissed both of my cheeks " Anyway , when are you going to get these photos?".

" If you want , you can have it right now . But it will be printed anyway in the newspapers " I smiled cockley.
" It feels like you want to kill me today . With your amazing news . I will wait till tomorrow for it . Then I will laminate it and put it in my room , as one of the best moments of my life which are all given by you .Thank you so much " .

Ann was uncontrollable now , her waterfalls were everywhere and I didn't knew what to do . " Akira , can I talk to you ? " Ella said . " Yeah sure , I am coming . Are you going to be ok Ann ? " .

" Yes , yes I will be . You go have fun . Its your day . I should be leaving now . But I can't seem to find Michael ?" .
" I saw him going this way , he would be coming soon " . Just then I saw Michael coming with a blank face , he sure doesn't has a lot of expressions

" Akira , that was indeed the second best day of my life . You have made me so proud today " he said . I looked shockingly at him ' I made him proud ' I just met him . This old man is sure is too friendly and weird for my taste.

" I mean the orphanage as a whole " he clarified and I took a breath of fresh air . I smiled at him for the confirmation that I believe him .

" I will see you later dear . This is something I got for you and here is my card , if you don't mind please accept it " he said so expectantly , that I sure take it.

" You didn't had to do this . I just met you I can't take this " I said bluntly as I wanted to make it clear to him that I won't take it . I handed him , the gift .

" Akira , please take it . For my sake " Ann said pleading . I still didn't wanted it , but I didn't wanted to break Ann's heart .

" Ok fine , I will take it . Thank you so much " I said to the old man with annoyance , as I hate it when things don't go my way.

They both departed and I went to Ella " Whats wrong , you seem worried ? " .
" I can't seem to find Edward . I saw him here but when I did came here he was nowhere to be found " she was so worried " Is he going to bail out on our date tonight , thats why he is hiding from me " she was babbling non-stop .

I shook her a little for her to get back to her senses. " Calm down , he won't do anything of this sort . Don't worry about it too much . Lets just go home and lie down . You will feel better". I too needed that . " Maybe you are right I just need some rest . Lets go home ".

Michael's POV

" What do you mean , she had been tried to be kidnapped and where were you ? " I said frustratingly . I so wanted to kill him .

" No , I wasn't " the voice on the other side of the call said .

" So , what were you doing if you were not doing the work I have given you . What should I do about you now " I wanted to smack his head so hard that he won't forget anything ever .

" Sorry sir , but she is indeed safe now " he said hesitantly .

" But not by you. YOU IDIOT , I no longer want your service in this case . I think I have to handle this job on my own now . It has become a pretty dirty game now " .
