Rue and Blue

*knock, knock, knock"

Well who could that be. Im too lazy to open the door so I just whispered..

"Doors open. Come in"

"Margaux, Shaun's downstairs looking for you"

At that time I almost screamed my heart out. I turned to the right side of the bed and see who is with me.

My devil brother as usual. I grabbed my phone to see what time is it. 7:30PM. Its too early.

"He said he will come upstairs if you didn't get ready before 8"

"Is he drunk? Tell him that I am going to get ready as fast as I could if he is not that too demanding"

*fijii laughs*

I pulled out my ass then sit on the bed with half closed eyes.

"He still managed to manipulate me eventhough we are not together. I am so sick of this to be honest"

"Margo stop it. Enough. Just get ready and come downstairs"

He shut the door and I feel that he is all not that ready for what I just said. Fijii has been my shoulder to cry on when Jairuz left me broken into pieces. I still can't manage how am I being his bestfriend at this moment.

We are together for almost three years. He cheated more than nine times. Until he chose the girl that he just make out three days. It broke me to pieces. I remember my parents wanted him to explain what he did. His dad is also my dad's college bestfriend. Our business partners. They are like brothers. They are still in good terms after our breakup. Its been a year since that. We managed to be mature and remain friends.

Like I told you last time, I don't have any friends besides Domaine.

He broke up with that girl he chose over me. He's single and showing signs that we have to got back together. But I don't know what to answer. He didn't clear it up to me yet.

I got my pair of shorts. A floral corset then throw in my converse black and white shoes.

I grabbed my wallet, cards and phone. Also a hankie and a sanitizer. Almost forgot the tissues and wipes. I closed the door to my room then I saw my brother staring at me.

"Look Margo, you don't have to go there if you don't want. We'll just hop on other club if you want"

"I'm okay. We're okay. I didn't even remember who he was after the break up" 

He sighed. "If you say so. He's downstairs with mom. I'll stay overnight just to make sure you will get home safe. Update me please."

*He hugged me* I maybe hate his presence but I am thankful that I have an older brother like him. 

"Thank you. Can you pick me up later? Thanks!"

He nods then proceeds to his room. I am taking the stairs one by one then I saw him at our living room talking to mom.

"You are so beautiful as always"

Mom laughed. "You sure that you are going to be okay with that?"

I nodded. Mom throw Domaine's hoodie at me.

"Just in case, Also, message me and Fijii everytime okay?"

"As always"

"Mrs.Lee will go ahead. Don't worry I'll make sure Margaux will get home safe"

Mom kissed me and then he holds my hands as we are approaching the door.

There's his black lambo. He opened the front seat car door for me. I looked up at our house. Am I really okay to get this night? I am not feeling that okay but I guess I'll manage myself.

"You okay?"

I just hop on the car without answering him.

I saw that the last song that he played was our theme song. Him and I. 

"You okay? You didn't have the jolly face for today as usual"

"I'm okay. Let's just drive off to the bar that you are telling me"

He nodded. He played his playlist all through out the way. Its not that far. Just 45minutes drive.

I just open my socmed and reply to every comments that I read. 

He then suddenly stop. I didn't even notice that we are here.

Rue Bourbon. Its not the usual bar we hopped on. Its not like party and DJ's type. It is just a chill one. He guided me then there's something that I notice on. It is just a laid back bar.

"I know it is not the usual bar we always have. I wanna try something new."

He made our way to the bar's table. There's this man with a big mug of beer and on his phone. He looked at me and then smile. I just smiled too. He's wearing an Iron Man tshirt with a nerdy glasses.

"Two Caramel Beers Large"

I widened my eyes. Okay a whole new beer. I never tried this besides the Harry Potter Bar thing that we went to last year with Fijii.

"Margo someone from dad's office just called me. I'll be back okay?"

"Sure Take your time"

I just looked at him while he's making his way through the restroom. I take my first sip. Its more refreshing than what I had before. I thought its going to be sweeter but it is so warm.

"Is that your boyfriend?" The man with the Iron Man shirt talked to me. I am used to it. A small talk then everything will fade away and call it a night.

"Ex and now bestfriend"

He laughed. "You must be so mature to do it" 

I answered "I think so"

"I am Karl. You can call me VJ instead" he offers his hand for a handshake.

"I guess you are drunk. Your name is different from your nickname Haha"

Second sip Jairuz is still not here.

"I am not comfortable with people knowing my name" Okay. Lowkey. Judging by his age I guess he is married and looking for sidechic but no. I will not be.

"Okay I see"

Third sip then I saw Jairuz rushing to me. 

"I have to go home for urgent meeting"

You serious? You are going to leave me here?

"For what?"

Then I looked to your phone, Leslie. I remember that name. That's the girl that you chose over me. You are still communicating with her eventhough you said you want to win me back.

"Don't bother messaging me again. I knew it. You are still with her and still with your ways."

He looked shocked then noticed his phone.

"Its not what you think. I really want to win you back"

"That's it. I just want to have some fun. Please leave."

"We'll talk after this."

He kissed me on forehead and then rushed outside.

"I think we're going to ask the bartender to take back the second beer"

I glanced at him again.

"I can drink even three"
