(Getting drunk)

?Episode 30?

Penny’s POV:

I removed the phone from my ear and chuckled lightly.

Who the fk does this woman think she is?

“You don’t command me mother, get that straight.” I seethed out.

“So you can now talk back to me? What an ungrateful child. I nurtured you you whom you are now.” She rants.

“Really mother? The several nannies nurtured me and not you, send me the hospital address and I’ll visit him.
Goodbye.” I quickly and drop my phone before she could say anything else.

I relaxed back on the couch and sighed.

Cr@zy woman.

“Mom did you bought the hot chocolate?” Chris asked as he tab my shoulder.

“Yes, tight on the table.” I groaned and rubbed the back of my hand on my eyes.

I detest it when am woken up from sleep, but Chris doesn’t even wanna know that.

He jumped happily and retrive the chocolate from the bag.

“Thank you so much mommy, I’ll continue to be a good boy.” He said and I couldn’t help but laughed.

“You’ve made that promise for the fifth time today.” I reminded him.

He blushed and rushed out of my sight.

I stood up from the couch and went inside the kitchen, it is late already and I’m sure Chris must be hungry.

I opened the fridge and all I see was tofu and a cup of ramen.

Oh God, I forgot to go grocery shopping today.

I mental listed that it will be my first duty tomorrow.

My phone dinged from the kitchen table and I unlocked it to see that it was my mother.

?He is in the first hospital, keep your mouth sealed if you want to live?

That stupid woman, how dare her threaten me.

She thought he threats can faze me.

I brought out the tofu and ramen then placed it on the kitchen counter.

“Good night baby.” I kssed his forehead and tuck him in under the bedsheets.

I closed the door behind me and went to my bar.

I brought out a full bottle of red wine and a glass cup then walk back to the balcony.

I sat down and pour the wine for myself then took a sip.

That fker that Maggie set me up with.

Who does he even think he is?

I don’t care if he want to date or not. He is a dk.

But he is funny as h.ell, I want people like him as friends.

Maggie and Ana are the only friend i have, well Bryce?

Is he considered a friend?

I don’t know what to address him as.

I sigh and gulp down the wine.

Who made me like this, back in my college days at school.
I was very outgoing.

But then Alexander spilt everything for me.

That ba$tard ruined me.
I don’t know what I feel about him right now but it is no longer love.

I hate him!

I hate him so much that I’ll ruin him the way he ruined me whenever I get to meet him again.

I didn’t know how long i sat there thinking about Alexander but when I stood up, I felt dizzy.

I was drunk.

Just how much did you drink Penelope?

Involuntarily I picked my phone and dialed any random number that I saw.

“Penny? Are you okay?” A voice asked from inside the phone.

Oh, the phone can talk?

“You je.rk! You ba$tard. I’m going to kill you. I’ll kill you, I’ll ruin you Alex. I’ll ruin you beyond repair.” I cursed, my grip tightened around the phone.

“Penny it is Bryce, what’s going on?”

Oh Bryce the multi billionaire.

“Bryce………why do you have to be married? It should have been both of us.” I said calmly.

I heard him inhale a sharp breath.

“Penny what are you saying?where are you. You’re drunk penny what’s going on?” He asked.

Haa!

He thought that I called him for interview.

Hmmph!

I dropped the phone on the ground and dragged myself back inside the living room where I fell on the couch and slept off.

D@mn it!

………………..

I woke up with a heavy hangover, my head was hurting badly.

I looked around and I was still laying down on the couch.

Stupid me, I can’t handle being drunk but I got myself drunk.

I managed to drag myself up from the couch and sigh at the mess I created.

The living room was a mess.

Just my luck and the doorbell rang immediately.

Who is it?

Maggie?

What is she doing here this early morning?
Did something happened to her.

I rushed towards the front door and pulled it open without a second thought.

Standing in front of me was Bryce, he was wearing a three piece black suit, his hair perfectly combed back.

His hand tuck in his pants pocket.

I was embarrassed.

I was even looking good at all.

I’m sure that my hair is a mess and my clothes.

D@mn it.

I stood there watching him with my mouth opened.

“What are you doing here?” I asked and gulped down.

“You didn’t sound so well last night, i came to check up on you.” He replied and my eyes widens.

I called him last night?

What did i said to him?

“Oh, you don’t…..need to worry sir. I’m fine.”I told him.

“Would you at least let me in?” He asked, I made to make a way for him but quickly remembered the state of my living room.

“No! Hmm you can’t come in.”

“Why?

“Because……..because…..”

“Cat got your tongue?what are you hiding?” He asked, his eyes sizing me suspiciously.

“Nothing.” I said almost immediately.

“Then let me in.” He deadpanned.

Oh man!

This man is really stubborn.
