No way to treat a lady

Emily's point of view:

Well, it seems that my time has come, and the man I'm waiting for to change my life has just stepped inside of the shop......

He was a piece of art created by God. His well-built body, full of muscles that were everything my eyes asked for.

Blond, short hair, green forest eyes, and red cherry lips - they were all placed in a very artistic way on his v shape face.

He was wearing black jeans that matched his white t-shirt. The t-shirt he was wearing shows most of his perfect abs along with the tattoos on his arms, which make it hyper hard not to be lost in his charm.

He also seemed to be a very important person since he had two mighty bodyguards running after him, also for that Lucia herself went out of her office to greet him.

" Mr. Night! It's a pleasure to..." Before she was able to finish what she was saying, the so-called Mr. Night interrupted her as he said.

" I'm not here to have any sort of chit-chat, especially with you. I'm here to remind you about my money, hope you concede the fact that I don't like delaying. " 

" Of course I do know, Mr. Night, but it's a whole million-dollar. How do you expect me to pay for all of it by myself?" She started explaining herself, as her voice was down. It was my first time seeing her that way - asking pity from someone in an indirect way.

At the same time, she was talking. One of the guards pushed her toward the nearest wall. Then Mr. Knight spoke again...

" How you do get my money ready is the least I care for, as long as you get it on time. Otherwise, I won't be as gentle as I am - now! After all, I wasn't the one asking you to gamble with such an amount of money."

Seeing the scene in front of my sight, I decided to make a move, though I was feeling afraid. The staff didn't mind showing themselves up, including James. Again, what to expect from such garbage as him.

I took some few steps toward where my phone was placed while intending to call the cops. As I was delaying the number, what I didn't expect to happen happened. I was caught by one of these two-guards before the call was made.

The moment the guard's hand touched my body, I shouted, not being able to hide the terror I was feeling. Yet, even after so, he didn't let go either. Instead, he took me to his boss, then explained. " Sir! She was trying to call the police."

Just by then, the so-called Mr. Night seemed to notice my presence. He clenched his fist while I closed my eyes, waiting for his fist to kiss my face. Instead, all I got was me being released while a scream of pain went out of the guard who was capturing me.

My knees were unable to hold me out of fear, so I fell down on my knees. I didn't get what had just happened, nor did I care. All I was thinking about was finding a solution to get myself out of this mess.

Then I felt his hands lifting my chin up before he directed his speech to the bodyguard he had just punched.

" This is no way to treat a woman!" His voice was calm, yet terrifying. The next thing he did was to help me stand on my feet. The way he was looking at me feels as if he does recognize me from somewhere, but I don't think that's the case. I mean if we knew each other from somewhere, I would've known him the moment I saw - after all, his face wasn't a face that you forget about.

" I apologize if you miss...?" It seems that he was waiting for me to give my name. I wanted to - but for some unknown reason, I felt out of speech.

" That's okay! At least let me apologize to you for my man's behavior. After all, it's not the right to treat such beauty that way. How about I invite you to?.." 

" No! No ...' I tried to decline his offer politely. "That's okay, I'm not allowed to..."

But then his voice changed to be firm and scary, leaving no space for me to speak, as he states.

" If I say you can, then no one can go against it." He then faced Lucia, who was still blocked by the wall, then he ordered her.

" How about you see what the lady wants!"

Not waiting for any extra second, Lucia comes toward me. Not as a boss - but it was as if she was a waitress.

I knew deep inside that she was going to make me pay for such an accident, even though I was just trying to help. So, I decided to enjoy the moment.

" How about a Mocha? I want a Mocha!" I told her, but she was looking at me dumbfounded. Then I found myself explaining to her.

" It's a coffee latte with chocolate and whipped cream, made by pouring about 2 cl of chocolate sauce into the glass, followed by an espresso shot and steamed milk." 

Though her eyes were screaming with hatred, she faked a smile then switched to the so-called Mr. Night before she asked him.

" How about you Mr. Night?" He answered her without breaking his eye contact with me.

" I want the same as her!" She then disappeared after taking the orders.

The next thing to happen was that he led me to one of the seats, as he was helping me to sit like a gentleman. The entire scene got my heart shaking, as that karma was finally on my side. Yet, I started doubting the reasons he was treating me that way. I mean, the man who was threatening Lucia has nothing to do with the gentleman in front of me.
