Tiara POV:

"

Raymond is undoubtedly a nice person. I am so glad I met him. I slowly went inside the house and was greeted by Mr. Carlos. He understood I was tired and offered to bring my Dinner to my room and I was so thankful to him for that.

As soon I got freshened up and had my dinner, I just wrote the day's events in my diary and as soon as I closed my diary, my eyes refused to stay open any longer.

With the aroma of brewing coffee, I woke up and got ready to get downstairs. I was greeted by the adorable couple Mr & Mrs D'Souza, but I could see they were not at their cheerful best.

''Mrs. Lyna is everything fine?''

''Hmm''

It was very rare that she just says a ''hmm''. I turned to see Mr. Carlos was also immersed in deep thoughts.

''I am sure something is wrong. I know I should not invade in your personal matters, but still if I could be of any help please let me know.''

''Nothing ma gal. We are worried about Nick. He was supposed to come a month later, but I got a call that he will be visiting us very soon''

''Nick'' my lips unknowingly took his name in a slow manner

''Yes Nick. Sasha's friend''

Listening to Sas name I was so happy.

''isn't it great, I mean why are you worried if he would be coming around''

''he is not a great guy to host and moreover with the sort of gir..''

Mrs. Lyna squeezed to stop Mr. Carlos from saying any further and I could see a tint of uneasiness in Mr. Carlos face. I definitely wanted to know the complete matter but somehow I didn't want to force them and intrude their privacy.

''nothing to worry darling. Let him come anytime. We will see whatever happens later''

I gave a smile and bid them bye to proceed to my office. Thinking of Nick, led me think about Sas. I have been trying to connect to her ever since I arrived here, but she never responded. I sent out text messages in hope that she would reply, but that didn't happen too. I am hoping everything is fine in London. Now with the strange behaviour of Mr & Mrs D'Souza regarding Nick my thoughts were going in all directions. What did they actually want to say? Why are they not comfortable in hosting Nick? I hope he is not bad or wrong, that's because I know Sas likes him a lot. For Sas, Nick is more than a friend.

Arriving at my stop I got down and walked straight away to the desk. Julia greeted me at the reception I smiled back, because I was not in right mood. My thoughts weren't calm and I donno I was kind of feeling something bad might have happened or would be happening. I mentally prayed that nothing bad or wrong should happen. Before starting my work I quickly sent a text to Sas's number. Next, I indulged myself in the work to get some peace and break from my not so good thoughts.

After an hour Ms. Mathilde sent me a mail that I had my meeting from 12:00 to 13:00 hrs and that I can choose my lunch time either from 11:00 to 12:00 or from 13:00 to 14:00 hrs. I gently replied I would take it from 13:00 to 14:00 hrs for which I got an instant approval from her.

Prepping up for my first meeting with the client, I got back to my work. That's when My mobile buzzed. Getting away from desk to pick a cup of coffee, I picked the mobile

''Hey Sweetheart'' the other side replied

''Nicholas'' I smiled taking his name

''Thank God you remember me''

''off course I didn't forget, come on''

''Great, thank you for that.''

''Ivan I have something to say''

''what? That you have come to Paris and are working for Samson's?''

''Yes. But how do you know. I mean I haven't contacted you and wait a minute, where did you get my number from''

''Forget about that. Tell me when can we meet? Finally"

''Meet? Are you crazy? I mean I am in Paris Nicholas and you are in Lon''

''Paris even''

''What? I mean when? I mean how? I mean''

''Relax. I said right I would meet you, so as soon as I got to know you are in Paris, freed from the cage, I just came here''

I smiled in response

''Now, don't smile and tell me are you free for lunch today''

I gave a thought and said

''if you can meet me around 13:00 today. But please I need to be at my desk at 14:00 hrs ''

''done, I will text you the place and will wait for you there''

"Listen Nicholas "

"Yeah sweetheart''

"I can come, but how to recognise you? I mean I haven't met you in person till now''

''don't worry, I can recognise you well. So I will coming directly to receive you at the venue''

''fine. I gotta go now. See you in couple of hours''

''bye''

The call ended and I got back to my desk. The first meeting with my client went smooth. I didn't by any means mess it up and Ms. Mathilde was happy with my performance. I already received text from Nicholas of where to meet. I left the office to meet him.

This is the first time I am actually meeting Nicholas in person. I don't know how he looks. He was my online friend. We spoke lot of times through Sas mobile. Slowly we started talking once in a while and he was very good to me. Some days later he said he would be calling me ''sweetheart''because I was really sweet with a kind heart. I was not comfortable but then I gotused to.
 
He once insisted me to send my photo and I right away denied. He asked me if I wanted to see him, I said NO then. As time flew we chatted every day and then for the first time I opened up to him about my situation in London. He suggested me to apply for jobs and get out of the place. I was very much scared, but he asked me to be confident. I spoke about him to Sas and Sas was also happy and she encouraged me to do what Nicholas said. I started thinking and found no harm. After all I wanted an independent life. One incident led to other and him one day said that there was job opening in Samson's and my qualification was actually complete match to job profile. He and Sas were behind me and I gathered courage. Once I got the job offer, I informed him and he was very happy and congratulated me the whole day as if he got a job not I. He then promised me that he would meet me once I settle in Paris. Amid all this I honestly agree that I started liking him and I wouldn't mind to date him, if he asks me. I had my reasons, he never forced me to send my pics or made me uncomfortable. There was absolutely no R rated talk. He was very cordial. He spoke like a true gentleman. He cared regarding everything about me. He understood me and my feelings that my parents couldn't. The bold steps I took was because of his encouragement and with the help of Sas. Now here I am going to meet him finally and I am actually excited.
