Iris
~~~"Thank you, Rhys," I smile slightly. I never thought he'd compliment me. Ever. He doesn't say anything, he doesn't look at me either. Just silence between us.
"So... Tell me about yourself," I say trying to break the silence. "Like?" he says tilting his head back. "Anything," I say with a kind smile.
"Well I'm a CEO," he says coldly. "So you're a millionaire?" I ask. "Moonlight, you can't be serious. I'm a fucking billionaire," he says. Wow.
"Why do you even call me Moonlight?" I ask. That's literally the weirdest nickname anyone has ever given me. "None of your business," he shrugs. He's so irritating.
"You already know my profession," I say. "Is your sister the only family you have?" he asks. "Well both my parents passed away so..." I reply. He nods. "How about you?" I ask. He stays silent. At this point you can't even hear him breathe.
"By the way, how old are you?" I ask trying to change the topic. "26, you?" he replies. "I'm 24." I say. We talk for about 10 more minutes.
He gets up from the bench. "Come on lets go, I'll drop you home," he says arrogantly. I mean of course he has to drop me home, he's the one that brought me here. I get
into the car."Tomorrow I won't be able to come for you. I have a busy schedule," he says. I nod not feeling like saying anything. "Can I choose where we go next time?" I ask.
"No," he replies. He's so goddamn annoying. 48 minutes later we reach my home. "Byee Rhys," I say as I exit the car. All he does is glare at me not bothering to respond. Asshole.
I go into the house to find Avery sitting on the couch looking rather stressed. "Girl, what's wrong?" I ask. "Iris, our bank account is literally empty. I don't know how. But we don't have any money left," Avery says in a stressed tone.
"How though, I had at least $10 000 in there," I say. Avery shrugs. I go into the kitchen and make myself a cup of green tea. I sigh. It's been a long day.
