Chapter 382
"Yeah/ John replied, and turned towards Sam. "I'm going now."
Sam nodded, knowing that John had been under a lot of stress lately.
However, Bob was in a hurry to leave after John, leaving Sam speechless. Sam stared at him and asked, ’Why would you want to leave so early?
Come with me for some drinks after this."
"I'll pass. I need to go home soon to keep my girlfriend company. I'm worried she'd get lonely."
"Could you stop being such a sucker in love? It's disgusting."
"That's called sour grapes, Sammy boy/ Bob retorted nonchalantly.
Sam was at a loss for words. "Fine, f*ck off."
Bob couldn't care less, since he was genuinely happy.
Still, just as Bob was about to go, Sam stopped him. ’Wait."
Bob rolled his eyes. "Look. I'm not going clubbing—’
"Here," Sam said, suddenly whipping out two band-aids.
Bob's eyes widened so much his eyeballs could have fallen out. "Why'd you carry these around? Are you gay, Sam? Please dont tell me you like me..."
"Shut up," Sam snapped. "Now go home to the missus."
Bob took the band-aids, but somehow felt a child running down his spine.
