Chapter 36: In Charge
Rory
I knew that I might as well walk into a Den of lions right now because I didn’t need anyone to tell me that I was about to start playing with fire right now.
The smartest thing to do is to actually sit down and come up with an actual plan, and for this to work like I was currently envisioning in my head, then I’d have to carefully formulate the plan from top to bottom. That’s impossible to do right now with me standing outside Raya’s apartment while her husband was practically drinking me up with his eyes in a way that was making me feel extremely creeped out.
I ended up stepping away from him, and then I held a hand out when he tried stepping closer to me.
"Wait. We can’t do anything outside here, remember?" I told him and it was like that was when it registered in his head that we are currently in public where anyone could see him practically drooling over me. He cleared his throat and put in some distance between us.
"Call me an Uber." I informed him after a few moments and he furrowed his brows, appearing confused.
"I need an Uber that would take me to my next destination." I explained and he frowned.
"Where’s that?" He asked and I resisted the urge to roll my eyes.
"To a hotel, because, you know, I don’t have a place to stay any longer, thanks to you."
