A Hint To Have Fun

Laura

Hearing what Jessica said, I narrowed my eyes with a deep sigh. "It’s not that I'm catching feelings for him or anything, don't get me wrong," I replied. "And by the way, he looks calm. I think he's trying to fake the harsh character he's exhibiting," I added, gasping.

"You are the one getting me wrong. That person you see as calm has sacked so many people for no reason. Does that seem like an act to you?" Jessica replied with a raised brow.

"Well, is that why we are here? If no, please let's change the topic and talk about something more interesting," I suggested, diverting the conversation.

"Well, I'm warning you, if something eventually happens that gets you sacked, don't blame me," Jessica said, sipping on the juice from the glass cup.

"What the hell would I want from him? Don't get yourself stressed about it," I replied, narrowing my eyes with a sigh.

Jessica chuckled at my words before giving me a response. "Well, I think the main reason he's acting like that way is because he's very rich, having companies around Chicago."

"Yeah, I agree with what you are saying. Maybe if he gets poor someday, he would turn good," I said jokingly, which made both of us laugh.

“I love the way we are having a good time now, Jessica. I really love it. Feeling the chilling cold breeze on my skin and staring outside at the busy streets of Chicago is the most captivating thing I have ever done. Chicago is a good place to live indeed," I said, crossing my legs as I also sipped on the juice in my glass cup while staring at the beautiful street.

"Yeah, the street is captivating. Sometimes I do come here to clear my head, after being stressed by that Rowan off a man," Jessica replied with a laugh before shifting her gaze to me. "Why don’t we catch more fun, like a real fun that will lighten up the mood? I have a suggestion that will just fit the spot. I don't know if you will be in support of it," Jessica said, looking at me.

"I would love to hear your suggestion. These days, everything is getting boring to me. I need to catch some real fun," I replied, gasping hard, legs crossed, holding the glass cup in my hands.

Jessica smiled then replied, "Okay, this is it. Why don't we visit the club?, the club is a…."

Before Jessica could complete the word, I shut her up. "Club, you say? Hell no! I'm not buying into that suggestion. I'm married, for God's sake! I can't go to a club," I replied fuming, totally disagreeing with what Jessica had said, then looked away with a hard huff.

"Ooh God, you didn't let me finish," Jessica replied, her hands on her forehead as she shook it with a deep sigh.

"If you want to have really good fun, then the Night Star Club is one of the best places to visit. Ooh God, the music, the strippers dancing, the fun, and everything is just so captivating. I bet you, baby, you're gonna love it," Jessica said with a brief explanation trying to convince me, which sort of ignited an interest inside me as I got curious to experience that kind of fun.

I haven't gone to a club even once. Since my college days, I always wished to visit one but couldn't get the chance, always focusing on my books. Now could be the chance where I can explore my previous fantasy. I could still do it without my husband noticing.

I stood quietly, looking away as I thought to myself. I then shifted my gaze to Jessica. As I spoke, "When do you want us to go?" I asked, which made Jessica shrug her left shoulder as she shifted her gaze to me.

"Wow, see who just agreed to my suggestion! Didn't see that coming. Well, it's a good choice, though. At least doing it once in a while won't hurt or change the fact that you are a faithful wife," Jessica replied with a sneer.

I scoffed at her word, looking away as I got nervous.

"Let's make it tomorrow. Tomorrow is weekends, and it will be more fun, because that's the exact session the club gets busier, " Jessica said with a scoff sipping on her drink.

"But tomorrow is weekend and not workdays. What could I tell my husband? What if he finds out?" I replied, keeping the glass cup on the table as I stared at Jessica for a hint.

"He can only find out when you allow him to," she replied with a smirk.

"Why don't you tell your husband that you have a very important thing to do at work tomorrow and that you would come back the next day? Using this opportunity, you stay at my house, then we wait till night and head out to the club party," Jessica suggested, sipping on the juice in the glass cup she was holding.

Thinking about it, I saw this trick as the perfect lie to tell so I could get time to have fun. "I think that's what I will do. Ooh God, Jessica, you are such a genius," I said, which made Jessica smile nervously.
