"They've always been close since they met. He has been part of the family for quite a sometime now" she replied.
"You know I don't really trust that guy's cool look. He knows how to change is looks and I think he might have an agenda" he said seriously.
Melissa shook her head. She didn't believe that Drew could have dirty thought for her sisters.
"I don't thinks so" she declined. "Well, if he is interested in going out with any of them, it's not bad since my sisters are not minors. So I don't see it at a big deal" she said insouciantly.
Chris didn't like Melissa answer. He wanted her to take it into thought and say she would warn her sisters to stay off Drew but her answer also made him know that not only her sisters were fond of him but she herself is.
"That's one thing with you. You trust people easily. You know I've been with lot of those unmarried billionaire. They only use women to satisfy their list and dump them when they are tired. Drew isn't a difference. I tell you there are lot of treachery behind his cool eyes" he said with heavy hint of criticism.
Melissa didn't reply him so as not to give him the motion that she favours Drew to him. Even though he is her boyfriend, she didn't like the way he harped on about her benefactor who did him no wrong. She just gave a little smile.
"Dont think I'm saying this to paint him black but I'm thinking about your sisters. If you warned them now, when it happens they won't fall a prey" he said softly when he realised that she wasn't enjoying the conversation.
Melissa quickly changed the subject of discussion from poor Drew. As they chat on, they heard sound of opened door and it was followed by loud laughter. Melissa quickly recognized the voices and she looked at Chris.
"Who's that?" He asked.
"That should be my sisters".
She looked at the direction while Chris adjusted himself quickly.
Drew, Somaria and Tyndall came to view.
"You ladies won't kill me" Drew said laughing.
"No it's Tin. My tommy is aching me because of too much laughter" she said holding her stomach.
"It has nothing to do with innocent me. We are all laughing" she denied.
"There is no day you are guilty" Drew mocked.
"Always innocent" Somaria supported.
They were oblivious to the fact that Melissa was in the sitting room talk more of Chris. Immediately they moved closer and saw them, they came to a halt. Had it been Chris wasn't there, the ladies would have jumped on Melissa and told her how their outing went but seeing Chris they just stared.
Drew gave a curt bow to Chris since he met him there but Chris only nod with a blank look. This made Somaria and Tyndall looked at eachother with a surprised look. Then to Drew who wore his usual non expressing look when he is with outsiders and they look at Melissa who did as if she is not aware of what just transcended.
They gave Chris a very cold Hi which he replied with a bright smile and gave they Melissa a brief hug. Melissa knew that their attitude was because of Chris.
The ladies returned to standing Drew who already moved back so as to keep a distance from Melissa and her guest. He sure knew that he doesn't have any issues with the guy but the guy seems to have with him and he couldn't tell the reason for it.
"I'm leaving" he announced.
"Why?" Tyndall asked.
"Won't I go to my house again?" He smiled. "Before your sister's boyfriend eat me raw" he added inwards.
"C'mon Drew. You promised to stay a while" Somaria said sadly.
"Please don't leave. The house will be dull without you" Tyndall pleaded.
"Ladies I have to go freshen up and change this clothe. I'm not comfortable with it anymore" he said smiling sweetly at them.
None was oblivious to the real reason for his leaving. He just made up that excuse so as not to face any more disturbance but the girls were more cussed.
"What a dandy" Somaria mocked.
"Don't mind Ria. Just stay" she pleaded.
"You know I can't" he gave an understand me please look. "Ok let's do it this way" he said when he realise the ladies are not ready to give in. "Let's go to mine".
Tyndall almost didn't let him land before hijacking the words. "You mean your house?" She was more than surprised.
Melissa was equally surprised when she heard that. Ever since knowing him, he has never for once spoken of his house. She could remember his father complaining that only him and his men knows where he stays and now he invited her sister all of a sudden. She looked at Chris and realized it didn't do well with him too.
"Do you really live on this planet earth?" Somaria asked after she recovers from her own shock.
"I've you been thinking that I live in anter with aliens?" He asked
"You look alien" Tyndall said laughing.
"No he doesn't. I've been thinking him to be a mermaid and that he lives under water because we seldom hear about his house except for I'm leaving" she said with humour.
"Do you mean it?" He asked with a strange expression.
"Hmm hmm".
"I mean like seriously?" He asked again.
"Yes I'm damn serious" she replied in same manner.
"You two should stop. My cheek bones are aching" Tyndall said laughing profusely. She stamped her foot on the floor as if she wants to fly.
Drew and Somaria looked at her and to themselves, Somaria burst into laughter while Drew manage to swallow his.
Their laughter was really disturbing Melissa and her guest. Melissa tried not to smile while Chris got more angry. She knew her sisters were intentionally disturbing while Drew laid low. She dart them a stern look but she got another outburst instead.
"Are you sure about us going to your place?" Somaria asked.
She want to be sure that she didn't hear wrongly.
"Yes but at your sister's approval" he replied looking at Melissa who was making sure she distracts Chris with her talks.
She would laugh out loud at his words that could be barely be heard. Drew could tell that those laughter were too fake because it didn't show in her eyes. He snorted at her attitude.
If it had been that it was only Melissa that is around, Drew wouldn't have needed his approval. He would just command but because Chris was there he had to apply curtsey so has not to get what he didn't plan for.
"That would be great. Big sis won't object" Tyndall said happily.
"Go tell her" he commanded.
The two raced to her like kids to Melissa who was waiting patiently for them.
"Sorry Chris, just a minute" Tyndall said jumping on the sofa that Melissa was sitting while Somaria slouch on the other side looking at her from her upper eye lid.
"Don't jump on me Tin" she scolded gently. "What's the excitement all about?" She asked as if she never knew.
