"Oh c'mon!"I growled under my breath.
I left the Sofitel Los Angeles Hotel for hours now and I've been driving like I'm lost. Well, literally I 'm not lost- I've just been wandering acting like a fool trying to come across which ever bar Cedrick could've been hanging out since Jaymes' affair broke. I tried to focus around the area that isn't too far from Los Feliz. I seek him in a few selected bars from the list Brian had given me-Troubador, The Gig, Zanzibar and Fubar. and even Chateau Marmont.
"Two more blocks..."I repeated this mantra over and over again. I can already see the signs of Echo. I parked right outside of the bar.
"Minors aren't allowed inside."The bouncer informed me as I move my way in.
"Well, I'm 18." I told him.
"ID?" He prompted.
I cursed under my breath as I reach for my wallet and handed him my ID. Unlike any other person, this one doesn't have any idea at all to whom he is talking to. It was a relief when he did no weird things as soon as my name registers in his head.
"Go on." he said and gave me back my Id.
Once inside, I paced slowly to give myself enough time to see if he was here. There were no signs of him. I found an empty corner and decided to stay a little longer.
"Hi!" a guy of my age greeted me. He was holding 2 bottles of beers.
"Want a drink? Oh, I mean can I join you?" He questioned.
"I'm sorry,"I started.
"Are you with someone else?"
"No. But I'm really not looking for any company."
He smiled at me then shrugged.
"Cool! Here take this."
"Uhm, No thanks" I refused to accept the beer.
"Please? I insist." he offered.
"Oh.Alright, but just this one okay?"
He took a seat beside me as we clunk our bottles together.
"By the way I'm Anthony, you are?"
"Ahh...I'm"
"There you are Anthony!" One of the guys whom I thought was just passing stopped in front of us, eyeing both Anthony and I suspiciously.
"Hey! Dude."Anthony acknowledged. He then stood up.
