20XX, May 20, Monday; Konner House, My Room
I attended the Manson party last Saturday night. I think it was a party set up by Rick's parents to meet with their business associates. There were many rich old men together with their young wives and some had their children with them which these businessmen had tasked to talk to Rick.
It was obvious that Rick's parents also want him to meet and interact with this young ones, especially the girls. The party was boring for me. Like that will be a surprise.
Of course I didn't know anybody there. It was great that Rick was so attentive to me that I wasn't alone for a long time at any moment that night. After he introduced me to his parents, we talked to some of his friends.
I actually met them a few times before. Like Rick, they were also studying in XXX University so it was not that difficult to get acquianted once I started going out with Rick. However, I've only talked to them a few times since they were even in a different department than Rick.
So Rick's friends were also the sons of rich businessmen. I'll start with Brad. He was actually a son of some famous celebrity with a director. They divorced when he was still a kid, then lived his mother. The mother met some other businessmen, movie investors that later became his stepfathers so she invested on a lot of businesses until she had her own.
I'd say he's the resident playboy of the group. I often see him together with different girls and he also flirts with me even in front of Rick. He was actually in a sports scholarship in the Hockey Team. Though I heard he loves to play any sports, also loves to play with girls and cars, not necessarily in that order.
Next is Eric. Studying business too. More like Rick since they were childhood friends. Unfortunately, I actually met him only once and he was not even at the party. That was because his girlfriend was the jealous kind, even gets jealous of his friends so I haven't met her yet.
As for Stephen, he's in the arts department. Son of a famous artist actually and he was following his father's footsteps, so they say. I think he was the newest part of this circle of friends but I see him more often than either Brad or Eric.
Last is Chase. This guy I really haven't met because he was currently studying abroad. But Rick told me he was coming back this summer for vacation. Also in time for Rick's birthday by the end of this month.
Back to the party. I was listening to Rick, Brad and Stephen talking about some sports when Rick's parents called him over. It looked like a cousin of his came home drunk and they have to talk to them.
I was really bored and other girls started getting the attention of the two remaining guys with me so I excused myself to go find a powder room.
After I found one, I never thought it actually had another door to an office where the Manson's were talking so I kind of overheard what they were talking about. I was afraid they would hear me when I move to go out so I stayed in place when I heard Rick's angry voice. And... I'll admit I was curious especially since Rick had always gave an impression of an easygoing guy.
Here's the gist of what I heard.
"Now, what the f*ck have you done?!" That was my first time hearing Rick curse.
"Lower your voice, Richard."
"Mom, this bastard just don't know what he was doing and he was now asking for you to clean his mess?! Who told him to touch someone of that caliber?! This will be on the news if it wasn't settled tonight!"
"Ok, stop that you two. I'll talk to Senior Inspector Darren but I don't want this happening again, Jason. I also expect you to clean up after yourself."
"Thanks, Uncle." The slurred voice was probably that drunk cousin.
"Dad, you also have to talk to the girls parents before they go to the media. So what, you're going yo force another business to go bankrupt again?! And how do you ensure this sh*t won't do anything again?!"
"Yes, Richard. That's why I called for you. I expect you to take care of your cousin now."
"Sh*t!" This was followed by a banging sound inside but the door in the other room opened and closed normally.
I waited for all of them to get out before going back to the party and I saw that Rick was back to his normal self while talking to his friends.
