Chapter 50

Zenovia

“Hey, where had you disappeared to?” Harry asked when I returned to our spot.

“I even tried calling you, but you did not receive my call,” Harry added, as I tried not looking in the direction where Callahan and Cynthia were making out.

“I…I just thought I saw someone I know.” I gave him the half-truth.

However, he immediately grew alert. “You did? Where is he or she?”

I shook my head, “That is not the person I thought him to be, so let it go”

Harry gave me a look of concern but otherwise just shrugged. “Well, as far as you are okay, I don’t mind.”

He looked at my drink, which was still untouched. “Okay, let that glass go. You have been holding it for almost an hour without taking a sip. You don’t have to”

He added with a laugh, but I looked at the drink and gulped it down in one go. Harry threw me an amazed look.

“Woah, what has gotten into you?” He asked, but I only smiled at him innocently, batting my eyelashes.

“You wanted me to loosen up a little, right? I am loosening up,” I said and even from the mask I saw the way he was confused by the sudden change in my behavior.

I was too, but I did not care at this point. I simply wanted to forget Callahan tonight.

I made a face and looked at the glass. “This drink was so boring. Let us drink something nice”

Harry furrowed his eyebrows, “You told me you don’t drink, girl”

I nodded my head. “Change of plans, let us drink something stronger”

Saying so, I grabbed his hand and began dragging him towards the drinks counter. After reaching it, I pushed myself up on the stool and looked at the bartender.

“How may I help you, miss?”

He asked, and I smiled at him, “Knock me off”

The bartender gave me a devious smile and began preparing the drink. I watched in excitement as he threw the shaker up in the air, caught it in his hand, and then poured it into the glass along with some cubes of ice.

“There you go”

He said, and I took the glass in my hand. “Hey, stop.”

Harry spoke, but I closed my eyes, held my nose with my index finger and thumb, and downed it in one go.

The drink sent a tingling sensation straight up my head, making me feel warm and fuzzy.
