Chasing Night Novel Chapter 122: Aquarium Date With Him

Chapter 122: Aquarium Date With Him

"Do you really have to go on that date?" Kenji asked the mont I got in the car. He’s tasked to bring

to the train station where I’ll et El. "It’s not like you really wanted to go on a date after an exhausting day, milady." He added.

It looks like he’s aware that I only agreed because of the spur of the mont, but I can’t back out now.

"I already promised El before." I looked at my phone to see the ti. "I don’t break promises. Would you please start the car now? I’m going to be late."

Even though Kenji was reluctant, he still started driving towards the train station. "How do you know that you can trust El?" He asked. How will I know? Actually, I don’t know.

"El seems like he’s genuine with . He shows

how he feels and is kind towards ."

"Not everyone kind to the lady is soone you can trust." I know that. But if I keep doubting everyone, who will be left by my side? Now that Kenji ntions this to , how am I going to stop overthinking?

What if I started thinking about El’s motives but he’s just really genuine about liking ? It’s like trampling on soone’s innocent feelings because I can’t trust anyone anymore.

"I’m only reminding the lady to be careful. Kaoru will be following you guys around, and I think the young master will also do it."

I sighed. I’m aware that Night doesn’t like this date to happen, he even tried to sabotage my things so that I wouldn’t be able to leave.

’The things he does sotis are absurd.’ I shook my head.

"I already inford El that Kaoru will follow us around, and he doesn’t mind it."

"Well, he’s understanding," Kenji said. I don’t know if that was out of sarcasm or anything like that, but I didn’t bother asking.

I should stop doubting people who are being kind to . Sotis, so people are just really kind. But in the back of my head, the fear of being betrayed keeps repeating how many suspicions I have for El.

What if he really does want to gain sothing from ? What if he’s planning to hurt ? When I fall for him, what if he ditches

for soone else? All those things keep lingering inside my head that I didn’t even notice we already arrived in front of the train station.

"Don’t worry, milady. You’re going to be protected." Kenji said as I get off the car.

’I already know that.’

Grandpa Kenta let

go thinking that I’ll be going with my friend since I didn’t tell him that it was a guy. Although I think it’ll still be fine for him since he doesn’t care if Night and I have actual feelings for each other.

Grandpa Kenta allowed

to go with the condition of bringing bodyguards along my side. Although they’re probably using disguises, I know they’re following

around. I can feel it.

These days, I’ve been training with Night and I’ve learned how to defend myself even for a little. Night’s been strict because he’s also a little mad at . His moods are so annoying, and I don’t want to beg for him to get along with .

’As I said, he’s the one telling

that he likes

so why am I going to chase after him?’

"Ellie!" I saw a man wearing black shades and a cool short sleeves light blue shirt. "You ca." He said as I reached him.

El’s wearing casual clothes but he’s still getting the attention of the people that pass by. It must be because of how good-looking he is. People might still look his way even if he’s wearing nothing but a trash bag.

’No, that will make people look because it’s weird for a person to wear a trash bag. What am I thinking?’

"You look great in that outfit." El complinted . I’m only wearing a high waist baggy pants with a crop top since the weather’s really hot today.

Also, Night hated it when I was about to wear a dress or a skirt thinking that I’m getting all dolled up just for El.

"Shall we go?" He leads the way to the train station.

"Do you know how to ride trains?" I shook my head making El pinch my cheek out of nowhere. "You’re an adorable young lady." He said with a huge smile on his face.

We boarded the train and there are lots of people inside making us stand near the wall. "I’m sorry, it’s too cramped in here," El said since he was almost pinning

to the wall, protecting

from other people.

I only smiled. "It’s fine." It’s Saturday, so maybe that’s why people are going out. El was getting closer and closer to , and I know he was trying his best for other people not to bump into . It’s still 12 NN but there are already lots of people here.

"Do you love aquariums?" El asked the mont we got off the train.

Should I be honest with him?

"I do love seeing animals, but I hate seeing dolphins in captive," I said.

"Whoa, I didn’t expect us to have sothing in common." I looked at El after he said that. We walked towards the aquarium while I still look at him. "I hate it when animals are held captive so I’m not really fond of zoos. Taking soone’s freedom, it’s what I hate the most."

The way he said that was weird. It’s as if... his freedom was taken away by soone.

"Then why did you bring

here?"

El smiled as he removed his glasses. "It’s because girls love the aquarium." I frowned after hearing that. "And don’t you like swimming? So I thought you were friends with aquatic animals because you’re a rmaid."

I scoffed at hearing that. "Do I look like a rmaid to you?"

El nodded lots of tis. "If you’re not a rmaid, then why do you look so pretty?" All eyes went to El after he said that.

The girls around us were blushing due to shyness and so do I. ’How could these guys say such cringe things?’ I could only shake my head in disagreent.

"Shall we go inside? I got two free tickets." He showed

the tickets like an excited child.

When we entered the aquarium, there are lots of children everywhere. Must be because it’s a family day every Saturday.

"Where should we go first?"

The children were rushing sowhere making

feel curious. "Where are they all going?"

"Oh, I think the dolphin show’s starting. Do you want to watch?" El asked and I was curious so I agreed.

The two of us walked towards the dolphin show and the children were sitting on the bleachers right in front of the pool. Are they sure they want to sit there?

"Let’s just sit here," I told El as we stayed on the farthest seats since I know we might get splashed by water.

"Are you sure it’s okay for you to watch?" El asked as he holds my hand.

"It’s fine." Even though I feel bad for the dolphins, I can’t do anything for them. At least, at this mont.

The dolphin show started and the trainer was really gentle with the dolphins. One of the dolphins doesn’t even listen to the trainer and just kept on enjoying itself.

"He looks like he’s having fun." I couldn’t stop myself from saying that with a smile.

Maybe because it was a different aquarium, but before, when I was younger I saw a trainer that treats the animals badly. It caused

to fear going to zoos and aquariums like this, but I guess not everyone is the sa.

"This place doesn’t look that bad."

"I’m glad you think so too," El said. "My friend said that this place takes care of dolphins that can’t live in the wild. They help them recover and if they could still survive in the wild, they set them free." He has lots of knowledge about this place huh?

"Like a sanctuary."

"That’s right. The dolphins that are performing are those who can’t live in the wild anymore." El added.

After the dolphin show, we road the whole aquarium and I didn’t expect to be enjoying it so well that I almost didn’t want to go ho anymore.

"This is so fun," I said as I smiled at El. It’s already nearing sunset but we’re still staying inside. I think it’s because there will be the last performance in the biggest aquarium where there are rmaids too.

"I’ll go to the souvenir store first," El said so I stayed on the bench and waited for him.

The sounds of the children’s voices perated my ears and I couldn’t stop myself from smiling. They’re all so innocent and cute that I can’t help but watch them have fun. Was I like that when I was younger?

"Shhh! Go away or else she’ll notice." I quickly looked behind

after hearing familiar voices. My forehead creased when I didn’t see anything behind.

’I’m sure that was Kenji’s voice.’ I thought as I sighed. I didn’t expect all of them to follow .

I sighed as I stood up, when I was about to go to the booth behind the bench, so children bumped into

making

fall to the ground.

"I-I’m sorry." The child that bumped into

quickly apologized so I smiled and let it go.

"Are you okay?" I looked up.
