Two Worlds Apart

Chapter 14

Okay so as I suspected......the car ride was very awkward

I sat very still and very quietly in the passenger sit while Eric drove

I was soooo hungry

As if on que, my stomach grumbled. I opened my mouth but couldn't say anything

I looked at Eric from the corner of my eye and a small smirk had formed on his face

God, that was so embarrassing!!

I sat there like nothing happened and he took a few turns and stopped in front of a restaurant

"No no no, please take me home, I'm alright, I'm not hungry" I immediately told him

He unbuckled his seat belt and turned to me

"I never said I was buying you food, did i?"

Ouch

My lips parted but I couldn't even say anything

Again I say, ouch

He opened his car door and stepped out

I didn't move, I sat quietly on my seat but that was before he opened my car door from outside

"Get down" he said with a slight chuckle

I blinked a few times "But I thought...." he cuts me off

"I was kidding, c'mon" he gestured for me to get out

I hesitated but eventually got out

We walked into the restaurant and my eyes almost popped out

It was beautiful!!

"Oh wow" I whispered

It was a huge elegant looking restaurant with a dark themed decor. It was painted with brown but seemed to have a sort of gold dustings on some specific places of the wall. It had long and large red curtains covering the windows, a golden chandelier hanging on the very very high roof. There were a lot of chairs and tables with beautiful flower vases on some of them and the rest had another type of decoration with black table cloths to add to that dark theme

It wasn't too crowded but there were people here

Wealthy looking people may I add

"Mr Martinez" the man at the desk said with delight

"It's nice to see you again Alfred" he said with a slight smile

Seems like he's a regular here

"It's a pleasure to have you here again? A table?"

"Yes actually but can I get a vip, she's not really a fan of crowds" he gestured to me

When did he notice that?

The man turned to looked at me and I gave a little bow and he smiled at me

"Sure"

He leads us through the hall and towards a pair of stairs. We went up the stairs and I was met with another glorious sight.

It was the VIP room.

There was some sort of barricade blocking people out with two men standing outside it, they unhooked the ropes and we were led in. This part looked totally different, it was as large as down stairs and as beautiful and decorated too but there was a huge glass window at the front that had a miraculous view. They led us to one of the tables beside the window and I could see the clear and beautiful sky and the beautiful streets of LA

Everything was painted in white and so where the colours of the table cloths. Downstairs was beautiful with the whole dark theme and everything, but here seemed so quite and so peaceful
