Chapter 18: Side Story-02
RUTH
I never actually thought that I would meet my new addiction like this. Well, today's encounter has both good news and bad news. The good news is I don't have to go around and fish him out and the bad news is he is Erwin's best friend.
Well it's not like I care about that at all. All I care about is whether he is or not involved in that incident. I just want to know if he is a scum just like his best friend. If he is then he will have a tough time with me and if he is not then he is just gonna play with me until I am satisfied with him.
"Hey, why did you leave your friend's side?" I approach John who is helping himself to get a drink, when he sees me he grabs a glass for me too.
"Well, you see, Erwin is more than capable in handling these kinds of situations. And other than that," He passes me the glass of wine, "For some reason, I don't like Leo's family that much." He shifts nervously on his feet.
"Well, me too." I grin, "I don't like his family all that much, either."
"Huh? Why?" A look of surprise flashes into those pitch black eyes, "Aren't you his best friend?"
"Even if I am, it doesn't necessarily mean that I have to like his family members too." I drawl lazily, "They are all scums. Except for Jules, Leon and Tina, I guess."
"Oh, and who are they?" Leo asks, curiosity gleaming in his eyes that are blacker than the night sky.
"Jules and Leon are his big brothers." I patiently explains to him, "Jules is three years and Leon is four years older than him. And Tina is his sister-in-law."
"So, one of his brothers is married?" John asks further.
