All Chapters of ONE NIGHT STAND BETWEEN BEST FRIENDS : Chapter 91 - Chapter 100

SalmaI had come out to enjoy a quiet stress-free night with Josephine after putting Leona to bed and leaving her with her great-grandmother, Rita. The last person I had thought I would encounter was Brandon. “Josephine?” I glared at my best friend who had convinced me that joining tables with Brandon was not such a bad idea. She was wrong—very wrong, and I was now paying for that with unsolicited advice from Brandon. As Josephine and I walked out of the bar, I began to yell my frustration at the top of my voice.“He's an idiot!” I screamed, “he hasn't even known Leona for two minutes and he thinks he's an expert on her?” “Salma… you need to keep calm,” Josephine said, trying to get me to calm down, but it was quite impossible at this point. I was already overly stimulated by everything that had happened today, and would happen tomorrow. “This is the calmest I can be, Josie,” I said to my friend, near tears, “is this how it's going to be from now on? Making every decision about my

Brandon “It's been way too long,” Timothee said as he watched the two women leave the bar, his eyes fixed on Salma's friend. “Right,” I said, “the last time we spoke was three months ago?” “Yeah… talk about how time flies,” he said with a small laugh. Then he leaned forward suddenly, “So you have a child?” Timothee leaned back and laughed, “That's crazy. How've you been holding up?” “Only found out about six weeks ago? It's been crazy since.” “Okay,” I said and shrugged, “I'm not sure how my life became so messy.” We exchanged stories about our lives and when I was done with mine, he began laughing uncontrollably. “I do remember Salma,” he said, “you replaced her with me when you went off to college.” I laughed. I recalled him being jealous every time I told him I was hanging out with Salma. “So you hate her now?" he asked me, “how the tables have turned.” I sighed. “I don't know…” I said; I had mixed feelings about Salma, “sometimes I forget why I hate her, or if I shoul

Brandon “Mr. McCoy?” I was surprised to say the least, and the expression on his face told me that he was shocked as well. His face had gone pale with shock as he stared at me for several minutes. I saw him look around nervously as if he were waiting for something or someone. “I had no idea you were in Baltimore,” I said, after recovering from the surprise of seeing him. “Oh, yes,” he cleared his throat nervously, “there's a conference I had to attend.” I raised my eyebrow. “Oh.” Then I saw Elaine walking towards us, and her presence made me squint for a while. Did I not just drop her off at a baby shower? What was she doing here now?” “Elaine?” I called her. She looked to my side and I saw her face cloud with surprise. Then she masked the surprise on her face with delight as she walked towards me and held my arm. “Brandon! I had no idea you were staying here,” she said, her eyes drifting to the huge hotel before us. “You have met Mr. McCoy, haven't you?” I asked casually. S

Brandon “Josephine?” I saw her walk towards the nurse who had just told me to piss off. I practically ran towards them to make sure that I got to her in time.“Looks like you've got yourself an admirer,” the nurse teased her and walked away. Josephine had a look of frustration on her face, and her eyes looked puffy, as if she had been crying. “What is this about?” she asked me. “What did you mean when you asked if Salma called me?” I asked her. She looked perturbed, “I said that?” “Please, I came to Maryland to prove Leona is my daughter. Whatever game Salma is playing…” “You think she's playing games?” “Then why is she not answering my calls?” I snapped. “I'm sorry,” I apologised immediately, “I just… I would really love to be a part of my daughter's life and… please tell me at least if Leona is fine.” She looked at me with sad eyes, which I couldn't understand. “It'll be best if you just stay away,” she said quietly, which made me frown. “I can't do that,” I replied, “Le

Salma I had not gone very far when I heard a voice I thought I would never have to hear in Maryland, “If it's not the world-acclaimed heart surgeon, Dr. Gascon.” I spun around to see her smiling at me with mischief lurking about in the corners of her lips. If this were any other day, I would have a good rebuttal for her, but today was different. I had been on an emotional rollercoaster all day and was in no mood to engage a woman who was nothing but trouble. So I turned and tried to walk away, but she grabbed my hand roughly and spun me around so that I was facing her. “Why the fuck won't you stay away from Brandon?” she demanded from me, baring her teeth at me. I raised an eyebrow. What the hell was she talking about?I had slept with Brandon twice, but that was it. I had not slept with him since then. “If your man is not faithful to you, you have to stop blaming others,” I said as I struggled to free myself from her grip. For a slender frame, she was surprisingly strong. “Se
