"It's not like I don't love you enough to trust you with my secrets but it's just that this sweet atmosphere will get ruined if we go deep into that topic…,"
"It's ok," She replied and beamed at him. "I can wait until you are ready to talk about it. There is no need to rush things," She sounded very mature and understanding as she said this.
"We haven't met for only a few hours but why does it feel like something has changed about you?" Amos asked as he kept peering at her face.
"Something has changed?" Joanna said and took a careful look at herself.
She didn't notice any visible change despite checking herself twice.
"Something like what?" She quizzed when she couldn't guess what he was talking about.
"You have become gentle and sensible…,"
"Hey, are you trying to say I wasn't gentle and sensible before?" She asked and hit his right hand lightly.
"You are always like a fierce tigress with her claws kept in attack mode so you can't blame me for saying this," He said grinning.
"Also, it wasn't only a few hours we didn't see each other but it was a day and six hours," She corrected him with her chin held up.
"I never knew you to be good at calculations so I am surprised to see you kept count of the times we didn't meet…,"
"You..," He held her raised hand and placed it on his chest.
"And no one told me that you were anxiously waiting for me. I thought you were having so much fun with your new friends and forgot about me; the one who has always been by your side," He said and wrapped his hand around her neck.
He tried to kiss her but she moved backwards.
"Y-you are trying to take advantage of me," She said and crossed her hand around her chest.
Seeing her act so cute and innocent made Amos chuckle.
"If kissing you is considered taking advantage of you then all I can say is to get yourself ready because you are gonna be taken advantage of countless times by me in the future," He beamed and ignited the car.
"You are mean…,"
"We are just starting and you are already saying this. I wondered what you are gonna say after our second marriage anniversary," Amos teased and zoomed off.
They continued talking and playing for a long time.
When they reached where Amos was supposed to take a route leading to the apartment he took another. And Joanna noticed this.
"This is not the road to the apartment so where are you going?" She asked, peering at his straight expression.
"You will know when we get there," He replied without taking his eyes off the busy road.
Because she knew she was safe with him she didn't panic though he refused to tell her their destination.
Joanna turned to look at him when he pulled over in front of the club she left not long ago.
"The club!" She asked with widened eyes.
"Yes, I have something to show you. Also, I am here to get revenge on Kyle for the nonsense he told you earlier," He said and pushed the door of the car open.
Joanna had already stepped out of the car before he could hasten to open the door for her.
"Speaking of revenge, you are not the only one who is gonna take revenge. I almost had a mental breakdown and it's all his fault. I must avenge myself today," Joanna retorted and stomped towards the club entrance.
The guards at the door who recognised them didn't ask questions or harass them in any way.
ραпdα nᴏνɐ| сom The first place they visited after entering the club was Kyle's favourite spot.
Amos was stunned when he couldn't find his best friend there. Thank goodness for his P.A which arrived in time to satisfy their curious minds.
"Where is he?" Amos asked the guy he recognised to be Kyle's P.A. "Is he having fun upstairs?" He added and glanced upstairs as if he could see Kyle's room from there.
"He left the club..,"
"Kyle voluntarily left the club? Whoa… that is the first time," Amos remarked.
Kyle's P. A was wise not to consider Amos his equal just because he was talking casually to him.
"Boss told me to relay to you that everything is set for tonight," the guy in the red shirt informed him.
"Are you leaving tonight?" Joanna asked. Her tone showed just how she will react if he confirms her fear.
"You can leave," Amos addressed the guy who seemed to be waiting for his orders.
"Don't tell me you are gonna leave me alone despite how special tonight is…,"
"I know you dislike it here so let's talk upstairs in my room," Amos said. He held her hand and led her towards the stairs.
As they climbed upstairs he shielded her in a way that anyone who wanted to collide with her will have to go through him first.
"If you are gonna leave it's better you say it now…," He opened the door and pushed her in.
He shut the door after he was inside.
The room was pitch black and Joanna couldn't take a step forward out of fear of what was in front of her.
"Why is the room so dark?" She questioned.
He reached out his hand and felt her body.
"Are you with your cell phone?" He asked. Since she couldn't see anything Joanna used his hand as a guide to turning around.
"No. I left my bag in the car earlier and my cell phone was in it," Joanna informed. She tried to feel his body but he grabbed her hands and placed them on his chest.
"I am also not with my cellphone so wait here while I search for the lamp," He said and navigated his way easily through the room even though it was dark.
Amos walked to the bed. He felt the bed with his hand until he found what he was searching for.
