Zayn POV.
“Where's the lady, Zayn?” He asked impatiently, standing on his feet.
He looks perturbed.
Not only that, but he grabbed my arm and I frowned.
“Just tell me Zayn” He shook me aggressively, and I breathe out.
“Uhm… She is”.
“Hey Zayn” I heard Reid's voice and I turned.
“F**k you man! You kept me waiting,” I complained as he approached us.
“I'm sorry, buddy, that bi**ch really consumed the whole me” he winked at me and I shook my head.
“Anyway, meet Ryder, an old friend. I think I've mentioned him to you before, right?” I reminded, and he nodded curtly as he offered a handshake to Ryder.
“Ryder, this is Reid- we are more than friends,” I told him, and he smiled as they both shook hands.
“It's my pleasure, Reid,” Ryder said.
“Same here bro” Reid replied with smiles.
“Alright, Ryder, we need to leave now,” I announced after the brief pleasantries.
“I hope I can have your contact again, I wish to come to visit soon,” he said, and I nodded.
“No problem,” I told him, and he stretched his cellphone to me; I punched in my digit and gave it back to him.
And with that, we both share a parting hug.
I bade him goodbye and left the pub with Reid following behind.
“You should ride, Reid” I threw the car immobilizer to him and stepped into the passenger seat.
He got behind the wheels and ignited the engine.
“Zayn” Ryder called after a few minutes of driving.
“Are you really going to let go of the goods with Lucas?” Ryder asked.
I fetch my cigarette pack from my jacket pocket and pull a stick.
I lighted and smoke from it.
“Zayn, William is never letting this issue slide, and you know how much Lucas listens to him,” Ryder further said.
I exhaled the smoke through my nostril and flip the cigarette butt out of the window.
I glance at him and caught him staring at me.
I look out from the window and smoke from my cigarette again.
“I'm paying Lucas a visit soon,” I told him and I heard him sigh deeply.
 William POV
“You mean Zayn killed Travis because he didn't reveal the truth?” Lucas asked for the fifth time.
I just sip from my wine and stare into space.
“The gut that kid has got… I mean, how could he?” Lucas said anxiously and I laugh.
“Are you scared of him now?” I asked him.
I watch as he coughed discreetly to cover up his anxious state.
“Come on William, I'm never getting scared of that kid, but you know, his goods are still wrapped around my fingers” he defended.
“And that's where I would get through him,” I told Lucas with a smirk lingering on my lips.
He furrowed his brows and I nodded.
“He's gonna regret messing with someone like me,” I mumbled as I sip my wine slowly.
 Reid POV
“You really want to sleepover?” Zayn asked for the fifth time, and I rolled my eyes this time around.
“What's up with you, Zayn? It's not my first of spending the night, so what's your headache?” I furrowed my brows at him and he scoffed.
I watch him as he pulled his jacket and hung it on his shoulder.
He brushed his arm against mine and walked past me.
“Seriously Zayn?” I said behind him as I watch him ascend the stairs.
“You're not sleeping in my bed, are you?” I heard him say without turning to me.
Yeah, true.
I rolled my eyes and climbed the stairs.
I trailed my eyes behind Zayn and watched him step into his room.
Which of these doors could be her door room? I thought, standing in the middle of the hallway with my eyes scanning everywhere.
I heard a door creaked open; I looked in the direction and found Zayn in the doorway staring at me with a hand in his pocket.
I rake a hand through my hair and smile at him.
“Go to bed Reid” he instructed sternly, and I nodded.
“Of course, you go first,” I told him.
He shot me one of his dangerous looks.
Jeez!
I swallowed and grabbed the doorknob to my room.
I glance back and saw him still watching me, I rolled my eyes at him and shut the door behind me.
“I really need to talk to the girl,” I muttered as I unbuckle my belt and tossed it somewhere.
 Flora POV
“Good morning ma'am” I greeted Mrs. Rosaline, the housekeeper.
I stood behind her in the kitchen, and she turned to me.
“Good morning, Flora, how was your night?” She asked in her loving tone and I smile.
“It was awesome” I replied.
She nodded and turned to the gas cooker.
These past days had been so good- Mrs. Rosaline now comes four times a week.
All thanks to her, I don't feel the boredom anymore unlike before.
"Mrs. Rosaline” I called- standing next to her as I watch her stir the content in the pan.
“Uhm… Can you teach me how to cook?” I asked her, bringing my finger to my lips. 
I could feel her eyes on me, and I turned to her when I heard her smile.
So lovely.
“Of course Flora, anytime,” she said, and I squealed happily.
“Thanks, Mrs. Rosaline…so where do I start from?” I asked her impatiently, and she let out a small laugh.
“I'm done with today's cook, Flora but don't worry, till tomorrow,” she said, and I pouted my lips.
“Okay… You should carry that coffee tray to the dining, let's start with that,” she instructed friendly.
I nodded curtly and carry the tray carefully.
“Be careful, dear” She said behind me.
I got to the dining and saw Zayn and his friend sitting next to each other.
They both turned to me and I almost tremble on my feet with the tray in my hand.
Gosh!
They should take their eyes off me.
And it was as if Zayn heard my thought, he looked away immediately.
But his friend?
I got to the table and carefully place the tray on it.
"Good morning," I murmured.
“How was your night, pretty?" His friend asked and I smile lightly.
“It was good… Thank you,” I replied to him and turned to leave.
“You should sit here,” he told me- pointing a finger to a chair across him.
 I look at Zayn and saw him staring at whatever.
“Don't worry, Mrs. Rosaline can handle it” he added, and I reluctantly dragged a chair backward and sit down.
“I'm Reid, and you?” He introduced.
“My name is Flora,” I replied, and he shot me a sweet smile.
I must confess Reid is one cute guy as well but not compared to Zayn, though.
“Wow. You are as pretty as the Flora flower itself,” he complimented and my cheeks flamed.
“Hurry Mrs. Rosaline” Zayn said loudly from the dining. 
“Right away Zayn” We heard Mrs. Rosaline's voice from the kitchen.
 Reid and I turned to Zayn, and he raised his brows at us.
“So, Flora, how did you come across with Zayn?” Reid further asked.
“Enough of this Reid” Zayn yelled, and I flinched a little on my seat and shut my eyes tightly.
“What's wrong with you, Zayn? You couldn't provide a reasonable answer when I'd asked who she is, and now you are getting worked up because I decided to ask her myself?” Reid also yelled at him.
Oh, my…
“Suit yourself then” Zayn stood to his feet and marched out of the dining room.
I watch as Reid breathes out and turns to me.
“Don't pay attention to that, Flora” he said with a smile.
Mrs. Rosaline came out of the kitchen with another tray in her hand.
She placed the tray on the table and I smile broadly when the aroma hit my nostril.
I look up and met Reid gazed on my face.
I smile at him and look away timidly.
 “Enjoy your meal,” she said and turned to leave.
I guess she doesn't notice Zayn's absence.
I look in the direction he passed through and sighed softly.
So grumpy.
