Together Forever
Chapter 6
......
"Hello, Evie?"
"Yeah."
"Where are you now? When is he coming?"
"I am in my car. He will be happy if I pick him up from the airport. So I am on my way. Why, Lee? Can't wait to see my handsome friend?"
"I am not a bit interested. I was just asking." She tries to defend herself.
"Hmm... I trust you."
"Stop mocking me and focus on driving. Bye."
"Bye. Your 'soon to be boyfriend' is coming." I chuckle and hear a growl from the other side.
I am going to pick up my friend, Nick. He is my other best friend. He is 2 years older than me, lives in Los Angeles, handling their family business. His father and my father are best buddies from the time they were teenagers. And now we are.
His naughtiness has no boundaries. From childhood, he has been making my life hell. Even though he's so naughty and he puts me in so many troubles like dying my hair blue, pouring pink color on my white dress, and so on, I love him. He is someone one can not but love.
He has had a huge crush on Leah since he was a teenager but for the fear of rejection, he is still away from her flirting with other girls. Poor guy!
But I don't think Leah doesn't like him. She is just trying to hide her feelings I can feel that by her reaction whenever I talk about Nick. I asked her many times, every time she just ignored me. I just can't get it if they really like each other, what is the need to act like heartbroken Romeo and Juliet? Can't they just confess their feelings?
But now there is a chance. Nick is not going to stop his torments on me so quickly that means he's here for some days. Maybe they will confess this time otherwise I will burst the bubbles myself. Yeah.
I reach the airport and park my car in a quiet place. I don't want to draw any attention at least now. Getting out of the car, I look around and lean against it, shoving my hands into the pockets of my jeans. He hasn't reached yet. Let's wait then.
My phone rings in my purse again. I open the purse and take out the phone. A smile creeps upon my lips looking at the caller ID. Yesterday in the meeting, the flirty guy changed into the full professional again. I wonder how many concealments he has.
I receive the call and he speaks up,
"Where are you? You are not in your office because I called Cathie and she said you left a while ago." He asks in a demanding voice.
"Who are you? My husband?" I think to myself as I mentally roll my eyes.
"Why? Is there any need?" I ask.
"Yeah. I need you to come to my office."
