Worse Friend

"Where are you heading to, Miss?"

Lena snapped out of her daydreaming. "Ah… I am actually going to visit a friend. Here's the address."

Lena handed her phone to Kye who put the address into the GPS navigation. The ride was quite long. Lena had never visit Gary before.

After a while, they were on the outskirts of town. When they finally arrived in front of Gary's apartment complex, the bodyguards were extra cautious. They were in a not so safe area.

To Lena though.. This was just a normal part of town. Lena got out of the car. There were a few people gathering around them. It is not every day that you see a rich people car and a pretty around here.

"Noah. Stay in the car, just in case." Lena spoke and then entered the small apartment building with Kye. Kye was a big and tall man. His height was almost to the ceiling.

Lena stopped in front of apartment room #18. 'This is it. Gary's place.'

Lena knocked on the door a few times. There was no answer. She knew that Gary was home… this man never leaves his house.

She knocked again, this time a bit harder. "Gary? It's Lena."

This time she can hear some scuffing and noises. But after a while, the door was still not opened. Lena got impatient.

She pounded the door with both her hands, ignoring her manners and the noises she was causing for the neighbors.

"You open the door right now or I will have my bodyguard knock this open. I won't pay for the damages!"

As expected, the sound of locks clinking was heard and the door finally opened. Gary stood still, staring at a flawless Lena and a big macho bodyguard, and then back at the beautiful Lena.

"Are you sick?" Lena could see that Gary was still in his sleeping clothes, his hair was very messy, and his nose was red.

"Just a little bit." He sniffed.

Lena quickly touched his forehead in which he flinched a bit. He quickly blushed but he was already so red that it was unnoticeable.

"Just a little bit? You are so hot. Have you taken some medicine."

"It'll pass."

Lena sighed. "Kye, go buy some medicine."

"Miss, I can send Noah instead. I must stay with you at all times."

"It's fine. Noah can sit out and see the door just fine from here. Gary is a friend and he's sick, it's not like he can tackle me down."

Kye was reluctant to go but he did in the end. He glanced inside Gary's place first to make sure it was safe before leaving.

Lena entered Gary's apartment and was amazed. His apartment was very clean compared to his messy behavior.

"Where is your kitchen?"

"Why?"

"Obviously I am going to cook you something. You need to eat before you take your medicine."

Gary coughed. 'Did he just hear that correctly? Lena was going to cook for him? He was supposed to be mad at her…'

"Why do you care." He threw a baby pouting move. "You could not even bother to attend my competition."

Lena stopped being so kind and gave the man a death glare. "Are you really going to play this game with me? To see who was a worse friend?"

Gary did not respond and avoided meeting her eyes.

Lena sat down across from Gary and folded her arms. "Where were you when I called you? EH? Did you know I got kidnapped?"

Gary eyes widened. "I… I"

"Where were you when I was in the hospital hmm? What kind of friend are you to not visit me when I was on my deathbed huh?"

"AHH" Gary quickly went on his knees and kowtow to Lena. "I am wrong! I am the worst friend. I am sorry." He sniffled each time he went down.

He quickly got up and went to Lena. "Are you ok? Who took you? I will find them and revenge for you."

Lena smiled. "How? You are sick…"

"I…" Gary sneezed. "After…."

"It's fine. I already know who and I am taking care of it."

Gary quickly hugged Lena. "I am sorry." He spoke softly. "I won't get angry or ignore you again."

"Are you trying to pass your sickness to me?" Lena muffled her replied through Gary's tight hug. He let her go and rubbed his nose.

"Now… where is your kitchen?" Lena asked.

Gary pointed in the direction of his kitchen. He was too tired this morning to cook something for him. He was planning to order something for him as usual.

Lena headed to the fridge and opened it. As expected… nothing. She opened the pantries and was glad that at least he had a few things here.

"What are you going to make? Can you even cook?"

"Are you kidding me? Remember how I took so many cooking classes so I can cook for Andy?"

"Ah... you did huh." Gary chuckled. "And you didn't fail as much as Hazel, ahahahah"

Lena laughed with Gary. "Did you know she is back?" Lena asked.

"Mhm… saw it on the news."

"We should go out and eat together sometimes."

Gary stopped being happy…. He does not like Hazel. She bullied him a lot and always make fun of him. She was an evil Lena x100….
