My Favourite Flavour (Official Story)

Chapter 50

While he was waiting for someone being seated inside a cafe which was Seth's favourite place where he mostly used to have meetings with his only best friend, as tapping the fingers on the table curiously that he desperately waited for the person to make his way through the entrance soon. His eyes suddenly lit up when he saw a man with blonde wavy hair, now entering the coffee shop as he stood up while still being near his table.

“Ah Seth!” The tall man waved towards Seth and approached him with a wide charming smile.

“Louis!” Seth chimed along with an equal amount of happiness as later that they greeted each other by shaking hands with warm smiles forming over their faces and comfortably sat themselves down afterwards, when Louis also waved towards a waiter and ordered his coffee.

“Why did you call me all of a sudden? What was the reason? I was worried sick.” Louis curiously talked while glancing towards the man in front of him who was already seeming too much lost in his own world. “Did you call me here just to stare you or what?” Louis spoke again. “Hey!!!” He shook Seth and added further ahead. “Are you okay?”

“Louis, I want you to help me.” After a deep sigh that Seth blurted out and ran his fingers in his soft hair when he pleaded while showing Louis his lost orbs. “Help me out, dude.”

Seth knew Louis so well as he trusted him blindly, after he lost his parents who entered the heavens after facing a tragic accident. Back then, Seth had no one beside himself after them and poverty was about to take over him when he tackled it with his passion in studies. Seth worked hard along with the studies and held on to a scholarship which praised him until he became a bright successful CEO afterwards. Seth found Louis at the same cafe where they were being seated currently at the moment. Back then, he used to come here to attain a pleasant atmosphere while preparing his assignments whereas, Louis used to come here casually and oftenly for coffee, for refreshing purposes and that was how that their knots of friendship tied up when later on, still were being strong. Currently, Louis was wearing his casual clothes which was a button-up shirt with loose pants, having a small printed silk scarf wrapped near his neck gracefully along with his wavy hair slightly covering his forehead. Whereas, Seth wore a white silk shirt with black ripped jeans, along with a pair of black timberland boots, a Rolex owned by his fair heavenly wrist as his black silky soft hair were aside throwing a bare view of his keen forehead, at the world.

“Thank you. Yes, I'm here. What is the thing?” Louis thanked the waiter with a sweet smile who handed him his coffee and later persuaded talking to Seth when he asked worriedly while scanning Seth's blank face. “What is it? Something's bothering you.”

“Are you familiar with the name Marquis Lunard?” Seth asked curiously, making Louis choke onto his coffee when the poor soul started coughing badly. “Oh my god! Are you okay?!” Seth panicked and looked up for a napkin when he later handed it over to him. “I'm sorry. I didn't mean that.” He slightly pouted onward.

“It's okay. I'm fine. Marquis Lunard. How can I not be familiar with that name, Seth? We have been chasing him from past couple of years and everytime, we ends up losing him due to several chances. No one has ever captured that brat.” Louis hissed and almost cursed under his breath while gritting his teeth as his hands turned into fists.

“And as to what reasons that, he's still being out there? Free. Even, when the powerful police officer like you? Is unable to catch him.” Seth asked while sipping his slightly cold coffee.

“Reasons? Huh.” Louis scoffed when he smiled weakly while giving a swirl with the spoon to his coffee. “There are big reasons behind that, my friend.” Seth became silent and waited for Louis to speak up onwards. “Marquis. The kind of man that our department nor any man, never faced.” Louis stated. “He held power of purchasing almost the whole police department as the other officers were greeted happily by him. In return? He simply threw girls at them and frequently makes them brag out about our next targets. He was clever since then and us? We were just mere puppets to our highly acquainted, graduated yet fucking nonsense officers.” Louis growled and kept on gritting his teeth in annoyance when he frustratingly rubbed the bridges of his nose after closing his eyes. “As a matter of fact? Every time that we ended up losing him, while allowing him to run away with our own hands.” Louis sighed, almost feeling defeated towards every of his word being delivered when Seth felt so low and down towards his best friend who was the best police officer among the others, not just in town but everywhere to be hired, surprisingly and anonymously. Louis blew furthermore while being confused all of a sudden towards Seth's anticipated thoughts when his voice followed concertation towards Seth. “Why did you ask about him, suddenly? Everything okay?”
