Chapter 8: Chapter 8

“Of course... Not! Why would I like that woman? She’s cheap, they’re so many girls out there that is-- “

“Okay.” Tsk! He didn’t even let me finish what I was going to say!

“Wait, I’m still asking Mr. F**kboy!” John’s smile now is like a demon.

“Is she good, huh? Does she taste like heaven?” He asked. I took a glass of water and drank it.

“You are crazy John, what kind of question is that!”

“What? You’re just going to answer, yes or yes... you don’t have a choice because yes only in the choices so, she tastes good-- “I glared at him.

“Stop talking nonsense!” I said and shook my head.

“Okay, let me ask you this question, then. Who tastes good, me or Alyana?”

“Alyana of course!” My answer is straightforward. He’s crazy, I’m not gay, so how would I know that he tastes good or what!?

“So, you also admitted that Alyana is yummy.” Flyn just laughed at John.

“It looks like I want to taste her too because Stephen himself said that Alyana taste goo--” I tightened held my spoon and looked at John sharply.

“Oww, relax! I’m just kidding Mr. Stephen the f**kboy.” I tried to calm myself down.

I took a deep breath before I spoke. “Right! Help me find out where she lives.” I said and didn’t look at them.

I forgot to call them last night for help. Maybe they’re busy at that time, that’s why.

“Don’t say that you only know her name,” John muttered.

“I know her last name too.”

“Woah, she introduced herself before you f**k her,” John said, laughing. I want to punch him right now. I’m pissed, but he’s still my friend, after all, so let’s just bear it.

“She didn’t introduce himself, I just saw her name on her ID."

“Oh, so she’s a student? And she’s wearing her ID while you pfft...”

“She’s not wearing her ID, fool!” I was shaken.

“Then where did you see her ID?”

“In her sling bag,” I replied. I was surprised when they both laughed.

“We didn’t know you were interested in other things, Stephen,” he said and poke my shoulder.

“Okay, I am going to tell you what exactly happens. I was d-driving on the road-- “

“Yeah, we know that you’re driving on the road--” I glared at him. “Oops, I’ll be quiet.”

“I was going to the hotel, but then I saw her on the road. She was dragged by a woman that is already in 40+. I just ignored that, but I can’t really forget her...”

“Yieeeee!”

“Shut up John, I am not done yet talking!”

I just kept talking and told them everything.

“So, who owns that woman first?”

“Not really. I haven’t even paid the old woman yet! I forgot to call both of you to ask for help.”

“You forgot because you are having fun with that woman-- oh, Flyn give me some water, I’m thirsty.” he changes the topic when he notices that I held the fork chop tightly, lifted it, and slammed it hard on the table.

“Pfft, just continue what you are saying early, John.” Flyn can’t stop laughing.

“I’m really thirsty... Wait, don’t tell me we’re the one who’s going to send to payment? Me and Flyn are going there just to give the payment, huh?”

He gets what I meant, I’m so damn happy! I thought I still need to explain to him so that he’ll get what I was talking about. He is kinda slow sometimes, but only sometimes.

“Wow! Thank you because you have a brain, John.” I patted his back at the same time.

“What the hell? We’re your friend Stephen, not your assistant or a maid-- “

“I’ll give you 2 million,” I said and drank some water.

“Where’s that bar again?” I simply shook my head and laugh. When it comes to money, John is in it. He’s rich, but I don’t know why he acts like he doesn’t have money. I mean, he doesn’t spend his money that much, but when it comes to his two siblings, they spend 1 million a day or even more.

“We’re going together, aren’t we? What about my payment, my friend, huh?” Flyn put his hand on my shoulder.

“Just split it up,”

“One million for me and him?” he pointed John at the same time.

They both look at me. What the, isn’t that enough? Yeah, of course, it’s not.

“Too mall, I forgot that I still need to go somewhere, I don’t have enough time to-- “

“Okay fine, I’ll give you 2 million, both of you and when you got there, it’s up to you how you talk to that old woman. If she doesn’t want to, then just cut her neck.”

I turn my gaze to John. “Not like that, bro. We should just her buried alive, so she doesn’t get hurt.”

“It still hurts. We should just throw her into a river.” They both laughed, they really crazy sometimes.

I just laugh too but then suddenly John spoke, and that made my expression serious.

“Hey, bro! Do you have a picture of Alyana?"

“I... don’t have any.” At the same time, I averted my eyes.

There was really nothing! Why would I have a picture of that woman on my phone?!

Is she special or important to me? Of course, she will never be! She’s too common and... Damn! Nevermind.

“I think it’s your first time stuttering, Mr. Wilson. Hey, nanny Daley is here!” John pointed at my side and I turned around.

I scratch my shoulder. “Damn, there’s no one there, John!” I said, looking around at them at the same time.

My eyes widened when I saw that they were already holding my phone.

“Just lend me this finger for a second. I need your fingerprint.” I couldn’t stop him because he immediately pulled my index finger.

“Oh, what the! There she is...woah, not that bad.” I looked at him badly. I want to choke him now!

“Stephen, you know how to lie to us now, huh!” He keeps teasing me.

“Shut up! Give me that!” I said in a serious tone and took my cellphone back.

“But you know what, she’s kinda familiar... It’s like I’ve seen her face before...” I slowly turned my gaze to Flyn.

“Right! I remember now, I already saw her before. She’s my Xenon’s best friend. He introduced me to that woman when we accidentally met at the mall.”

Xenon is Flyn’s brother. I know him, but we are not close. I know he doesn’t like me hanging out with Flyn and fyi I don’t like him too. I hate it when he acts like a gentleman and concerns girls, tsk what trash! Why do girls in that school like him, anyway? Because he’s kinda handsome and nice? That’s it, tsk!

“Then she must be the same age as us-- “

“No, Alyana is in college. She must be 24 years old.”

“Oh, Stephen, you heard that you’re only two years apart. That’s okay, right?” why does he doesn’t stop teasing me!

I looked at John badly. “Do you want me to cut your tongue?”

“I’m just kidding, bro.” He said and even peace sign to me.

“Where is she studying? Is she busy today? Does she have a class right now?”

Flyn smiled..

“Don’t just smile Flyn, answer my question.”

I was surprised when John held my both cheeks and forced my face to look at him. “Are you going to her school? Bro, wake up! Don’t you have any work? Have you forgotten that you are not just a f**kboy but also a CEO.” John reminds me.

“I already called my secretary to handle everything.”

“I feel bad for your secretary, Stephen. I would immediately resign if you are going to be my boss because it’s nice to be just your friend.”

“Damn, stop it, John!” I tried to push him away, but he hugged me tighter, and also Flyn hug me too, so I can’t move now.

_

Flyn told me where she was studying.

I’m here in the parking lot, waiting for Alyana to pass by, just in case I see her now. I don’t think she will be absent today; I guess.

Flyn told me that Alyana is not the type of person that will never be absent for no reason. So, I guess she has no reason to be absent today.

Some students that are passing by keep looking at me and girls when they passed by, wink or bite their lower lip while looking at me.

I am used to it though but I am not used if a gay did that, that’s honestly disgusting. I don’t punch gays as long as they don’t do disgusting when I am around them.

My forehead wrinkled when I saw her with another man... Wait, that’s Xenon. He is Flyn’s brother. I mean stepbrother, to be exact.

I remember Flyn saying earlier that Xenon and Alyana were best friends.

Suddenly my head heats up. That’s where it all starts, right? Strangers at first, after knowing each other than become friends and friends, turn into in relationship!

I hurriedly walked to where they were. Alyana was about to get in Xenon’s car, but I immediately pulled her hand.

His eyes widened to see me. Do I look like an alien to surprise her like that? A handsome face like this can be mistaken as an angel... angel f**kboy.

“Stephen? What are you doing here?” He asked, confused, turning his gaze to my hand holding Alyana’s hand.

“Can you let go of my best friend’s hand?!” he sounds irritated and even clenched his fist while still looking at my hand.

I knew it. He was obvious! He likes Alyana, I can feel it! Damn! Then I should tell her to stay away from this man.

“No, we need to go somewhere,” I said seriously, and he looked at me seriously.

“Where? Just the two of you, Alyana. Do you know Stephen?”

“Ahh, uhm yes!”

“You two are friends? Why didn’t you mention anything to me?” he looks disappointed.

“H-He’s not my friend...” Alyana looked at me.

Why does she seem to be afraid of me? It’s not like I am going to eat her alive. Do I look like a monster? I don’t eat people, maybe pussy--

I was just shaken by what I was thinking.

“Yeah, we’re not friends!” I agreed with what Alyana said.

I added. “Because she is my girlfriend.” I pressed her waist closer to me at the same time.
