Secrecy of Regrets

58 - Always Last in the Line

58 - Always Last in the Line

After a very interesting scene near the lake, we walked back to the cabin only to witness Charlotte spread over Ethan like cheese on a sandwich. I was almost happy but the remote in Ethan's hand suggested otherwise.

"And you think they are going to confess their filling before the end of the year?" Sassy comment from Jack really created some doubts in my mind.

"Of course. They have to or I'll give them drugs and make them sign the marriage certificate." I shot my head up in triumph and went to snatch the remote.

I heard him scoff or a soft laugh? I couldn't decipher what it was.

We came back. We came back to routine and almost two weeks passed in a blur with all the same quarrels between Charlotte and Ethan, my cold war along with an unknowingly interesting staring contest with Jerk.

After a third weekend, there came dreary Monday!

I skipped college and Jack gave us a ride to the office as the plan was to have lunch together.

Ethan being CEO of his company entered with FAKE freshness I must say because he collapsed in his comfy CEO chair ready to sleep for few more minutes!

We left Charlotte back home enjoying her coffee.

Jack was in his serious posture again.

And I? I didn't make any efforts to hide my disliking towards Mondays.

When did Monday become so interesting?

It's when Charlotte came running to me as if she owned the company... in other sense actually she does indirectly...

Ohh yes, she came to me and started whispering in a not so hushed tone. Almost everyone around me was getting what she was saying and I had to drag her away to Pantry.

"Okay so the thing is SHE showed up today requesting me to add some designs to her gown! I was like 'What made her change her mind?' But that wasn't my concern but suddenly I remembered she has history with that asshole of Ethan and I had to dig as much as I can. You wouldn't believe what she told me! I'm sure you would not."

Charlotte....

She should be put in a museum. - I recommend please.

"Okay, I would not, but for that you have to tell me what exactly she said." I convince the little child standing before me in the body of an adult.

"Ohh yes, I forgot. She said she is going to marry the owner of the Car Dealership Company! And you know what? I know who is the groom!" My eyes couldn't get any bigger!

'Wait what? Jack's plan worked that easily? NO no no.

"Wh-"

"WHO?" Before I could finish my question someone - actually certain someone cut me.

"That idiot Zacky! Remeber? That Henrick Borg! That son of a pig! You know he is just womanizer with a mistakenly gifted wealth. The funny thing is that he once tried to ask me on a date, not knowing what to answer, I just put a whole lot of chocolate in my mouth and took a sip of champagne! Yuck! I just don't know how on earth I came up with that 'mouth full of chocolate' idea? "

Charlotte didn't know but we both released the breath of relief.

"That Henrick Asshole Borg asked you on a date?"

I couldn't help but roll my eyes in exasperation.

"Please tell me why this man is always last in the line to know the things?"
