"stupidity leads to love!"

who's that guy?

POV: net

I came out of the shower, wrapped a towel around my waist and check my phone.

I have three text messages in a new group chat!

Yim:
Hi guys! Friends dinner tonight at our place for old time's sake?

Tutor:
I don't know why you added the question mark. It's not an option. This is mandatory. Be here at 7:00 pm or be removed from the wedding party!

Unknown number:
I'll be there. But I plan on eating all desserts🙃

And just like that, I have James phone number!!

***************************

I pull up out front of yim's house and notice James scooter already in the drive way!

I take a deep breath because I feel something close to butterflies in my stomach!!

I walk towards main door. There's a welcome doormat that says "WELCOME". I read it while waiting someone to open the door....

"Net" says tutor with a odd smile when the door opens. He is eyes are wide and his lips are tight, like he is trying to tell me something.

Someone tell this man to not be obvious!

"Come on in everyone is in the kitchen." He says that about seventy-five-percent too loud as I passed by him

I glance back at Tutor with a look of suspicious—suspicious that he might have lost his mind in all this wedding plan—and then I head to kitchen.

I make myself slow down the heck. I round the corner into the kitchen, and my smile falls!

There's a random dude standing near James!!!!!

He's staring at James even though James is giving all his attention to yim's  cooking.

I set the wine bottle that I bought as a gift down on the counter so firmly that I am surprised it doesn't break.

I'm grumpy toddler now

This makes everyone look at me and I can tell that yim is 1000% abusing me or looking at me with anger because of me putting the wine bottle down this firmly in his stylish kitchen counter!

I smirk and said "HI" but I am only looking at James..

"Glad you could make it, net. This is Boss!" Said James

And I realise, he is bringing back the oldest play  in the book. My Play that I used so many times in history. Just like I used to bring girls in our foursome friends dinner just to make him jealous. He is also bringing data to our foursome friends dinner.

I smile letting the originals tank I felt right of my back. James as streaking back. He is trying to get under my skin.

You know why?

Because he likes me!

"Well.... Isn't this cozy?" Asked Yim once we all seated around the dining room table.
