Gift
Ch-136
He could feel a gaze on him all the way which was boring holes in his head. Nicholas knows to whom that gaze belonged. So, he turned back abruptly, shocking her. Michelle's eyes were locked with Nicholas for a second making her flustered. Dammit! She was embarrassed to death today by this man. First, she was embarrassed in front of her friend by this man. Now again by locking her eyes with him. She was caught staring at this gayman!
Argh!
She is a straight person! She wanted to marry a man with strong testosterone hormones flowing from his head to toe. She couldn't like this man! Dammit! No way! Is she weird? Ahh… Michelle started crying over her thoughts. Michelle! This is just momentary liking. You will find a real man instead of this gay man! Yes! That's right! After motivating herself strongly, Michelle's mood lightened a lot. With newfound inspiration, she decided to eat like a pig!
Nicholas: "..."
Does she know he could hear her thoughts?
Damn! This woman! What does she think of herself. Couldn't she think normally? Is she stupid? Don't she have brains. This woman! I am a real man, Dammit! And it's a momentary liking? How could she think like that?!
If he gets a chance he wants to prove to her that he was a real man. This woman…. Sigh… He wondered how this weird and strange woman became the best friend of his princess. He pitied the man who was going to marry her.
"Let's enter this shop!" Esther's excited voice brought him back to the world. The three of them entered the shop and ordered food. The shop sells fried chicken wings, tacos, brie-stuffed burgers, smokey pulled pork, popcorn chicken, and drunken chicken noodles. They ordered all the dishes. Esther only took the dishes with chicken while leaving the rest to the people with her.
Nicholas: "..."
Michelle: "..."
Well… she loves chicken. Michelle recovered faster than Nicholas and continued to eat. Nicholas sighed and ate food along with him. He wanted to tell his brother about his wife but when he remembered her brother was a clean maniac he held back his urge.
After finishing her food Esther waited for the two of them to finish their food and left the shop while they went on a search for other food in other stalls.
"Esther, eat other dishes too. If you like the taste you can eat them," Michelle gave an idea to Esther. For which Esther nodded after thinking the idea is not that bad. The night went on with the search for their food. The three of them stuffed their contents. Esther felt walking was also hard for her. Seeing Esther's and Michelle's lazy ass, Nicholas decided to get the car to them. First, he dropped Esther in Benjamin's house and then dropped Michelle in her apartment. After that, he went to his apartment.
He took a shower and rolled on the bed as he took out his phone to check if there were any calls or messages for him. He saw his brother and Reggie called him. So, he dialed his brother's number to talk about things.
"Hello!" Cyrus's irritating voice could be heard from the other side. If he can, Nicholas wants to hang the phone just like that.
"Brother… Why did you call me so late?" Nicholas said as he yawned, muffling his voice.
"You fucking bastard! Why didn't you tell me that Esther went to food street?" Cyrus's angry voice came.
"Brother… I know you don't like dirty places. Night street is a place that is filled with dirt, smoke, and weird smells. So, I thought you wouldn't like it. Anyway brother, Sister-in-law made me eat lots of food. I am so stuffed, tired, and sleepy. I will take your scolding tomorrow!" Nicholas said as he hung the call.
Cyrus: "..."
What the fudge man!?
His brother hung the call on him! How dare he!?
Cyrus dialed Nicholas's number again.
"Bro… What is it again?" Nicholas said in an extremely sleepy voice, irking Cyrus even more.
"You damn bastard! Blah blah blah blah blah..." Cyrus continued to scold him over the phone. Nicholas felt tired and slept without hanging the phone. He knew his brother would scold him the co[mplete night. So, he let him scold whatever he wanted while he slept soundly.
Cyrus felt something was amiss at that very moment, he heard a loud snore from the other side of the phone. His face darkened. These days Nicholas was turning unruly. He needs to be taught a big lesson. Cyrus hung the call angrily. He decided to go to all kinds of places for the sake of Esther and not to miss any golden opportunities of meeting her. With strong determination, he slept soundly as he remembered that the next day was Sunday. The day where he was going to meet her again.
Next day….
Cyrus woke up early and freshened up. He wore a black T-shirt and jeans. He read online that, if they wear the same kind or color of shirts all the time in front of a woman, she will know that he was trying to woo her and impress her. So, he changed the color. Also, he has to go to Benjamin's place. He needs to look good. Cyrus combed his hair neatly and looked clean.
He went to wake Reggie. By the time he reached Reggie's room, the little man opened the door and came out dressed neatly. The two men gave each other a challenging stare as if saying that Esther likes their dresses.
"Let's go to find mom," Reggie said as he took his cute minion backpack.
"Wait a minute!" Cyrus said and went back to his room. He took the car keys and wallet with him and stuffed them into his pocket. From a drawer, he took out a small gift pack wrapped in a velvet pack and knotted it with a golden ribbon in a butterfly knot. He smiled as he gazed at it and stuffed it in his pocket as he made his way down.
