Chapter 23 Seeking What's Lost

Adrian's PoV

"Philip! Are you trying to kill us!? I am too young to die!" I shouted.

"What!? I can't hear you Dexi! Speak louder." He shouted back.

"Maybe if you stop driving like a madman, then you can hear me."

Confused? OK let's start from beginning.

"How much long!!?" Philip was pacing up and down. I looked at him exasperatedly.

Philip's parents called us a few minutes ago saying that they were stuck somewhere because their car broke down on the way.

Philip, the impatient one, is causing me some serious brain damage with his constant whining.

"That's it!" He exclaimed.

"What's it? You finally realize how much of brain damage you have done to me, and now you are going to apologize and let me live in peace?" I said massaging my temple.

"You have a bizarre thinking Dexi." He looked at me.

"So I am told. But I am going to accept it if it means you stop whining." I said.

"Ohh. I am going to stop whining all right" He said and I sighed in content.

"Now get up." He ordered.

"What!?" I frowned.

"Get up Dexi. We are going home." He said.

"And how do you propose we do that? Fly?" I deadpanned.

"No Dex. We are driving home. I have my ride parked outside Renwick's." He said.

"Ahh" I drawled.

We walked to Renwick's. It wasn't that far. The once lively and huge bar was reduced to nothing.

When we reached the parking lot, my eyes fell on the Philip's bike, I panicked.

I completely forgot that Philip's  ride was a bike. Trust me, you don't want to hear my first bike experience with Philip when we drove to the bar.

"You know what!? The weather is quite nice. So, I would walk home from here. They say it helps in digestion. Bye Philip!" I said enthusiastically and turned to go.

"Woah. Wait right there. You are going to walk home?" He asked.

"Yeah."

"You know, it's not that near. Are you going to walk 10 kilometers in the middle of the night!?"

"Umm..first of all, it's not the middle of the night. Second, I can walk 10 kilometers. It's not that big of a deal."

"Whatever. Hop on Dexter. You are not walking anywhere. Let's ride this baby!"

"Or I can wait for your parents! Surely they would come, even if it takes all night."

"Not happening Dexi. You are coming with me"

"But-"

"Are you afraid I might kill you or something?"

I kept quiet.

"Oh my God. You are!" He shrieked. "God Dex, you are afraid of bikes!!"
