Bab 55: Apartment 21. Aiden Jenkins. A Friend In Ash (Part 3)

"Aiden!" I heard Karlie's shrill voice pierce through the silent party, except for the booming sound of music coming from the expensive-looking black speakers perched on the high corner walls of the house. 

"I'm fine, Karlie, seriously," I said in a heaving voice, wincing at the pain that still stabbed at the spot (and surrounding areas) where the asshole punched me.
