See, that's exactly why I said he might be cheating on me. I mean, he lied about work all night and was somewhere parting with some women when he was supposed to hang out with me. What do you think?
Well, judging by this, I can say he lied. Then again, there's a problem: why did he post this? Just think about it, he knows you are gonna see this, something just doesn't add up.
What do you mean?
I don't know yet, but I think I have a way to find out. My cousin works in the same office, and I can ask him.
Wait, your cousin works in the same office? Since when and why didn't I know about this?
He just got the job a few days ago, and you were busy with your mom. I didn't think it was important news, mostly because we are not that close either. He just happened to pass by my apartment and dropped the news that he had moved to town and just got a job in the JR company. And offered to help if I needed anything or in case of an emergency, he would be there as family.
Oh wow, that must have been a sudden surprise. So what are you gonna do?
hes the only one we know in JR we can get info on what's happening, so let's see if he can help.
Emma's cousin brother, Daniel Dawson, had recently been recruited to the finance department, just as Rachel's Boyfriend, Ricky Collins.
Emma found Daniel's number in her contact list and rang. The call was immediately answered.
Hi Emma, never thought you would call. What's up?
Hi Dani, where are you right now? Can you talk? There's something I need to know.
I'm in the office, but sure, I can talk about what it is.
Do you know anyone named Ricky Collins who works with you?
You mean Playboy Ricky? Ya, I know him. Why?
Surprised by her cousin's reaction to the name Emma forgot why she called him and asked him
Why did you say Playboy Ricky? What's that supposed to mean?
First of all, why are you asking about him? Wait, don't tell me you have something going on with him.
Rachel, who was also listening to the conversation since Emma had put him on speaker, had no words to add; her entire nervous system felt like going into shock every time Emma's cousin spoke about her boyfriend. Seeing Rachel's face turning red, Emma was about to turn off the speaker and get the info out of her cousin, putting it in a way Rachel could bear, since she was a very sensitive person. However, Rachel stopped her signalling she wanted to hear every last word he had to say.
No, it's not me, I'm asking for a friend. Ricky is her boyfriend. He had said he was working late last night and skipped his date with her, but we saw his Instagram posts in the morning, which didn't add up to what he said, so we were hoping you knew anything about it.
Work all night? Are you serious? That dude hardly works around here.
Looking at each other, Emma asked What do you mean?
Well, you know there's a type of people who work for the slight threats..... well theres one guy in this section that he has under his sleeve I dont know what he says hell do to him but everytime the boss assigns Ricky something he gives it to that guy saying something which I've noticed makes him sweat like hell that he does whatever Ricky has to. Then the dude just hands it over to the boss as if he did all the heavy work and gets compliments. Tried it on me also, but didn't work.
Wow, that's not the Ricky we know. Are you sure we are talking about the same guy, because the Ricky we know is an honest hard hard-working guy. It's just hard to believe this.
Ya, I know, tell you what, I can't discuss everything now, the dude just punched in for work, and since we are in the same department, I don't think it's wise to talk about him now.
Okay, Dani, we get out of work around 6 pm. Can you come to my apartment? ya sure.
Just then, Rachel spoke out. No, we'll text you an address. It would be great if you could come there instead.
Who was that, Emma? Was it your friend? Don't tell me she was listening all this time.
Ya, that's my friend, and she was listening. We'll send you an address. If you can make it would be great. She doesn't want to leave her mom alone at home for too long since she's sick. And it's easy to find this place, it's twenty minutes from the hotel.
Okay, as you wish, send me the address. I will be there around 7.30 pm.
Thanks, Dani. Bye.
Bye, Emma and Emma's friend, whom I can't wait to see.
Dani no flirting
I know that's not flirting, that's just me saying I can't wait to be one of her friends.
