Sighing again, I pinched the bridge of my nose and as I said, "Where the f*ck will I find a date to go with me to a party in an hour!?"
"I can go with you" someone replied to the question I didn't know I said out loud.

Is she talking to me?
"Are you kidding me?" I asked, looking at her as if she was crazy.
"What? Can't I go with you?" she asked, frowning and I sigh.
Of course, I knew there was Ariana. She's someone that can attend the party with me but no, she is not going to because it's too dangerous.
"No, you can't and you're not" I concluded and this was my final decision. We were not going to go back and forth arguing about this...but of course, she said something that made me had to rethink my final decision.

"And are you that sure you'll find someone else? You know time is ticking Mr. Black...who knows how long it may take for you to find someone that will be willing to attend this party with you?" she cut me off, asking.
I mean she does have a point...But why does she want to go? Isn't she afraid?
"And you're aware that I did mention this is dangerous, right? These people are bosses of dangerous gangs from around the world. There may have guns, there may be fights...brutal fights and....dead bodies. You are aware, right?"
