Jordan's pov...

"Hello?" She clasped her hands together in front of my face, snapping me out of my trance.

"My business card." she offered it to me and I took it, carefully scrutinizing it, just to be sure she wasn't a fraud.

"Okay, Let's go" I gave her back her business card after I confirmed it wasn't fake and turned my back to her, heading towards where I parked the limo and she followed closely behind me.

"Um...Where's the chauffeur?" She furrowed her eyebrows in confusion as I took her luggage from her and loaded it into the trunk of the limo.

"You're looking at him" I slammed the trunk shut as soon as I finished loading her luggage into the limousine.

"Your kidding me right? Don't you look a little young to be a driver?" She questioned, furrowing her eyebrows

"I might not look it, but I'm actually 55, I just look quite young for my age." I uttered jokingly with a hint of sarcasm as opened the door of the back seat for her.

"Then I'm over 90 with the same running speed of a cheetah." She replied sarcastically, putting one hand on her hips.

"Look, all I care about right now is the whereabouts of the chauffeur that is supposed to take me to Woods hotel" she stated seriously.

"Like I said, your looking at him and unless you hop in and quit asking questions, you'll never reach your destination," I said blankly as I opened the door to the driver seat and got in, leaving the back seat door open for her to enter. If she didn't get in, then I would just abandon her and lie about it later. I have way better things to do with my life than drive someone around all day.

"Okay, but at least you should have worn a uniform" she replied in-a-manner of fact manner as she enter the limo, shutting the door behind her. I just rolled my eyes. I don't do uniform and besides, this is only a favour, I didn't have to wear a uniform.

"Um... do you by any chance know any place where I can get something good to eat. I'm kind of starving. The food served on the plane was terrible and I threw up twice because of it." She spoke softly with that sweet angelic voice she used earlier, after a few minutes of me driving.

"Don't worry about that, I know the perfect place for you and it's for free." I grinned a little at the remembrance of the restaurant I haven't been to in a while.

"Thank you" She responded calmly.

"We're here!" I half yelled turning off the ignition and getting down from the car and walked towards the restaurant.

"Okay, but you know you can just wait for me in the car. Right?" She sounded confused as she got down from the car and stared at me.

"I'm only your driver because my uncle asked me to, okay? That doesn't mean I have to act like one" I sighed in frustration. I knew I shouldn't have taken this job.

"Okay, What's BBD?" She was looking up at the sign indicating the name of the restaurant we were about to enter.

"Brianna's Breakfast and Desserts" I pushed open the door of the restaurant and a very familiar looking woman taking somebody's order looked up at me and widen her eyes in shock.

"APRIL!, APRIL!, YOUR SOON TO BE BOYFRIEND IS HERE!" The woman who I know as Mrs. Anderson ignored the customer in front of her and yelled towards the kitchen and I tried my best to suppress a laugh.

" MOM, I LIKE MIKE NOT HIM?" A familiar voice yelled back from the kitchen, who I'm very much sure is April.

"I don't care. Now come out and go meet Jordan hon. and work your sex appeal , while I'll go whip him up today's special" Mrs. Anderson lowered her voice as she walked into to the kitchen to prepare today's special which was good because her screams and shouts were beginning to annoy the customers .

I found an empty table for two; right next to a window showing a clear view the outside, for me and willow to sit in as we waited for today's special. A few minutes later, April came over to greet me, along with today's special which was chocolate chip pancakes with double whipped cream, pistachio nuts, blueberries, and raspberries. Along with a small slice of lemon tart and a frozen yoghurt. She dropped it on the side of my table, but I just pushed it towards Willow and she thanked me for it.

"Hi, Jordan. It's been awhile since you came here even though you know we serve your meals here for free" she said sheepishly.

"Sorry about that, at least I'm here," I said apologetically.

"Um... Did Michael come with you?" She asked biting her lips, looking left and right, feeling agitated and shy.

"Nah. Maybe next time" I replied and she had a sudden attitude change.

"You better do. You get free food here just because my mother likes you and not Mike, but you could have a least brought him here." She muttered brusquely.

"Wow, who's this stranger?" April sounded ecstatic as she pulled a chair from an empty table nearby and sat next to us, finally noticing willow's presence, who had her mouth stuffed with pancakes, like a chipmunk carrying nuts in its cheeks. Cute.

"This is Willow. Willow meet April, April, Willow." I gave a very brief introduction.

"Hi," Willow said after she gulped down half glass of water and put the unopened pot of yoghurt in her handbag beside her.

"Nice to meet you, Willow. Are you and Jordan's girlfriend?" April asked slightly grinning, causing Willow to choke on the last bit of food she had in her mouth and I turned to glare at April.

"April, don't be too forward. Can't I bring a girl that is a friend here without you jumping to conclusion" I was pissed at her. I looked over at Willow, just to be sure she was okay. She was gulping down another glass of water.

"Sorry, but just haven't seen you with anyone for quite some time" April apologized sincerely.

" Sorry, to interrupt you guys but I need to go now, I'm having a meeting very soon," Willow said as she stared at her watch and looked up at me.

"Okay. Bye, April." I stood up and headed towards the front door to leave.

"Okay, but say hi to Mike for me." She half yelled as I opened the front door and left.

Mike. I have to go see him soon. I wonder how our plans for the event is going. I thought as I entered the limo.
