Jhoanna's POV

After fighting over who would be the one to pay the bill, which Ate Aiah was the one who won because,

"I'II pay. I sometimes cause you trouble when we get to hang out like this so let me. Okay?"

We couldn't fight her about it cause it's true, going out with a celebrity is not easy. We left the restaurant and made our way towards our cars when Maloi got a call.

"Seriously, you're sending me outside the country the next day and you're also killing me with the works at the moment. Remind me when to resign, yeah?" she said and ended the call.

"I can't drive you to your place Colet. I need to go back to the hell in the earth for me, my workplace.

They needed me there, as usual. I'm sorry." Maloi said with her brows furrowed.

"Nah, I'm good. Take care, okay? Give me a call when you arrive there."

"Will do," Maloi said and turned to us. "Thank you for the dinner, girls. That was fun. I'll see you soon. Goodbye for now." she said and hugged us. She waved her hand one more time before entering her car and drove away.

"So, I'll see you. At the wedding perhaps. It's four days away from now." the annoying creature said. I didn't say anything and let Mikhs and Ate Aiah talk. It's not like I'm gonna say my goodbye to these two idiots, they kept on barging into the office whenever they wanted to.

"Ate Colet, do you want me to drive you to your place?" Mikhs offered.

"NO," I said out of nowhere. "I mean, you're driving Ate Aiah to her house, I can drive Colet. I was the one who drove her here in the first place." I said when they all looked at me.

"You will drive Ate Colet?" Mikhs said emphasising the two words.

"Ye--- what the?! I mean I'll bring her to her place! Really Mikhs?!" I said when I realised that she meant something, and that made her laugh. What was she thinking? Damn this bitch.

"What's wrong with you driving Colet, Jho?" the almighty Maraiah Arceta asks in her most innocent way. And that makes Mikhs laugh even more. She knows that I can't be this bitch to Ate Aiah because she's too innocent, see? She doesn't even know what Mikha means.

"There's nothing wrong Ate Aiah. It's Mikhs who has something wrong with her green mind. Now go, I know you still have work tomorrow. Take a rest, okay? I'll see you." I said and pulled her into a hug which she gladly returned cause I barely initiated it.

"Okay. Don't stress yourself too much too. Okay?" she said and kissed me on my cheek. I smiled and nodded at her.

"Bye Jho." Mikhs also hugs me. "Drive Ate Colet well." but not before saying those words in my ear. I tried to pinch her but she's quick to jump away from me.

"Bye Ate Colet!" she said still laughing. Ate Aiah also waves her hand to the annoying woman and both of them enter Mikha's car. We just stood there watching them drive away.

"You don't have to drive me to my place. I'll just take a cab." Colet broke the eerie silence. I looked at her and said,

"What I say is what I do, if I said that I'll bring you to your apartment, I will. Don't fight me on this. Now, let's go." I said and turned around when a voice called my name, I looked where it came from and saw a man, wearing a Gucci from head to toe. I arch my brows, who is this?

"Hey, it's nice to see you again, Miss Jhoanna," he said. I don't want to be rude but, I don't remember him.

"I'm sorry, but have we met before?" I asked making Colet behind me chuckle. The man's face turned sour for seconds but he smiled again.
