Five hours later...
'Prove that you're not the same as everyone...' Matthew Xi recalled her words earlier. However, what was currently going on now was Zoey partying her heart out.
Along with the loud bass and annoying music, causing her heart to involuntarily thump with the beat, Zoey downed her 5th glass of her tequila. On the other hand, Matthew Xi just watched her grin from ear to ear, while they perched at the bar counter.
The noise of the music and clamoring of equally sleek men and women defeated his voice, "Hey."
"Darling, algae will soon grow on your glass l if you don't drink it." Zoey shouted, pointing at his drink that he hadn't touched yet.
Matthew Xi, who hated shouting, maintained his poker face since she wouldn't hear him, anyway. His eyes were enough to speak for his mind.
