"Erwin ? " Zen murmured and turned back . "It is you !"
"Hey there ! Long time no see buddy " He waved at him with a smile .
"After so many years! Glad to see you again ." They share a friendly hug . Erwin was of the same height as Zen . Bright jet black eyes and black silky hair falling onto his shoulders . He was fair and handsome almost the same age as Zen . His dress was formal Dark blue pants and Olive green Shirt .
"So how do I look ? Say there is no one handsome than me is there ? "
"You look perfect nothings changed about you except that your hair have grown what's that? a new style? "
"Yeah you can say that but I'll cut them short if you say . You have always been my critic " He grinned .Erwin was very concerned of his looks and very stylish . He always wanted to look cool and would always rely on Zen's opinion . They slap each others palms and bump fists something they did whenever they met . Alisha blinked at their sudden gesture .
"They must be really close " She said to herself .
"Oh yes meet Alisha . Alisha this is Erwin king of Edolas I know he doesn't look like one but he is . "
"Oh ... Ohhhh .. you are ..I see... I'm sorry I didn't notice you . I have heard a lot about you . It's indeed my pleasure to meet you My lady " He slightly bows as she blushes .
"Nice meeting you too . " She smiled .
"Well let's go to my work room and talk there I do have a lot of stuff to tell you "
"I'm here to listen . Well then My lady see you later."
Neil takes care to arrange a room for Erwin and his bodyguards . His stuff were shifted in his room .
"Neil make sure Alisha attends her classes properly "
"Yes Sir !"
Showing off in front of his friend how annoying !! Alisha goes back to he room with a pout on her face. Erwin turned to Zen to fulfill his curiosity .
"I know your eyes are extraordinary but hey ! Where in the world did you find her? " He asks walking along with him .
"Lauderdale. .nowhere special ."
"Ah does that mean I'll find someone like her if I visit lauderdale ? I never knew there are pretty girls like her "
"Haha ... I doubt you will find someone like her . She is a rarity! I'm glad you like her. I would doubt my decision if you disliked her "
"What ? Come on ! Look at your face it tells me how much YOU like her there is no way you would leave her by your side " Zen turned red at his statement .
"N... no way it's nothing like that !"
"Yes way it's all making sense to me now You haven't changed a bit but there is a slight change in the way you speak now "
"What rubbish I don't believe you . There is nothing different about me " They kept walking .
"That won't change anything you know ! Now you are more friendly and soft may be atleast you look at me when you talk I'm so glad I don't feel like a stranger anymore "
"What are you talking about ? You aren't making any sense anyways wish you came a little earlier you might as well had met Zenia "
"Ah so she was here ! Oh yes yes that girl had a crush on you so didn't she have any issues with My lady ?"
"You know about it ? Well don't ask me what happened I had tough time dealing with things.... anyways I'm glad everything is normal now but I do feel bad for her " He let's out a sigh as Erwin laughs .
"Well you should be. She was head over heels for you since the start it was bound to happen. Still I don't think things will get better this soon... You know what I mean "
"Well .... Not like I can avoid it. Good or bad I have to face it "
Erwin just smiled at him and continued to walk. They reminisce their childhood days and talk about their ongoing lives . Ofcourse he forced Zen to narrate the story of how he met Alisha .
