Amiss (Completed)

VIII

All companies that are under their insurance, were invited on the party that they organized, including the cafe where Diego's ex is currently working. There are three representatives per-company, overlooking their positions. This is also one of the perks they have for each clients every year to make sure that every one of their clients are updated in their new programs and also to attract non-members along the way.

Lisa sipped the bubbly champagne on her hand, while her eyes scanned the pool of humans having fun under the mezzanine floor where she was standing. She leaned on the glass railings, and pushed her eyeglass up on the bridge of her nose using her middle finger.

A lady with a coat on top of her shoulder walked behind her and joined her on her poor escapade, "You should try wine next time." she leaned on the railings too.

"It taste bitter like your soul Becca, no thanks."

Her friend giggled and drank half the liquid on her glass, "How is your mission with the guy?"

"Smooth as planned."

Becca's eyes found a familiar man walking through the crowd, to a lady wearing peach dress. The clothes that she chose for him to wear suits him, she praised him quietly.

"I wonder if they could go back together." Lisa leaned to her following where she was gazing.

"Hope so," Becca drank the remaining liquid on her glass, "I'll go get a bottle, come with me?"

Lisa smiled and hooked her arms on hers, "You think they have whiskey?"

"Hell ya' they should!"

Diego wore a turtle neck shirt under a black coat that looked like the one he initially received from Becca. He looks nice with a small gold ring hanging on one of his ears, his face started growing small beard which highlighted his jaw.

He walked to a girl standing in front of the counter, her fingers jumped up and down the marble table, repeating it consecutively as she waits for her requested mix. She felt a pair of eyes prying on her so she turned her head for a moment to look at a familiar smile, "Diego?"

She immediately noticed the face of a guy whom she had a relationship before, the guy whom she did not thought she would see again.

"Hi Nica." he smiled and waved at her, pushing away the people dancing around him politely.

"I didn't know you're out." Nica giggled, without the music blaring the whole floor, one can hear a strand of nervousness on her laugh.

"Yeah, seems like just a few months right." he laughed awkwardly in return, "How is it going?"

"I am doing fine... Yeah... Uhm- I should go."

"Wait, I... I need to talk to you."

"Hey, babe! You got our drinks?" a man falling a few inches from his height walked to their direction, "Oh, you got company. Hey man, name is Edward!"

The guy was too friendly for him to complain, he just looked at Nica with his confused smile as he shook his hand. "Is... Is this your boyfriend?"

"Yeah..."

"How long have you been together?" he asked Edward, not her.
