1 Chapter 1 Reluctance

"I hate you! I will never be with you." shouted by a girl.

It was a long and rugged road. A nautical place miles away from the city, surrounded by the Pacific ocean. A paradise island, a breath taking nature and the home of the majestic beauty.

"Wait, come back!" replied Christian.

"ahhh....."That memory keep on lingering on my mind. "Who is that girl? why does she tells me that she will never be with me?" this dream is so fucking real and keeps on torturing me.

Christian is sweating so hard and he is now fully awake in his grandeur abode. His place is exquisitely equipped with high technology CCTV and automatic devices. Situated in the heart of the city. Complete with amenities for sports and entertainment. Who would not know the Mr. Christian Sans, the chairman of the Sans Group of companies.

At the age of 30, he is the most sought out bachelor. He is among the top one percent of the upper and elite people.

"kring.....kring.....kring" Christian's phone is not yet connecting.

"what the fuck?" uttered while waiting for the other party to accept the call. He tried three times and wham.....

"Hello! what the hell calling me in the middle of my precious deep sleep, Christian!" Aren't you bored?" sigh from the other party, who is Daniel, his best friend and secretary. He is the only employee who can compel with the chairman's temper and mood swings.

"what! do you want to die? why are you discontented with your salary? do you want to be fired?" retaliating to the answer of his secretary, that is Christian, he does not care on the feelings of others.

"Buddy! Chairman! what's the problem? aren't you sleep?" in a very calm tone,. ask Daniel.

"I dream that girl again!" exclaimed by the chairman.

"huh? your waking me up because of your dream? Boss...buddy....my friend...." complained by Daniel.

"Yes, and this time, I almost see her face. Although,. her voice is calm but full of anger. Why is that? it feels so real. I can't go back to sleep again." Christian explained in a lonely voice.

"Ahemmm....boss buddy, since you can't go back to sleep and it is still 12:15 a.m. why not we go to a bar and drink it over?" he suggested.

"Well, we can meet at The Bars." It is a bar that only the elite is allowed to join. The membership card is hard to get.

"I'll be right there boss buddy" chuckled by Daniel in a fun manner.

Immediately Christian change his clothes in a casual attire. A signature Polo shirt and an expensive pants. He loves to wear casual or sports attire when he goes to clubs and bars.

Riding his red Lamborghini, he arrived at The Bar within 30 minutes. He goes to the bar counter. Although the atmosphere is still full of life because there are still a lot of customers even it is already 1:00 a.m.

"Boss, I already prepared your VIP suite. Mr. Daniel already called us." politely said by the manager.

"Okay...." replied by Christian while following the manager to the room.

"Here we are, we already prepared the most expensive wine, and we have a new bartender exclusively assigned to you suite tonight." proudly the manager explained.

"Well, the wine is enough and I think we don't need a bartender, since it is only me and Daniel." he retorted.

"Manager, we like to have the bartender but later. We will just call you when we need him." Daniel immediately disagree with Christian as he was approaching them.

"You are late! and you dare to oppose me on having a personal bartender." Christian in scolding tone.

"Boss Buddy, I heard that this new bartender is the best in the whole world. Let us try his alcohol mixing and enjoy the drinks." he beg.

"Boss, just ring the bell if you will need our bartender. As for the moment, please enjoy the wine." the manager retorted and immediately closed the VIP room.

"Boss buddy, why are you so stiff. Here I pour you wine." at once, Daniel hand over the goblet to Christian. Just in one gulp Christian drinks the wine without hesitation.

"Gosh, you really not in a good mood, so tell me about it."

Christian just stared at Daniel with a sharp eyes. Anger, sadness and confusion where shown me n his face.

"Okay, I get it, you just wanted to have a drinking buddy at 1:00 in the morning. If you are reluctant to share your dream girl to me. Then let's drink till the last drop of our blood." half - smiling and half - mockingly said Daniel.

The both of them take turns in bringing the wine. No one say a word. Daniel did not ask his best friend about the reason why they drink. Luckily, they do not have a work tomorrow since it is Sunday. They both have the time to get drink and just be over with.

After an hour of drinking, and the wine bottle is already empty. Daniel suggested to Christian that they must call the bartender to serve them more drinks.

Although, Christian is a bit tipsy now, because he mostly drinks the wine. He knows that his buddy is giving him more wine to drink than him. What a tricky man. He thought.

Daniel, as his best friend and Assistant of course it is his duty to keep him safe and sane, so he must not get drunk tonight because he will be the one to send this drunkard man in a while. He already knows the drill since they grow up together. "Hopefully, this best friend of mind will agree to call the bartender so that I can relax in pouring the wine and enjoy his drinks tonight" thought Daniel.

"Okay, bring in the bartender, I am also curious with his ability, as you say, he is the best in the world." smirked by Christian.
