Chapter 507 Joanna Showed Up At Last



"I don't think I will ever forgive you if you make me ruin my daughter's birthday party so please let's stop right here aah?" Adhara added.

Although her words sounded like a request, anyone who listened to it would think otherwise.

As this was going on, a lady in a white flowing off-shoulder lace dress surrounded by three ladies was seen laughing at her friend's jokes.

She was aware of the little commotion taking place at her family's table but pretended not to.

She has seen this many times to let such an argument ruin her mood or day.

As she talked and listened to her friends' silly jokes, anyone who saw her would at first glance assume she was immersed in the conversation.

It was only the attentive one who would notice how she often stole glances at a particular corner of the hall.

With his cell phone taken away and no partner to hang out with Anthony roamed the enormous hall in search of something to keep him busy but he couldn't find anything.

With no phone to play with and no one to talk to, Anthony got bored to death but he couldn't sneak away knowing very well what fate awaits him if he does that.

Thirty minutes passed and Joanna was still nowhere to be found at the party. Not even her shadow could be spotted.

Just then Anthony who sat in a corner alone walked up to Laura whose company were her friends.

"Laura, I need to use the restroom," he whispered into her ears.

His eyebrows creased the moment he saw Laura's friends chuckle while staring at him.

"Yes, and so what?" Laura sneered without even sparing him a glance.

"Mum and Grandma said I shouldn't leave the hall by myself. They said I should be escorted by an adult...,"

"And do I look that idle to you that I would escort you to the restroom?" Laura snapped. The four girls Laura shared the table with cackled following Laura's statement.

"Tony, you are a big boy already. You can use the restroom just fine so why would you what your sister to escort you?" Eunice, the girl in a green shimmering long dress quizzed.

"It's crowded here. Mum is afraid I might run into bad people...,"

"But you are not a kid anymore and you are smart so why would you run into bad people huh?" Eva butts in, to the annoyance of Anthony who never liked her in the first place.

"Do I need to be dumb to get an adult's protection?" Anthony demanded.

"What did you just say to her?" Laura hissed. She grabbed his hand and pulled him closer.

"I said I would find the restroom myself," Anthony lied without batting an eyelid.

"Get your ass away from here before I forget where we are and give you a good spanking," Laura threatened and instantly released Anthony's hand.

Anthony stomped away without sparing them a second glance.

"I have always thought your little brother was cute and hardly talks but I never knew he...,"

"Of course he is cute but that is only when he keeps his mouth shut," Laura mumbled. 

She tilted her head and peered in the direction of the boy in a blue suit who was seen talking to a waiter.

"Thank you," Anthony muttered and immediately followed the direction the waiter had pointed at not too long ago.

With the waiter's guidelines, Anthony didn't have trouble locating the restroom. But the choking smell of cigarettes and alcohol coupled with the unholy scenes he met inside the men's restroom made him take to his heels.

Anthony stopped after he reached an open space. He removed his right hand shielding his nose and mouth and coughed out loud.

WOOF! WOOF!

He cough a few more times and exhaled deeply.

"I am gonna wet myself if I don't use the restroom. What will I do?" Anthony lamented. At that moment he remembered his Joanna who had always made such that such a thing didn't happen whenever she was around.

On some occasions, he was even the one who always reminded her that he was no longer a baby but she always insisted.

She follows him to the restroom anytime he wanted to without any complaint. She often checks the restroom and made sure it was safe before she lets him in.

"I wish Big Sis was here," He murmured while looking up at the clear sky.

"And does your Big Sis resides in the sky ugh?" A lady's cool voice interrupted Anthony's thoughts.

The familiar voice made Anthony spin. And behold Joanna was standing behind him.

"Big Sis!" Anthony exclaimed with widened eyes. At that moment he thought she was a piece of his imagination.

"I can't believe you missed me so much to the point that you made a wish...," Anthony ran into her arms. He wrapped his hands around the neck of the lady who had bent just in time to welcome his embrace.

Joanna who was fooling around with him was a bit taken aback by his actions.

"What happened?" Joanna asked. She raised her right hand and pats his well-styled hair. 

She was careful enough with her hand movements so that she doesn't mess his hair up.

"Did anyone bully you while I was not around huh?" She asked, her left hand moving on his back.

"You know you can tell Big Sis about this. I promise I will make sure that person pays for bullying my little rice ball," She said to the boy whose grip remained firm around her neck.

"Also, what were you doing outside alone? What about...,"

"I need to use the restroom, Big Sis," He blurted and pulled away from her. "I am afraid I will wet myself if I wait longer," He confessed, his right hand stylishly covering the space between his legs.

"Hey, why didn't you say that earlier?" Joanna scolded. She jumped to her feet, grabbed his left hand and led him into the building.

"There is a restroom beside the hall so why didn't you make use of that?" Joanna asked. She narrowed her eyebrows when Anthony suddenly halted.

"What...,"

"The restroom there is no good. Can we use another one?" He asked, his grip on her hand becoming tighter.

"The restroom is no good?" Joanna repeated his words.

....
