"What did you say?", I asked after coming to a quieter place.
"I said you have to come home now.", he repeated.
"What are you talking about?"
"We need an escort to come in.", Seb replied.
"Fine, that will not be a problem. I will come out and get you. Why should I come home for that?", I asked confused.
"You don't understand. We got to get ready and check our makeup. We can't show up just like that.", Sam complained from the other side.
"You do know that it takes me ten to fifteen minutes to reach there, right? Why don't you just come here and retouch your make up?", I bargained.
"No way. You are coming here and that is final. Maybe we will give you a ride back in the car.", he said without any room for disagreement.
"Fine, I will come. Liam's gone out. I will inform him and come.", I replied.
"Twenty minutes tops. With or without informing lover boy, doesn't matter.", he said before hanging up.
I went back to where I was previously sitting to see if Liam has come back but no. I waited for a few more minutes before leaving him a message saying I was going back to the house for a short time.
I walked as straight and fast as possible in the stilettos. After exactly eighteen minutes fifteen seconds I reached the apartment. Seb's car was parked next to Liam's motorcycle. I made my way up to see the boys seated on the topmost stairs chatting.
"That's you, Tan?", Sam asked loudly while giving me a once over.
"Shh, why are you shouting?", I said moving past them.
"Damn, the picture was already good. And in real she is fucking hot.", Seb muttered.
"What was that?", I asked turning around to them.
"What is what?", he asked confused.
"The murmuring.", I said pointing at him.
"You are hearing things, Tan. He didn't murmur anything. Now open the door. We are running late.", Sam said nudging me to open the door.
Just when I was about to open it, I remembered that I didn't have the keys with me.
"Shit."
"What happened?", Sam asked at my sudden cursing.
"I don't have the keys with me. Liam has it.", I said slapping my forehead.
"What are talking about? The door is open. Did you not lock the door before going?", Seb asked opening the door.
"What are you talking about? How can it be open? I saw him locking it.", I said pushing him aside and entering the house.
I tried switching on the lights but it didn't work.
"Why isn't the power working?", I asked walking further into the house.
"Who -"
Before I could ask out loud who was there, sudden music cut me off.
It was I will do it for you playing.
Suddenly the light glowed in one corner of the room. There was a picture under the light.
I went closer and saw that it was the picture Liam and I had taken today. It was the picture of us facing each other with me glaring at him while he smiled sheepishly with his hands around me. It was taken right after he had pulled my cheek.
