Amos stretched his hands and carried the clean glass and the bottle of vodka on the table.
He poured the content of the bottle into the glass and returned the bottle to the table. He leaned back and took a sip from the glass.
"You have a bad reputation when it comes to women. As a friend, I will suggest that you pray she doesn't oppose your relationship with her best friend because if she does, I will stand with her decision...,"
"Kay, how could you say that to my face?" Kyle asked, surprised that Amos didn't take his side.
"Why are you so heartless?...,"
"I believe we wouldn't have been discussing this if you had lived your life a bit decently, don't you agree with me?" Amos questioned. He didn't sugarcoat his words just because Kyle was his best friend.
It was especially because Kyle was his best friend that he had advised him to change his reckless lifestyle with women.
He has told him that his lifestyle would get him into serious trouble in the future but he treated his words as gibberish.
Now, look at what has happened.
"Joan is overprotective of Audrey and as your good friend I will advise that you do all it takes to win her over. You will need to forget the fact that we are friends if you fail to do that...,"
"Don't you think you are being too cruel to me for some reason? Did I upset you in any way...,"
"That is your punishment for not keeping your word and also for hurting my woman's feelings," Amos cut in sharply.
He leisurely brought the glass of vodka to his lips and sipped from it.
"Why did I even believe that you would help me out?... I should have known better whose side you were gonna take. You are always biased whenever it comes to her...,"
"And why are you complaining if you already know that?" Amos interrupted, his chin held up.
He didn't feel the least guilty or remorseful about that.
"If you want a partner who will unconditionally take your side in everything then I will advise that you get yourself a good and reliable person," Amos smiled as he took another sip from the glass of vodka in his hand.
"You are rubbing it at my face just because you managed to win her heart over...,"
"At least that is an achievement you are yet to attain no matter how small you think it is," An evil smile crept on Amos' face as he looked at his frustrated best friend's face.
"You are practically bullying me right in front of me. I guess it's time I get Tom and Gina on my side...,"
"Even though you managed to get them on your side, how can they help you when they are very far away?" Amos shrugged his shoulders with pride.
"Also, have you forgotten that Joan is yet to know them?" He smiled when he saw Kyle's expression turn dark.
"I will ask Fin then. He was once her teacher so I believe he will be able to chirp in some words for me...,"
"Didn't your informant also tell you that even though Fin was Joan's lecturer, they weren't on good terms?" Amos crushed whatever hope Kyle had left with this reply of his.
"This is to say you are on your own. So I will advise that you devise a good strategy to win her over," He concluded in a serious tone.
"Ok, I have heard you," Kyle said and adjusted his body well on the couch.
"So can you give me a few tips on how to go about pleasing her?" Kyle finally conceded defeat.
"I mean she is your woman and apart from that you both practically grew up together so you should know this much right?".
Kyle waited for Amos' reply.
Back at Anderson's home, Joanna locks herself in her room for a few hours.
When she couldn't handle the boredom and negative thoughts flowing through her mind every second, she picked up her handbag and left the house.
She was close to the cafe when a car driving at top speed almost ran her over. Had she not jumped out of the car's front it would have been her bloody corpse lying on the cold streets.
"Who the hell is that?" She growled and glared at the red sports car.
At that moment she felt like flipping the car over and killing the passengers in the car but she controlled her hands by clasping them into a fist.
"You managed to escape death one more time. You really have ten lives, I must say," A lady's sarcastic words lingered in Joanna's ears.
The sly smile on the three ladies' faces as they came out of the car made Joanna's heart boil in rage.
"Maybe I do have ten lives like you say but I swear you won't be so lucky to escape death if I strike," Joanna, who was already in a foul mood retorted, her fists still clasped.
"Did someone say something?" Nora mocked. She looked to her right and then to her left pretending not to know that it was Joanna who talked.
"I don't know...," Sophie trailed and moved from the other side of the car to where Joanna stood.
"I think I heard a dog barking. I wonder where the dog is," She said and repeated the same thing Nora did. She looked around like she was searching for something.
"I swear in a few minutes I will make you the dog who barks in pain if you don't get out of my path...,"
"Oh, so you were the dog making noise in my ear huh?" Doris said as she hits Joanna's chest with the tip of her finger.
"Back off, Doris. Don't make me repeat myself...,"
"And what if I don't back off huh?" Doris challenged her. She hits Joanna's chest even harder this time around.
"Tell me aah...," She said provocatively.
If only she knew she was touching th tail of a wounded lioness then she would have kept her hands far away from Joanna's body.
