"Miss Alexandria, these are the reports you are asking for from HR" said her secretary and handed over a brown folder.
"Thanks Jessa, you can go now." she said.
Her secretary nodded and said goodbye, "Be careful Miss. Have a goodnight."
It has been a long day but she's still working her ass out. She had nothing else to look forward to but her own. She has her parents but they are separated and have their own new families.
She took a deep breath and looked at the time on the wall clock in front of her.
"9:48 PM" she paused and lean her back and head to her swivel chair, "I need to chill. Tequila is the best stress reliever." she's talking with her eyes closed and tired smiling lips.
After a few seconds, she opened her eyes and took the cellphone out of her bag. She needs someone to accompany her while drinking.
She dialed the first person in the list, Sofia. "Hi! This is Sofia Summer, I'm sorry I can't get to the phone at the moment but if you will leave your brief message with your name and number, I'll get back to you as soon as I can." She was routed to her VM.
"Might be busy" she said and dialed the next person on the list, Venus.
After a few rings, Venus picked the phone up, "Hey Alex! What's the matter?"
"Hi! Are you free tonight?" she asked.
"Why? Any problem?" Venus asked as well, her friends know her. She's not alcoholic, she's only drinking for two reasons. It's either she has a problem or she needs alcohol to have courage to say something.
"Not really. Just stress. So, you're going?" she asked again.
"Of course! Anytime, it's you after all." Venus lively answered.
"Great! Lets meet at Supladoz City Bar at 10:30 okay?" she said.
"I'll be there! Try to contact Serene then ask her to come with us." Venus said.
"Okay. Just text me. Be careful! Bye!"
"See you! Bye!" Venus answered and after that she heard the beep. The call has ended.
She closed her office computer, grab her bag and walk towards the parking lot while dialing Serenes' phone number.
"Yes, Alexandra baby? What can I do for you?" said Serene after a couple rings.
"Silly! Wanna go out? Venus and I will be chilling out later."
"Sure! What time?" Serene asked.
"10:30 at Supladoz City Bar." she answered.
"I'll be there. I just need to finish my last round of check-ups. I maybe late but not that late."
"Okay. As long as you can make it and text if you're on the way." she said.
"Sure thing! Bye." Serene answered.
"See you. Bye." After talking to Serene, she finally reached the parking lot. Shee got into the driver's seat and dropped her bag on the passenger seat. She drove the car to her condo to change clothes. This will be a fun night, hopefully.
"Come on Adrian! Dillon doesn't want to come so let's just go. You know that it's a miracle that Vin will come too so let's go!" said Vincent trying to convince Adrian.
They were at Dillon's house and hanging out in the garden.
The night was quiet and peaceful but there's this one girl running through his mind. He has not forgotten her ever since the first time he led his eyes on her. She owes him, he was planning to get her pay in a very special way.
"Adrian !!! Are you listening?" Vincent annoyingly asked.
"Sorry. You're saying?" he asked.
"The f * ck man! I've been talking here for some time now and you don't have even a single idea what the sh*ts I'm talking about? Great. Just great." Adrian complained and gave him a sarcastic applause.
"I'm sorry man. I'm just thinking of something." he explained.
"Now, that gave me chills. That must be really important. It's strange that you step in this land again after what happened. Let's drink and talk about it. Come on!" Adrian started to insist again.
"Okay. I'll just text Dillon. He's still in his office." he said.
"Yeah. He's always like that. Is there anything new? Poor Dillon." Vincent commented.
"We both know the reason so let's just understand him." he explained.
"Yeah, right." Vincent replied.
"I'll just get ready and will change a shirt. You can go now with Vin. Just text me the place, I will use Dillon's car for now. My car will arrive tomorrow." he said.
"Okay. I'll text you the address. See you buddy." Vincent said goodbye and left first.
He then walked and went to the guest room and prepared himself.
He just received a text from Dillon, 'Go to hell Adrian! Take care of my car or I'll break every single bone that you have. ' said Dillon. The grumpy man.
Time check. 1:17 AM. He parked the car in the parking lot of a well-known bar here in the area. Supladoz City Bar. Vincent told him they were inside. He walked towards the entrance and continued to enter. Noisy, smoky and chaotic. The song Trumpets by Jason Derulo is currently playing. He saw Vincent waving at him and trying to get his attention for him to come over. He simply walked and ignored the melting looks of the women.
Alexandria forgot what her friends told her just a while ago, "Drink Moderately*. She was drinking tequila while sitting on a stool chair at the bar counter. She's now a little bit tipsy but still she could handle it. Venus and Serene told her that they will go to the ladies rest room but hasn't came back yet.
"Hi miss!" a tall, muscular and average looking man greeted her.
"Hi you face! F*ck off." she replied without looking at him.
"Whoa. Tough. I like you, my name is Ian" the man introduced himself and gave a hand for her to shake.
"I'm sorry but I'm not talking and giving my name to strangers especially to an ugly stranger. I don't like you by the way, so please take your dirty hands with you and leave me the f*ck alone." she answered while her right brow raised upwards. She doesn't want to be rude but she really hates men, and that includes her father. They're all the same. Pests.
The man who's standing in front of her is obviously drunk. Every word and stare that he throws to her is full of lust and desire. She noticed that even though she is a bit dizzy.
"You're mouth doesn't have any filter, huh? How about my lips as a filter? That would be nice. Yes?" the man spoke and grab her arms and moved her closer to him. She could smell the strong scent of the alcohol coming from his breath.
She then shows her smirk and spoke, "If you still love your balls and soon to be baby down there," she point the thing between the man thighs "I suggest you take that f * cking hands off my arm, now." she then gave the man a dagger look right at straight to the eyes.
"No honey, I won't stop until I make you mine tonight. Don't be too narrow, I know you like me too. You can't deny this charm, and handsome face of mine. I can feel it." he boasted. What she hates the most is the person who's self-proclaimed and boastful.
"You can feel it, huh?" she smiled sweetly, "Well, you're not feeling well." she deviously answered.
With that, she stood up and twisted the his arms that made him groaned and frowned in pain.
"I told you to take your dirty hands off me. Didn't I?" she let go of his hands clasped behind his back and quickly turned to face the man and then throw his manhood a hard kick using her right knees.
"F * ck" he exclaimed while cupping his manhood from tge outside of his jeans. "I'm going to kill you, b * tch" he said angrily while still struggling with pain.
"Go on. Try me. I'm gonna kick your ass and strangled you to death this time if you will not f * ck off!" she said and turn her back to him. "Give me another shot." she requested the bar tender in front of her who can't seem to absorb what just happened.
"Y-yes M-ma'am." the bartender stammered that made her shook her head. She no longer noticed the drunk man after she turned her back on him.
"What took Venus and Serene so long to come back? Maybe they got lost or if not, maybe they accidentally flashed themselves. Tssk." she said as she plays on the glass shot.
She lost her thoughts when she suddenly felt pain in her back after a loud bam sound. She heard the people screaming, she slowly manage and turn her body, she forced herself to look at the back even though she was having difficulty in breathing due to the pain she was feeling. He saw the man he had encountered earlier, holding a plastic chair that was probably the thing that was used to hit her. Though in pain, she did not let it show in her face and forced herself to speak.
"Seems like you really lost your balls, you're now hitting a woman? Gross. Are you gay?" she mocked.
Everyone was looking at them, her movements and senses became alert as the man raised the chair and was about to beat her again. She was able to avoid the first blow but due to drunkenness and back pain, she was unable to avoid the second blow.
She winced, "I'm gonna kill you, jerk!" she said while squirming. There's no one trying to stop what this jerk is doing. She's now asking herself where her damn friends at?
Vincent and Vin excused themselves from Adrian to go to the C.R. While waiting for the two, he remembered that his cellphone had been left in the car. He stood up and went out, he hasn't drink yet as he had just arrived.
After picking up the cellphone he locked the car and walked back to the bar.
"Boring" he said as he he plays and rotate the cellphone with his fingers.
Boring not until he entered and heard a loud, seems to be trouble-noises from the croud. He then heard a man and womans voice. A familiar voice.
"Excuse me." he said and ask for a way out of the crowd who immediately turned to give him what he requested. 'Adrians' charm.'
"You're too arrogant but your no match to me. If you had only agreed earlier, I'm sure we're now almost in heaven." said the man who was now caressing the woman's hair.
"Over my dead and gorgeous body!" the woman shouted and spat on the man's face.
His eyes widened at what he saw, that's why the woman's voice was familiar. "Sexy Brat" he absentmindedly said. Even though it was dark in the area, he knew she was the woman he was looking for. The woman who owe him and has a debt that needs to be paid. He could feel that something is not right. He could feel and see pain in her eyes though her face has this strong and deadly aura, "Did he hurt her?" he asked the man next to him.
"Yes dude. He used that chair to bit her and dude, you won't believe it. This girl is insane and a fighter!" the man replied with the voice full of amazement.
"And you all were just watching all this time? Was it nice to just watch? Idiot." he said incredulously.
His jaw clenched in anger with the thought that the man had hurt a woman. He saw the man rub the woman's spit and was about to slap her. His feet has its own brain as it started to walked towards the commotion and pulled the women closer to him even before the man hit her.
She knew that the man would slap her because of what she just did. She just waited for his hand to land on her cheeks.
'It's now your time to shine moron, just pray that I do not recover from the pain after this because I will break your neck' she said using her mind when she suddenly felt a hand that pulled her. She bumped into a sturdy thing, 'hmm, the scent smells so good' commented on her mind.
She could not see the persons face because the place was a bit dark.
"Stay." he said. His baritone and serious voice gave chills and goosebumps all over her body.
'How dare him touched me.' He was the second man who laid a hand to her tonight. She hates it. 'You're dead. Interloper' she silently said it in her mind.
She was about to raise her gaze to the man but he suddenly put her at his back and positioned to protect her. She hold the table near her to get some support because she's now feeling very dizzy and has no strength to stand still, maybe of the alcohol and her intoxication. Though dizzy, she could clearly see the man punching another man who did bit her earlier. Just a few minutes later, the man who had earlier hit her is now facing and lying down at the floor, unconscious.
"Are you okay?" asked the interloper. His face seems to be familiar to her but she could not remember where and when she saw him.
"It would have been okay if you hadn't barged in." she said and punched the handsome man in front of her straight in the face. "That's for holding and hugging me! FYI you're scent sucks!" she angrily said. She doesn't know where the last words she uttered came from.
The man's face showed shock, "Do you really tend to be angry with the person who helped you? Didn't your parents teach you how to be thankful at least?" its a series of questions.
"You don't know me. Did your parents not teach you how to stay away from anyone elses business, AT LEAST?" she asked too. It pisses her off whenever someone will mention or even talk about her parents.
"You're unbelievable. So, is it my fault to help you? How I wish I just let you be beaten earlier!" the man shook his head in disbelief.
"Yes I am. And yes, it's your fault, I didn't ask you to help me." after saying that, Venus and Serene arrived with the same frowning face.
"What's happening?" Serene asked crookedly.
"Who's this guy?" Venus asked.
"I don't know him. Just a ramdom guy and a pest. Men." she paused "Lets go." she said. She then grabbed her pouch from the bar counter and started to walk out first.
"Hey! You're welcome!" she heard the man shouted with the voice full of sarcasm. She just raised and showed her middle finger.
'Im planning to chill but my night has been totally ruined.'
