Sensational Husband
The Seventy Five
“I will have a small party with my college friends,” Alexa told Azlan as she sat at one of the tables of a cafe.
“Then we split the table, I'm afraid it will interfere with your privacy.”
“Neither! I didn't say your presence would interfere with our privacy.”
“Then, do I have to sit down join you guys?”
“Sure.” Alexa sat on one of the chairs and put her bag on the table. “I've booked this table before. Sit!” Alexa pointed at the seat in front of her with her chin.
Azlan looked reluctant, but then he sat down as well.
“I made a deal with papa here, and he promised to see me, we will celebrate my birthday privately here,” Alexa said. “I've booked a place for me and papa later.”
“If the lady celebrates her birthday here with Mr. Joan, what about the ladies' friends later? Aren't they also going to eat with the lady here? That means it is not private because there are other people besides Mr. Joan.”
“I'll make a five o'clock appointment, and now is my time with my friends. I set scedhule.”
“Didn't Mr Joan say he was busy and there was no time today?” Azlan recalled the words of Mr. Joan who had rejected Alexa's offer for a birthday celebration.
“Yes. But I talked to Papa again about this, and he changed his mind. He'll take his time for me.”
Azlan nodded.
Not long after a servant arrived.
Azlan glanced at the waiter for a while then asked Alexa, “We wait for your friends to come first new food order right?”
“No need, we order now. They are coming soon too.”
“OK. I'm Chicken katsu! Drinking Vietnamese iced coffee,” Azlan messages to the restaurant waiter while pointing to the menu.
“Sama,” replied Alexa as the waiter's gaze was fixed on her and the waiter immediately left.
Azlan raised an eyebrow hearing Alexa ordering food and drink exactly the same as her order.
They waited for a while for a waiter to show up presenting an order that was still hot.
Alexa crossed her legs, put her glasses over her head.
Before long a man and two women appear to approach the table inhabited by Alexa and Azlan.
“Halo!” Alexa waved at the three humans who came.
“Halo!” a girl replies to Alexa. She kisses Alexa's left and right cheeks, another girl also does the same.
A man in a black shirt did not stay still, he also kissed Alexa's right left cheek.
Then they sat in the remaining seats. To the right left of Azlan, sat two beautiful girls, while the seat to the right of Alexa was occupied by her male friend.
“Known this Azlan!” Alexa introduces Azlan to her friends. “She's papaku employee.”
Azlan gave a brief nod looking at those unfamiliar faces, greeted with a wide smile by the three.
“This is Lia, this is Nesa, and this is Marvel,” says Alexa introduced three of her friends to Azlan. Azlan nodded back.
Soon a servant appeared again. All three of Alexa's friends order food and are taken in by the waiter. It didn't take long for the waiter to serve the dish. Then he started eating food.
“Lo is getting beautiful, Alexa. I barely recognize your face,” said Marvel as he stared at Alexa's face intensely and filled with admiration.
“Oh yes? Here's what Alexa is now.” Alexa laughed crisply, how she looked cheerful and happy.
“Gue will be at home if you marry elo.”
Lia and Nesa smiled at Marvel's statement.
Azlan turned his gaze to his plate. Suddenly his appetite was wiped out in an instant. Is it possible that his appetite was lost just because he saw Alexa smile when praised by men?
