"This suit is worth $10million and it's definitely going to steal the show." Raphael announced."It is very tempting, but I think I'm going to stick with the suit I wore to Melissa's wedding." Ethan said, waving his hand to dismiss the clothes."I'm not going to allow you to do that. This is your very first reunion since you left college. It's time to show them that you're no longer the Ethan that they could walk over, just like they did, back in the day." Raphael stated with determination.Ethan let out an exasperated sigh."I'm not going there to reveal my real identity to them, but I also don't want to go there looking like the laughingstock I once was."Tony and Raphael began smiling like they had hit the jackpot with convincing Ethan to wear the suit they got for him."I'll only wear the suit on one condition." Ethan announced.Tony and Raphael almost facepalmed themselves before they asked,"What's that?""I can see Watson's family emblem embroidered on the arm of the blazer. Ge
"Melissa!!!" Jason yelled from downstairs."Yes!!!" Melissa yelled in response."We should be on our way. We're going to be late,” Jason retorted.“For fucks sake! You can't go anywhere with women, without them dragging you hours behind time. Fuck!” Jason muttered to himself under his breath.“I'm coming, urggh! How do I do look?” Melissa asked Jason, as she walked down the stairs.“You look fine, can we go now?” Jason asked without even sparing her a glance.He took his keys from the table and walked out.“Wait for me” Melissa echoed, as she held the hem of her gown in her hand and skipped out, right behind Jason.Jason got into the car as he yelled out, "Get over here! I've waited for you to bathe, dress up and put on make-up and now, I'm waiting for you to get into the car”.Melissa was stunned at Jason's mean behavior towards her, she walked to the car, opened the door for herself and got in.“You couldn't even open the door for me or tell me how nice my dress is. You didn't even
Everyone stood in small groups as they watched the army green mercedes- Maybach s-class slowly make the U-turn and roll up to the entrance of the building. Hailey and Melissa’s little group moved closer to the entrance for a better look.Whispers flew from corner to corner as everyone tried to guess who it was that was rich enough to attend a gathering like this in the latest maybach.“I wonder who it is,” Hailey wrapped her hand around Melissa’s upper arm. The maybach sat in silence. The driver's door swung open and Chris stepped out of the driver's seat. He straightened his black tux and walked around the car to the passenger door behind. With a deep breath, he pulled open the passenger door. Silence suddenly fell on the onlookers as they watched in copious anticipation.A sleek black cunningham brogue lace up suddenly appeared beneath the door of the car.Melissa eyed the $20,000 shoe. “I’m almost breathless! Can this mystery man just stop hiding behind the light and show his
Jason noticed Melissa's eyes were staring daggers at him and he left the lady he was dancing with, to give Melissa some attention.He hugged her and with the stench of alcohol in his mouth, he screamed amidst the music playing in the background, “Hey babe! You remember her from highschool?”Melissa was disgusted by his behavior and the alcohol he poured from his breath right into her nostrils, but with a condescending look she replied, “Yes, your hooker girl back in the day. How could I forget?”Melissa turned to the lady and asked,” Charlene is it?”“Yes it is. And I don't see myself as a ‘hooker girl’. We're just two people who love to unwind and party. You should try it sometimes” Charlene replied.Charlene turned to Jason with a disappointed look as she held his face “Gotta go now. Your girl is still a party pooper, even if she's with you now. See you later”.Charlene walked away right after slipping her number written on a paper inside Jason's pocket.Frustrated and let down, Jas
"Jack, you finally made it. Took you long enough." Ethan said as he returned to Sarah's side and they noticed Jack walk in.Jack walked happily with his arm candy towards Ethan as he greeted and hugged both Sarah and Ethan.“Took you long enough” Sarah said to Jack with her eyes staring at the lady beside Jack.“It's not what you think guys” Jack said as soon as he noticed Ethan and Sarah staring suspiciously.“Ethan and Sarah, this is Lydia. And Lydia dear, these are my friends, Sarah and Ethan” Jack continued.Lydia walked over to hug Ethan and Sarah with her auspicious smile and they smiled back at her.“So, what's the story with you two? Are you dating or?” Sarah started with an expectant look for a continuation.Lydia and Jack laughed as Ethan and Sarah stared confusingly then Lydia spoke up, “Oh no, we're not dating. We are childhood friends and since you both came as a pair, he asked me to join him and get a chance to meet his friends and I couldn't say no. He has those puppy e
"You deserved that." Sarah spat at Ted before walking away with Ethan, Jack and Lydia."But how did that just happen? I mean how did Ted lose everything in one swift move." Lydia asked with curiosity written all over her features."They probably found out that instead of using the original materials that were supposed to be used for the brand, Ted got greedy and used substandard materials instead." Jack tried explaining"Plus, I had everything streamed live, so that must've dealt the final blow to his bullshit." Ethan smiled mischievously, wiggling his phone in his hand."Thanks man for having my back." "Hey, hey, hey, you would do the same for me."Jack and Ethan bro-hugged before Lydia broke the bonding moment and said,"Enough with all the mushy mushy. I heard there's supposed to be a homecoming king and queen at this reunion. Something like back in the days in highschool and college.""Yeah, I heard that too, but I'm not interested. Are you?" Sarah threw the question to Lydia."I
"Enough of the scrawny looks on our faces. They would think they had an effect on us if we keep on like this." Lydia sighed, as she rubbed Jack's back."She's right. We can't keep giving them that satisfaction." Ethan said to the group."What are we doing standing around here? Let's get the dance floor lit." Sarah said, trying to lift the mood and turn their frowns to a smile.Sarah pulled Ethan to the dance floor with her and soon enough, Jack and Lydia joined them.While on the dance floor, two of their colleagues begun whispering,"I heard Ethan and Sarah want to run for homecoming king and queen against Melissa and Jason.""Ethan and Sarah are just wannabees. They would never match up to Melissa and Jason.""Right!!! I wonder what I was thinking when I almost walked over to Ethan to talk to him when he walked in here looking like some charming prince.""You forgot that he was the pauper that was kissing Melissa's ass back in the day.""Hahaha.." Both of them burst out laughing."I
“Woah! The energy here is off the roof!!!” the compere said with a smile, trying to calm everyone and make it look like it was part of an act.“Hand over what is mine, you cheating slut!” Melissa screamed, as she rushed towards Sarah but was stopped by the compere.Sarah held onto Ethan's arm tightly like a little child who had just seen a ghost.“This year's reunion sure is creative! I like this. Having a paid actress to fight for the crown, showing the importance of the crown in one's life. Please let's give it up for the organizers of this year's reunion.” the compere said, while signaling the security nervously.The crowd laughed so hard at what the compere just said and Melissa kept on hearing murmurs from the crowd,“She's so miserable”“She’s like an 80 year old lady seeking validation from a children's pageantry. It's so sad”“What a sore loser”“I wouldn't want to be her”Melissa pulled on her hair as she knelt on stage in frustration and screamed out,“You all are nothing in
