Chapter 19: Chapter 19

Zenia's POV

EJ made a slow approach towards Anton and I knew what was coming. The temper he possessed and the unfriendly tension from him, it was going to get ugly very quickly.

I rushed between them before he got too close to a startled Anton.

"Why are you here?" I asked him, trying to direct his attention towards me instead.

"I asked you who's this guy?" His dark grey eyes locked onto Anton.

"This is my new friend." I answered.

"I'm Anton." Anton held out his hand to EJ, who only looked at him as if he had the Ebola virus. After ten seconds, Anton pulled his hand back without a responded handshake.

"Why's this dude here with you?" EJ's eyes shifted over to me now.

"We got caught in the rain so..." I was about to explain but he cut me off.

"And so what? His house doesn't have a roof? Why do you have him up here with you? Oh, so that's why you couldn't answer your phone, huh? You were busy with entertaining this guy, Zenia?"

"EJ! would you just stop it!" I snapped.
