You behaved very harshly with her" Scarlet said when he sat down.
"I don't wish to talk about her," Al said.
"Okay then. Let's play chess. " Scarlet suggested.
"Do you think you are going to beat me today too?" Al smiled.
"I always do." Scarlet teased.
"Okay then. We will see." Al said as he ordered one of the maids to be the chessboard.
"Okay, I pray you don't lose today too." Scarlet smiled when they began the game.
They had fun and talked till it was late.
"And you've lost today too." Scarlet teased him.
"I just took pity on you." Al defended himself.
"Ohhh.... Is that so." Scarlet raised an eyebrow. Just then Al's phone rang.
"Hey..... how are you," Al asked Austin.
"Are you guys coming yet?" He went straight to the point.
"Wow....going for the bull by the horns," Al questioned.
"It's 5 pm already," Austin said.
"Am expecting you guys to be on your way." He added.
"I won't kill your wife. I hope you know that."
Al laughed.
"I didn't say that." Austin tried to explain.
"We you didn't say it in the exact words," Al said.
"Are you done with the done with dinner preparations," Al whispered.
"Yeah am done. " Austin said.
"Is that Austin.?" Scarlet asked.
"Yeah, it's him"Al nodded.
"Let me speak to him." Scarlet took 5he phone from Al.
"Am already missing you, dear wife," Austin said.
"Same here dear husband." Scarlet smiled.
"When are you coming," Austin asked her.
"We were just on our way. Al is going to change before we come." Scarlet said.
"We will be there as soon as possible." She added.
"Love you," Austin said.
"Love you more," Scarlet said.
"Okay bye." Scarlet did and turned the phone to Al.
"Okay friend you heard her we will be there as soon as possible," Al said.
"Am waiting," Austin said and hung up.
"Okay, so I will go change while you say goodbye to the rest," Al said and left.
"Okay, so I have to go Louis." She said.
"Already, I hope you had a great time," Louis asked.
"Yeah I did and I guess we will meet again tomorrow. " Scarlet smiled.
"Of course. Take care of yourself"Louis said.
" I will. By the way, where's Jules. I wanted to bid goodbye to her."Scarlet asked.
"She's in the kitchen with Sam," Louis said.
"Okay then," Scarlet said as she made her way to the kitchen.
"Hey Jules," She drew her attention.
"I will be going now. It's quite late." Scarlet added.
"Yea....safe journey." Jules smiled.
"I hope you will there tomorrow?" Scarlet asked.
"Am quite positive I will," Jules said.
"Okay then....we will talk more tomorrow. Bye " Scarlet smiled.
"See you tomorrow, Butler Sam." She smiled and left them.
"Let's go." Al gestured as she walked out the door and opened the door to the car for her like a real gentleman.
There was total silence in the car for the first few minutes.
"Do u want to tell me something?" Scarlet broke the silence.
"Nothing you don't already know," Al said
"About Austin right." She asked.
"Yh....." He smiled
"I think it's becoming too much. I know he cares but it won't hurt if I get my space too." Scarlet said.
"I know am the last person to give you advice about your marriage but I know if u just talk to him he will understand," Al said
"Because I also want to spend time with my friend, but he's always busy crawling around you," Al added which caused Scarlet to chuckle.
"I will talk to him.." Scarlet said
"That's the spirit " Al smiled.
Sooner or later they arrive at the Grey Mansion. Austin was standing at the door with his arms crossed.
Al parked the car and Austin came to open the door.
Scarlet kissed him passionately when she step out. Maybe to make up for whatever she will be telling him later.
"You missed me that much?" Austin said in between breaths.
"Don't flatter yourself." Scarlet smiled.
"Hey, dude." Austin drew Al's attention.
"Thanks for taking care of her," Austin said
"Welcome friend."
"I will be heading back now." He added as he started the engine.
"Okay. Bye " Austin smiled as he led his wife to the house.
