“Welcome, Isabela and Edwina,” he greeted calmly, and held the door for them to walk in. Nevertheless, they were deceived by his calm demeanor and warm greeting. Then, they responded cheerfully.“Thank you, Johnny.”Then, Isabela attempted to be more romantic by throwing herself at him, but he blocked her with his left hand and she withdrew. She smiled and feigned ignorance of his hostility and declared, “I decided to pay you a surprise visit, dear.”“That is good. Welcome,” he responded with a soft smile. After they walked into the parlor, he shut the door.“You can sit down,” he offered. Now the two ladies were stunned when they saw Ruby on the couch and not in the bedroom. Then, Isabela put herself together on hearing 'you can sit down'. She concluded that he was through with her and that she must be on her way out. Edwina had similar thought – she was not worthy of his bedroom.All the same, they greeted at once, “Hi,” Now, Ruby, who was sitting quietly, smiled and responded, “Hi
He looked at the caller and disclosed, “Princeville Ford,” while looking at Johnny.Now, Johnny stood up from Ruby's thighs in excitement and waited to hear what Princeville, one of their friends, would say.“Hello, Princeville. What's up?” Stanley requested.“Hello, guy. What of the Young CEO?”Now, Stanley looked at Johnny and chuckled, “He is here.”“I see. What is your evening like?”“Nothing much. Where are you?”“We are at the garden.”“We?”“Yes. Francis, Pedro, Gerald. Everyone is here.”“Wow! That is a full house.”“Yes. Are you joining us?”“I will revert soon.”At the end of the call, he looked at Johnny before he looked at Carmine, who had taken her seat beside him.“What, do you think, guy? Do we join them?” Stanley inquired.“If the ladies won't mind, why not?”Now, Johnny gave Ruby a questioning look, and she nodded her head in approval. Then, Johnny looked at the fruit drink and the plate of cookies, which she hardly took and asked.“Will you finish your cookies or wou
They watched the lovey-dovey couple and concluded that Ruby flaunted his love to show them how much Johnny loved her over them. They exonerated Johnny, who was the culprit, and made Ruby the guilty. So, they resolved that she would not get away with it.“Thank you, dear,” she acknowledged as she got off. He shut the door and held her right hand as though he had never had a girlfriend before.At the GardenThe friends sighted Johnny playing a good boy as he opened the door for Ruby and held her hand happily. They looked at Stanley for a clue to the puzzle before them, but his facial expressions confused them the more. So, Pedro asked, “Stanley, what is going on?”Without hesitation, he divulged, “Love is going on.”As for Stanley, he revealed the truth but to his friends, they believed that he was funny. They laughed loudly and Johnny, who could hear them from his end, laughed too. Now, he was at the table and they welcomed him warmly.“All hail the Young C.”Princeville shouted. Now,
“That is good enough, but, I will miss you.”“I will miss you too. Would you like to come with me?” He asked with expectations.Now, Ruby, was helpless because she could not think of the appropriate response. He looked steadily at her and waited for her response. Then, she declined politely, “I would have loved to, but as you can see, I’m not prepared for it.”“You are right. We can do that some other time, but I will come back after lunch because of you.”“I will be waiting.”“That's all right. See you tomorrow.”“It is okay. Goodnight.”He got off the car and walked to her side and opened the door. The moment Stanley and Carmine saw him got out the car, they knew that it was time to leave. Now, he held Ruby with his left hand and pulled her closer to himself and gave her a final peck for the day.(Peck)“Sleep tight, my Ruby.”“Sleep tight too.”Now, Stanley got into the car while Carmine and Ruby walked to the hostel. Likewise, they fastened their seat belts before he turned on the
Johnny pleaded. Now, Ruby got into the back seat and Johnny sat beside her. Immediately, Stanley drove off.Meanwhile, Edwina and Isabela, who were kneeling before the security officers, were ashamed and confused. They watched Johnny expressing concern over a lady, a teenager at that. Now, Isabela’s case was compounded as she watched her boyfriend cuddle another lady before her and she could not say, whether she would remain in the school or be expelled.“What have I done to myself?” She thought aloud.“Consider it as nothing, Bella. We will make life unbearable for them in the hostel. Trust me. I will not give up.”Edwina pointed out, with boldness, not minding the presence of the security officers. Now, everything about Edwina was disgusting to Isabela because she initiated the idea to attack Carmine. Then she glared at her and reprimanded, “Can you just shut your mouth for a while and allow me to think? If not for your inordinate desire to get Stanley, I would not have been in this
“Thank you, dear, for your concern. What would you love for dinner?” Johnny inquired.“Anything that is available would be okay by me.”“It is all right.”However, Stanley gave Carmine an askance look, and she admitted to having whatever that was available. The men, walked to the kitchen while Carmine joined Ruby on her seat.“What are your plans? We don’t have any night wears," Carmine pointed out. Then, Ruby responded.“I wondered two. I suggest that we make do with their spare night wears.”“You are right. After all, it is just for the night.”Now, Ruby’s wish to keep an eye on him had presented itself, but on a sad note.In the KitchenApart from Sir Stewart and Lady Mitchell Stewart, the next person who wished to see Johnny change for the best was Stanley. Just as he promised Carmine, he would do his best to repel the numerous girls around him. Meanwhile, he avoided the topic and they prepared the quick dinner silently. Afterward, they served the food with a sense of accomplishme
He added. Meanwhile, she saw more reasons to cry the more when she got into the bedroom. The climax of her discovery was in the bathroom. In the bedroom, she saw empty packs of condoms while in the bathroom, she saw the used ones in the bin bucket. “How can I cope with this?” She muttered to herself. Then, she remembered the discussion she had with Carmine that afternoon. (Just be patient with him and be ready to fight the girls.)“This will not be easy, Carmine," she thought and continued crying. However, she took a warm bath, which gave her some relief. Then, she looked at the spare night wears which were hanging neatly on the rail and wondered, 'How many girls had worn this?’All the same, she smelt it and could only perceive a fresh fragrance which was synonymous to Johnny. Then, she put it on and got off, to the washroom. She walked into the bedroom and discovered that he had changed the bed and pillows covers. Meanwhile, the offending empty packs of condoms had disappeared.“E
“I apologize, Carmine, if I startled you.”Carmine responded with a nod and waited for his answer to his question.“She is fine and fast asleep.”Now, Carmine breathe freely and acknowledged.“That is good to hear.”Then, Johnny continued with a gloomy voice.“Carmine,” he called out and looked at her.“Yes, Johnny.”“I need your assistance.”“In what area, if I may ask?”“I wish to know. Why was Ruby crying so irrepressibly? I don't think it was just the fight.”The question put Carmine in a problematic situation. To gain time and think of an appropriate reply, she teased.“You already have the answer, Johnny”Now, Johnny looked at her and asked.“What is the answer?”Then, Stanley, who was at ease, already alluded to the situation.“The answer is that, it was not just the fight.”Nevertheless, Carmine smiled inwardly because Stanley had extricated her from an awkward situation.“If it was not the fight, then, what made her to cry?”Nevertheless, Stanley fixed his gaze on him and his
