Chapter 25
Ten years ago in the city of Cheswick, the stars shone on the city. It was peaceful except for traffic and the loud music blaring from the Bull Bar. Scotty was working that night and he was serving all the drinks he could until a girl approached the counter. She wasn't stable and she wobbled as she made her way to the bar. She leaned against the bar in her dazed state.
Scotty took in her appearance as she leaned on the counter. Her hair was as black as a raven and reached her chin. She had an Asian face with light makeup but bright lipstick. Her cheeks were stained with a blush as she was drunk. Gold jewelry adorned her ears and wrists as she stood at the counter.
Her dress was red and it reached her mid-upper thigh. It wasn't sparkly at all but it was covered in lace and soft material. There were no sleeves at all and it had a sweetheart neckline with no straps at all. She wore chunky tan heels and her smile seemed infectious. Scotty felt the attraction to the woman instantly.
" What can I do for you? "
" I want a black russian. " She screeched
" Ms you seem like you've had too much to drink already. "
" I want another one! "
Scotty made a black russian and slid the glass in front of her. She drank it all and was dragged back into the club. Scotty made sure to keep an eye on her since she seemed completely out of it. When his shift had ended he had looked at the woman one last time and when he did he saw a man had approached her. The man held her wrist and tried to pull her to him.
The woman refused but the man was stronger and was pulling at her dress. Scotty felt anger and he walked to the dance floor to save the woman from something she would regret in the morning. He approached the two and took the woman's hand out of the strange man's grip.
" Excuse me she doesn't want you touching her. "
" And who are you, her boyfriend? "
" Yes, I am. Now scram. "
Scotty's dark hair and sharp blue eyes scared the man away and he had dragged the woman out of the bar and onto the street. She was still wobbly and couldn't speak clearly.
" Did you come with anybody tonight? "
" Nope. " She slurred.
" How did you get here? "
" I took the bus. " She continued to slur.
Her body started falling to the ground but Scotty had caught her in time before she could hit the ground. He decided to bring her to his penthouse and have her sleep there for the night. He carried her to his car and drove to his penthouse building and parked in the parking garage. The woman was as light as a feather so he had no trouble bringing her up to his penthouse. He had covered her with blankets in his bed.
He left her to sleep in his bed and he slept on the couch. When the sun rose in the sky and brightened up the city the woman rose from the bed with her head pounding. She didn't recognize her surroundings and she got out of the bed and climbed down the stairs of the penthouse. A wonderful smell came from the kitchen, to which she entered and saw Scotty making breakfast. He turned to her with a smile.
" Good, you're awake. You need to eat first and then you can take some medicine for your headache. "
" Who are you? "
" My names Scotty. I work at the bar you went to last night. You were wasted and continued to ask for drinks when I saw a man pulling at your very short dress. I was getting off my shift and I thought I would help you out and save you. When I brought you outside you had passed out so I thought I would bring you to my place and let you sleep here.
" I'm Anzai Ome. Thank you for letting me stay here. "
" It was no trouble at all. Here eat up. "
From that day on Scotty would keep encountering Anzai in the streets and she would visit him at the bar a lot. They got closer and closer each time they met and would talk to each other until it was midnight. Scotty had gathered feelings for Anzai Ome along the way but he was scared to confess anything to her. He had taken note of how her cheeks would turn pink and how she stuttered around him. He thought she had feelings for him and had shown clear signs.
Yet, he found himself in a situation that caused all of his relationship problems. He found himself alone.
