Filthy Rich by Atarah Yvaine (electronic reader txt) 📖

"Three Musketeers huh?" Kaiden is laughing so hard with the idea of us being the Three Musketeers.

"Yeah, what do you want then? THREE FINEAPPLES?" I laughed with her new idea. Kaiden also burst out laughing. Her humor is really unique.

"Three Fine apples is the best" Kaiden agreed. And I ended up approving it as our official group name.

"Three Fine apples it is. Our main goal is to make sure everyone is FINE." Ali is so proud of her idea. Kaiden and I can't stop laughing.

We first drop Ali into their house.

"So, I'm here. Bye guys. Thank you for the day. I enjoyed it. Kaiden take care of my best friend. Take care." she waved at us before she entered their gate.

I am left with Kaiden.

"So, I heard you are living with your boyfriend? " He asked breaking the silence that envelopes us.

" Yeah." I briefly answered.

"I hope he is treating you right." he's so sweet and thoughtful

"He is super nice. People might not usually see that but he is really nice to me. He is a bit moody but I can handle him." I am really not that sure about the last part though now that he is being cold towards me.

"I know you can. Girls somehow have this control thread over their man. I wonder how can you ladies can wrapped us around your fingers." he mumbled

"Maybe that's the power of love." Here I am talking about romantic love when I don't even have any idea about it.

"I hope you are happy today."

"I am. It's my first time going to place like that and experiencing it for the first with you guys makes it more special. Anyway, thanks for the treat" I sincerely said to him. He didn't make us pay a single penny.

"My pleasure. I am glad I made you happy."

I don't know but even there is just the two of us in the car right now, it doesn't feel awkward. He has this aura that makes everyone comfortable with him.

"Oh, I forgot to tell Ali that I have a basketball game on Saturday. Maybe I will just text her later. I will reserve tickets for you guys. I am looking forward to see you two cheering for me." I gave him a thumbs up.

"Yes, will be there. I'm sure Ali will have the most powerful voice in the Arena." encouragingly I said to him.

"Yeah, one of the reasons I want her to be there" he chuckled.

After more minutes we arrived at Deus house. The house is covered with gloomy darkness. I guess I will be spending the night alone again.

"Thank you Kaiden, take care and please drive safely. See you around" I get out of the car and waved him goodbye. I thought he is about to go but I am shocked when he gets out of the car too. He is carrying the panda bear I got from the shooting game. Oh, I forgot about that.

"Ali forgot to hand it to you" I grabbed the bear and utter "Thank you"

"Bye" I happily waved at him. I watch his car go before I entered the house.

I sighed before I got the key from my wallet and opened the door. The house is so lonely without any one around and it feels even lonelier when you are alone waiting for someone. I opened the lights and I shrieked when I see someone sitting on the sofa. I unconsciously throw my panda bear to his direction.

I clasp my chest and take a really deep breath.

"Gosh, you scared me. I almost had a heart attack" I said gaining my composure.

"What time is it?" he asked looking like he is going to devour me any moment from now. I look at my wristwatch. Oh my gosh.

"Eleven" I said nervously. His eyes never left mine and I can see that he is annoyed about something. He is drinking because I see a bottle of whisky in his side. It's my first time seeing him drinking liquors. He is topless and wearing sweatpants. His usual sleeping outfit. Oh, so he is going to sleep here today?

Okay.

I removed my shoes and place it in the shoe cabinet. I can still sense his stares eyeing my every move. I walked near him to get my panda bear lying on the floor. I use my hands to clean it and get rid of some dust if there is any. I hugged it and is about to go to our room to get change when he spoke something in fury.

"Who the hell is he?" he throws the whisky glass he is holding right into the wall. I look at it and the shattered glasses is scattered on the floor.

Who is He? Kaiden? He saw him?

He stands up and face me. His face looks so scary. He facepalmed and look directly at my eyes. I stared back at him with the same intensity.

"We're back on speaking term, eh? Oh, I wasn't informed." I said sarcastically and rolled my eyes at him then continue walking away.

"Bullshit, don't use that attitude on me!" He shouted at me so I faced him again and raised an eyebrow at him. Really?

"Am I the only one having an attitude problem here? Talk to me when you're sober. I'm going to sleep" I left him there dumbfounded. I really want to talk to him but not on this kind of situation.
