BXBX NOVEL Chapter 505 Joanna Took Her Time
Some hours later, two ladies were seen strolling on a street, one at the front while the other walked behind.
The one behind made sure to maintain a distance at every given time.
Audrey who has been following her best friend to roam the street peered at her sagging shoulders.
Her heart ached immensely to see her best friend in this state.
She has always thought that falling in love will bring so much happiness into her best friend's life and this was why he was in full support of her falling in love.
If she had known that being in love would bring more pain and suffering into her best friend's life then she would have...
Audrey shook her head and tried to get the negative thoughts out of her head.
[I guess this was what my mum always meant when she said being in love comes with its fair share of blissfulness and heartaches]
A painful smile crept onto her face and almost immediately she increased her pace so that she would catch up with Joanna.
After she caught up with her, Audrey raised her hand and playfully tapped Joanna's shoulders like she often does.
"This mood calls for some drinking and rocking at a club, what do you say?" She asked while forcing on a smile to cheer Joanna up.
Joanna halted and tilted her head sideways and peered at her friend's face, "Today is Laura's birthday party, have you forgotten that?" She quizzed.
Although she acted cool, Audrey could still sense the sadness in her voice.
"And because I was ordered to be at the party at any cost, I can't miss it even though I wanted to...,"
"Who on Earth would make sure orders?" Audrey berated, her fists tightly clasped.
"Who else if not our domineering Mr Anderson," She replied and resumed her walk.
As they walked side by side Audrey sneaked a peep at her best friend's face hoping that she would be able to read her mind from her face.
But Joanna's expressionless face made her fail in her mission woefully.
"That old man has always been unfair to you. He surely needs some spanking," She hissed and drew closer so that her hand on Joanna's shoulder was a bit firmer.
"And who is gonna do the spanking huh?" Joanna asked playfully.
"Me of course," Audrey blurted. She beats her chest confidently.
Joanna paused in her tracks and diverted her attention to her best friend's face.
Audrey's smile faded the instant she saw Joanna's narrowed eyebrows.
"You don't want me to do it because he is your father...,"
"Silly girl," Joanna tapped Audrey's forehead lightly and started walking again.
"Have you forgotten that I have no father or whatnot," She smiled and maintained her pace.
Audrey stopped and watched Joanna's back. She has never felt so hurt to hear Joanna say these words as she felt at the moment.
"You might not have a father but you have an older sister who has got your back. I think that is enough to make up for that...,"
"Cut out with it crazy girl," She cut in, her right hand raised in the air.
Audrey smiled and ran for a few seconds until she caught up to Joanna.
"No matter how much you dislike the idea, the fact that I am older than you remain. You have to accept it whether or not you like it," Audrey joked beaming.
She tried to jump on Joanna's back but the lady who had already foreseen her next move leapt to the side.
"Stay away from me," Joanna shouted, her index finger pointed at the lady who failed to hop into her body for the second time.
"You just said stay away from me but why do I feel like you want me to get closer hmm," Audrey said and winked naughtily at her.
"You are definitely not in your right mind and I need to get away from you," She mumbled, pretending as if she was mad at Audrey.
She began walking away afterwards.
"Do you think I am easy to get rid of," Audrey shouted. Her evil smirk spread across her pretty face.
From then onwards, Audrey devised every means to make sure her best friend was in a good mood.
Although she had no plans of going to Laura's birthday party, she changed her mind after she learned that Joanna would be present there.
She would go there as her best friend's biggest supporter and make sure none dared to bully her.
Two hours after the commencement of Laura's party, Joanna was just seen getting ready after she came out of the bathroom.
"Anna, you said Mr Anderson was the one who asked you to be present at the party. Actually, I don't mind going there a bit later but are you sure you will be alright?" Audrey asked her best friend who acted like they still had two hours until the commencement of the party.
"Won't he unleash terror on you for going against his order?" Audrey added and leaned her butts against the dressing table.
She focused her full attention on the lady who was currently applying lotion on her face.
"He only said I should be at the party but he never mentioned when. He should be happy I will be arriving there a bit later and not some minutes before the party is over," Joanna muttered.
Her nonchalance made Audrey wonder whether this was her best friend or someone else.
"It's rare to see you act rebellious so I am with you on this," Audrey smiled and gave her a thumbs up.
Meanwhile, as this was going on, at the venue of the party a man in blue blazers was constantly seen stealing glances at the entrance of the enormous hall.
While others enjoyed the party he wasn't in the mood to do that.
"I specifically asked her to be here so why is the darn girl not here yet? Is it her plan to make me a thing of ridicule in the presence of so many people?" He muttered, his right hand clutching the wine glass in his hands.
