"Get into the car Layla.." Nolan said again this time his voice laced with impatient. She had been standing unmoving for quite some time now.

"Go on, get in…" Xander motioned for Layla to go. Layla began to move her feet as she walked slowly to Nolan's car.

"Bye Layla, take care of yourself.." Xander waved at her.

"Aren't you going home?" She asked after getting in the back seat.

"I have something to deal with.." he replied as Nolan soon started the car, driving off.

Nolan parked his car at his garage and he stepped out Carla followed suit, Layla doing the same.

"Hmmm.." Carla inhaled deeply as she breathed in fresh air. She was finally at Nolan's house. It took a lot of persuasion to come here in the past and she'd never stay more than an hour.

"Nolan, how about we have some drinks, what do you say?" She suggested happily. She planned to come here and spend some time with Nolan. Good quality time.

"I'm busy.." came his curt reply as he went straight into his room.
