Third Person POV

Chao ran over to Plan but had barely reached him when he heard another voice yelling, "Plaaannn!!!"

Chao turned around to see Ohm, the company driver, running from the company van, leaving the engine still running. Ohm had run to the gate and was banging on it, trying to open it forcibly.

"What the hell!" Chao yelled. "Go home all of you! There's nothing wrong going on here in my property! I had just invited Plan to dinner because he had come back from the KinnPorsche press conference and mentioned that he was hungry."

"Then why is he naked?" Ohm demanded to know.

"It's really none of your business," Chao said angrily. "But I will explain anyway. He drank some wine and then after dinner he threw up all over his clothes."

When Tay and Mean and Ohm remained silent, Chao continued, "Now go home all of you and I will take care of lending Plan some clothes to wear."

"We would like to wait until Plan looks decent and then we will take him home," Mean said firmly.

"No, I will take him home," Ohm said even more firmly.

Everyone got a shock when Plan suddenly spoke up.

"Go home, all of you," Plan said. "I can take care of myself. I will bring myself home after I have put some clothes on."  With those words, Plan pulled the bed cover more tightly around himself.

Then Plan turned on his heel and walked back in the direction of Chao's mansion. Chao followed close on Plan's heels.

Mean and Tay and Ohm looked at each other, indecision written all over their faces.

Then Tay spoke up.

"Okay, guys," he said firmly, clearly reaching a decision, "our boy has spoken. Let him be."

Mean shook his head.

"Remember the other guys who got invited to Chao's mansion?" he asked Tay and Ohm as he stood his ground, holding on tightly to the long thin iron pole that jutted out of the gate as part of its design.

"They either never came back to work or they quit shortly after," Ohm supplied the answer.

"But we can't force Plan to come with us if he doesn't want to," Tay argued. "We will just have to wait and see what happens next. We can only hope that he will be  back to work tomorrow."

"No, you guys go ahead," Mean said determinedly. "I will stay here and wait."

"Suit yourself," Tay said as he started walking back to his car.

Ohm stood a bit longer before doing the same.

Mean stayed, looking up at the veranda on the second floor, the glass doors standing open and a soft breeze blowing the thin translucent white curtains making them dance gracefully back and forth and side to side.

Mean didn't know how long he had stood there until his stomach started to grumble, reminding him that he had not eaten dinner yet. He started to wonder whether he should head back home now just as Tay and Ohm had done.

Mean was about to turn around to walk back to his car when he heard Plan's voice.

"Meeeaaannn!" Plan yelled to make sure that Mean had heard him.

Mean turned back around to see Plan running down the driveway, Chao following him close behind.

"Can you give me a ride home?" Plan asked, breathless from his running.

"I offered to drive him to his house but he said he didn't want to trouble me any longer," Chao explained, frowning at Plan.

"Of course I can give you a ride," Mean confirmed with Plan, watching as Chao walked over to a narrow metal door beside the massive gate and opening it to let Plan through.
