Chapter 101 - Good going

Diana suddenly burst into laughter, which made Wilson raised his brow at her. "Who wouldn't want to spy on you when you're this hot." Said Diana.

"Am I now?" Asked Wilson.

"You are." She said and look into his eyes, her expression suddenly changing into a serious one, without any sign of kidding around "even when you look lost and sad, you still are." she added, making Wilson gaze waver.

He averted his gaze and poured himself a drink, his eyes blinking profusely, but Diana couldn't see that, as he hid it well.

Taking a sip from his wine, he felt his nerves relaxed. He turned toward Diana again and saw her eyes glowing, heavy with tears, that was threatening to fall.

Tara has finally calm down and muted herself again immediately Diana bursted into laughter.

This isn't only about acting anymore, as Diana felt her heart ache immediately Wilson determined gaze wavered.

She's someone with pain as well, and couldn't help but wonder what could make a determined gaze of a man took a quick turn at the mention of lonely and sad.

Wilson expression is back to normal again, he's a man after all. Even though he was shocked to see Diana eyes heavy with tears; he's not an idiot, who will fall for a woman's tears and lost his sense of reasoning.

"I didn't see that coming." He replied honestly.

Looking sideways, Diana took a deep breath and regained her composure. Wilson studied her every action and couldn't find much odd in her.

Her actions were natural, but the way she called his name and said it's really him, couldn't let his suspicion rest no matter what.

"Why would I spy on you? Are you some kind of a celebrity? Even if you were; would you just appear at a club without any disguise? I wonder what's there to spy on except your beauty." Diana said, as if trying to cover up her earlier statement, which in fact wasn't the case. She's trying to make him less suspicious about her.

Fair enough, Wilson also felt like Diana was right, he's not the type who publicise himself, so only a few people knows him. And also, even if she wanted to spy, he wouldn't talk anyway.

But, "how did you know my name?" He started with that. "Also, what pain and loneliness are you talking about?" He added.

He came to the VIP room  to have a taste of Diana, but everything has changed within a few minutes.

"I will be honest with you. This might sound ridiculous to your ear though." Diana said.

"Try me." Wilson said.

"I came here a few weeks ago to submit my resume and saw you. I recalled your name but couldn't recall where I've seen you before, I'm not lying about that. But your expression then broke my heart. The face in my memory is different from the one I saw that day.

You look so broken and it kind of brought up the emotions I've been trying to bury deep inside my heart.

I wasn't sure if they were gonna accept me here, because most of the people I work for always chase me away at the end…."

"And why is that?" Wilson asked as she saw in Diana's eyes that she meant those words and was kind of getting interested in her story, as she has touched the word sadness, which is what he's trying to take his mind off.

Diana reach out her left hand, and Wilson noticed the assumed wrist watch was actually a small case, glued to the band that went round her arm.

Diana opened it and showed him the tiny needles, "I survive on this now, without this I wouldn't even be able to get this waitress job." Diana said.

Wilson face darkened, but he still composed himself.

Just like Tara taught her, Diana was studying his every expression and was taking notes in her head, the part of her story that made him react.

Seeing that surviving on needles worked; she continued, "I had a problem with cold and couldn't stand too much of it, and you know there's no working place without air conditioning now.

I have the knowledge to work with a big company, I have everything it takes and I'm confident in my abilities, but the moment my body absorbed a little bit of cold, it will start acting up, making me had some kind of attack that's seizure-like and then, just like that, I will be sacked after they helped me back on my feet.

After doing it over and over without a better result, since the illness just wouldn't leave me alone, I ended up trying my luck here since someone gave me this to needles to inject myself with and try to stay away from cold as much as possible.

I wanted to approach you then, but couldn't just do it since I can't recall where we've met before, but was really curious about you and wanted to get to tell you that, no matter what you may be going through, don't let it bring you down.

Everything happens for a reason and I believe whatever it was that happened to you was for a reason, just as mine. I just hope I find the reason as soon as possible, because it's hard, it really is." Diana, already in tears now, said the last part with a broken voice.

"Hey! calm down." Wilson said, reaching his hand to her shoulder.

"I'm sorry, I shouldn't be like this with a customer, but I couldn't help myself. I hope you wouldn't disclose this to anyone, I can't lose this job too. I just hope you will find happiness and stop looking so lost." Diana added.

Moving closer to her, not even thinking about waist at this rate, Wilson pulled her closer and hugged her. his head resting on her head.

Diana rolled her eyes inwardly. Now she understands those trainees changing of mood. "Good going." she heard Tara's voice and rolled her eyes once more.
