Airport

The week of the exhibition was near, Mina had to pack her stuff before her departure time. Aaron stood beside the door with his arms folded across his chest. He'd been standing there for an hour now.

This was the first time Mina was going to leave the house for a week.

Mina turned to look at the guy who was scoffing behind her.

"I'll be leaving soon Aaron, I'm almost done packing, you don't need to stand there."

" Do you still wanna go?" Aaron said entering the room, he back-hugged Mina, burying his head near her neck. He inhaled her scent greedily.

" Yes. I have to. Can you not send any guards ."

" Why?" Aaron asked angrily

"It's nothing," Mina said shaking her head

" What are you planning in that pretty mind of yours, princess? " Aaron pecked her lips while asking.

Mina wasn't in the mood to deal with him.

Done packing, Mike was about to drag her suitcase out when Aaron snatched it away from him.

" I'll hold it. Let's go princess," he said holding Mina's hand.

They descended the stairs with Mina's hand in Aaron's big hand while he held the suitcase with the other. They both went to the garage where they saw Naarah. They all entered the call.

" I must say, this is my first time getting a free ride from Aaron," Naarah commented

Aaron scoffed before saying;

"I am doing this for princess. Take care of her ."

He turned to look at Mina who was immersed in her phone, he placed his hand on her thigh and squeezed it a little to gain her attention.

Mina turned to look at him, but she was startled when Aaron squeezed her thigh.

" What are you looking at on your phone ?"

He felt Mina getting startled when he squeezed her, which made him unhappy.

" N-nothing," Mina said clearing her throat.

She can't tell Aaron that she is looking for her mother, she has secretly hired an investigator to look for her mother and it's been months now but no news and she was also leaving the country for a week. Which was driving her insane.

Getting to the airport, Aaron helped Mina get her suitcase out leaving Naarah to remove her suitcase. Before they could enter, he hugged Mina tightly which he had never done before.

" Goodbye and take care," he said pecking her lips.

Mina hummed, before pulling away, Aaron looked at her as she pulled her suitcase inside the airport. He took in a deep breath before leaving the place.

" Aaron loves you," Naarah uttered

Her statement made Mina chuckle, which made Naarah awe.

" Why are you chuckling?"

" Nothing, I just thought of something."

Naarah looked at her quietly, she didn't know what was going on between these two but she could say one hated the other and the other liked the other.

Getting home, guards greeted his arrival, Aaron felt empty inside when he stepped foot into the house. He'd miss Mina. He couldn't wait to meet her again. He climbed the stairs planning to go to his room but paused when he saw Mina's door, he didn't need her to open it, he had the extra key for her door.
