"But-but…"

"Sstttttt.." Francisco put his index finger in front of Aphrodite's lips, stopping the sentence that was about to pop out of her lips.

"I don't want to hear the word but. All I want to hear from you is the word 'yes, I understand'," he said. Aphrodite was dumbstruck, she was silent without sound while her two beads were now deeper and deeper looking at Francisco's two eyes.

"Here you go, I don't want to talk about this anymore. It's better that we go now" Francisco said as he got up from his place. He stood before Aphrodite, holding her hand. Aphrodite then got up from her seat.

Francisco led Aphrodite out of the airport by dragging two suitcases in his hands. Once they arrive outside the airport, they then start busy by waiting for the arrival of a car that will pick them up at the airport.

DRRTTT... DRRTTT...

Francisco's cell phone suddenly rang, making his focus immediately seized by the sound of objects now stored behind a warm jacket worn by him.

"In a moment" murmured Francisco who then reached into his jacket pocket. Staring at the screen of his phone that is now on shows a series of unnamed numbers there.

"Who?" Aphrodite asked as she looked at him with a puzzled look.

"I don't know, the number's not listed on my cell phone contact."

"Try lifting up. Fear someone you know."

"Yes," said Francisco who then shifted the green button there, picking up the phone connection that automatically directly connect the phone with the caller across there.

"Bonjour monsieur, je suis la personne chargee de venir vous chercher," said someone across the street. Speaking in French. From his heavy voice, Francisco was able to conclude that the person he was talking to was a man.

(Bonjour monsieur, je suis la personne chargee de venir vous chercher./ Good morning sir, I am the one assigned to pick you up.)

"A-ah. bonjour," said Francisco slightly spaced. The man across the street spoke so much that he was a little surprised that he had just had his phone line connected, he had been assaulted by various sentences from foreign languages. Lucky when he was a child, Fanny had taught him French and lucky also he had got one of the clients from France. It made it easy to understand what the man across the street had just said.

(Bonjour— good morning in French. But it is random in the sense that it can mean ‘Halo, or Good Morning’)

"Je suis actuellement en route pour l'aerport, pouvez-vous me dire o vous dotes maintenance ? Pour que je puisse te trouver plus facilement" he said again. While Francisco was talking to someone across the street, Aphrodite looked at him with a confused look. Aphrodite was curious about what they were talking about, and she was puzzled as to why Francisco seemed so serious about listening to the caller's voice.

(Je suis actuellement en route pour l'aerport, pouvez-vous me dire o vous ? Pour que je puisse te trouver plus facility./ I am currently on my way to the airport, can you tell me where you are at the moment? So that it is easier to find the master.)

"Oh, J'ai attendu devant l'aerport. Je suis actuellement debt sur le bord de la route," said Francisco as he circulated his gaze around. The airport still seemed deserted, there were not too many people coming and going to enter the airport.

(Oh, J'ai attendu devant l'aerport. Je suis actuellement debout sur le bord de la route./ Oh, I'm in front of the airport right now. I'm standing by the side of the road.)

"Ah, uh bien, je serai la dans une minute," he answered across the street.

(Ah, uh bien, je lemongrass la dans une minute./ Ah, well, I'll be there in a few minutes.)

(Bon. J'attends/ Good. I wait)

Francisco then put the phone in his hand into the pocket of the jacket he was wearing.

"The one who just called turned out to be the one who asked my mom to pick us up here, and she said that she would be here soon. Now he's on his way" explained Francisco, turning to Aphrodite. But the water changed when he saw Aphrodite who was now staring at him, Aphrodite barely even blinked as she looked at him.

"Aphrodite? Why are you looking at me like that?" Francisco asked as he patted his shoulder slowly.

"It's okay, I'm just surprised. Your French is so fluent" Aphrodite said in a soft voice.

"Oh, I guess why you're looking at me like that. It turned out to be just that," Francisco chuckled in response to Aphrodite's words just now.

"Your mom used to teach me to learn French, so. I can speak eloquently" explained Francisco.

"A-ah, that's how it looks."

"Yes, that's how it is." said Francisco, smiling in a knot. Their focus was again on waiting for the man asked to pick them up. And it did not take long, the car they were waiting for finally arrived before them. Francisco was able to identify the car, because Fanny had explained the characteristics of the car to Francisco when they were talking on the phone.

The man driving the car got out of the car and walked over to Francisco and Aphrodite, who were standing there, waiting for him to arrive.

"Bonjour monsieur, madame" the man greeted Francisco and Aphrodite as a sign of respect.

(Bonjour monsieur, madame,/ Hello sir, mistress.)

"Bonjour" said Francisco, smiling at him as a sign of his hospitality. The man stood straight in front of him and looked at him.

"My name is Adrien. I was the one who Madame Fanny trusted to pick up the ladies and gentlemen" she introduced herself in French.

"His name is Adrien, he's the one you asked to pick us up here" Francisco translated what Adrien had just said.

"O-oh, nice to meet you," Aphrodite bowed her body.

Adrien was stunned, he looked at Aphrodite with a confused look on his face while Francisco, who heard him, could only smile in response to Aphrodite's efforts to communicate with the man.

"Ma femme ne comprend pas le francais," explained Francisco to Adrien, trying to give understanding to him.

(Ma femme ne comprend pas le francais/My wife does not understand French.)

"Oh, je vois." muttered Adrien in response while nodding his head. He turned to Aphrodite.

(Oh, je vois./ Oh, so.).
