SUNDAY≈A RESTAURANT>
The waitress dropped the orders of the golden boys on the table and Virgil winked at her,she blushed and walked away
“Where’s Terence?” Virgil asked
“I called him,I think he will be here” Valentino said in a low voice
“Why do you look sick? Is it from the punch last night?” Reed asked and Virgil laughed
Valentino rolled his eyes and checked the time,it’s still noon,but the fact that Giovanni and Vanessa might be meeting together made him restless
The boys already started eating when Terence came in
“I guess you’ve finally decided to be alone” Virgil said
Terence scoffed and sat down beside Valentino
“How’s your lips?” He asked
“Thanks to you,but fortunately it’s fine” Valentino said
“You should stop butting in what’s not your business” Terence said
“I can’t let you hit him” Valentino said
“Wow,I’m jealous” Virgil said and Reed chuckled
“Stop it” he said
“Of course I am,if it was me,he wouldn’t do that” Virgil said
“You don’t expect me to receive a punch for you,am I crazy?” Valentino scoffed and Reed laughed
“You’re crazy” Virgil said and Valentino also laughed
“What about me?” Terence asked
“You need to be taught a lesson too” Valentino said
“Then you should take only Reed as your friend fool” Terence said
“Are you two jealous?” Reed asked
“Jealous my foot,who cares?” Terence scoffed
“Great” Valentino said
Virgil suddenly got up
“I need to go” he said
“Where are you going?” Valentino asked
“I will see you later” He said and walked out of the restaurant
“Where the h*ll is he going in such a hurry?” Terence scoffed
“Does he have a hidden girlfriend?” Reed asked
“I don’t think he can date without telling us,stop thinking and eat” Valentino said

a park
Virgil got down from the car and looked around
Geez,why would she want to come here?” He muttered and used his Face cap
He was about calling her when
“Uncle Virgil!” He heard from the back and he turned
Lotus smiled and ran to him
“You’ve been waiting?” Virgil aside
“Yeah,I lied to the nanny that I am going out with my friends so don’t worry” She said and grabbed his arm
“Why here of all places…..”
“You said you will make it up to me so don’t complain,and besides have you forgotten I’m sixteen?” She rolled her eyes
“Gosh,can you at least forget about what I said?” Virgil groaned as she dragged him with her
“Let’s ride that” She pointed at roller coaster
“What?! I’m not doing that,I will wait here and you will go” Virgil said
“Are you scared of height?” She asked
“What do you mean? Scared of that thing?” Virgil scoffed
“Then prove it” She winked
••
“You’re such a baby” Lotus laughed out loudly as she poured the water on Virgil’s head
Virgil actually threw up after the ride
“Are you mocking me right now?” Virgil looked up
“You should have told me you’re scared of height” She said
“You forced me!” Virgil snapped
“You’re a baby,Baby bear” She said mockingly
“Geez,I shouldn’t have come here” Virgil said,wearing his cap again
“Baby bear” Lotus called again
“Call me wh@tëver you want” he muttered and Lotus laughed
“Buy me ice cream” Lotus pointed at the shop
“Fine,stay here I will be back” Virgil said and she nodded happily
Virgil left her side to get the ice cream
Minutes later, a guy approached her
“Lotus?” He called and Lotus turned,she gasped when she saw him.
“Timmy!” She screamed and immediately they hugged each other,they were actually friends before she left America
“Wow,you changed so much” Timmy said when they broke the hug
“You too” Lotus said
“I’ve missed you so much,I’m so sad you forgot about me” Timmy said
“Of course not,we can still be friends right?”
“I was going to force you Even if you don’t want to” Timmy said and she laughed
They exchanged contacts and Timmy pulled her into another hug,Lotus saw Virgil coming,their eyes met and a frown appeared on his face but he only passed their side and walked away
Lotus quickly broke the hug
“I need to go” She said,running away
“I will call you!” Timmy said loudly making sure she heard him.
Lotus met Virgil in the car but he was looking quite pissed
“Are we leaving?” She asked
“Yes” Virgil muttered and dropped the ice cream on her palm
“Are you okay?” Lotus asked
“Use the seatbelt” He said,ignoring her question
“But….it’s not time to leave yet” Lotus said
“I’m leaving because I have something important to do” Virgil said
“You promised to spend all day with me” Lotus said
Virgil ignored her and started the car
“Is something wrong?” She asked but he kept quiet and started driving
“Hey Virgil!!” Lotus yelled and he stopped the car at once
He turned to her looking surprised,did she just called him by his name?
“Tell me what is wrong with you,are you angry?” She asked
“Who is he?” Virgil asked
“Oh…Timmy” Lotus said, smiling Brightly and Virgil frowned
“We were best friends before I left,I’m so happy to meet him……”
“That’s enough” Virgil said and started driving again
“But…..why do you look angry?” Lotus pouted
“You don’t have to hug just any guy like that” Virgil said
“He’s not just any guy……”
“I don’t care if he’s your friend,it was annoying” Virgil scoffed
“Are you jealous?” Lotus grinned
“Why would I?” Virgil asked
Lotus started eating the ice cream
“Let’s date” She suddenly said and Virgil stepped on the car break at once
“What?”
“Be my boyfriend” Lotus said again
“Stop it” Virgil said
“But I love you!” Lotus said loudly and Virgil’s eyes grew wide
“Why do you look so surprise? Isn’t it obvious? I am really in love with you” Lotus muttered
Virgil swallowed and started driving again
“Say something” Lotus said but still he kept quiet
Soon he stopped in front of the Luke’s mansion
“Virgil” Lotus faced him
“Not here Lotus” Virgil said
“You should reply me…….”
“I said not now” Virgil snapped and Lotus gave him a sad look
“Let’s talk later okay?” Virgil said
Lotus nodded and and got down from his car,he watched her going into the mansion before driving off.

als ≈7pm^vanessa’s room
Vanessa groaned out,she will be meeting with Giovanni in thirty minutes time and she was trying to dress up.
Her mind went to Valentino,she haven’t seen him all day and strangely she was thinking about him. She walked to her closet and started searching for what to wear,she was still searching when suddenly she heard her window cracked open.
She immediately turned curiously and the moment she saw Valentino,a sudden smile appeared on her lips as If she was expecting him
Valentino jumped into the room and Vanessa faced him
“Why are you here?” She asked
“Are you going out with him?” Valentino questioned back as he began walking toward her
“Yes” Vanessa muttered and turned back to the closet,she was about taking out a dress when Valentino hugged her from the back making her stop. His hands around her waist
“Are you sure you want to do this?” He asked
“Why are you so concerned??” Vanessa asked and turned to face him
“You know why” Valentino said
“No I don’t” Vanessa replied
Valentino lean closer and was about kissing her when her phone rang,it was Giovanni calling her.
She looked at Valentino before answering the call
“Hello?” Giovanni’s voice came
Vanessa was about to respond when Valentino slammed his lips on her own
The phone fell from her hand and a loud Mõ@n left her mouth.
“Vanessa?? Vanessa” Giovanni kept calling on the phone
