54 College Reunion 4 (1/2)

The four of us clicked our glasses.

”Congratulations.” Gerald and Teena both said.

They took a sip on their glasses while I touched the rim of my glass with my lips.

”Oh Shawn is coming.” I said abruptly. Julia looked the way I was looking.

Shawn was holding the drinks that he got from the bar.

”Let me help you.” Julia stood up and walked towards Shawn. While their focus was on Shawn I switched my glass with Julia's. I smiled internally.

Julia helped carry the drinks with Shawn.

”Flirty bitch.” I hear Teena whispered.

”Shh.” Gerald shushed her.

When they arrived at the lounge Julia took her original seat. Shawn frowned at her. He circled around and took the seat at my other side.

Shawn was looking at my glass of champagne. ”You can't drink alcohol now, right?” he looked at me then at Julia.

”Come on Shawn. It's just one glass. It won't hurt.” Julia said. ”Now Shawn is here let's have a toast once again. To Queenie's return.” Julia raised her glass again. We toast again and took a sip from our glasses.

I look at Julia now that she was drinking from the glass I switched earlier. I smiled to myself and took a sip from mine.

When I wasn't looking, Julia was also keeping an eye on me.

After some time I have finished my glass.

”I need to use the rest room.” I said.

”Oh do you need any help.” Julia offered.

”No I'm fine.” I said with a smile.

I walked thru the crowd. Not far I saw a familiar face. I can't be mistaken. I will never forget that face for the rest of my life. It was Brad. I clenched my wrists.

Come to think of it he was also a batch mate of ours so it was not really surprising for him to be here. I see him chatting with his old friends.

'Hmm.' I thought to myself. I exited the function hall. I walked towards the reception area in the lobby. I saw a male receptionist manning the area.
