Dylan slowly for-ced a smile,,,
“Don’t you remember?” He asked.
Scarlett only watched him without making any utterances.
“You told me when we first met. Are you really okay? What if you are having memory loss?” He asked, worriedly.
“Memory…loss?” She muttered.
He nodded.
She took her glance away and took a step away.
“Have a nice day. I’m gonna come back whenever I’m free”
“No problem about that. Take care of yourself”
She nodded and walked away.
“Unnie!!” Ari called.
Scarlett looked at her, with a for-ced smile. written by sommy pearl f. on fb
“Bye!” Ari waved, with a bright smile.
“Bye” Scarlett replied softly before leaving sight.
AT THE OFFICE***
“You are late, Miss Scarlett. Late by 21 minutes” Phil glared at her, after taking a quick glance at his wrist watch.
Scarlett bowed lowly.
“I’m sorry. I had an urgent matter to take care of”
“Urgent matters are here too!! Take care of them first before going outside urgent matters!” He scolded, with a loud voice.
Scarlett pa-rted her l-ips, and hiccu-pp-ed lowly.
Her eyes were bright teary.
“I’m sorry” She muttered, with her head still low.
“Cause of you,,, I missed an important meeting with a client, worth a billion!!”
“I’m…sorry” She quivered.
“Sorry doesn’t solve anything. If you know the work is too ha-rd on you, hand in your resignation letter!”
Scarlett hung her head lower, and tears slid down her eyes.
“Leave and only call me when I have a schedule” Phil gr-unted.
She nodded and slowly walked to the door. She was about to turn the door knob when he heard his voice.
“Your birthday is in next 3 days, right?” Phil asked. written by sommy pearl f. on fb
Scarlett turned to him and nodded gently.
“Yes sir” She replied.
“Just like usual,,, we celebr@te co workers and employers birthday. More info will be posted on the company’s group chat”
“Okay”
“Yeah,,,, now leave”
THAT NIGHT**
“He’s really awful” Scarlett was crying softly.
She was looking at his message- Can we date.
“Why did he se-nd that? Was he trying to pla-y me? Huh! Do I look cheap? je-rk, what does he take me for!. He made my day hell today” She sniffed, and cli-cked on the group chat message.
The informant had already posted based on her birthday;
Miss Scarlett Neil’s birthday will be coming up in just 3 days and as usual, it will be celebr@ted by her colleagues and the CEO, himself,,,
It’s also proudly sponsored by him.
Venue is ‘Lankeey Restaurant’
Cake, Soju & Beef, Food & Other Drinks will be surplus *in-serts cake emoji*
Happy Birthday in advance, Scarlett.
Scarlett smiled.
The chat was locked so no one could reply. It was only the informants which were the admins that could chat there.
Scarlett sighed and kept her phone down.
“Talking about what I wished for my birthday,,,
She took out her notepad and opened it.
“Geez,,, a ki-ss from my boyfriend on my birthday. What was I thinking? It can’t even happen. Where’s the boyfriend? What ki-ss?” She scoffed.
“You made a fool out of yourself. I let my bucket list go to far” She whispered and kept it back. written by sommy pearl f. on fb
3 DAYS LATER,, AFTER WORK,, LANKEEY RESTAURANT, 9:20PM**
Scarlett was smiling.
She was sitting at the other extreme end of the table. Others were around her, left and right.
Phil was the one closer to her, by her left. While Oscar was by her right. Felicia sat close to Phil.
Scarlett had a cute birthday cap, on her head, which was a cone shape, white and pink in color.
On the table was soju, plates of beef, soup, a beef cooker, utensils and a lot more.
Phil sponsored everything, including the whole restaurant.
Everywhere was quite noisy though.
Phil stood up and banged his palm against the table loudly creating a loud sound.
Everywhere became quiet. written by sommy pearl f. on fb
“What’s the ruckus about? We ain’t kids” He said.
Everyone sat down, watching.
“I’m glad some of you were able to make time tonight,,, despite feeling all tired and self centered- He paused, and cleared his throat.
“Anyways, I’m sure we all know our intention of gathering here at this time. Scarlett Neil’s birthday is today and of course, It’s sure a grand day cause she’s my secretary”
Scarlett tried ha-rd not to smile.
Felicia scoffed loudly, she was green with envy.
“Now,,, can we all sing the happy birthday song before she bl-ows off the candle and makes a wish. Of course, we have the whole night here to ourself!”
“Yayyyy!!” Everyone screamed excitedly, and made a round of applause for Phil who smiled before taking his seat.
“In 3, 2, 1, go…Phil said.
♩ Happy birthday to you ♩ (×2)
♪ Happy birthday to you, Scarlett ♪
♪ Happy birthday to you ♪
♪ Many more years to you, Scarlett ♪
♪ Many more years to youuuuu ♪
Hip Hip Hip!!!
“Hurrayyyy!!!!” Scarlett screamed.
“Make a wish” Phil said.
She nodded and bent her head down, and kept her interlocked fin-gers below her jaw.
She closed her eyes and made a wish.
She opened her eye lids few seconds later and blew out the fire from its candles.
“Now, let’s all enjoy and merry!!” Phil clapped.
“Yayyyy!!!” They screamed and clapped loudly.
RIRI’S CLUBHOUSE***
Trina was having fun, dancing and drinking when she suddenly had the urge to use that ladies. written by sommy pearl f. on fb
She slowly found her way, with her long heels tapping the ground aloud. She wore a black gown, which glittered, and which was extremely short.
“Ouuu” She heard a faint sound.
She stopped to see a lady being se-xually harr@$$ed by two men.
The lady was quite drunk too.
Trina scoffed, and took off her left heeled shoe.
“Hey!” She screamed at them.
“The Fu-ck is this? You wanna have fun too?” Man 1 asked, giggling.
“Fool! You two ought to be arrested. You’re s-xually har@$$ing a lady!” Trina screamed.
“And what is it to you? Just go away!” Man 2 snapped.
“Arrogant @$$holes!” She cussed.
“What? What did you say?” They poked the side of her head.
“Ow” She whimpered.
“I’m gonna kill you two!!” She screamed,,and began strucking them with her pointed heels.
A big fight ensured and because of the chaos, the cops came over and all the people pa-rtying in the club were taken away except those who ran beforehand.
SEOUL’S STATION**
Dylan watched Trina, who nonchalantly bit her fin-gers, and spat away the piece.
Her legs are also crossed like no man’s business.
The station was filled up and was too noisy.
“Are you ready to talk now, Miss?” Dylan asked.
She glared at him and scoffed.
“That’s if you can handle me…”
Dylan shook his head and started filing in the information in the computer without interrogating her.
He knew her personal information since they were close before.
“Trina, You are gonna stay in cell for the main time. Judging from the CCTV-
“Oh,,, please,, shut up!” She blasted.
“Pardon?” He asked, with a frown, which caused him lines on his forehead.
“I said,,, shut up!” She snapped.
“I ain’t staying in any cell,,, not by your se-ntence” She spat.
“Watch your language. You’re in the station”
“Watch your language,,, You’re in the station. Blah blah mehhhh!” She mimicked hilariously.
“If you won’t stay in the cell,,, you are gonna stay locked in the station then” Dylan said.
Trina scoffed.
“I Fu-cking hate you” She muttered.
“And I’m glad you do” Dylan smiled.
“You don’t care about any of us anymore,,, like you did before” She hissed.
“Keep your trash shut” He warned.
“Phil was almost dying then but you never helped him. You never even visited for once while he was hospitalized!! I Fu-cking don’t un-derstand what truly happened then in Ronnie’s High” She hissed.
Dylan was extremely angry now. He took out his pistol and stopped up, pointing it at her.
“Don’t bring back the past!” He stressed his words, with anger.
His eyes were blazing red.
Trina laughed.
“So,,, you wanna kill me? I’m not surprised. Do it, je-rk!! Kill me! What have I got to lose!” She screamed and held his pistol, shifting it on her forehead.
“You can’t even pull the trigger. You’re a weakling. Arrogant bastard!!” She cussed.
Dylan took his hand up and shot the gun, which made a loud noise.
Everyone screamed, some bent down and covered their ears. Some trembled while a few nearly ran away.
Trina wasn’t really that shaken.
“Is that the best you’ve got, huh? Pathetic” She scoffed.
“I’m warning you, Trina. Why am I even exchanging words with you. I don’t have your time” He said, and went closer to her.
“What are you up to, je-rk” She snarled.
Dylan seized her hands in a wink of an eye. He was strong and also fast. In that act, he quickly handcuffed her.
“Oww. Let me go, bastard!” She shouted. written by sommy pearl f. on fb
He pulled her into the cell and locked the gate.
“Hey!! Let me go!!” She shouted, jumping.
“I said let me go, bastard!” She further shouted.
“If you’re ready to leave, signal to me” Phil said, and walked away.
“Hey!!!!” She screamed in rage.
23 MINUTES LATER**
“I see you’re ready now” Dylan smi-rked.
Trina angrily looked away and scratched her arm.
“Ouch. I guess those merciless, callously, wild mosquitoes came around” He laughed.
“Just bail me out already!” She barked.
“And who are you calling to do that?” Dylan asked.
“Wait, Let me guess. Phil?” He smi-rked.
“No! Call someone else”
“Who?”
“Geez, You might not have the person’s number”
“Who’s that?” Dylan asked.
“You won’t even know the person! Phil’s bo-dyguard!!”
“Oscar?”
“What? How do you know Oscar?”
“I personally offered him to your brother”
Trina eyed him, wickedly.
Dylan scoffed.
“I have his contact and I know him”
“So?” She asked, maliciously.
“So,,, should I give him a call or not?”
