NIGHT CLUB-02

Ryan's POV:

I didn't have to wait long for Caribecause after a few minuteshere comes she is. I'm just intrigued by this girl. I have to admitno one's has left me dumbfounded like what she did. I had never experienced stuttering with any girl but with her. Luckily for me because I caught my jaws before it goes dropped on the floor. She's really that kind of straightforward. We've only met once and this is actually our second meeting.

"Hi." she said with a smile while sitting in one of the bar's stall.

"Hi. So... what drinks do you want?" I can't help myself starring at her.

"Margarita's fine with me."

"Okay," I ordered her drinks while I just got a refill of mine.

"Sowhat do you think of Rian?"

"Huh...?" I was taken aback by her question. "What do you mean?"

"Wellyou know... as a manhow would you describe her as a person...or as a woman?"

"Wait...why are you asking me this?"

Is she seriously want to talk about her friend?

"Because I want to know some man's opinions about her...regarding her attitude.. her personality. And it seems to me that you're also close with her."

"And why do you want to gather someone's opinion about her?"

"Wellbecause she's my bestfriend?"

Although I'm still confused on how this question of her is going to...I answered her with all honesty.

"I met her when I was still in college. She's the younger sister of one of my bestfriend Daniel. She's the shy type of girl before but she's smart. As I heard from Danielshe skipped 2 years in elementary that's why she graduated early in college at the age of 20. She's a strong girl even before."

"If you're going to compare the Rian before and the Rian todaywhat can you say?"

"Ahm...well...as I can seeshe still the same girl I've met before. Except now that she's more matured and beautiful today compared before. She doesn't hold grudges on people."

"Yeah. That she is. And she always thinks first of others before herself." she added.

"And I didn't know she has a talent in singing."

waitwhat? "Is that Rian on the stage?" I asked her not sure of what I'm seeing.

"Yeah...that's her. I'm wondering why her husband never see that things in her."

-'and I'm wondering if he's watching her right now..waitdid she mention the word husband?'-

"You know that she's married?" I glanced at her while she's looking ahead at the stage where Rian and maybe one of their friends are whispering something sweet to each other.

"Yup. I told you she's my bestfriend. But I've never met her husband. She doesn't even want to talk about him or about this matter".

-'soshe knows that Rian is marriedbut she doesn't know who the guy is. Hmm...interesting. I want to watch Alex's face when he sees his wife singing with a guy on the stage'-

We watched the silent conversation on the stage and when it's about to start...

"I think I have to go. You know... I have friends there waiting for me." she stood up and smiled at me.

"W-Wait...that soon?" I don't know why I don't want her to go. I haven't ask something about her or anything about her.

"Yeah. Thank you for the drinks and for your timeRyan."

Damn! I like how my name rolled on her tongue.

"You're welcomeCari."

"See you the next time."

-'yeah...I'll make sure we're going to see each otherbaby...' See you the next time... Cari."

I wanted her to stay for a little bit longerbut I don't know how to ask it to her. For now...I'll just go back to the boys. I really wanted to watch Alex's reaction when he sees his wife at the same bar.

"Where have you been?" the first question that Alex's has thrown on my face when I went back to my seat.

He has two girls on both sides that caressing his arms and his chest.

"I thought the dance floor was already swallowed you." it's Jack with an amused expression and also has a girl on his side.

I think it's time for me to drop the bomb.

"Wellguess who I bumped with... on the dance floor?" I'm just looking straight on Alex's face.

"Whoever was that... for all I care!" he said with an uninterested tone. And Jack only laughed about it.

-'really? let's see..'-

"YeahI know. For sureyou wouldn't care about her."

He furrowed his eyebrows on me.

"She looked hot tonight in a tight dress. And I didn't know she can sing. She has this voice of an angel. You surely wouldn't care about itthough." I shrugged my shoulders on his unreadable expression.

"Who are you talking about?"

"Nothing. Nothing that you would care and none of your concern." I shrugged my shoulders again.

"Ryan!" he snapped with a warning tone.

I studied his face...now I finally caught his attention.

"Oh...just look at the stage. You will see the girl I've been talking about... she's none other than your wife." I smirked at him while I also caught his shocked reaction before he masked it with a neutral one again.

We are on the second floor with an amazing view that is direct to the stage.

"Look... maybe she's in the middle of her song." and he also looked where I am looking at.
