บท 282: My better half

The three hours earlier at the mall,

After hanging up the call with Aarvi, Aaron grabbed their drinks and stood unbothered about the gazes on him looking towards the elevator and the escalator. 

He was absolutely sure that as soon as she entered the floor, she would search for him so he stood in a clearly visible place.

It wasn't even two minutes, he noticed little Lara entering the escalator with her parents. She was the same little four-year-old girl who used to play with Aarvi when they were staying in the lakefront villa.

They were just neighbors and her parents were always busy with the work so they never exchanged numbers. Hence after all the residents moved out of the regency during floods, they lost contact.

Aaron thought Aarvi would love to meet the little one before the movie as he watched Lara excited about standing on her own on the steps of the escalator while her parents kept their eye on her as they probably discussed their business.
