My Love Journey's
Girls Night

@footballfanatic: this is adorable, I support them.

@gary: she's so beautiful, @PaulKlug is so lucky

@cameltoe: OMG! He's wearing a Paul club hoodie! Please post more about this woman @PaulKlug!

"I told you, love.they like you" Paul said, showing some comments about his post on his Twitter account yesterday. Many people also re-shared the post.

I read some of those comments, realizing more good people than ever before. I smile. "Nearly no comment insulted me. Wow. this is hard to believe."

"There will always be people who don't like us. Just focus on those who are kind and admire you." Paul grinned flirtatiously, teasing me.

"That's what we have to do, right?" I laughed, patting his arm slowly before continuing my activities preparing for tonight.

"Thank you for taking me, Bianka." Valerie smiled at me through the mirror reflection in the toilet.

I put the lipstick in my bag and looked at it. "Either. I'm glad you want to join my friends."

"You know, I don't have many friends because of Carl's relationship.well, you know what I mean."

My heart shrunk a little to hear it. If he and Carl purposely hid their relationship in order to get some peace, I wonder what about my relationship with Paul going forward after all the information about our togetherness is known to everyone. I tried to get rid of all my doubts and tried to believe in Paul. Everything's gonna be fine.

"Yes, I understand." I said, nodding once. "Let's get out. I'm sure our drinks are waiting."

Valerie smiled widely, a smile that made me spontaneously reply to her.

Without wasting a long time, Valerie and I returned to our table. Joined by Stacey, Camille, and Elise.

"What is your real job?" stacey asked, sipping her drink while her eyes looked at Valerie.

We all focused on looking at her as she lowered her head with a smile. "I'm an information security analyst."

We were speechless, completely clueless about his job as an information security analyst. What kind of job is that?

"Yes, and what are you doing with that job?" stacey asked again, a thin grin appearing at the corner of her lips.

"I work at a computer company. Protecting them from hacker attacks and such. Well, you can call me a hacker."

"Wow, pull," I cried as I pushed him with my shoulder, then finished the drink in my second glass. "Does that mean you're hacking for fun?"

"Gosh, of course not." Valerie laughing. "I hacked to stop other hackers, it's kind of hard to explain."

"Yes, these days there are a lot of things that are hard to understand" Camille sighed, I haven't seen her smile all night.

Unbeknownst to Valerie, Camille is having a rough time with Aaron. Their relationship was hanging over the right thread, almost ruined for the hundredth time. From under the table, I squeezed Camille's hand to strengthen her. He looked at me with a faint smile that implied sadness.

"What zodiac?" Elise asked as she landed her elbow on the table, leaning towards Valerie.

Oh, he'll start again with his strange prophecy.

Valerie furrowed her eyebrows while raising her head. "Pisces."

"ah! I love Pisces." spew Elise as fast as lightning.

Stacey rolled her eyeballs. Just like the rest of us, he had also started to drift. "That's because your zodiac is also Pisces!"

"Eh, just admit that Pisces is the best zodiac sign." Elise persists.

Meanwhile, Valerie nodded enthusiastically. "That's right! I agree."

"Hey, girls!" Red arrives our table. A happy look was drawn on Valerie's face and I witnessed her presence.

Red sat in the chair holding a glass of cocktail. "Sorry, I'm late. Felix and I tried to do Facetime s-e-x, or whatever that's called." he muttered, then sipped his drink.

We laughed, then I introduced Stacey, Camille, and Elise to her.

"Are you Felix North's girlfriend?" Elise asked with a happy look.

"Mk."

"He's a Libra, right?" He groans. "I can't even imagine..."

"Oh, my gosh... Why do you keep talking about such a stupid zodiac prophecy, anyway?" stacey said, immediately stopping Elise's spirit. They throw one another a glance, then both put their shoulders together.

"He's a Libra, yeah." Red replied, while Elise was delighted.

"Are you going to Russia?" I asked Valerie and Red after ordering an extra drink.

We were sitting at a rather hidden table with the other table, so I didn't have to worry that someone other than my friends would hear what we were talking about. The place we were sitting was also darker, the light source coming in was just from the dance floor.

Red nodded. "Oh, of course."

"I'm not sure either." Paul also asked me to visit him there but I told you I'd think about it. After what happened, plus the injury, we haven't had time to discuss the plan again. Actually I could've shut him out of my house.

The night we call the girls' night is carefree. We spent a few drinks before going down to the dance floor and dancing with other visitors.

Then I thought of Frosty. I left it to my neighbors and I was sure they could take good care of it, but I also realized that I couldn't have left it for much longer. My time with Frosty has been reduced since my hospital stay increased, and now I meet him less and less because of Paul.

Paul also asked me to stay at his house tonight. But I have not given him an answer because I doubt my high brain condition due to alcohol. I'm not drunk, just a little shake. Well, you guys must understand what I mean.

When we were dancing on the dance floor, Stacey pulled me to the toilet. "Hey, slow down, dong." I stumbled a bit, confused as I followed his hasty steps. "Are you okay?"

Stacey took a breath. "Elise and I kissed." He turned to look at me as we stood in a quieter place.

I raised my eyebrows in surprise. "Oh, wow!" But Stacey seemed unhappy at all. "Why?" I asked, a little confused and curious at once. She had always harshly criticized Elise's interest in astrology and zodiac divination, so I didn't think there were any other feelings between them.

"I think I just made a big mistake" He took another breath, deeper. "I doubt even Elise will remember that... I like it, Bee."

"Well, you just need to tell him, right?" mummy supports. "Kissing Elise is no big deal. Tomorrow try to take him to lunch or dinner."

"But he must have taken you along, too."

"Ah, you're right. Too bad, I won't be in town tomorrow." I replied with a grin.

"He?"

"Paul and I were planning to spend the weekend at my father's house to celebrate his birthday" I said. "Tomorrow Camille works, right? So you have time with Elise."

"Oh, okay." I laughed at the nervous Stacey, this is rare. She's the most confident woman I've ever known, and so is Elise.

"You know, I didn't expect you to be so nervous." I said cheerfully teasing him. "Did you change because you kissed Elise?"

"Oh, hush!" He shook his head while laughing and pushed me slowly. "It's because I'm drinking too much."

"I can't believe it, but. all right." Flirtatiously, I blinked my eyes.

Stacey chuckles. "Okay, okay. I knew I had to tell her this right away, but I didn't want to be too happy. Elise and I are different, but I can't stop admiring her."

"Different." I said start, but Stacey quickly cut my words.

"Appeasingly. I hate it when he talks about that stupid, shitty zodiac prophecy, and I think I'm getting used to it."

Oh.. Uh.. I smiled amusedly. "Go back inside, Elise must be looking for you."

At the same time, my phone vibrated from inside the small wallet I was carrying. Because I know Elise so well, I'm sure she sent me a message this time asking for Stacey who suddenly disappeared.

"Okay. Thank you, Bee."

I nodded, hugged him with a smile then pushed him back inside the club. When Stacey disappeared from my sight, I grabbed my phone from my wallet and realized it wasn't Elise who was texting me, it was Paul.

From: Paul: Come back here, yeah..

To: Paul: Sorry, I think I should go back to my house. I can't leave Frosty for much longer.

From: Paul: Then bring him here.

Paul: Don't you like it? Haha.

From: Paul: Yes, but my love for you is bigger than my hate for that devil cat, love.

To: Paul: Tomorrow will be a long time at my father's house. Anyway, I have to pack. So, you slept alone tonight, huh?

From: Paul: Okay, okay. Don't get too drunk, love. Should I have Alfred pick you up?

To: Paul: Ah, stop worrying about me. I went home with Camille, she stayed at my house.

From: Paul: Okay, let me know as soon as you get home.

To: Paul: Ready, Captain!

From: Paul: Correction, Assistant Captain.

To: Paul: 'A ''SOME

From: Paul: 'A 'Auto'S

I rejoined my friends, until the next hour we all decided to go home.

Camille and I drove back to my house in a taxi. Whatever he was at the club, his attitude changed once the effects on his body began to diminish. I knew he was angry at the drama that was going on between him and Aaron, and I'm sure this time it wasn't Camille who was the source of the trouble.

I kept comforting her until the sun was almost setting, until she finally succumbed to her unrest and we managed to close our eyes.
