"Where are we heading to?"
He casually leaned in and fastened my seat belt for me like he always used to do.
"You're going to meet someone special to me." He fastened his own seat belt then he started the engine and started driving.
Someone special? His majesty? No way, right?
"Who?" I implored with evident anticipation.
"Solar."
I felt a ringing sensation in my ears. It's like I suddenly became deaf when I heard it's a lady's name.
"Your sister?" I queried with a heavy tone.
He chuckled. "Far from that. How could I make that gorgeous lady, my sister?"
GORGEOUS LADY?!
Is he kidding me? He hasn't even called me gorgeous directly and now he's calling another woman gorgeous? In front of me? Annoying jerk! Infuriating asshole!
I maintained my sight ahead and stopped myself from glancing at him.
"Really.. so we're meeting this gorgeous lady named Solar. Who is special to you? How special?"
I swear I tried to sound indifferent, but instead, I sounded so sarcastic.
