Chapter 7 - Chapter 5

"Where are we, exactly?" I asked when the vehicle stop.

"We're in the lake, already." He retorts and climbs out of the cab.

After he pays our fare we both walk onto the lake. As we stop, I scan the whole place and it seems like good than what I think.

As my sight run to the whole lake. I saw my cousin waving his hand in the air. My brows creased and I shoot my glare directly to the root. The knit of my brows simultaneously gone when I saw a man walking towards us.

As our eyes meet I feel like my heart pound for a second. Especially when he slowly runs his fingers through his dark brown hair. Even the way he pulls his hand from his hair and shoves it inside to his jeans pocket was literally made me struck.

"What's up, man?" Jadster greeted him and they're shoulder bumped.

"I'm okay, man. I just got to arrive. I feel tired really." He shifts his sight to my direction.

"Who is this pretty angel?" He bobs his head to me.

I looked away when his stare became thick than the first one. This is wrong. You're here to work not to put your ass into a stranger, Lana.

"Oh! I almost forgot." Jadster's palm snaps into his forehead.

"It's okay." He says to Jadster and walks towards me.

"Her name is Liana." Jadster added.

I try to step backward but he is too fast. Knowing he is a six-footer man, I think. His sight runs over my body and the way he licks his lips made my forehead sweat.

"Don't be scared. I just want to introduce myself to you miss." He winks and I looked away for a little bit and back again to face him.

"I heard your name from Jadster. So, I think there's no more than enough reason to introduce yourself." I gibe and his brows shut up in surprise.

"Boom!" Jadster teased him.

He lowers his head and smirks appears. He brings back his head to face me. His lips curves while his green eyes bore to mine.

"You know what miss? I just want to befriend you. I'm not a villain or what is inside your brain to call me."

I know he'll not doing great to me. Those actions were literally performed by a playboy. But, I notice he hasn't any piercing on his body including a ring on his ear.

Why is he so good to be seen?

"I know." I jerk my head away from him.

He smirks. "You don't be mean to me miss. I will not do anything for you. I just want to know you well. That's all."

Know me? Really? For what? For making me fool? I already knew what was the reason why a man wants to know better to a girl because he wants to know where and when to attack.

"Then, my bad. I am not capable of making friends to anyone who I haven't know yet, especially to a stranger." I snap and he scoffs.

"Oww... that was harsh. But I can't blame you, miss. But trust me, I'm good." He smiles.
