Dragon Loves Me

Ivy looked at the building in front of her which seemed like a restaurant. There is a board hung on the wall with the name "Blue Plate" written in beautiful calligraphy and beside the name there is a fork and spoon drawn.

Allora took Ivy inside of Blue Plate to have their breakfast and the place is decorated with light colours and few paintings are hung on the walls. Outside of this place it is noisy but inside it is peaceful. Ivy's mood greatly improved after seeing this place.

Soon a person who seems to be the owner of this place came to invite them.

"Welcome Madam. It's been a long time. It's pleasant to have you here." The person greeted Allora politely.

"Yes, it is. I am good. Hope you and your family are doing well Thomas" Allora replied with a smile.

"Due to the Lord's grace. We all are good Madam. I got information from the Lord that you are visiting today. I made all the preparations, please follow me" He stated and he looked at Ivy who was observing the decorations..

"Madam. Is it young madam?" Thomas inquired.

Allora smiled and said "Yes. My daughter Aivyn."

She turned towards Ivy and said "Aivyn this is Thomas, the owner of this Blue Plate."

"Nice to meet you Mr Thomas. Your restaurant is beautiful" Ivy complimented.

Thomas' face bloomed with a smile and said "Thank you young madam. We are glad that it is to your liking. Please come with me and I will show you your room."

"Mom, Shall we eat here only. I want to sit at the window" Ivy asked Allora.

Thomas was perplexed by her sudden request. He attended many young ladies who are below the Daltons but they all act haughty as they own this place but here Ivy being daughter of Dalton's she is acting humble.

He saw few people who are displeased to sit along with others and requested private rooms. But here she is asking to dine with others. Thomas was impressed by her personality.

Ivy, who is not aware of Thomas' thoughts, inquired "Is it fine Mr Thomas. I want to enjoy the view"

Thomas came out of his thoughts and said "Yes, yes. It's fine. Young Madam"

Allora didn't say anything and obliged to her daughter's request. She didn't mind about where to sit if it was with her daughter.

After getting their orders Thomas went to send the items to them and mother daughter is chatting happily.

"Mother, do you perhaps know any item called Ice Cream, Chocolates, Cakes?" Ivy started her inquiry.

Allora seemed confused by hearing the strange words and replied "No dear, what are those? Did you read about them?"

"Yes mother. I thought maybe they are available here in the capital city." Ivy said and her eyes twinkled with excitement.

'It seems, they are not discovered here. So I have an option in the food industry.Not bad' Ivy thought.

"Then, how will the birthday be celebrated, mom?" Ivy asked curiously.

Allora smiled and said "We usually celebrate it by throwing a dinner party. In Magna we used to celebrate within ourselves. If we celebrate your age ceremony in our place then we plan on inviting our friends and relatives".

"Previously, you didn't seem to have any interest in these kinds of things. It seems you are thinking of these ivy" Allora added.

"Yes, mom. I am not a child anymore right. I want to be aware of these things and don't want to be left behind" Ivy said sincerely.

"Lora Aunt" a husky voice broke the conversation and both of them looked at the source of the voice.

"Cay" Lora's eyes twinkled with excitement and she stood to hug him..

"What a surprise aunt? When did you arrive?" Cay inquired while parting from the hug.

"Yesterday only. In fact it is a surprise" Allora said sweetly.

Ivy looked at the duo with confusion but gave a polite smile when he turned towards her. Ivy is mesmerized by his handsome looks.

He is six feet tall with chestnut hair, honey eyes and wearing a red shirt with white pants. His shirt pocket has some badges attached and she felt like she saw similar attire somewhere. It seems like a uniform and it fitted perfectly to his sculpted body, he looks like a model that came out from the magazine.

"Are you Ivy?" Cay inquired with a surprised look.

Ivy raised her brow when called her intimately and looked at him with a frown.

'Did Ivy know him? But how come I didn't recognize his face? Generally when i see their faces Ivy memory will be clear to her on that person. But he is not in her memories' Ivy thinking in her mind.

"Don't you remember me? I am cay, Cayden" Cayden asked with excitement while joining them on the table.

Ivy brows creased with confusion and tried to recall his name. Allora looked at Ivy who was thinking very hard and tried to help her.

"Cay, it's been years, She didn't remember." Allora tried to help her daughter out of this situation.

"Ivy, He is Cayden. He used to come to our place when you were a kid." Allora explained to her.

Ivy smiled and nodded her head. But she didn't recall anything about this person through Ivy memories.

"Hello, Cayden. Nice meeting you" Ivy said politely.

Before Cayden replied, food had arrived and served them on the table. The waiter left them to have their breakfast.

"Is anyone joining with you aunt?" Cayden inquired.

Allora looked surprised by his question but replied "No, we only. Why? Is there any problem?"

"Oh. Are you sure you both can handle this amount of food?" Cayden probed.

Ivy didn't sit well with his questions and thought 'From where did this dummy appear? Does he know what he is saying is making others uncomfortable?'

Allora's smile stiffened, before she replied Ivy cut her "Excuse me. Do you have any problems? And there are 3 main dishes and 2 side dishes. Why are you making a scene?"

Cayden taken back by her sudden questions but still he replied "What I am expecting is, you guys didn't ask me to join. So I am giving you an hint"

Ivy looked at him like a fool and Allora replied this time "Cay, you are welcome to sit and dine with us. I am going to invite you but your question caught me off guard. Please feel free to order anything you desire"

'Who will ask like this? Is he really okay?' "Dummy" Ivy murmured under her breath.

"Did you say anything Ivy?" Cayden inquired.

"No, but please call me Aivyn. We are not close enough to call each other by nicknames" Ivy said with a straight face.

"Ivy" Allora tried to comfort her daughter.

"We are close too, you forgot that Ivy. No problem, you can take your time to call me Cay. I don't have any issues, ``Cayden said while stuffing bread into his mouth.

Ivy "...."

Ivy didn't mind him and started having her breakfast.. There is more they need to do and she doesn't want to waste her energy on him.
