Chapter 103: Chapter 103
Dante woke up with a strong headache, he had slept through the morning, it's a good thing that, it's a Saturday. he blushed his hand on his temple, he can't believe that he drinks like mad last night, Jayden pushed the door open, he look at the naughty Dante who is awake, yet didn't take his calls.
Don't you know how to knock? Dante asked with stern voice.
You wouldn't let me in and you haven't been taking my calls, you should have this. Dante grabbed the hangover tea from him then sip on it, that is what he really need.
Why are you bugging me? Jayden look at him.
You are very funny, I am bugging you and you didn't reject my tea.
I wouldn't want you to start sulking if I don't take this from you. Dante pressed the button of the TV to change the channel, he sighed seeing the entertainment news. These annoying people. Then the news of Clyde's health condition and him coming back to town puff off. Dante sighed badly, Jayden look at Dante, he felt sorry for Dante, with the new development, Dante will definitely meet Shirley again, the health condition, will dragged Shirley home. Jayden felt sorry for his friends.
You are very silly, for now, I will want you to accompany me, to a VIP restaurant, you Know that expensive bar, they are opening a new branch right in our city, and I happened to get a free four VIP tickets, which means I could bring three other person, having free drinks and food, and I am bringing, you, Sally and Kathleen.
"I will have to skip this one, Jayden, I am really not in the mood of going out" Dante replied as he rifled his hair back in frustration, Jayden look at him, he could see his worried face, and he look affected with the news on the TV and he might had seem something last night, that is the reason he was drunk.
Come on bro, are you sure, you have move on, you really are affected with the mere fact that Sir Clyde is coming back and every tendency that, she too will return and mother had made it clear two years back that he is returning.
You should stop talking rubbish, she is in my passed and I am not affected with her present, even if she show up.
What if she is the one to join your company not her dad, since the old man, can't do anything that affect the brain?
Stop it, you know I hate publicity, the bar is not my thing, let's just do it here, I will let Kathleen join you here, you could get drunk or even kiss Kathleen, I am not going to tease you.
Dante is trying to make the tension lighter by teasing him. Jayden tap his shoulder as he stand.
I will leave the card here, should in case you change your mind, you can join us, I and Sally will go ahead, we have to pick Kathleen, make sure to come with the card, they would allow you inside. Jayden exit his room through the door, Dante move his eyes to the VIP tickets.
Maybe, I could join them and distract myself Abit, a little loud music and dancing will give me peace of mind, having a social life will not be all bad.
He sighed again, as the figure of last night keep playing on his head, there is no way, anyone could convince him that, the lady he saw last night is not Shirley, she is already back in town, he want to see her, they need to talk, not that he still love her but the truth is, he demand an explanation to be able to forgo those hate in his heart and move on. When she left, he left him with a hole in his heart that he need to heal, he is devastated, he need to find his life back.
***
Come Barbara, you should get dressed, you wouldn't want us to be late. Gordon is forcing Barbara to go to the bar with him, Kathleen had informed him that, they are going to the opening of the most expensive bar and she is sure Dante is coming, he wants Barbara to go as well, that he make sure to get tickets for himself, Jeffrey and Barbara, if Jeffrey is there, he is going to stir more jealous in that vein of Dante.
Fine, I don't know since when you start patronizing these bar.
Up! Up! Barbara signed, she had no choice than to go dress up, Gordon will not let her rest, if she keeps insisting that she is not going.

Mike jaw drop, seeing the gorgeous Barbara, walking beside Gordon towards them.
Hey you, you should close your mouth, you wouldn't want sir Gordon to notice you have eyes on her? James scold Mike that is younger than him.
Jeez! I am not doing anything wrong, I am only admiring the lovely creature of God, even a statue will drool on her, wearing such revealing outfit, will definitely attract eyes, if she doesn't want the limelight then she should avoid this kind of wear, I wonder how the men around her survive without pouncing on her.
Getting closer, Gordon elbow her, pouting his lips towards Mike.
You see your clothing had send that man into wonderland.
Who said so?
Let me asked him.
What?
Relax! He walked closer and touch Mike shoulder.
Sir! Mike bow.
Hey relax, how do my princess look? James look at Gordon then move his gaze back to the naughty Mike, the man is a cold man, not even Lucia could make him smile or crack joke, now Barbara is here, he smiled often and even tease them.
I am sorry sir, it will never happen again, I will not admire your fiancee again.
Stop been silly, let's go, you are free to admire her but don't come close to her. Barbara hit him slightly.
Stop it, you are scaring the young man. Hands up, shall we. Gordon pulled Barbara's hand as they make their way into the car.
Gordon wish that, this night will be different, maybe, Dante will finally confess his feelings for Barbara. He had watch Dante for long and he is aware that, the young man love Barbara wholeheartedly, he really do but what is stopping him, he try to find out, but getting information from Dante is like looking for a person that doesn't want to be found.
