CHAPTER 02
The riverside is the best place when you go jogging near the house. The wind blows is just perfect, you won't feel tired at all.
Thana was getting tired so when she saw a bench nearby she walked there and decided to sit just in time her phone rang.
It's Lexie "Lex, yeah?"
"My baby thanaaa ~ Where are you?" Lexie babied.
Lexie loves babying Thana. Even though she is younger than her, she treats her like her baby. Thana's baby face looks like literally a cute baby.
"Why? I'm jogging right now"
"I miss you"
Thana just chuckled "Oh really?"
"Oh let's meet, come to the house please"
Thana went home to shower and change. She went to Lexie's house after wearing her casual clothes
"I heard the club was full last night, it was a blast?" Lexie said as she grabbed a drink from their refrigerator.
"Tch. Jennyfer told you?" Thana asked.
"Yeah" Lexie put two cans of coke on the coffee table where they're sitting "She also told me about a certain guy" Lexie gave Thana a curious stare.
"What guy?" She asked confused.
"Oh! Don't tell me you don't remember, Jennyfer told me that some guy was somewhat rude to you" Lexie said frowning for she can't remember the exact word Jennyfer has said.
Thana thought about it and then she remembered what happened last night "Ahh! Let's not talk about useless things"
Lexie just laughed at her upset reaction "First time hearing such harsh words from a stranger huh?! Good girl meeting bad guy"
Thana is the sweet, pure and good girl in the group. She loves having lots of friends, so when a friend introduce someone to her she makes sure that they'll be close.
But she also has that attitude when someone is being rude she will fight back and stand her right "I'm not a good girl. You don't have a gig? Why are you just chilling here and inviting me?"
"Ohhh! Changing topic" Lexie laughed "Well! I'm free today and tomorrow so I'll be partying tonight at the club" Lexie singing what she just said.
"Tss. Partying on your day off? Is that your way of relaxing?" She shook her head.
"Yeah. And I'll be inviting model friends and .." Lexie's cheek turned crimson red making her roll her eyes.
"Oh my gosh! You and your Timothy agenda. Is he that handsome for you to be that whipped for him?" She asked smirking.
"He is not just handsome, he is hot as hell!!" Lexie's cheek turned red even more at the mention of him being hot.
"Yucks! You're drooling" She acts as if she's gonna vomit.
"Wait 'til you see him" Lexie said arching her brow of confidence, she just rolled her eyes.
-
Today is the first day of Elias working at the security agency. He's kind of busy 'cause its been so long since he handled it personally.
He was so into reading when someone knocked and barged in "YOOOOOOW!"
Elias glanced to know who was it and then looked back to his paper after seeing who.
"AGGGH So busy again, want to chill?" Levi asked loudly.
"Leave Levi" Elias said without even looking at Levi.
"Oh man! I just got here and you already want me out of here?" Levi said putting his hands on his chest acting like he was hurt with his words.
"Yes and out of my life" Elias said and glare at him.
Levi just laughed "Sorry dude but I know you love me so much so I won't"
Levi is Elias' childhood friend. Their fathers are friends that makes them friends too, they always hang out since kids. Levi is always there for Elias and same for Elias being there for Levi too.
When Elias chose to live in U.S., the time Elias' dad and mom died, Levi helped him heal and never forget to pay him visits in U.S.
"What are you here for?" Elias asked.
"Well, just wanna ask when will the boys come?" Levi grabbed the magazine on the table and started looking at it.
"They'll be here in an hour now, why?" Elias answered.
"Why don't we held a welcoming party for them? It will be fun!" Levi closed the magazine with a big smile on his face.
"Where?" Elias stopped typing and look at him.
"Of course..."
"AT THE CLUB" Levi and Elias spoke in unison and then laughed.
"I know you would say that" Elias' head shook at their silliness "But I'm busy, so go there without me" He continued.
"Oh maaan! Don't be such a kill joy. This is a once in a lifetime moment" Levi showed a disapprovement on his face.
"What are you talking about? They'll be here for long, you can always hang out whenever you want" Elias said.
They're talking when a phone rang interrupting them. It was Elias' phone, he picked it up and put it on his ear "Bro? ... Okay... I'll be there"
"Who is it?" Levi asked.
"They're here" Elias said.
Elias arranged his scattered papers and walked out of his office to meet the gang. They just arrived from U.S., they went to the hide out immediately so that's where Elias is heading.
He got inside the private elevator with Levi following him. The building has a private elevator where he or a person he permitted can only ride.
He press the zero '0' floor for the hide out, only the private elevator has the 0 button.
When the elevator arrived, black and red welcome them. It's a big room looking like a house, it has lots of things including billiard boards, arcade games, and any other fun things to play and a big couch to relax.
It looks like a common hide out for friends, but when you look at it there is only one room in it. That room is field with guns and different kinds of weapon, it's exclusive for the mafia boys only.
Elias stepped on the room and that's when loud voices welcome him. The four boys are sitting on the sofa named Nathan, Arthur, Lucas and Yohan.
Arthur is the oldest and the closest brother to Elias, he is from a wealthy family and he has lots of connections.
Nathan is the intelligent one in the group, he is the one who plan what to do for their work.
Lucas, he is the cold-hearted man who don't want to talk. He got the role of the silent killer in the group.
The last one is the opposite of Lucas, Yohan. Yohan is a bubbly guy who is very easy to trust. That makes him very helpful in terms of getting the trust of the enemies.
The mafia boys are complete now, they hugged and hand shakes. Even though their job is tough and rough, the boys shows affection to one another. They build a friendship and not just the mafia gang.
"YOHO! What a great view, the mafia are complete now" Levi said as he enter the hideout
"Hey Levi, you're still loud?" Arthur said
Levi just laughed, "So what are we waiting for?"
"Ahh I get it. You really never change" Yohan said while pointing to Levi.
"If it includes alcohol, I'm in" Lucas said seriously.
"Agh! Lucas and his alcohol" Nathan grunted.
"Okay! So tonight let's party and celebrate the completion of the mafias" Levi said.
Elias just shook his head and Levi saw that "Elias, you're not excluded. You need to join us" Levi said.
"I have lot of works to do" Elias said.
"AHHHH NO BOOO!" All of the mafia said in unison.
"Okay fine, I'll go if I finish my work early" Elias said.
"Okay that's better" Yohan said as they all sit to get along.
-
Thana is at the bar counter and was watching how the club works. She serve and mix every now and then when the staffs are busy especially it's near 10 P.M.
She was waiting for Lexie to arrive when a group of guys caught her attention.
She saw Levi, Jennyfer's boyfriend. She called a staff to assist the guests and at the right time Lexi came "Lexie, come here. I reserved a table for you"
"Oh my god! Thanks thana. Oh by the way, these are my fellow models" Lexie gave her a hug and a huge smile.
"Hi! Welcome to the club, enjoy yourselves" She said as she greeted the models.
"You go sit guys" Lexie pointed to a table to guide her guests.
"Where's your lover boy?" She whispered to Lexie.
"Caught in the traffic jam, he'll be here any minute. I'll call you when he arrives" Lexie said smiling, Thana just nod.
-
"AHHH this is a nice club" Yohan said as he roamed his eyes around the club.
"Yeah how did you found this club Levi?" Nathan asked.
They are complimenting the club when someone arrived.
"Thank you" Jennyfer said.
They were all shocked when they heard a woman's voice. Confused and shocked.
"She's my girlfriend guys, Jennyfer" Levi said.
"Hi!" Jennyfer said as she went to Levi to greet him a kiss.
The boys introduced themselves one by one while shaking Jennyfer's hand. They are awe to Jennyfer's cat face and hotness.
"Thank you for coming in my club, I hope you're enjoying" Jennyfer said.
"We are, you have a nice bar" Yohan said.
"Wait, I'll introduce you to my friend who handles the bar" Jennyfer smiled and left the table to search for Thana. She saw Thana at the bar counter mixing some drinks, she approached her.
"Thana come with me" Jennyfer said.
"Huh? Where?" Thana asked.
"Just come, I'll introduce you to Levi's friends" Thana that is still very confused is being drag by Jennyfer. When they reached the boy's table, Thana was still confused and shocked of the boy's look. Looking so handsome, dominant and strange? They looked like businessmen but at the same time not.
"WOAH! Is that your friend?" Nathan asked checking on Thana.
"She's cute" Yohan murmuring to himself, Lucas heard it but he just smirked.
Lucas didn't even said a word since they arrived except when he introduced himself.
They were talking when Lexie arrived "Thanaaaaa~"
Thana turned to Lexie approaching with some guy behind, Lexie was signalling Thana that the guy behind her is Timothy Jones. Thana understood it easily and approached them.
"Ahm Tim, this is my friend. The one I always tell you" Timothy stared at Thana for a long time. He has weakness to a girl with puppy face and long beautiful legs.
"Hi I'm Thana! Lexie always tell me about you" Thana greeted with a smile.
Timothy noticed her angelic smile and stares at her lips. Thana has a beautiful lips, she has this natural red lips and her lower lip is thick that makes it more beautiful. Thana is his ideal girl and he find her cute and hot at the same time.
It was nearly 12 midnight when the club music starts to get hype up. The people that are just drinking and chilling started to get up and crowded the center of the club.
Just when we thought 12 midnight is the time we should go home just like the Cinderella story, but clubs are different. 12 midnight is the wake up call for all the party goers and night clubs.
"Did he answered?" Levi asked Yohan who is trying to call Elias.
"Tch. It's just ringing" Yohan said.
The boys are getting annoyed because Elias was still not in the club. The celebration was supposed to be because they are now complete but Elias didn't came.
Timothy was just sitting on the sofa while watching his model friends get drunk and dance, he laughed and shook his head. He was roaming his eyes in the club to search for a girl to play with when his eyes stopped at a girl in the bar counter just watching the club go wild.
The girl stood up and walked towards the restroom. Timothy knows now who's his target for tonight or maybe for many days more.
He followed Thana towards the restroom and stopped when he saw her get inside.
The way to the restroom is so narrow, only one person or two can walk side by side. He was leaning on the wall of the boys restroom beside the girls, waiting for Thana to come out and make his move on her.
Thana went out of the restroom when she saw a guy leaning on the wall. She was taken aback because that guy is facing the girl's restroom, looking like he's waiting for someone "Oh Mr. Timothy, are you waiting for someone?"
She was looking around but there is no other people aside them.
"I'm waiting for you" Timothy said.
"For me? Why? Do you need anything?" Thana pointed to herself if he was implying to her.
"Yeah I need something from you" Timothy smirked.
"What is it? Did you ran out of drinks? Okay I'll serve it to your table, you shouldn't have followed me all over here" Thana was about to walk back to the bar counter but he stopped her.
"No, it's not the drinks. We still have lots of drinks on the table. I intentionally followed you here " Timothy looked straight to Thana's eyes. Thana was confused and surprised to his behavior. He never thought the Timothy Jones that Lexie admire so much is a playboy.
She worked in the club so she encountered lots of playboys and she already knew how they move to get the girls.
"Ahm, let's just talk in your table. This is not the right place" Thana tried to passed through Timothy who is intentionally blocking the way. And when she passed through, Timothy stopped her and hold her wrist. Thana was shocked at what the guy did, he's very different to the person Lexie is portraying.
"I just need your number in my phone and maybe your time? You don't need to be afraid, I don't bite" Timothy pulled her closer to his body. Thana doesn't want any trouble so she choose to stay calm to tell him she's not interested.
She was about to talk to him when a person appeared, he looks familiar to her.
Elias was taken aback at what he saw but he chose to walk straight passing the two people. He is about to get inside the boy's restroom when Timothy spoke "Ohh! Mr. Salazar, I didn't know you're here"
Elias was in the entrance of the restroom when Timothy spoke. He just stared at him and then looked at Thana then went inside. That's when Thana remembered where she saw him, he is the rude guy from the other day.
"Why are you here? Did you get tired with all the american girls in the US that you decided to try korean girl for new? I thought you only know the word 'work'?" Timothy said sarcastically.
Elias clenched his jaw of anger but he don't want any useless fights with Timothy.
They were once friends - him, Levi and Timothy. Their friendship ends when Elias' dad died and it was suspected that Timothy's dad did it. Since that day they never spoke again until he went to U.S.
"I'm not like you, I don't taste every woman I see" Elias glared at Timothy and glanced at Thana who was still trap in Timothy's arm. Elias left and went inside the restroom, leaving Timothy gritting his teeth of anger.
Thana forced herself off his hold and let go from Timothy's grip "Sorry Mr. Timothy but I'm not like any other girls, I don't give myself to any man I don't know" Thana said.
"Don't be like that. Baby, I know you like me. There's no girl who don't want Timothy Jones" Timothy confidently said.
"Then believe me, there is. And that's me" Thana walked out fuming mad and left Timothy. She went to the bar counter, she got her own drink to freshen herself.
She was drinking when her eyes found the guy earlier walking out of the restroom. His eyes found hers and stare. Thana saw how his face portrayed disgust, Thana felt ashamed and mad.
Thana is not a girl that is very easy to get, she don't give herself to anyone. Whatever that guy from the restroom thinks with that judgement eyes of him, she hates it.
