Chapter 12: Maxine

When we go upstairs we saw Maxine waiting for us.

" Hey so that's you Gel, I didn't recognize you. You grow up so well huh? Yesterday me and Kiel went outside. Let's drink, for of us". Maxine went to hug me and rub my hair. " Yeah sure, nostalgic don't you think?".

I smile cause I know how Max is close with me when we were a child. She use to follow me around and only play with me even though her cousin is Kei. We enjoy our time playing outside, playing catching ball as what kids play. There are so many memories we built as a child. I'm so happy to see her again, she went to another country when we turn 8 and I don't have any contact with her since then.

It's already quarter nine when we finished our paperwork for a day. I knock on Keisha's door before coming in. I honestly still don't forgive Kiel but we're still drinking buddies. I enter Kei's office after she said to me to come in. I saw Max also inside talking and laughing with Kei. I told them that I finish my paperwork and we should go. We go downstairs and saw Kiel waiting outside while leaning on his car.

" Hey, ladies, Ready?". Kiel greets us as he put on a creepy smile on his face. " Hey my ass, you look asshole with that, stop smiling like that it creeps me out". I didn't know why I get upset, is it because of his smile or just because he is being himself? I told Kiel to just open the door and start driving. Kei and Max are in the backseat while I'm beside Kiel. After we get in the car he start the machine and start driving.

After a few minutes, we reach our destination. I open the door for Kei as well Max. My priority is Kei after all. Before we even enter the club I saw Jean at the corner smoking cigarettes. After she saw me she ran to me and hugged me, Kei saw that and makes glared at Jeanette, my body move on its own after seeing that look Kei made.

" It's good to see you Angge, I miss you. You didn't come here often, what happened? Jean ask me after letting me go. " Uh well, why are you here?". I avoid her question and change the topic but Kei suddenly talks.

" Her girlfriend doesn't allow her to come here that often anymore". I shock as I heard those words coming from my girlfriend's mouth. " Girlfriend? Do you have a girlfriend?". The three of them well shocked as well, and they shout together. " Yes, I have but it's a secret I want to my girlfriend said it before me". I went over to the entrance to avoid more next questions. " C'mon let's drink".

I chuckle as I speak, hearing it from Kei herself made my heart melt and made my face turn red. I can't stop smiling, hope there's a chance we might end up in the end.
