Chapter 26 - Visiting Acrosoft

Jake was fully engrossed working on his new project after the shareholders meeting. He was really fascinated in kicking it off as soon as possible. He had been confident in himself to successfully convince the shareholders, but he still felt extremely happy that he did at just one sitting.

Acrosoft has always been fully focused on other sofwares projects far more different from his and he knew how tricky initiating a new and risky idea could be, and even convincing the shareholders to buy into the idea was on a different level. But this was Jake Beau.

His capability as the 'king of tech' was undeniable.

Jake was preparing for a meeting with the design and programming department which will be held the next morning, when his secretary came knocking.

"Sir, you have a call" Jake's secretary, Patrick informed him, as he passed his phone which he had handed over to him before the meeting.

Jake smiled when he saw the conference call between his crazy friends.

"If it isn't Mikey, Ricky, Dicky and Dan" He said with a broad smile as soon as he answered the call.

"It's Nicky, Ricky, Dicky and Dawn man! How many times do I have to correct you?!" Rick corrected in mock anger not seeing the humour in Jake's words.

"And you're the dicky one Jake, and we should probably get you a Dawn to play with" Mike said teasefully.

"Can you guys not always talk about women" Daniel answered from his line, making the others roll their eyes.

"Because your father forced you into getting married does not mean you always have to be a kill joy. How bor-ish" Mike replied while the others laughed.

"Where's Phil?" Jake suddenly asked. He realized it was just the four of them.

"Do you have to ask about him?" Mike asked frowning lightly.

"Why? What has he done again?" Jake asked amusedly when he heard Mike's whining tone.

"That traitor is busy chasing after some Brazilian girl's ass across the country, alone!. We were supposed to that together!" Mike said with a hurtful tone like he has been betrayed by his lover. Jake couldn't help but laugh at him.

Jake, Mike, Rick, phil and Daniel has been friends for years. They were the typical rich brats who love parties and women. They spend money and live just for fun. It wasn't until Jake travelled after his father's death and Daniel was forcefully married that the group of 5 began to have less fun together.

"So Jake Beau, why did you return without informing us? You really messed up man. We would have welcomed you in a grand style" Rick said.

"Yeah, you messed up man. Why would you sneak in without telling us?" Mike added feigning annoyance.

"And by a grand style you mean, with women?" Daniel asked questioningly as he cocked a brow.

"Can someone please tell me why we're still rolling with this sadly married man. I guess married life is too boring for you and you are just looking for who to vent on right? Just tell me you miss the hot banging bodies of those pretty ladies, but your wife got you under lock and key" Mike teased Daniel, making him narrow his brows frustratedly. He would really snap Mike's neck if he was within reach.

"Shut the fuck up man" Daniel said playfully. He had no one to blame, but his father for getting him married too soon.

"I see you rich brats have all day to waste doing nothing, but I've got a job to do" Jake said dismissively.

"Come on man, don't be a bore. Come let's hang out. It's closing hours. We've got to chill together" Rick said.

"Yeah let's do that. The last time we hanged out together was when we visited you and that was 2 months ago. Now you're back, and I've got some clean ass chicks to make you relax" Mike added.

"I think I'm gonna pass" Daniel declared.

"We'd be happy to miss you man. Go focus on your wife and I hope she pops out some babies soon. Then your life can officially become a living hell. Just so you know, you're walking towards depression" Mike told Daniel, who just ignored him. Mike had a thing for always opposing Daniel since he got married. He couldn't believe Daniel would betray them, and go get himself a wife.

"I don't think I can make it" Jake said in a serious tone. He still had alot of things to finish at the office.

"Shut up! Just be there. See it as your home coming party. You know the usual and please don't bring Blake along. I can't handle that boy's chastity" Daniel added making them laugh except Jake who chuckled.

"That's my brother. And I love his chaste ass. He can't be a lothario like you"

"Well said ring leader" Rick said sarcatically. "See you guys soon" Rick said before disconnecting his line.

"See you later man" Mike commented.

"Welcome back Jake" Rick added.

"Thanks" Jake replied before ending the call. He sighed as he kneaded his temples. It seems something's are unavoidable, and one of those things are hanging out when you have a bunch of crazy friends.

Jade was completely burnt out after work. All she needed right now was rest and some good food. She was about logging out of the company's system when her phone started ringing. She rummaged through her bag to find it. She smiled to herself when she saw it was Amy on the line.

"Amy Walker, this better be a good call" She said with a small smile.

"I don't know what you mean by good call, but I wanted to ask you if you are interested in eating out" Amy said.

"I can really use some food right now. So what are we eating?" Jade asked as she picked up her bag and started walking out of the office.

"Anything at all" Amy said.

"Well I've been craving for some Nacho's and banana split. And I also want to get Kelvin some Meat lovers pizza"

"Alright I'll be at your company soon"

"I was thinking we could eat at Eddy's. They got the best Nachos and meat lover's pizza. So I guess I'll be the one to come over since it's just a few blocks from your company" Jade suggested.

"Alright, call me when you get here"

"Sure" Jade said before disconnecting the call.. It seems she has to make her way to Acrosoft.
