Chapter 8

At night, Mattheo and Thomas together with their new team. Leaving Micah on her own in the office. Mattheo even want to back out but held himself. He don't want Micah to be ridiculed again. Mattheo just wanted to sigh. It was getting hard for him as he always see Micah. Since the day that they met, his day won't end up needing a cold shower. Remembering that night is quite funny but memorable. It will be hard for him to stay professional, he knows for himself that he really can't. With Micah's charm it is impossible if her male co-agents does not feel anything towards her especially Vincent Torralba who always mock and made fun of her. He felt that even though, Vincent is mocking her there is something in his eyes that tells him that Vincent like her.

They rode his landrover and Vincents Fortuner to go to the bar. It's just 30 minutes away from their agency.

'La Sangre' Bar that's name of the bar they go to. It's kind of creepy with the bar name but it looks decent. A normal to go to club.

"So guys, this is your tickets. I just want to remind you that we can't enter the VIP area as we only have a regular customize tickets," Lara reminded them.

"This bar is kind of strict with their laws while VIP can go to our area, still doesn't mean we can go to theirs," Jane shrugged nonchalantly.

They all nodded and make their way to the entrance. They were even frisked before they can enter. There's even a female frisker for women. When they enter the main hall, it was a trypical party and wild bar. They make way to an empty table and sit there. There's also waiters coming and going so they don't have to fret about ordering.

"This bar is quite nice," Thomas compliments. "It's only now that I've seen this. I bet this quite popular too."

Jane laughs. "Actually, we were invited here last night so we're given a complimentary ticket to welcome us. We jus realize how great this bar is."

"Yeah, and I think this bar is only here for two or three years now. We can't just come here because we heard that it has a very strict rules," Lara butts in.

"Anyway, let's just enjoy the night, guys!" Vincent shouted.

They ordered their drinks and started to chill. They were on the table near the bar so they can see who come and go. Mattheo just sit on the couch with Thomas and Vincent while five of them dance in the dance floor. While Mattheo is drinking he set his eyes on the entrance. There entered a very peculiar person. While it is a given if you wear a revealing dress. But this person more likely a woman wears a black hooded jacket and a fitted denim pants. It is very weird coming to this place in that kind of attire. Mattheo doesn't see her face but there is something familiar with her. She makes her way on the bar and sit on a high stool.

"A shot of tequila please," said a pleasant voice of the woman.

He frowned. "Micah," he almost whispered.

"What?" Thomas asked confused.

"Nothing," was all he said but straightly looked at the girl.

"Is that Micah?" Vincent suddenly asked.

"Huh, where?" Thomas asked looking around.

"I'm not sure either," Mattheo said.

"Micah!" Vincent called out but it seems the hooded girl doesn't hear him.

She suddenly stood up then walked on the dancefloor. She easily mixed to the crowd easily losing their sight on the woman.

"I'm sure that's Micah," Vincent said frowning.

"But why didn't she greet us?" Thomas confusedly ask.

He shook his head. Wanting to get the feeling that Micah is doing something without the agency's permission.

"We might be mistaken, she said she had something going on," Vincent told them.

"Yeah," Mattheo said weakly but his eyes rounds the area in case he saw the hooded girl again. And his eyes never fail him,he saw her going upstair. "I'll just go to the rest room, you guys continue," he said before standing.

Mattheo follow the girl upstairs. It is said to be the VIP lounge. So far there is no security around. He freely follow the hooded girl and finally saw her again going upstairs again. It confused the hell out of him. But he still follow. It was huge lounge with mostly rooms. Mattheo saw her entering a room near an elevator. He don't know but he has the instincts to follow her inside. But---

"What are you doing here?" A very deep baritone voice ask from behind him

"I---," he don't even know what to say. He looked behind him to see a bouncer. "I'm actually looking for the restroom?"

"Which area are you from?" The bouncer asked.

"I'm from the 1st floor," he calmly said but deep inside it was chaotic that he don't even know what to do.

The bouncer frowned. "The restroom in the 1st floor is near the entrance of the club. You should go there," he said not even caring if he's in dire need of going to the restroom already.

He saw him looking at the door where the girl amd entered. And for a moment, he felt scared for her. Then, looked at him with a serious face.

"Next time that you enter 'La Sangre', don't come upstairs. You will be banned if you repeat the same mistake again. For now, treat this as a warning," he said and pushed him to go downstair.

Meanwhile, behind them the hooded girl grinned as if she does something out of the ordinary. Then her phone rang. She answered it.

"Inside my office now, troublemaker," the person on the phone tell her even before she can say "hello".

She groaned. "On my way already," she drawls and laughs.

She's sure that the person is angry right now and it is not enough to just tell her to don't do it again. She hangs up the phone, unveiled her hood and walk to the elevator while grinning. She wants to annoy that person badly right at the moment.

Meanwhile, after Mattheo went to the washroom and went back to their table. He's still thinking about what happened awhile ago. He's thinking that the girl deliberately do this to follow her.

"Fuck," he cussed before drinking his vodka straight.

"Hey, man, you okay?" Thomas asked. Lara and Jane are already there and the other two people they came with.

"Yeah, just thinking of something," Mattheo said and continue to drink.

He doesn't actually have the mood to enjoy their celebration. He keeps thinking about Micah and the hooded girl. Or even he don't know if they are the same person. It gets a whole lot of thinking to do.
