Text us on 9889 or call us on 7887. We await your response, has Scott been fair enough to his wife Anna or should we support the young woman whom Scot was seen hugging affectionately o-"
I shut down the TV, exasperated. Scott cannot do this! He loves me and only me, isn't that why he left that loser Yvonne?
I took my iPhone and dialled his number. It was already 8 in the morning and he was nowhere to be seen. I'd looked in the hotel gallery, the bar, the terrace, the beach but in vain.
"Yes?" he answered with a sleepy tone.
"Scott, where are you? I searched every nook and corner in here but you were no-"
"Anna just shut up! Eat something and I’m not coming home...I-"
"Are you drunk??"
"Me, uh...." he took a long pause and answered, "no, I don't, no drunk baby.." and started laughing stupidly. It only made my heart beat faster.
"Scott tell me, where are you? I'm coming right there," I said quickly.
"uhhh....Santagona bar? Hahahahahaha Santa owns a bar Aana!!"
I sighed in relief, I knew where that place was, "Okay, just stay right where you are, I'm coming," I said as I hung up.
30 minutes later
I opened the bar door to be acquainted with the heavy and foul smell of alcohol. Many drunkards lay on the floor, among which i saw Scott. He was lying on a chair in an exhausted posture.
I rushed to him as soon as i saw him, "Scott! Scott are you okay?" He reeked of liquor, i wonder how much of alcohol he consumed since last night.
He sighed and opened his eyes. He blinked a few times to adjust to the light. I bent down to his neck to pick him up and get back to the hotel but froze right that moment as he whispered in my ear, "Yvonne.."
Last night- Scott's Pov
We'd finished the dinner and i offered to drive her home though she refused coutless times but i'm glad i was obstinate enough; atleast we got to spend some more time.
"Did you like it tonight?" I said attempting to break the awkward silence filling the car.
Her head was still turned to the window but i could easily guess she was avoiding to see my face. "Mmh.." she answered. Women giving me silent treatment provoked me to do something i didn't want to do but i kept my calm and focused on the road ahead.
