I still could not believe Julia found me tattered on the middle east restaurant patio. But now, she even led me to her chamber. Julia then dragged me into her private room. She was no longer sob, but her heart filled with flowers.
In Julia's room, I could see the glowing lights dimly. But, I could still look at Julia, who looks beautiful wearing only a red polka-dotted negligee. I remembered her challenge this afternoon.
"Repeat if you dare," that was how she provokes me.
I ventured closer to her slowly. Julia suddenly blushed. I put my hands around her waist. Julia greeted my action by placing her palms on my chest. Up close, I could see her lips started to open. I dare myself to push my lips against Julia's.
I enjoyed the tongue's sensation.
Then I shifted the two straps of the negligee on Julia's shoulders downward. She was complied, lowering her hand. At that moment, I could feel the smooth skin of her arms. I continue to sag it until the negli

"LANG!" shouted a woman calling me from outside the room. "Greyson Langley!" she shouted again. “Wake up, Son! Aren't you picking up Amelia? ""Yes, Ma’am!" I replied half-consciously from my room.But, how come my mother knew I have to pick up Amelia later in the night? I did not tell her. Maybe, my father was the one who told her.

ON the veranda, Benjamin seemed to pull something out of his shorts pocket. Apparently, he picked up a carved bamboo-ivory smoking pipe, a lighter, and a pinch of tobacco and cloves. Benjamin sat across from Vincent, who was busy observing the news clippings.Benjamin's fingers looked lively when he mixed tobacco and cloves. He then put the herbal concoction into the end of the pipe that resembled a bowl. Benjamin then set fire to it with his lighter.This old Chinese man closed his eyes and took a solemn inhale of the nicotine. The smoke that came out of his mouth was as much as the smoke of an old rickshaw exhaust.Sucked up a smoking pipe, Benjamin looks more charismatic. But in my opinion, he was artsy too.

FROM afar, I saw the traffic light turn red. I stopped the car behind a pickup, which was carrying many turbaned passengers. They seemed to be in a choir in Arabic, which I did not know what it means. The sound of tambourines blared over the traffic noise.After driving for a while, we entered Ahmed Jonnah Street. From afar, I could see the Emerald Exhibition and Convention Center building illuminated by spotlights aimed at the sky.

"Really, Mel," I asked in a half growl.Amelia did not answer me right away. Instead, she scolded Kacey for leaking her secret. In my opinion, playing the violin was not a skill that she should keep hidden.To process the latest information about Amelia, I said goodbye to these two girls. I felt I need to calm down outside the building. Meanwhile, these two beautiful girls continued their pretty chat. Even though I just wanted to smoke.Outside the building, I could see the lively Ahmed Jonnah Street. The lights from the headlights of the vehicle were zipping madly.

I entered the four-man line lazily. Kacey took the initiative to take selfies for the four of us. We started posing according to the width of the camera screen.Not long after, a cellphone camera shutter sound was heard. Kacey then looked at the photos and admired them. At that time, there was a voice whispering in my ear."Is she your new girlfriend?" whispered Donnie to me."Don't start gossiping," I replied."Then, where is the one who wears a hijab?" asked Jameela in a whisper."Don't start gossiping," I repeated.Just as I was about to express my concern about Donnie's hate speech case, Kacey suddenly turned around and asked to leave. I then gave up that intention. Kacey and I then thanked Donnie and Jameela.Kacey turned around and started walking in front of me. At that time, Donnie pushed my ass until my Mickey almost touched Kacey's butt. Good thing I had Gianglugi Buffon's world-class reflex, so I could avoid the collision.
