Leap OF Fate

Justin kept turning and tossing on his bed. Unable to catch sleep, he stood up and walked out of the balcony. He took deep several breaths. Today’s events got out of his control. Who would have thought that his brother will barge into his office and reveal their relationship to Serene?

He pinched his glabella, then let out a sneer. And what the fuck is up with his brother-in-law? Why does he seem to want to get close to his ex-girlfriend again?

He hated the way he called her. “Shen…” he imitated the familiar way Bryan addressed Serene. It’s like a code name that they share. The insinuated intimacy added fuel to his irritation.

Then he recalled the mocking comment Serene made when Chester addressed Bryan.

“Dear? Really? Can’t you be more original?”

Is that what they called each other? The more he thought about the previous day's events, the tighter his chest became.

“Fuck,” he loudly cursed. He took his phone and dialed a number. “Where are you?” he immediately asked, not even bothering to say a greeting. “Got it, wait for me.”

He quickly changed his clothes and drove to the address he received.

It was one of the Hyacinth City’s high-end bars. He got out of his car and gave his key to the valet. With confident steps he walked in the bar, giving no care to the ogling eyes of those he passed by. After a short while, he found the person he’s looking for.
