There's plenty of girls in skimpy outfits hanging off guys with intimating faces outside the club. It has a much sketchier vibe than it did in the afternoon.

"So, are we going in?"

Izaac: "Yep."

Izaac seems totally calm. If anything, it's like he's anticipating this.

People smoking in front of the club steal glances at us.

My feet are frozen in place.

Izaac: "If you don't want to you can go home. I can do this alone."

"I..."

I hesitate. But within a few seconds, I just have an answer all of a sudden.

"I'm coming with you."

Izaac: "Are you sure?"

"Yeah. I came all the way here, so I might as well check it out."

Izaac: "True. Actually, I'm glad you're staying. Thanks."

He gives me a little smile as we walk into the club.

As we enter the club, a waiter approaches us.

He makes eye contact with Izaac and signals over towards the sofa in the back.

Samantha is sitting there across from Chuck. They appear to be huddled close together, deep in conversation.

Izaac: "Do they come here often?"

Waiter: "Well, they're been in almost every day this week."

Izaac: "Thanks."

He passes him a tip.

The waiter thanks him before slipping it in his pocket and walks off.

Izaac: "My father's been overseas on business all week."

Another waiter approaches Chuck and whispers something in his ear.

Chuck stands up, lightly kissing Samantha's cheek goodbye then walks off to the back of the club.

Izaac watches him go before moving to sit with Samantha.

"Hey, Izaac."

I dart after him.

He plops down in front of Samantha where Chuck was just sitting.

Samantha: "Izaac?!"

She looks at him in shock.

Samantha: "Why are you doing here?"

Izaac: "I could ask you the same thing. While my father is busy working... You're here running around with some guy half of your age."

Samantha: "What are you trying to say?"

Izaac: "To make things worse, he's a classmate of mine. I guess you didn't know that. At least, I hope you didn't."

Samantha: "A classmate of yours... Are you talking about Chuck?"

Izaac gives her an icy look.

Samantha: "It's not what you think it is."

Izaac: "Save the excuses for my father. I couldn't care less."

Samantha: "What are you talking about?"

Izaac takes out his phone.

Izaac: "It's morning in India right now. He should be up soon. Why don't you give him a wake-up call? Tell him where you are and who you're with."
