CHAPTER TWO

Maxwell POV

I was at work like every morning since I have no school to attend today. There was a sudden push at my office door "Yo man,are you busy" One of the four people that can barge with out permission and announcement. It was Ryan one of my two best friend,we are both childhood friend but we got close to my third friend when we were in high school around 11th grade. Now we are all in our final years in college. I run my dad company since I am of age to,my mom left us when I was 5 years old for some random man when my dad had nothing back then,and now he had made name for him self and something she come barging into the office so she is the second person that can barge in are show up with out a call or text,she demand money ever time she is here but I could barely trust or fall in love because of the way she acted and abandoned so I made it my number one determination that any girl I like or fall for I will definitely keep her by my side till she want me or fall for me, "Yo man I am talking to you" Ryan tap my shoulder to bring me out of my thought "Hmm what were you saying I couldn't hear you" I said "I want to go out with me today,I need to go to the club today and you just keep locking your self home everyday after work,have a life tonight" He said,I just shook my head and got back to work "I am not taking no for an answer,you are going and that final" He said "See you by 10 pm on dot no missing" He said and took all my phone along, wait how did he get that those cell phones are important "Hey asshole come back here,Ryan give it back" I called after him "See you in the evening" He wave the phones in the air "I will strangle you I swear" I couldn't chase so as to avoid creating a scene here "Aargh,Now I have to go to one of those stupid club, This is the second time Ryan is doing this always forcing me out of my shell which is not my kind of thing, I really love to be reserved a lot.

Finally the day end, I left work around 8pm since I have to ensure every one finally left work. I walk down to the elevator,pressing the button that will take me to the ground floor and walked all the way to the garage with my car key in hand,I press the button to unlock my car,I got in and drive home "I can't even make call because that asshole took my cell phone away from me" I was mumbling to my self going on and on about how I have an important meet on that phone by midnight,I didn't when I got to the estate it was the gatekeeper loud voice that broke me out of my trance,His voice is really loud almost like a swallowed a speaker,his cheerful voice really something and some times I found it annoying "Welcome back sir" He said with his usual smile "Yeah thanks" I replied,as I drove in "Oh yes I will be going out but I will back tonight or tomorrow morning very early,so please stay alert and remember to lock the door" I said and drove off not waiting to get his reply,I park into the house garage properly before exiting the car and found the door still lock as I met it. It indicate my dad is not back yet,technically this is kind of my dad house more like our family house but I still live here insisted of my house I am always in my dad house on weekends but it really strange that he is going out on weekend's,I brush it off and unlock the door to go in, I sat down first cause I was really tired from all the working and the file reading,inheriting an entertainment industry both it and a modeling company is not easy at all. I check the time on my wrist watch and discovered this is around 8:30 pm already "I will just rest for a little while" I said dozing off already. I woke up after few minute because the home phone was ringing "Aargh who is it now disturbing my sleep" I groan and rum my hands on the small table it always on by the couch I was sleeping on "Hello,Maxwell speaking" I said in my sleepy and huskily voice,since I have a naturally thick voice "Yo man,It Ryan,get you ass here now" I could here music in the background "You are there already,wait which club is that" I asked and stood up lazily and went up to my room,to get shower and get dress but I sat on the bed first to talk to Ryan "Lighthouse,Jeremy club" he said,Jeremy is my third friend that we met in the 11th grade,also from a wealthy home but really independent on him self than his parent wealthy,well let just say same goes for all of us but still the rules for us three since we are the only sons of our parent we are to run their company,I am the only son and only child of my father,Ryan is the only child also and a big time playboy,Jeremy is the only son of his parent but he have a little sister who he protect a lot and I heard the girl have a really close best friend she really cherish,I saw Jeremy sister like three time when,she was still young and once when she grow up in to a lady,Lisa yes that her name. I watch the funniest scene few days ago when Jerry was yelling at Ryan to tell his parent to break off his engagement with his sister,He was like "Ryan,you are four years older than my sister just cut off the engagement,she is still to young to get married" I just stood there watching the both of them,but their parent didn't agree to breaking off the engagement,till today but Jeremy and I both knows this is one of Ryan trick,he has his eyes on that girl since she was little but he will not admit it.After the engagement he barely get in touch with the girls he slept around with or he never even change girls,Man is really serious. I was cut off of my long trance by Ryan beaming voice "Are you still there,Max" He called out "Yes, I am here but wait Ryan" I said "What man" He replied back "Jerry is not in the country right now,I thought he will be closing the club till he come back" I asked confused "Lisa is running it,for today Jerry will be back tomorrow" He said but I know there was definitely a smile on his face "mm so you are going there to see your fiance why do you have to pull me along then" I asked with curiosity "Well I don't want to go alone this time,so get your ass off your bed and join me here now,I will be waiting" He yelled and hang up. I let out a sigh and went to take my bath and change into some causal,a white round neck with a denim jacket and a jean after I pick Versace sneaker and I was good to go,I went straight to the garage to get my car and drove out immediately to lighthouse to met up with Ryan get my phone and leave that place immediately.

That was the plan but I was wrong cause something or someone caught my eye,God she is pretty I noticed one thing she was fumbling with her coat,it looks like she was waiting for someone,I stared at her for minutes and I didn't noticed until our eyes meet now I was staring deep into her brown eyes. She is so pretty,she is really really beautiful God I am speechless "You are staring to hard" Ryan cut me off my thought as he approached me "You are here,isn't she pretty" I asked "Who,oh Lisa best friend" He answered "what that the girl,she is all grown up and full" I said still staring at her when I noticed a girl I recognize as Jeremy sister walking up to her "I only saw her best friend one and that was when she was still young now she as grown into a pretty lady" I said now facing Ryan who was now lost staring at the figures walking into the club house. "Who are you staring at this time around,cause that eyes is not on your fiance anymore" I eyed him suspiciously "That girl was really pretty,do you have you eyes on an angel now" He said "Ah to bad I have a fiance now" He said with a smile "I don't if I can it hard,you know what I am talking about" I said as he pull me along into the club "Let go inside first" He pull me up the stair way to the VVIP room,I know he is a regular customer but I don't know it was to this extent "If someone that didn't know the own of this club they will think you are the own" I said following up the stairs where i caught the glimpse of Pearl's back,she was walking into the main office,well that what written on the door "Stop looking or you will eat up the little girl with your eyes" Ryan said as he tug my arm into the VVIP room. We settled down there for a few minute till that one face have being wanting to see again came,She introduced her self and we teased her for a while before she left. I was getting really reckless not seeing her face,so we tricked her back to us that was when she finally introduced herself as Lisa best friend,Ryan jokingly introduced himself as Lisa fiance even tho he knows her.Well that where every thing went wrong and she just storm out to confront Lisa for keeping secret from her,She was really pissed and didn't listen to any explanation,I try stopping her for her to listen but she just push my hands off and stormed off.I didn't even got the chance to ask for her number and get to know her better. I was mad at Ryan but still I don't like the fact her friend kept something from her for a very long time which it not okay.I left Ryan and Lisa yelling at each other,I pick my phones and left back home.

I met my dad who was smiling all wide in the living room "mm papa something good happened today to you" I asked him with a smile "Yes son,I am getting married" I was shocked but happy for him finally he as decided to settle down after all this years "Congratulation to you dad I am really happy now you will have some to stay with you in this big house" I said and hug him with a smile "Tell me the detail of it all tomorrow cause I have a meeting for now,Goodnight papa" I said.I walked up the stair to my room to get ready for the meeting and rest,Little do I know what await me.
