“ What ?!! ”  Bob shouted, stopping the car at the middle of the road, not able to hold his outburst any longer. He tried ignoring her constant poking on his shoulder but he could not take it any longer. “ What do you fucking want ? ”
Her eyes widened hearing Bob swear . She must have really annoyed him to the stage where he let out all his anger. I have passed my limits, she said in her mind. She opened her mouth to speak but closed it back when she sees his hand raised at her.
“ I don’t want to hear anything, just keep quiet, don’t do anything until we get there. Please I’m begging you. ” he pleaded, clasping his hands together. Knowing the kind of girl Kylie is, it is not easy for her to stay quiet. He hope and pray for her to oblige, he really needs that peace and quiet to think. 
Kylie let out a sigh, then nod her head agreeing to what he said. She did an imaginary zip on her lips, closing it then imagine it to be locked by a key, she threw the imaginary key away. She smiled at him after doing that.
“ Good. ” He uttered turning his attention back to the road, different cars honked at him, throwing curses at him. He ignored them not making a move to roll down the window to apologize even if he wanted to, it would cause commotion seeing that Kye is in the car.
He started the car and drive to the hotel, the car arrived at a large building, Hotel Cadel was written on it, on a board placed on it. It swerved to right parking in between two cars, both black. He stopped the car, removing the key.
“ We have arrived. ” He announced, carrying his suitcase that was on the seat beside him.
“ Bob… ” Kylie called his name, he turned to her raising a brow at her, giving her a question look, wondering what she wants to say. “ How am I going to go in ? ”
His nose scrunched up in confusion, wondering why she asked that question. “ You will go with your legs,” He answered giving a short laugh, “ or how do you want to ? ”
She rolled her eyes, then exhale her breath, “ I mean I am still on my uniform, my make up on, no extra clothes. So let me rephrase that question, how am I going to enter without them noticing ? ”
He scratched his head, he forgot that she was still on her uniform. ‘I must be getting old. ’ He said within him, making him shake his head. “ Why didn’t you tell me sooner ? ” He asked, eyeing the uniform wishing it should just change magically to a dress or something.
“ I tried to, ” She defended herself, crossing her arms on her chest. “ but you shut me out, so it is not my fault. ” she said.
He rolled his eyes then huff in annoyance turning back to the front, “ You should have tried the more.” He complained as he started the car and the engine roars, he reversed the car back looking at the side mirrors, getting out of there. He drove away, looking for any place that sells clothes.

Dexton ran with full speed like as if he was being chased by something, rather he was late. He waved at the security men, not bother waiting to talk to them. He pushed the door of the hotel Cadel’s building which looked like it was sky-high standing at the bottom. The glass panels that covered the building always seem to catch the light, and after the sun went down, it would cause the sun rays to gleam, making the building look like it was made of glimmering diamonds.
Pushing his way through the revolving door, Dexton entered the lobby, seeing the person he wants to avoid so badly.
Damn, His luck!
“ Hey Mrs Alisson.” He smiled sheepishly at her, waving at the woman who looks like she is in her thirties, she wore a wine pencil skirt reaching her knee length, it compliments the brown long sleeve round collar top she wore, her hair packed tightly in a bun. A tag was on her top,‘ Mrs Alisson-Hotel attendant.’ it states. When she saw Dexton, she checked her wristwatch, seeing the time he came. It was six-thirty, he was supposed to arrive at five. She looked up to give him a menacing glare but his eyes was already down, he was staring at the floor like there was something  interesting on the floor.
“ Why are you late ?” She scowled at him, he looked up , letting his hazel eyes meet the lady's grey eyes. “ Uhm…you see…” he stuttered trying to come up with something to save himself, “ I was busy in school, training.” He said, hoping for her to drop it.
“ I know you are lying, I don’t have the strength to pester you for the truth. So I’m just going to let you go and assume you are saying the truth. And it is only because you are one of our best cook. Hurry up Dex, we are having guests. You could get some tips.” She winked at him with a smile warming to him.
He smiled back, happy that she did not scold him or give him washing duty, “ Thank you, see you later.” He waved at her, running towards the kitchen, he hit somebody on the way, he muttered ‘sorry’ not bother looking who is that, he scurried to the stairs, climbing to the fifth floor where the kitchen is.
The person he hit, happens to be Kylie, her make up was not on. Her outfit looks too casual, no matter the times Bob begged her to wear a dress or something. She adamantly refuse to pick anything fancy, she wore a gray sweatpants and a gray hoodie and a white snickers to finish her dressing, very unprofessional. She knows that but she does not care. 
Kylie staggered a bit when Dexton hit her a bit, she was quick to gain her stamina, preventing her fall. The hood fell off, letting her hair flow down to her shoulder. 
“ He can’t even apologize, so rude!” She huffed in annoyance, glaring at the boy as he walk away then she notices the uniform he was wearing, it was the same uniform that Ivy high school's boy wear. She was about to walk to meet him, giving him a good scolding when she felt a grip on her wrist stopping her from moving an inch.
She turned to meet the glare of Bob, “ We are not going that, it is that way.” He pointed to the elevator, she traced his hands to the elevator then turn to face him back. “ But he…” He dropped his hands and clasp his hands together, cutting her off. “ No buts Kylie. Please…” He begged, “ Don’t cause any scene Kylie, just go in there sign the contract and get out of here, so I can feast my stomach with that soft, crispy chocolate chip cookies…” he trailed off, thinking about the homely cookies his wife, Sophia promise to bake for him. Seeing the dreamy smile on his face sparked an idea in her head. Slowly a smirk finds its way to her lips, she wanted to tease him but at the same time she wanted cookies, sweet lovely cookies. “ Bob…” she called his name in a teasing tone.
“ What ?!” seeing that smirk on her face, he knew she was up to no good. He wondered what was going on in that little head of hers.
“ If you want me to behave well, you will have to take me to your house to eat cookies.” She said gleefully, clasping her hands in joy, her stomach churn just thinking about Sophia’s cookies, it is mouthwatering. 
“ No, no, no way,” He chanted shaking his head, “ I’m not letting you in my house, unfortunately my wife loves you more than me and that is very terrible for me. You are not coming to my house, no way!” He deadpanned, making Kylie giggle.
“ Well you have no choice, do you ?” she wiggled her eyebrows with a grin on her face, Bob huffed in annoyance refusing to adhere to her wishes. “ Well if you behave badly, it will affect your reputation not mine. So I don’t care what you do.”
“ Oh really ?” she chuckled a little, “ You don’t mind me jumping on the receptionist’s table or perform any form of insanity. You don’t mind at all.”
He shaked his head, “ I don’t mind at all.” telling her, “  I don’t mind. Doing that is helping the news agency, giving them what to talk about. The perfect headline : Kye, the popular popstar has gone cray cray.” He started laughing and Kylie joined him in laughing, he stopped laughing when Kylie joined, he wondered why she was laughing also.
“ Well after that news, I will be called for an interview and I will simply say that it was my darling manager that made me react that way. You will be famous like before but hopefully, my fans may not throw a hate club this time, it is on probability but the agency will disturb you with calls just to hurl insults at you. Do you want that Bob ?” she asked batting her eyelashes at him, looking like a sweet innocent girl but to Bob, she looks like a demon.
He huffed, feeling defeated. He knew that she is capable of doing that. “ Fine, let us just go.” He held her hand to drag her towards the elevator, but she did not move. “ You have not agree yet.” She reminded him, staying put.
Bob grunted, “ After signing the contract, we will go to my house and visit Sophia.”
“ And eat cookies.” Kylie chirped in, smiling giddily.
He rolled his eyes and repeat what she said. “ And eat cookies, happy ?”
“ Yes, very happy. No we can go. ” she laughed, Bob let out a hiss, walking to the elevator not bother dragging her along with him. 
“ No perks of being her manager, she enjoys the much. ” He grumbled as he made his way to the elevator. “ Cookies, cookies, I love cookies, cookies, cookies, I love cookies...” she sang entering the elevator. Bob pressed the button for floor twenty, the top floor trying to block the sweet melodious voice of Kye that seems annoying to him. The elevator door closed and they were slowly raised to the top floor of the building. 
A soft ding was heard as they went up, up, up the many floors. Kylie was busy daydreaming on how she will savour the taste of Sophia's chocolate cookies while Bob was just thinking on how he will arrange Kylie’s schedule in a way it will be comfortable for her. The final ding rang and the door slid open slowly, allowing us to step through onto the floor.
“ We are here. ” Bob announced, as they made their way to the meeting room.
