Chapter Eleven: Entertainment

"D-Dayf? Oh my God. How are you there?" I asked him.

Still uneasy since the first time I laid ky eyes once again here in the Hops Bar, I saw him and his grin.

"Oh good to see you here again! It's been two weeks since you showed up and ugh. Not gonna lie, I miss you Miss Scarlett. I'm really happy now." He said.

I can see that smile, maybe a happiness if so? It's on his face. He was holding a tray of beers and drinks when he came across me.

"I'm... I'm gonna meet someone here, I need to go." I said, trying to avoid him.

I can't lie anymore when I see that he seems to have a different goal to me.

And that freaking smile? how I hate it to see even once again.

I quickly turned to the left side. Bea's text said that I should go to the left side of the Bar to the VIP section because she is there.

I was about to walk away but Dayf immediately passed the trays he was holding to one of his workmates.

Fuck! That other barista or the waiter, whatever he's called now, should never have accepted the tray!

"I can lead you to it. Tell me where you're going and who you're going to make money with? if there's an I?"

What? Lead? What the fuck! Someone please help me. T_T

I immediately shook my head. I looked to the other side and saw the busy bar.

Just like how busy some of his workmates are to entertain other people at the bar, that's how Dayf wastes his time with me.

shit. I shouldn't have talked to him then! it's really regrettable.

"No need Dayf. Thank you for that but I can find that person even without your help. Just focus on your work. Maybe your manager will scold you if he knows that you're here, talking to me ." I said even though my heart was about to drop from nervousness.

I remember how angry Cox's face was when he saw me with Dayf that time. And I don't want that to happen again.

"No need to worry about that Miss Scarlett. Sir Clifford is busy inside, he has a lot of work and he's also training a lot of newly hired this time. I'm sure he'll never know unless someone will tell him, right? but I'm calmed. No one will tell him since we are all friends here." He said as he winks.

Fuck. I'm a dead meat for sure.

He immediately took off his apron and I saw how dirty his chest was in the fitted black tshirt.

and his LV belt.

For sure, this man looks good but he is a womanizer just like how he looks like.

I said that I'm going to VIP section to meet someone and he instead that he will lead me on the way.

When we are on the way, a lot of woman we've passed by waved at him.

Not just a normal wave saying 'Hi' or 'hello' but in a flirtatious way of saying greetings.

It seems like almost all of them have hit him already a couple of times.

And I don't care. I am disgusted that I was with him now! It makes me look like I'm one of his girls!

Shit.

When I've read the 'V.I.P 8' at the room, I stopped and faced him.

"We will meet in here so Dayf, I'm gonna be okay here." I said.

Silently hoping that he will leave me already.

His eyes sparked. Looking at me like I am a gold he dig in just s minute. His eyes speaks so as his mouth.

"Wow Miss Scarlett, you're really a big shot I see. VIP 8 was only for a dollar rate costumer! Wow! You're really impressive!" He said.

I immediately swallowed. Does he think I'm too rich? is that why he really doesn't let me go?

Oh God. Can even a man be a gold digger?!

My brain is full of questions. He still didn't leave and he was waiting for me to speak.

I don't know what to say so I just smile.

I immediately took the chance to get rid of him.

When I saw that several groups of women came out of the bathroom, I immediately spoke up.

"Dayf, I'm going to use CR. Maybe you have your own things to do?" I asked him.

Obviously that I don't wanna see him anymore but he just chuckled.

And I'm questioning about the things he was laughing about.

"I thought you wanted me the first time you saw me, Miss Scarlett. Why now you sounded like you wanna ditch me in a no time?" He asked.

His eyes filled with surprise and annoyance.

What is he saying?

"I'm going to... I need to have a bathroom break, Dayf. Please." I said.

When I said that, he looked at me deeper as if he wanted to hurt me anytime.

I stepped backward a little. I didn't think that Dayf's face would be that level of disgusting for some reason I don't know.

Anger? annoyed? or maybe the same?

I can't explain Dayf's expression I see now in front of me.

He is tall which is why I have to look up at him to see him.

And when the situation was no longer clear, I was about to leave when he pulled my arm,

That movement forcing me to take it back and slap him quickly.

I looked at him with a visible madness in my face. But he looked at me more annoyed.

"Dayf I told you not to lead me here, right?" I asked him.

His cheeks immediately turned red because of my slap.

And he was really was not in a good mood tonight.

When he faced me, he immediately raised his left hand in an attempt to slap me.

I flinched. Not because of Dayf's slap but to someone's hand on my arm, dragging me up to the hallway where the comfort room was.

His grip on me was tight which gradually loosened when we reached the Comfort room which was empty.

He immediately went inside, with me still holding his arm and quickly locked the main door of Cr.

"C-Cy, I'm not hitting on him this time. I- I was about to meet B—"

"Do your things already." he ordered not to let me finish speaking.

The air conditioner in Hops' CR is cold but my palm gets colder when I see his deep look at me.

His eyes were so ocean coded. Cold, unbearable, unreachable, all of the words that have 'un' describes his eyes.

Or maybe he's also unreadable.

I don't know how he immediately went to Dayf and I's direction because I didn't see any shadow of him on either side of me.

And how he always saves me when I need someone to save me is imprinted in my mind.

I can't understand myself. Clifford Cox is more dangerous compared to Dayf but my heart instantly calms when he's near, when it's all about him.

And my soul rests in peace.

But my mind was kinda contradicting me.

I'm thinking a lot of things I suppose to not since Cycy is not doing anything bad to me.

I just can't sure if his mouth would not hurt me this time.

I turned away from him but he immediately pulled me back.

This time he faced me and he was deep staring at me.

I can not breathe. I can't breathe. It's like I lost oxygen inside because of the way he looked at me.

My heart is lost in the calm state. It seemed to throbbing and wanted to come out of my chest.

"Cy... I never wanted to see Dayf. That's true..."

I said. I was gasping for air. The only thing I could smell now was his perfume that immediately invaded my nose.

He is very handsome. The skin he has is very smooth, his nose was so straight and his lips are now matte reddish in color. His eyelashes are also long too? I can't help but be amazed.

It's true that he deserves to be the heartthrob king back when we were in highschool.

Ever since, he was really a favourite of God of beauty. He also catches my attention.

But he's ruining it when he started to bully me back then.

"I told you not to come near that stupid stinky shit before but you still let him come near you. I'm sure you're not that dumb to not notice that his intentions are bad for you. But you're proving that you are really as stupid as I thought of you." he said.

I was stunned.

"You're really a girl who has no taste in men."

Here he is and his sharp tongue.

despite his sharp gaze, he held my arm so harmlessly.

I was wearing only a sleeveless fitted top paired with my Mini skirt from Celine.

I sighed. I cannot breathe. From the way he talks, I wanna know why he's so calm right now in front of me!
