Seeing my complacent look, Aaron suddenly lowered his head and chuckled.
“No problem.” She even symbolically clapped her hands and then picked up her coat. “I’ll take you back.”
I had intended to proudly say no to him, but he didn’t give me the chance.
Sitting in the passenger seat, I looked at the snowy scenery outside the car window and listened to lively music. There weren’t many people on the street at this time, but there were still some rushing pedestrians.
Suddenly, a young woman on the left side of the road quickened her pace and rushed forward.
I looked in the direction of her gaze and saw a handsome young man her age galloping towards her with a beautiful bouquet in hand.
The next moment, under the flying snow, the two hugged each other tightly and kissed.
“What a happy scene!” Aaron noticed it too.
I looked away silently.
Then suddenly I realized that this Porsche was only driving at a speed of 10 mph!
“Oh, I didn’t realize it until you reminded me,” Aaron responded in a pompous and perfunctory manner.
Then it still maintained its slow speed.
I finally realized what his plan was, “Really? Are you going to push the time back to midnight like this?”
“Oops, you found out.” Aaron still had that over-the-top, superficial attitude.
“You’re a child?” I was speechless: “You better think clearly. Even if you use this method to delay until midnight, I only agreed to spend Christmas with you, not to obey. In other words, my bedtime is free.”
“And you said you didn’t want to say anything else.” Aaron laughed.
I was so angry, but I couldn’t verbally beat him. So I turned my head and looked out the window, keeping quiet.
The car was still moving at such a slow speed. The original 20-minute ride took him an hour!
When the car stopped at the hotel entrance, it was exactly midnight.
I unbuckled my seatbelt and got out of the car quickly.
Before closing the car door, I crouched down to look at Aaron in the driver’s seat and said with a provocative smile on my face, “I’m going to bed, bye.”
With that, I quickly closed the car door and turned to leave.
“Olive.” Aaron called me from behind: “I’ll give you ten minutes.”
I stopped and turned to see what he was doing again.
I saw him leaning on the car window with a smile and winking at me: “Take your luggage and leave in ten minutes.”
“What are you trying to do again? I said I’m going to sleep.”
“You can sleep on the way. Hurry up”. Aaron urged with a smile, “I’ll take you back to Manhattan, where the bed is more comfortable.”
“Am I crazy or are you crazy?” She couldn’t believe what she was hearing.
“You can sleep in the car, or in Manhattan, for as long as you want.” Aaron insisted again: “You still have nine minutes left.”
I was tempted to ask him what he would do if time ran out, but my gut told me the answer would never be something I wanted to hear.
“Are you sick”. I cursed under my breath, turned and went back into the hotel.
When I got to my hotel room, I looked at the barely opened suitcase, wondering whether to listen to the man below.
Anyway, if I went to sleep now, would he knock on the doors one by one in the hotel to find me?
But on second thought, he had done me a great favor after all. Besides, if the Aaron I knew would do what he said he would.
Therefore, nine minutes later, I ran out of the room.
Walking out the hotel door, I saw Aaron standing outside the car, waiting for me by the car door.
