Arguments

Eyes were rolling and out of a sudden he saw a familiar face somewhere across their table where they were having dinner together. He stood up and excused himself to go to the toilet room. He was sweating knowing the area was fully air conditioned. Oh my God! What is wrong with him? Macey was here what if she sees him? How will he introduce her to Elizabeth? He should be sitting next to Elizabeth so that Macey will never notice him and to avoid conflict for both of them then returning back to the table but Macey is coming on her way to the toilet too? What the fuck is he going to do now? He cannot avoid her anymore.

"Oh, what are you doing here? Macey was surprised to see him there.

"I'm having dinner with a friend. A treat you know.

"Really? So where were you sitting then?

"Over there. Just there. Acted as if he is about to leave her cause Elizabeth will try to look for him if he will stays longer.

"Okay. See you around.

"Sure. See you around then.

Going back to the table. Elizabeth was busy holding her phone.

"And who are you texting?

"Nothing just updating my IG, nothing serious. What took you so long?

"Huh. Lots of men in the toilet so 'I'll wait for my turn. Did you enjoy the food?

"Yeah so much. In fact I'm full. I need to lose again.

"I like you the way you are. No need to lose weight. You're so sexy with that body. I don't want you to change anything but just that is.

"You think so? Am I sexy to you? Really? Maybe you're just trying to con me?

"Of course not? You know what Liz; All are good to you except for jealousy & being suspiciouos without reason okay. 

"Why, is there something to get jealous Alex?

"I don't know. Let's go somewhere else. I want you to see something. Come on."Exactly about to stand suddenly came near Macey. He caught offguard. He could almost drop the glass he was holding.

"Hi! So you were sitting here and too unnoticed,"macey prompted.

Elizabeth was looking at both of them having conversation with each other.

"Yup." Almost choked him, "then introduce these two lovely ladies to each other."Meet Elizabeth. This is Macey." Both extending their arms to shake hands.

Hi please to meet you,"macey greeted her with a smile.

"Hello,"liz smiled back. There's a little sadness in her voice don't think if it's jealousy or a little upset by the situation.

"His friend. Well my friends are waiting for me over there. Glad to meet you both. Enjoy the rest of the evening. I'll go ahead,"macey insisted.

"Why don't you join us? It's okay right Alex?

"Sure. I don't mind. Have a seat.

"Thanks. But no, thanks. I'm fed up. In fact we're leaving too. Nice meeting you both.

Bye,"macey dismissed.

Okay. Nice meeting you too. Bye. Take care! Liz stated.

She left them while Alex was looking at her. He's waiting for her to say something unusual about what just happened awhile ago.

"Wanna say something Alex?

"Nothing. Why? Is there something to talk about?

"What about that girl? How'd you find her?
