23 Chapter
Vladimir
Lina is getting on my nerves. Vlad’s right, it’s time to stop messing with her. I offered to help her and she refused. Stubborn bitch! And him? He’s an asshole, too. He flew in and didn’t tell me anything. I would have met him and helped him with the luggage. That’s all right, we’ll fix it now. I got a lot of stuff at the store, alcohol too. We’re not gonna get away with one bottle of whiskey. I am too angry, and from the looks of it, my friend is in a bad mood too.
I knock on the door, Vlad opens it and meets me at the threshold.
” Hi, Vov,” he shakes my hand while the other takes away a huge bag.
” You’re an asshole.”
” Take off your clothes first, and then you can tell me off,” my friend says right away and heads to the kitchen.
” It’s been a lousy day today.”
” You’ve been doing that a lot lately.”
“All because of that bitch.”
“Vov, you need a distraction from everything.”
” I’ll get drunk and take my mind off it. Do you mind if I stay overnight at your place? We’ll go to work together.”
“You’re still asking. No, of course not.”
“Why are you so sad?” I can tell there’s something wrong with Vlad.
“There’s nothing wrong. I’m just not in the mood. I wanted to get back as soon as possible, but I realize I’m not happy with the cold in Moscow. I want to go back to summer.”
“Yeah, you’re right. And I want to go somewhere for New Year’s Eve. Maybe the two of us could do it?”
“Are you serious?” I had already had time to undress, you know, take off my outerwear, and sat down at the table in the kitchen while Vlad took out the contents of the bags.
“Quite seriously. That’s right, after the New Year’s Eve party we’ll do it. First I want to see Lina’s fiancé.”
“She’s making it up. She doesn’t have one. We’ve been over this. What should I make?
“I don’t know. There’s a lot of stuff in there. Even frozen pizza. Just put it in the oven and heat it up. ”
“We could order fresh pizza. How do you feel about that?”
How do I feel about ordering pizza? Great. Especially since I know a very interesting delivery company. What’s Lena’s friend’s name? I think it’s Masha. That’s right, that’s the one she wanted me to meet. I immediately take my iPhone in my hands and look for the delivery number of “HOT FOOD” in my contacts.
“Good evening. We’re so glad you called HOT FOOD.”
“Hi. I would like to order a large seafood pizza and another with pepperoni.”
“Anything else?”- The operator asks politely.
“Yes, you have a girl named Maria. Let her make the delivery, if that’s all right with you. Is that possible?”
“Yes, of course. She’s the one who’s assigned to that area of town, and you’re lucky that it’s her shift today. Cash or credit card?”
“Cash”.
” Okay. (Chuckles) Your order will be ready within an hour and it won’t take more than fifteen minutes for delivery. Good luck to you,” the operator says goodbye and hangs up.
” Masha? Who is Masha? ” Vlad is curious.
“Lina’s girlfriend.”NôvelDrama.Org: owner of this content.
“Is there something I don’t know? Spit it out.”
“Lina wanted to set me up with her. It was that night that Masha didn’t show up, and Lina and I had a connection. How do you mean, a connection? A crazy night of passionate sex.”
” Is Masha beautiful?”
“We all have our own opinions and tastes. You know that expression about tastes don’t argue?”
” I know, Bov. But why do you want to see her?”
“I need to know something and offer something.”
“Vladimir Maksimovich, you’re very predictable as usual.”
“Let’s have a drink, – I offer him and take the glasses out of the cabinet.”
“Come on, I feel that the evening with you is going to be very amusing.”
“Trust me, she’s hot.”
” No, I’ll pass.”
“Let’s not get ahead of ourselves, Vlad. Here’s to us,” I raise the glass I’ve already poured and make a toast.”
