"the best way to solve your problems is ignore."the girl in the podcast announced as if she had invented something that could solve anything in the world.

I couldn't ignore my bills, rent, monthly targets , situationships that was made due to my overconfidence. If god asks me for one wish he would grant me , it would most probably be a life just to live with everything in it with no commitments.

I plucked my airpods and I dropped them near the stack of files. It has been a few weeks after the event and the only thing that has changed was the level of my confidence. At this point I did everything in me to avoid people.

My coworkers were nice but not nice enough to forget about my karma. There were good people but there were also Karen's who would point out my mistake rather than thousands of my success .

" So I met this guy, he is cute , he is funny and hot . We are in the talking stage but I really want to ask him out." Jagger sighed as if I should ask the guy out for him.

" So , ask ? I know you are more experienced in this field than me."

" But the problem is I don't want anything serious right now , so dating is not in my option " Right now May and I was looking at each other as if we were trying to decode what was going through his head.

"What about hitting a club, Caden asked if we could go to the Erebus. You could invite him and have a fun time too" Aelin said easily and winked at him .

Aelin was one of the most easy going I have ever seen. She worked at the HR department but we hit it off when she and I was grouped together for planning one of the major event .

Caden was always using his out most rizz on Aelin but none of it worked on her . I couldn't blame him , her moroccan features made her stand out in a crowd.

"Woah.. Caden messaged you, when did you give your number. Erebus is expensive , a night would nearly cost my salary. " May stated .

" I don't know how did he get it but he said all the drinks are on the house and I don't want to miss this one, we all need a break from this whirlwind and what's more better than partying our ass out" Aelin stated as May and Jagger starting nodding their head.

" Guys .... I think.." I slowly started as clubbing was never my scene . So many people dancing and sweating their moneys out to be woken by a whole lot of headache and throw up , not knowing what they have done or said the other night.

"Stop, no excuses today .I know what you are thinking , Ly it's only for one night and tomorrow is a holiday . Let yourself loose for a night Honey" Jag ended it dramatically.

" Ok , but please let me be the designated driver, please " They gave me a thumbs up.

Now we are standing in front of the one of the poshest club in the city .As the name have suggested , the whole building was so dark themed. Only richest people came here , now we were one of them and thanks to Caden.

I was wearing a black full sleeved backless which had a slit in the mid thigh , May in a solid lace cami top paired with a leather skirt, Aylin in a short black tube dress.

I have never felt so hot in a long time . This made me feel confident on my body and made me feel powerful.

The music blasted through the speakers and we were just standing at the entrance as the bouncer asked identity and Aelin said something in his ears.

After the whole commotion , we ordered drinks and talked . That's when Caden decided to bless us with his presence.

" Hey ladies and gentleman , are you guys pleased with the drinks. "

" Stop being formal Caden, we are outside the office" aelin reminded him.

"I am sorry , I am Caden , nice to see you guys " he said giving us a small smile.

"Thank you for inviting us , this place is so beautiful. My name is Jagger, this is May and Lyra"Jagger introduced us and they shaked hands. After that he looked at me with his raised eyebrows.

" Ohh lyra , the girl who spilled water on Roman , that was actually kind of nice . He needed to get his head out of the space he was living in."

"well , thank you for whatever you meant by that" I said shaking his hand. He was giving me eyes like he knows something .

Caden then excused himself and went to attend a call.

I don't know what made me to ditch my friends and also from my duty but as the past weeks events took a toll on me , I considered the better option . Tequila.

It was a harmless sip at first , but it turned me into a whole party mood. Swaying myself to the music as I lost my soul in the crowd. Aelin was nowhere to be seen, May went for a drink and Jagger maybe with the cute guy.

That's when someone I felt someone's hand on my waist . I tried to move away from him but he pulled me towards himself ,slowly dragging my body towards his now rising erection. Then I pushed him , to free myself but his grip tightened.

" Leave me. No "I literally screamed but the creepy dude started to smirk uglily "playing hard to get huh ", What .

That was it , I decided to make good use of my karate skill and he deserved it.

" She said No , leave her alone ", A familiar voice was heard from behind me.

Cliche shit I know .... but things are starting to get interesting.
