Elyse was currently in her hotel room after ending her conversation with Allyson. They decided to part ways when the night started to get late and the people were getting louder by the seaside where the set-up party was held. Of course! They can't be late when we talk about parties!
She changed her clothes into her swimsuit right away. It's a moss-coloured two-piece swimsuit with a see-through dress as a partner. Elyse smiled at herself in the mirror. Okay, perfect! Elyse observed her appearance. Her natural black-straight hair, ocean blue eyes, and pointed nose with her heart-shaped thin lips. Everything is perfect! Without a doubt, she is really stunning. She chuckled because of the self-praising she was saying. Self-praising is indeed the best praise in the world.
Once Elyse was satisfied with her appearance, she went down to the party. Only drunk people welcomed her. She also noticed a large number of people having a good time on the seashore. Elyse simply waved her hands or smiled a little if she saw some of her other circle of friends. The greetings earlier weren't enough because Elyse literally had friends in every bar and club in their place. Like, yeah, literally, a party is life.
Everyone was already dancing under the disco lights, while others were doing "what who knows what" in the cottage and others were having fun in the ocean under the moonlight. They even started a bonfire! She grabbed an alcoholic beverage right away and walked to the centre of the dance floor, holding her cup. Elyse jumped on every beat, swaying her hips and just dancing the night away. Everyone was having a good time, including her. Some are already inebriated, and some are making out on the side. It didn't bother Elyse in the least. Her life revolves around partying, dancing, and drinking. She is unable to function without these!
Yes, this is the real side of her life!
Elyse spent the night dancing and drinking until someone whispered in her ear, "Hey babe, you know some sexy moves huh?" A voice called out from her back. She didn't turn around and just continued swaying her hips. It's obviously a man. This is probably one of Brett's other circles of friends, since this guy doesn't know who Elyse was. She smirked. Elyse slightly rubbed her back in the man's crotch. He caught up pretty quickly and immediately moved and grabbed Elyse's waist.
She grinned, "Don't you know me?"
"I never saw you. There's no way I will forget a beautiful girl like you..." What a sweet talker. He licked Elyse's earlobe, and her sensitive body flinched because of the hot sensation she felt.
"Oh fuck..." Elyse could no longer play and restrain herself, so she faced him, grabbing his face and kissing him passionately. They began kissing in the middle of the dance floor without wasting any time, without minding the world. They stopped a bit when they both felt that they had run out of breath, but still continued to kiss without feeling bothered. If the two horny people hadn't just interrupted, the kiss would have gotten even hotter.
"I know you want to eat each other right now, but I really need her for a moment." Allison was the one who interrupted them. She was wearing an awkward smile and had a kind of nervous face when she clung onto Elyse's arms to get her out of the noisy crowd. Elyse kind of gets why Allyson was acting a bit strange, even if she still doesn't say anything to her. Allison apologizes to the man Elyse was flirting with earlier. Elyse didn't even get the chance to get his name when Allison pulled her out of the crowd. Allyson took Elyse to a quiet location. She slightly frowned and was in confusion, but she had a hunch on why Allison was acting strangely. That's why Elyse just let Allison pull her around.
Allison stopped for a moment and was on the phone for a minute before handing the phone to Elyse and saying, "Tita called me. She said she couldn't call your phone." Elyse stopped for a second, realising what she meant. She already had a suspicion that this happened every time her mother was unable to contact her. Aside from her best friend, Allison, who else would her biological mother call to find her?
Elyse gestures that everything is fine and immediately picks up the phone. "Sorry for bothering you, Ally..." Allison nodded, "It's fine, you've never been a bother to me. Is it okay if I go inside? Allow yourself plenty of time." Allison gave Elyse a bright and understanding smile. Allison was aware of her situation and always understood Elyse, which Elyse really appreciated all the time.
"Thank you, Ally..."
"Why are you still out partying? Were you planning on screwing this meeting up just to flirt around in some useless place? You know you'll be busy the next day, and you know it's important, so why are you getting drunk?" Amelia refused to let Elyse speak and began nagging her when she answered the phone call.
Elyse looked at the phone with disbelief. Here we go again! Oh god, Amelia didn't even ask if she was fine or whatever. She never did. 'How funny to call her my mother?' Why did Elyse even expect that Amelia might worty about her well-being. "I get it, so what business do you have with me again?" Elyse just decided to get into the business right away, because she knew if she just talked back right now, this conversation wouldn't end.
"...Listen. The heir of the NBG Company wants to meet you tomorrow. He had some proposals to talk about. You know what I mean, right? Meet him and do not be late."
"Where? And at what time?" Let's just finish talking about this bull.
"He'll send you a private message."
Elyse's mind went blank. Did Amelia just give her personal number to some random man again?! "You gave him my personal number?"
"Yes, And I don't see any problems with that." Hey, don't act like what you did is right! "Amelia, didn't you understand what privacy means? That's why I have a secretary, and you should have contacted her to set the appointments or whatever. Who the hell are you to give my personal number to anyone, huh?"
How could she just think about the company and not the privacy of her own daughter? Amelia was only concerned with the company. She didn't mind Elyse as long as Elyse was taking care of the business well. Amelia didn't think throughly about Elyse's privacy. Elyse brushed her hair with her fingers, slowly calming herself because of the sudden irritation she felt.
"... Mind your words! I am your mother!"
"Stop joking around! You are the one who imprinted on my mind that I was never your daughter! You disgust me!" Elyse was not sure if it was because of the alcohol, but she was getting irritated and angry. This is really unusual because when she speaks to Amelia, Elyse is usually calm, but she's very enraged now. "And you don't have to call Allison every time I'm out to party. How many times do I have to say it?" Elyse stated angrily. "I am already an adult! Do I need to follow everything you say? And don't worry, I'll be there tomorrow, so don't ever think of calling Allison again!" She dropped the call without even waiting for her mother's response.
'Stop acting like you care. Stop acting like you ever tried to act like a real mother to me. All these years, you abandoned me, and when you thought I could have some use, you took me back, just to imprint on my mind how much you regret giving birth to me.'
