POV: Clazer Oath telling the past to Dr.Ruther

I decided to host a party for Sirania, Cristina, and Jacob for topping the exam, Heart pool street cafe was the venue and the time was around 5 o'clock.

If you ask me why? I wanted to know Jacob's reaction towards that girl, Vinneta.

Also, I had already planned something big.

We were all sitting around a round glass table, Sirania and Jacob on either side and Cristina opposite to me. We placed our orders, and most of them were Pizza and French fries.

"I didn't know that Americans were that smart!" Jacob said trying to fire the mood.

"I never knew that my boyfriend is that smart!" Sirania replied with a certain dignity.

"Don't act like his mom. Like my son topped in the exam and bullshit." Cristina said attempting to make fun of Sirania.

"What is such a big deal? Everyone is in the top 20 among us...and my luck was decent this time."

I was trying to be humble.

"Will you tutor me for the end semester exam Clazer?" Jacob requested me, planning for topping in the next exam.

"Yep! As you command master, but you are my next competitor."

Sirania hit my legs below the table.
"You can only accept my order, also you can't just go on and call anyone master," she said puffing her cheeks.

"So...you want to be Clazer's master? Now that's some spicy relationship..." Cristina popped up the issue again, smirking like a devil, trying to make fun of her.

"Oh my God, today I am sitting with Mr. Hot(Clazer),
Ms. Beauty (Sirania), and
Ms. Gossip (Cristina),
I can't believe it!" Jacob said blocking out Cristina's comment.

"Hey did you just call me Ms. Gossip and what are you? You need a nickname too!" Cristina rumbled.

"Your nickname's accurate, you are a gossip queen, going around rating dudes," Jacob said with sass.

"Chill guys!" I was trying to calm the atmosphere building around us.

"He called me first with that nickname!" Cristina whined.

"Next time lets visit Jacob's cake shop!" I said

"Wow! You own a cake shop?" Cristina replied forgetting what he said, she is really easy to fool.

"Yes! It's damn popular on Google with 4.5 stars." I appreciated their shop and staff's effort.

"Amazing, that is done. JACOB'S 3rd rank party is in his bakery shop. Tomorrow will be fine with me!" Sirania planned, totally getting into the mood, she put her head on my shoulder. It felt strangely good. I looked at her face, her cheeks were flushed as always and her eyes were excited thinking about the party that she just planned on her own.

"Tomorrow?" I questioned her.

"Ok, you can come. I will tell mom to prepare stuff." Jacob said.

"Yay! it will be so much fun!"

"Here's your order, please enjoy." The waitress said gaining our attention.

If you think she was Vinneta, you are Right. She wasn't wearing a mask this time, I can never forget the eyes I looked into. She was all I could see at that moment. I was lost in those deep eyes, eyes that said so much more than her lips.

As she placed the plate in front of Jacob, my attention shifted to him. Jacob blushed ear to ear. So I was right, Jacob loved this girl.

She left after serving us all but Jacob's gaze still followed her. Sirania and Cristina had already started to dig in.

Time for action...

"I will be back in a minute, need to visit the washroom," I informed them all.

Walking towards the bathroom, there was a door opening in the kitchen, I saw the same manager yelling at Vinneta again.

"Can't you handle the kitchen even for a minute? What a useless girl!"

"Sorry sir..." she apologized whimpering.

"Now go and do the only thing you can. Get out!" Manager blustered.

As I was staring at her, it reminded me of someone. She walked out and noticed me near the door.

"Yes sir, how can I help you?" she asked in her sweet voice trying to hide all the pain.

I was looking at her eyes, I was so lost in them.

"Sir! How can I help you? " she asked me again, louder this time.

What I did next just happened, I moved her smooth black strands that were stuck on her beautiful white face because of sweat that made her face shine, with my hand behind her ear, released her hair from the loose messy bun, then collected a bunch of her smooth straight hair and smelled them.

Vinneta pushed me back abruptly, my back hit the wall, and I came to my senses.

"You are sweating a lot, you look good, you remind me of that person, even the smell. That person also used to always work this hard. Take good care of yourself. What's your name? " I asked her.

"Vinneta Kerd.....Sir, I am sorry I pushed you," she said looking down.

"You look young, are you a college student as well?"

"Last year of college." She replied still looking at the floor.

"Same goes for me!" I walked close to her.

"Ok sir..." she said rushing toward the washroom, trying to get away.

I could tell she was embarrassed. I could not help as my eyes fell on her butt.

I asked the manager for the owner of the hotel. Luckily he was present in the shop.

"Hello sir, I visit your cafe every week,  and I think your cafe needs renewal. Right?"

"Yes, it has been more than three years since we renewed it." The owner greeted me with a handshake and a smile.

"I am willing to sponsor the renewal of this hotel. I will pay you a million pounds."

"Really sir? Please take a seat, why are you standing?" he greeted me.

"No, I am in a hurry, my friends are waiting. Wait a minute take this cheque of 1 million pounds for now."

I called the driver and asked him to bring my checkbook along with him. I signed the cheque and gave it to the owner of the cafe.

"Oh thank you, sir! But your name?" he said looking at me like I was GOD.

"Clazer Oath."

"Thank you, young man! We will start renewing this place by this week itself. You are a great help."

"And also, today itself, fire that manager of yours. And make sure he never comes back to this place again. Understood?" I had that anger coming out.

"Why sir, did he misbehave with you?"

"With my friend. A person who can't understand the problems of others is a useless person."

I moved towards the table where my friends were waiting.

"Something wrong Clazer? It took you so long..." Sirania said worriedly.

"No, nothing to worry..." I said sitting on the chair.

"We already started..." Cristina said taking the last bite of her pizza.

After 30 minutes of Gossips and endless laughter, it was time for us to leave.

Jacob rode toward his home on his cycle. I doubt something was wrong with him. He peeked at Vinneta now and then and even she must have noticed it.

Cristina and Sirania got in their car and left for their home.

I walked inside the cafe again and asked the owner to fire the manager in front of my eyes.

The owner called the manager.

"We are sorry Mr. Harte(manager), but I have decided to fire you."

"Why sir? Did I do something wrong? Please give me another chance..."

"Yes, you did something wrong. A person who can't respect a girl is of no use to the society or the world, just get out!" I scowled.

"Who are you? It's between us, it has got nothing to do with you." he retaliated.

Vinneta, along with the whole staff gathered around us.

"He is our new investor, an investor has the right to decide the fate of the shop." the owner informed everyone.

"But I didn't misbehave with anyone sir, believe me!"

"Oh really? I warned you before and today you did the same thing!"

The manager remembered me warning him last time for yelling on Vinneta and also today he was scolding Vinneta for no reason.

After about a heated 10 minute debate, the manager decided to quit the job. The owner-managed to arrange another job for him through a friend in England.

The manager walked towards Vinneta angrily.

"I am losing my job just because of a useless person like you... One day you will regret doing this to me."

The manager pushed Vinneta and acted like it was not intentional.

I managed to hold Vinneta who was standing next to me and the moment stopped when she was in my arms. I can feel her heartbeat. She was so soft with her long hair all over me.

"Watch out or I am gonna break your ass." I hissed at the manager.

"Are you ok?" I asked her.

She moved back, getting away from me, and lowered her head again.

"Yes I am, thank you, sir..."

"Ok everyone, back to your work. I will be taking my leave." I said looking at the owner.

Everyone turned around and returned to what they were doing.

"Will you wait for me Vinneta? Meet me after your shift or give me your number." I requested her.
