The Traps of Black Swan

In the morning,

Aaron woke up in a great mood pushing away the thoughts his Cupcake was still upset over their uncompleted dates and bringing Hayden home.

His wish to start the day by looking at her petite face and wishing her morning left unfulfilled. He couldn\'t believe he was hugging a pillow.

He checked the time to realize it was already eight in the morning. Hoping to see her in her bedroom or dining hall, he went downstairs right after brushing his teeth but found she wasn\'t at home.

"Young Master…" Melia greeted him when he was standing in the middle of the living hall remembering everything that happened. Their evening was meant to be a romantic, cozy time with each other, \'why did I have to agree with President Kelly?\' Aaron thought. 

Aaron hadn\'t left his own grandfather step in there when Jordan didn\'t have good views of Aarvi. He should have been the same stubborn even with her grandfather. Even though he respected the old man for his age, he actually accepted his request because he is Aarvi\'s grandfather. It wasn\'t because he was an elder.

Melia had to shake Aaron\'s arm to get his attention, "Young Master, there is no use in fretting over last night. You should make up for Young Miss\'s efforts and thoughts."

He turned to Melia who had a soft smile trying to make him ease. Anyway, he wanted to know about the previous day, to know how excited Aarvi must have been, to know her efforts for him so that he could feel more guilt and to correct himself better for his Cupcake.

Melia told him everything from the time Aarvi entered inside the mansion with many shopping bags carrying the decor items and she ended when Aarvi sent everyone to rest.

He felt his heart heavier than the previous day, he knew he needed to change his ways, his schedule, and talk to her even if it\'s the smallest thing.

Melia continued after seeing him lost in thoughts, "Young Master, I know you spent a lot of time with Miss when she was unwell, you were cooking breakfast for her, taking her out for lunch, bringing her snacks to her place, again cooking dinner despite so much workload on you."

Melia sighed, it wasn\'t easy for Aaron either who had a conglomerate to look after and also his passion for the medical field. He was tiring himself out to give time for Aarvi when they weren\'t in a relationship. 

Just now he started to relax a little, everything messed up. Probably he wasn\'t the only one to be blamed, the situation was at worst too. "I don\'t think Miss expects anything but a little time of yours."

Melia didn\'t want to continue the other thing because it will hurt him but she chose to tell before something else goes wrong. "In the morning, the panicked maids woke me up early. I rushed out and noticed Young Miss was sitting on the last staircase hugging her knees without moving her eyes from the door."

The maids didn\'t know when Aarvi had returned the previous night. They had assumed she returned and sat there the whole night, for some reason they didn\'t dare to make a noise or talk to her. Her whole being emitted coldness staring at the closed door as if she was going to kill the person who opens the main door.

Aaron\'s brows quivered, he was so tired in the night that as soon as his eyes closed after Aarvi dozed off, he only opened them in the morning. He didn\'t even know when she woke up and replaced the pillow in his arms.

His body went cold at the thought of Aarvi might have got a nightmare and woke up in the middle of the night. He didn\'t wake up and she didn\'t wake him up but stayed alone and awake, god knows how long.

Melia continued, "Once I thought she might be waiting for somebody but no, I couldn\'t make out her feelings, it was like she was a lifeless doll that was placed at the stair." 

Since Melia had rushed out, Aarvi had realized their presence and went upstairs. Melia had seen her sitting by Aaron for a long time before she got ready and left the mansion by completely avoiding talking to anybody.

Aaron could guess what was on her mind. Hayden knows where she lives, she didn\'t like the thought of Hayden dropping at the mansion whenever he wants. Even though the security of the mansion wouldn\'t have let him enter inside, she must have felt vulnerable.

He least wanted her to dislike the Avron mansion so he quickly needs to find the solution to her emotional state which won\'t let her live peacefully in the Avron mansion anymore.

He had lots of work but he ignored everything and started preparation of changes before looking for Aarvi who didn\'t have her mobile.

A week was too much, he felt like he took her for granted just because she understands him and was supportive. He was so lost in her attention and care that he continued to relish without putting in efforts.

Love isn\'t just the beginning when he made things special to make her fall for him. It was simple, sweet everyday gestures to make each of their days beautiful, exciting, and feel loved even if they have to spend just an hour per day.

His only aim: Live the life like he is still courting her.

Melia smiled looking at his eyes shine gaining his spirits back with the same determination. She likes how one doesn\'t wait for another in them. She wasn\'t sad anymore, she could feel them growing stronger together.

Melia was a young girl when she started working as a maid under Aaron\'s grandmother, so she had seen the love of three generations in the Rivas family. She can vouch that the Rivas family men prioritized their spouses or love, then family before anything else.

Of course, she won\'t give credit to the men only, the women they chose weren\'t any less and they were indeed lucky to get the love of their life. Now she wanted to see Shawn and who he will fall in love with.

At half-past eleven,

Aarvi stood in front of the guest entry gate of the biggest celebration hall of the Mocon. The passing by people couldn\'t stop turning to her repeatedly irrespective of their age. 

It might be a small kid or old man, they couldn\'t stop admiring the flawless beauty. Conversely, a pretty teenage girl or old woman couldn\'t stop themselves from being envious of Aarvi.

The security men who were responsible for the safety of socialites, celebrities, and other high-profile officials were definitely intrigued by the lady. They failed to stop swooning when she brushed her slender fingers over her hair lock away from her face.

The security men wanted to strike a conversation with her at least in the name of help as she was standing alone. But they were afraid of offending her as they had noticed her alighting the limited edition Bugatti Divo. Not just anyone could get their hands on the beauty of Divo. However, the simplicity and calmness of the lady were surreal than Divo. 

They felt like a fairy in black from the fantasy world is out for a stroll.

Yes, Aarvi was at Sean Harmon and Sara Dawson\'s engagement party.
