Chapter 47 Not Expected

"I will ask Theo's permission first!" Stella said while looking at Flora, "Yeah, you should do that!" Flora told her, and Stella nodded her head.
They waited for a couple of minutes for Theo to come back, "Hey!" Stella greeted him when he entered the house. "Hey, everything's okay?" Theo asked her right away. "I want to tell you something!" Stella told him, "What is it?" Theo asked her again.
"We are planning to visit my sister!" Stella told him, which made Theo freeze. "Where?" Theo asked her, "In the city!" Stella answered. Theo didn't say anything and just looked at her, "Are you going with Flora?" He asked her, "Yeah, I will be with her!" Flora answered, and Theo nodded his head.
"If something wrong happens, just call me!" Theo told them, and Stella immediately smiled at him. "Really?" Stella asked him, "Of course, I trust you!" Theo answered. 
Stella couldn't hide her excitement and ran towards him, "Uh oh!" Flora said when Stella hugged Theo in front of her. 
Flora looked away and smiled when she thought about Stella being happy with Theo. "I will just take a shower!" Theo told them and went to his room. "What?" Stella asked her best friend when she caught Flora looking at her.
"You are so sweet, huh!" Flora complimented her, which made Stella blush. "Stop!" Stella told her while laughing. "When are we going to leave?" Flora asked her, and they became serious.
"I will drive, right?" Stella asked her, and Flora nodded her head. "Maybe tomorrow morning?" Stella added, and Flora agreed with her. "I will go now to pack my things!" Flora told her and stood up from the couch. 
"Be careful!" Stella told her, which made Flora smile at her. "I will! See you tomorrow!" Flora said and waved her hand at her.
Flora went to the main door and opened it while Stella followed her outside. "You are being too kind, huh!" Flora told her, and they reached Flora's car. "You should drive safely!" Stella warned her best friend again. 
Flora went inside her car and started the engine, "Bye!" She said to Stella and closed the window. Stella watched her car leave and decided to go back inside their house. 
"Where's Flora?" Stella was startled when Theo showed up, "She went home!" Stella answered and walked into the living room. "Should I go with you?" Theo asked her, which made Stella stop moving. "You're not busy?" Stella asked him, and Theo shook his head.
"I can make time for you!" Theo answered and smiled at her, "Nah! We can handle that!" Stella told him and patted the space beside her. Theo sat beside her, "If you want me to be there just call me right away." Theo told her, and Stella nodded her head.
Lunch came, and they decided to eat outside.  "Are you done?" Theo asked her while knocking on the door. "Yes!" Stella answered and opened the door. Theo immediately looked at her and smiled, "You look stunning!" Theo praised her. "Oh! Thank you!" Stella answered and also smiled at him.
They went outside the house, and Theo opened the door for Stella. "Where are we going to eat?" Stella asked him when Theo went inside the car. "Where do you want to eat?" Theo also asked her, "I am the one who is asking here!" Stella answered while laughing at him. 
"I will consider your suggestion tho!" Theo told her, and Stella nodded her head. "Fine!" Stella said and gave up, "Let's go!" She added and smiled at him. "Yes, ma'am!" Theo answered and started driving away.
"Should we invite them?" Stella asked Theo while they were on their way to the restaurant. "Who?" Theo confusingly looked at her, "Your father and Brandon!" Stella answered and also looked at him.
"Why? We don't need to do that! They are also busy with their own lives." Theo answered, and Stella nodded her head. "I'm just asking!" Stella told him and smiled at him. They reached the restaurant and Theo opened the door for Stella again. "Thank you!" Stella thanked him, and Theo nodded his head.
They went inside the restaurant, and a staff member welcomed them. "A reservation for Theo Alarick, right?" The staff member asked them, and Theo nodded his head. "She knows you?" Stella whispered to him, "I used to eat alone here!" Theo said, and the staff member escorted them to their table. 
Theo pulled the chair and made Stella sit on the chair, "Hey! You are serving me too much!" Stella told him, which made Theo laugh. "It is fine, Stella!" Theo told her and sat in front of Stella.
The waiter went to their table and gave them the menu, "What do you want to eat?" Theo asked Stella. "Steak?" Stella asked him, and Theo smiled at her. "You are depending on me, huh?" Theo told her, and they both laughed at each other.
They decided what they were going to eat and gave it to the waiter. "Thank you!" Theo told the waiter and gave back the menu. "Should we serve the wine, sir?" A lady went to their table. 
Stella couldn't stop looking at her because of how she looked, "Yes, please!" Theo answered and smiled at the lady. Stella kept looking at the lady, and Theo noticed it. "Why, Stella?" Theo asked her, "She's so beautiful!" Stella answered while looking at the lady. 
"Do you want to talk to her?" Theo asked her, and Stella immediately shook her head. "No, I can't do that!" Stella answered while shaking her head. Theo laughed at her, "Okay, chill!" He said while laughing.
Their main course was served and they started eating, "You like your food?" Theo asked her, and Stella nodded her head. "I like this place now!" Stella answered after chewing her food.
"Thank you for liking this place!" Theo told her, and Stella took a sip of her wine. "Theo!" They were startled when a woman came to their table. 
Stella looked at the woman then to Theo, "Do I know you?" Theo asked the woman. "Yes—
"Security?" Theo called security right away and didn't let the woman talk. Stella was confused at what was happening and looked at Theo, "Hey, calm down!" She told Theo. 
"Stay here and wait for me." Theo told her and looked at the woman. The security came and got the woman, "Hey, be careful!" Stella told the security, but they didn't listen to her. "Stella!" Theo scolded her, which made Stella stop.
Stella just watched them leave and couldn't do anything to help the woman. She was looking around and no one noticed what happened earlier, "Dang! No one saw that?" Stella asked herself. 
Theo came back and immediately sat on his chair, "Where is she?" Stella asked him right away. "Let's eat again, Stella!" Theo told her and didn't answer what she asked him. Stella nodded her head and got his fork again, "Do you know her—
"Stop asking about her, Stella!" She froze when Theo looked at her aggressively. "I told you, stop!" Theo added and glared at her. Stella didn't say anything and just nodded her head.
Even though she didn't want to eat again, Stella forced herself to finish her meal. She drank the wine from her glass and looked at Theo, "Can you drop me at my father's house?" Stella asked him, which made Theo confused. "Why?" Theo asked her, "I want to talk to my father about my sister." Stella answered and looked at his eyes. 
"Fine, I will wait for—
"I will sleep there!" Stella immediately cut what he was saying. Theo looked at her seriously and nodded his head, "Let's go!" Theo told her and called the waiter to pay for their meals.
The waiter came and gave them the receipts, and Theo paid for their meal. After paying for their meals, they went outside the restaurant. "Let's go?" Theo asked her, and Stella nodded her head.
Theo opened the door for her, and Stella smiled at him. "Thank you!" Stella told him and went inside the car. Theo closed the door and went to the other side of the car. "I'm sorry for what happened earlier!" Theo told her right away, "It's fine!" Stella answered while looking outside.
Theo started driving and they reached Elder Remus' house. "We are here! Are you sure that you are going to sleep here?" Theo asked her once again, "Yes, goodbye!" Stella answered and went outside the car.
Theo watched her walk towards the house, and Stella knocked on the main door. 
Stella was waiting for her father to open the door for her, "Oh! You are here!" Elder Remus was startled to see his daughter outside their house. "I will sleep here tonight!" Stella answered and went inside their house.
Elder Remus looked at Theo's car before going back inside their house. "Is that Theo?" Elder Remus asked his daughter, "Yeah, he will just drop me here!" Stella answered and sat on the couch.
"You fought with him?" Elder Remus asked his daughter again, which made Stella look at her father. "Not at all!" Stella answered and lay on the couch. "You should go home with him." Elder Remus told her, but Stella shook her head.
"I want to sleep here, Dad!" Stella told her father and stood up from the couch. "And I want to tell you something!" She added, which made her father stop forcing her to leave. "What is it?" Elder Remus asked her, "I'm planning to visit Daisha tomorrow." Stella answered, and Elder Remus immediately smiled at her.
"Really? You are going to do that?" Elder Remus asked her, and Stella nodded her head. "Flora will accompany me tomorrow!" Stella answered. "That's great! Tell your sister to come home!" Elder Remus said and held Stella's hand. "You can do that, right?" Elder Remus added, which made Stella smile at her father. 
"Yes, I can!" Stella answered even though she was not sure that she could do that. "I will let you use my car tomorrow." Elder Remus said and gave her a thumbs up. "I will sleep now. Go to your room if you want to sleep." He added and went to his room.
Stella didn't say anything and just nodded her head, "He wants to see Daisha now!" She told herself and walked into her room.
When she opened the door, she was surprised when her things were perfectly aligned to their places. Nothing was changed and her room was also clean, "I want to sleep now!" She said and lay on her bed.
The next day came and Stella woke up early. She finished cooking their breakfast when she noticed that she was alone in their house. She was walking into the living room when she saw a letter on the centre table.
She got the letter and read it,
'I left my key car here so you can use it later! Make sure to bring your sister back home!'
After Stella read the letter, she ruined it and threw it into the trash bin. "He just wants to see Daisha and not me." Stella told herself and went to the dining area.
She started eating alone when her phone rang from a call. She hesitated to answer it when it was Theo, who was calling her.
"Hey!" Stella greeted him after accepting his call. "I'm outside of your house. I brought some of your things." Theo answered, which made Stella stand up right away.
She walked towards the main door and opened it. She saw Theo standing next to his car, "Good morning!" He greeted Stella as soon as he saw her. "Good morning! Thank you for doing this!" Stella said, and Theo patted her shoulder.
"I know that you were startled at what I did yesterday, I'm really sorry! I just don't want to ruin our meal." Theo explained, and Stella was listening to him attentively. "It is fine, Theo! You should forget about it!" Stella told him and smiled at him.
"I will wait for you in our house." Theo said and hugged her tightly. Stella let him hug her even though she was still confused about what happened yesterday. 
"See you again!" Stella told him, and Theo bid his goodbyes to her.
