23. HOME SWEET HOME


23rd of December

" Sorry I didn't call you earlier. You know how things are, the whole family meetings and Christmas, bothersome but needed to check it all from the list."

" No problem." 

" So tell me how was the Babii party?"

" Well.. There is a lot to tell..." Gun smiled broadly recalling that event and then looked at Prim who was standing near him cooking something and decided to move to another room not letting her hear how parties in companies may look like. She was too young.

" There was a lot of drinking but that's the usual thing-"

" I thought so... damn! How could I miss that and choose some boring dinner instead.."

" Chloe wouldn't be happy to hear that." Gun giggled.

" Shhh! Don't tell her anything if you want me alive." Oab sounded serious. " Sorry I interrupted you, continue please."

" We ate together, sang and completed the presents tradition. Everything as normal but then Tay shouted at New and they had a lover quarrel which finished with a kiss in front of everyone." 

" What the-"

" But I don't recall the details, I had to excuse myself because of sudden circumstances." 

" Ouch. If I was there I wouldn't let you drink too much, I know your limits Gun since you destroyed my favorite shoes." Oab spoke teasingly.

" You'll be reminding me of that till my death. I told you I can buy you new ones!" 

" Right, but then I wouldn't have an excuse to become friends with you and make you write my reports." 

" I should have collected your diploma, bastard."

They both laughed recalling the university days. It was fun then.

" Jennie sent me pictures. You and Off really did a great job with managing everything. Decorations, food all looked amazing."

" Yhm, thanks."

" She also told me about you and Off. At first, I was shocked, didn't believe her but Tay confirmed it. Then I thought that I even may have some part in it-" he spoke happily.

" What? Part?" Gun had no idea what Oab was talking about.

" You know... I'm sure you were the same surprised as I when you heard that Off thought we were sleeping together."

" We?"

" We."

" Why...? WHAT?!"

" He didn't tell you about it? 

Gun kept in silence for a moment analyzing things and spoke  " ...No?"

" Eeee... Okay. Nevermind. He'll kill me now."

" Tell me right now what the hell was going on or the murder will be me."

" Gun. Sit down please, it's a long story. I'll tell you everything but don't interrupt until I finished. Promise, na?"

" Okay."

" So..."

Then Oab started to explain. He began from the true beginning of Off and Gun misunderstanding - the tall guy's worst breakup. He described the moments in which Off was acting like a wreck of human when he somehow told the ugly truth only to Oab crying on his shoulder like a helpless child who didn't understand why did that happen who blamed himself for all that and when he threw himself on work trying to forget about his broken heart not really taking care about his health almost finding himself in the hospital.
