Chapter 36- Pizza's here!

I heard Harley chuckle next to me.

Harley. Sophia. Celeste.

They were all here. In one room. Should I tell them about Hong Kong?

What if they hate me? What if they lock me in the bathroom and force me to sleep there? What if they feed me to the French chef that Harley just pissed off? I didn't get the chance to see him but judging his voice it seems like he'd enjoy deep-fried 22 year olds.

I shuddered at that thought.

I'd been so enveloped in my own thoughts that I didn't even notice all three girls staring at me expectantly until Harley cleared her throat dramatically.

"What?" I asked the moment I lifted my head up.

"Spit it out." Celeste demanded while threatening me with Sophia's hair brush.

Now on a normal basis, a hairbrush wouldn't seem that threatening. But that's simply because you've never seen Celeste before.

Cuz from where I was standing, it seemed like that hairbrush could do some serious damage that would preferably be avoided.

"Spit what out?" I asked them, playing the fool.

"Whatever it is you're dying to tell us."

My head snapped towards the source of the voice. Which was the ever sarcastic and smug face of Harley Anderson.

I didn't respond so Harley took that as a chance to evaluate her statement.

"You're always so deep in thought. And it looks like your having a civil war with yourself. It's obvious you have something to tell us not clearly, you need some encouragement."

Harley looked directly at me.

"So please do tell us my dahling. We're all ears."

Harley said with a British accent. The accent didn't suit her but she sounded so funny I couldn't even bring myself to laugh.

"Well, you know how my boss is always pushing me to do stuff and do my best?"

Harley thought about it for a moment.

"Well no not really. But go on."

"Well in a couple of weeks, he's sending me to HongKong."

I paused, waiting for their reaction. Much to my surprise, their faces remained blank.

"And?"

Sophia asked.

"And I'll be gone for at least a month since were stopping in London."

I made sure to say it slowly and clearly so they could let it sink in.

"Oh yeah, I already know about that."

My eyes widened at what Harley had just said.

"WHAT?"

She rolled her eyes.

"You know you're not very good at hiding stuff, it's a miracle you've gotten this far in the Robin revenge business. I mean you've got a post-it note on your wall saying HongKong in two weeks. How will I tell the girls? "

I blinked and looked at Sophia and Celeste.

"Did you know about this?"

Celeste shrugged.
