How Heartless Some People Can Be
Oh god Arika stop! Hahahahahahaha! Oh god I'm laughing so much that my throat is dry from laughing so much! Oh god, my ribs! My ribs! XDXDXD! Especially the knife part! Ooooh scary! Hahaha…Ahhhh…Oh boy I needed a good laugh today! Thank you Arika for such hilarious reviews that make me cry of hysterical laughter!
Anyway…You are most likely wondering why the title eh? Well you know already that Nico and Lillian will now be going on their first date to learn more about each other, RDJ and Lila will be going to dinner to meet Fred, Leandro and Hannah. Fred and Samantha are now working together to get what they want…I wonder how that will go? So without anymore discussion…let's get right to it!
Date nights! The perfect time of the week where you and your partner head out on either a night of spoils and romance. Or a cheesy movie and sit under a blanket. Or maybe you just want to lock the bedroom door and…well you know the rest!
So what does our beloved samba bird Nico have in stall for his evening tonight?
He has invited the girl he met at the bikini contest on a date at one of the most popular restaurants in Rio. And he wasn't going to spare any expense as he is a famous performer after all.
Tonight he went with wearing a white vest with a buttoned up yellow Hawaiian style shirt, with a green trilby hat and bright orange shorts to match the colour of his feathers. Not to mention he was wearing brown sandals to match the look perfectly.
"Hey Nico!" A group of girls waved at him flirtatiously whilst walking past him, and he didn't want to be rude so he shot a couple of air pistols their way with a click sound effect. Making them giggle and blush under their hands.
"Okay…Looks like she is running a little bit late? Not to worry. I'm more patient than…than…" And just like that…he instantly laid his eyes upon his lovely date for the evening.
Lillian had arrived on the scene wearing a simple lime green dress that had a cleavage split down the top part of her breasts so only the top of them were showing. She also had green shoes on that matched the dress. She also had a pink flower in her hair, and she looked absolutely gorgeous.
"Woah…" Both of them spoke at the very same time as their eyes had met each other's gaze. And they instantly began to smile giddily.
"You look…Very pretty tonight." Nico stood tall and confidently, as he had something held behind his back.
"Thank you…And you look really handsome." Lillian smiled and cupped her hands together in front of her, doing a cute pose.
"Thanks! So…shall we head inside? My friend owns the place, and they have the best burgers in the city!"
"Ooooh…I'd love to try the burgers here!" Lillian took hold of his arm and he pushed the door open to the restaurant so she could walk through first.
"After you…" He playfully winked at her, making her blush a light pink.
"Haaa…such a gentleman!"
After she walked inside, he followed her afterwards and went up to the podium where at the point nobody was standing.
The restaurant itself was very modern, with marble fireplaces and chrome windows on the far side because they were very protective of their business.
The whole 'Fine dining' theme was immaculate on so many levels. And most of the customers in there had to be either rich or splashing the cash on a big occasion.
"Wow! Nice place your friend has here!" The female canary remarked as she pulled her dress up a little bit.
"Indeed! I wonder where…"
"NICO! What's going on mi amigo?!" Suddenly a make toucan with brown eyes, black feathers, white belly and skin along with a yellow beak with a red stripe down the middle. He also had a blue outer ring around his eyes. He also wore what appeared to be a three piece suit and a smart tie. Indicating that he was the owner of the restaurant. "It's been so long since I've seen you! And you brought along a lady…"
"Hello Rafael. It has been far too long!" He gave his good friend a hug and patted him on the back. Then he placed a hand on Lillian's back to introduce her to the male toucan. "Rafi…This is Lillian! Lillian…This is the king of Carnivale! Rafael!"
"It's a pleasure to meet you Rafael."
"Oh please…call me Rafi." The male toucan raised her hand up and kissed it like a gentleman…but soon after this he got a smack on the back of his head by a female keel billed toucan.
"RAFI! What have I told you about kissing girls on their hands?! It's bad for business!" The female growled angrily at the male, who spun around with a nervous quiver.
"Eva my love! I was just…welcoming Lillian to our restaurant!" He shook in fear as the female who slapped him appeared to be his wife. Revealed to be named Eva.
"Well while you're at it, you can do the pot wash tonight! Or don't bother coming home tonight! Sorry Nico, we already reserved your V.I.P table on the top floor."
"Thank you Eva." Nico gave the female toucan a hug and followed Rafael upstairs as they climbed up the staircase to go to the private table. That Lillian was very surprised that he had.
"You have a V.I.P table?" She raised her eyebrow in curiosity.
"Technically it's mine and Pedro's. Plus RDJ has his own V.I.P table in the room opposite. And it comes with a plasma TV and mini bar. So they don't have to get up to get drinks. Considering he's more wealthier than us he does like to splash out. But at the same time, he does give some of his yearly earnings to the poor and less fortunate."
"That would explain why the people love him so much! Honestly…why would anybody want to choose Fred over his little brother? It seems RDJ has a much bigger heart than his pig headed brother does."
"That's what we've been saying for years now. But when Fred wanted Lila, he didn't get her! All because RDJ treated her like a person…not a piece of meat. RDJ was definitely the bigger man…"
"You can say that again mmmm…" For a slight moment Lillian closed her eyes and imagined what she did the other night when she was drunk with RDJ. To the point she grabbed his huge dick with both hands…biting her beak in the process…that she wasn't even looking where she was going.
"Miss! Miss! MISS…AAAAAAAAAHH!" Suddenly, a waiter blue throated macaw ended up bumping into Lillian and she accidentally knocked him over the bannisters and he landed awkwardly on his ankle. "AHHHHH! MY DAMN ANKLE AGAIN!"
"Oh fuck…" Eva noticed one of her staff members were on the floor in pain and went to call for someone. "IS THERE A DOCTOR IN THE ROOM?!"
"Oops.." Lillian luckily noticed that Nico didn't see her knock the waiter down the stairs…but he was concerned for their well being.
"Is he okay?! W-What happened?" Nico got to the top floor and looked over the edge with Rafael, but the female was quick to interject.
"Nothing! He just…fell over the bannisters!" Lillian wanted him to look away from the waiter who was being helped up by other staff members. Because she didn't want to say that she was the one who knocked him over.
"How?"
"He slipped! Can we just get to our table please? I feel like having a cocktail!" Lillian eagerly sat down and pulled out the drinks menu.
As for Nico, he took one look at the injured man, then he looked at his toucan friend and shrugged his shoulders. Before he sat down on his seat opposite of his date…so hopefully now they won't have any more interruptions…
Before We Continue The Date…Let's Briefly Check In On RDJ And Lila…
On the other side of town…RDJ insisted that he was going to meet Lila outside of her motel room before going to meet his brother.
He tonight went for a plain white shirt with navy shorts and causal shoes. Because he didn't want to be too flashy for the restaurant they intended on going to.
RDJ was sat on the bed in Lila's room, sitting on his cell phone as he was checking out the team news for the Brazil against Canada match tomorrow. And he was quite happy with the team.
"Ahhh yes! Richarlison is back from injury! Maybe Brazil will actually win today if Neymar can get a goal or two?" (Both of these are real life footballers. Just so there is no confusion.) He spoke to himself as he was scrolling through his Twitter feed.
"Did you say something to me?" Lila called out from the bathroom, as she was getting ready for the night.
"Oh no. I was just scrolling through Twitter to check the teams for tomorrow." He replied with a smile as he leaned back on the bed.
"Oh, you're going to the football match tomorrow? Who are you going with?"
"Well every year me, Nico, Pedro and Jacqueline go to watch a match in my executive box in the stadium. So we don't normally go to every match as this one is just a friendly."
"Could I come too?"
"Sure! I didn't know you were into soccer?" RDJ beamed whilst continuing to scroll through his phone.
"I'm not a huge fan of the sport. But I do like Mexico's team, and Brazil's team of course! So yeah, I'd love to go with you too." The lilac girl excitedly responded, finishing applying her makeup. "Okay, I'm ready!"
"Finally…"
"What was that?" Lila clearly heard what he said…but was playing a little with him to see how he'd react. As she smiled sinisterly from the other side of the door.
"Nothing! I just said…Finally…we might actually win tomorrow! As…you are a good luck charm!" RDJ saved it very nicely..despite his girlfriend really knowing why he responded that way.
"Hehehe…And you are also a good luck charm to me too! So…how do I look?"
The blue female stepped out of the bathroom, and she went for a pair of light blue jeans, blue shoes that her boyfriend had bought for her. And she also had a pink cotton sweater that looks real cozy.
"Wow, you look beautiful." RDJ kissed her on the cheek and put his cell phone away in his pocket.
"Thank you! And you look so handsome." She giggled softly and gave him a kiss on the beak. As they opened the door to the room. "You ready to do this?"
"Yep. Let's just get this night over and done with, so I can spend some alone time with you."
"Agreed! Why do you think Fred of all people are inviting us out to dinner? What is he up to?" She pondered in curiosity, linking arms with the muscular blue and gold man.
"I'm not sure. But whatever it is…I'm sure it's not going to be pleasant. I'm so glad you are coming with me. I don't know what I would do if you weren't by my side."
Lila blushed again behind her hand, and smiled dreamily at her beloved. "Don't worry, if he does anything to upset you…I could show him what he hasn't got."
"Oh? Example?"
"This…" He grabbed one of his hands and placed it on her chest…as she allowed him to touch one of her boobs from over her jumper. Which now made his cheeks go pink. "I would allow you to touch the real thing, but we'd be in a public place so…"
"Hehe you are honestly so amazing! I'm so lucky to have met you…"
"I feel exactly the same way…" After shutting the door to the room and Lila locked it. RDJ linked arms with her again and escorted her to the truck. But instead of getting in, they walked straight past it, which confused Lila a little. "Ummmm…we aren't taking the truck?"
"The restaurant is a ten minute walk. I figured it would save gas if we walked there. Plus…I get to spend time walking with my girlfriend." He grasped her hand and began walking side by side with her, as she giggled at how cute he was being.
They both were a little anxious about seeing Fred…but not in a good way. Only heavens knows what they are getting themselves into.
Now Let's Head Back To Nico And Lillian…
"Are you sure that the waiter is okay?" Lilian nervously asked Eva, who was standing there with a slightly annoyed look on her face. "I'm sorry…I wasn't looking where I was going…"
"He was my best waiter! Now he's gonna be off for a month!" The toucan angrily shook her head.
"I said I was sorry."
"Sorry doesn't fix it young lady!"
"Leave her alone Eva. If she says it was an accident, then it was an accident! Speak to RDJ, he might be able to help out in terms of hiring an extra helping hand around here." Nico remarked as he saw how upset his date was, at the fact he may have hurt that poor man. Eva and the other annoyed waiters walked away from the duo, who at the point couldn't help but chuckle with each other at the humouring moment. "What the hell even happened?"
"I…Was daydreaming." She didn't want to admit the real reason why she was distracted for obvious reasons. And luckily Nico didn't pressure her on telling her things she wasn't really comfortable doing so. Especially if the thoughts are personal to her.
"Well…at least we can rule out you wanting the murder someone."
"Don't rule that out just yet…" Lillian playfully joked and have him a light kick under the table.
"Can I get you two something to drink?" Rafael came back with a notepad and pencil to take down the orders of the canary duo. Who were already sure on what they wanted.
"I'll have a sex on the beach please…" Both of them said at the very same time, causing both of them to blush a little.
"Two sex on the beaches. And please try not to mix up the two orders!" Nico joked around with a cheeky nudge to his friend. Who only gave him a blank stare.
"Oh wow. Came up with that yourself did you?" He sarcastically responded and walked away from them. As they got all of the weirdness out of the way.
"They seem really nice. Have you known them long?" Lillian smiled whilst leaning back in her chair.
"Yes actually. Rafael was the first guy to dance in our first club when me and Pedro took over the joint a few years back now."
"How did you know it was him?"
"We didn't. We just heard his wife singing along with the music and everyone screamed and ran out of the club in terror." Nico explained quite bluntly…but his date thought it was a joke.
"Hehehe!" She giggled under her hand and waved it at him.
"What's so funny?" He pondered with a straight face. Despite not realising that she thought he was telling her a funny joke about the co owner of the restaurant.
"You! Saying she made everyone run away in terror! That was a really good joke."
"I wasn't joking? I was being serious." He bluntly replied. He even says it in the most straight up manner…that she felt as if she couldn't really laugh at it anymore.
"Oh you're serious? Her singing is really that terrible?"
"Let's just say when she sang the first note, all the street lamps outside exploded upon impact."
"Oh Christ The Redeemer! Well…it's a good thing you warned me in advance. Because I was going to pay her to sing something…" She beamed with a mischievous grin on her face.
"Ahhhh now, you are the one telling jokes?" He chuckled softly, feeling humoured by this.
As both of them stared deeply into each other's eyes…they were held there for a few seconds to really admire each other's presence.
Her bright green eyes that shined like the brightest gemstone. And his eyes were as brown as a light hazelnut. But just as they were about to continue their conversation…
"Here you go! Two sex on the beaches!" A waiter returned with the drinks and placed both of them on the table in front of the two of them. "May I start you two off with a couple of starters?"
"Okay…I'll start with the…calamari strips and garlic butter." Nico ordered whilst quickly making a decision on what main to have. "And I will also have the special burger."
"Excellent choice sir! And for the madam?"
"May I please have the soup of the day? What is the soup of the day?" Lillian asked the waiter, who smiled at her kindly.
"So it's leek and potato soup. With salt and pepper to garnish, along with just a hint of oregano."
"Oooh, sounds great! Also, may I have the paella for my main course?"
"Of course madam! That's a great choice too. I'll be right back with your starters!" The male pink macaw walked away with his notebook and pencil to head off toward the kitchen. Leaving the two canaries alone to talk.
"So…Nico, please tell me about your family?" Lillian asked him sweetly as she stirred her drink with her straw.
"Well…I don't have any brothers or sisters. Or any cousins apart from one. She lives in São Paulo, being a part time singer." He responded with a smile as he clinked glasses with her. "I never really knew my mom. She pretty much gave me up for adoption when I was a kid. And my dad ran out on us when I was 4. So I don't really have any recollection of my dad being in my life. That's about it really?"
"Oh…I'm so sorry. That must have been really tough?" She smoothly cooed and placed a hand on top of his. As he held onto her hand gently.
"It was…but that's when I met Pedro in a bar one night waiting tables at a club that his family owned. I told them I was an orphan and they took me in, raised me, and me and Pedro by law are technically brothers. But we always preferred to be called best friends."
"That's quite the story I must say? So you and Pedro have known each other for most of your life?"
"Absolutely! I mean…I can't even remember a time where we wouldn't even be walking past each other without giving each other a fist bump." Nico beamed after drinking some of his drink. "Mmmm, so…how about you? What are your family like?"
"Well my dad was always working a lot, so I barely got to see him a large majority of the time. And my mom was always with her friends and clients drinking wine and watching tv. So I pretty much spent most of my days by myself…which I got bullied for quite a lot of the time." Lillian explained as she too had some of her drink.
"I'm sorry to hear that. That must have been a tough thing to go through. But hey, we are both here now? And we are having a good night!"
"We are indeed. And you know what? I'd like to propose a toast!" Lillian beamed as both of them raised their glasses at the same time. "To new faces, and new beginnings!"
"New faces and new beginnings!" They clinked glasses again and drank some more of their cocktail. Only to then be taken out of their thoughts when their starters had already arrived in front of them. "Ooooh yes! Looks amazing!"
"The chef is the best in all of Rio!" The waiter replied as he nodded to the canaries and walked away. As they had started to tuck in to their beautiful delicacies.
But Before We See How The Main Course Goes…Let's Check Back In On RDJ And Lila…
We will now return to the very same sea food restaurant that Fred took Lila on a date to a few weeks ago when they first met. Only this time, it's more of a family dinner rather than a date night.
Fred was wearing a polo shirt and chinos, along with blue boat shoes that matched his look. He even decided to put on his best cologne that was pretty expensive. But he received it as a gift a few months ago from a girl he was having a sexual fling with.
Leandro appeared to be wearing a full suit and tie like he was a character out of a James Bond movie. Along with his second wife Hannah, who was wearing a beautiful sparkly red strapless dress. That was quite tight on her body, which did get a few stares from creepy drunk perverts at the bar.
"Where is that little prick?!" The hybrid man didn't have the time or patience to be dealing with any nonsense. Gripping some kind of folder that he held in his hands. "We said 7pm right?"
"Yes. Will you relax son? He will be here…he's just like his mother…gullible…weak…pathetic! How could Lila have chosen him over you! You are twice the man he is!" Leandro was really slating his younger son to Fred, that both of them had shared a brief laugh…however Hannah was not really feeling laughter in herself. "What's the matter with you honey? You thinking about something?"
"I just think you two are being a little too mean to him. He may not be my blood son, but I'd still like to think of him as my son?" The scarlet female was quite relaxed about the way she thinks of RDJ…but Fred wasn't very happy about this.
"Maybe you shouldn't come to dinner with us mom! You might screw everything up for us!" Fred pointed a finger at her angrily.
"Me?! I just want what's best for everyone, and that nobody gets hurt in this scenario! Please just…don't go through with the plan! Just…Just try and do your own things and leave him alone? I don't want to seem like the villain here."
"Where is all of this coming from? You were adamant a couple weeks ago on the plan?" Leandro was equally as surprised, and suddenly joined Fred by his side. With both of them standing opposite a saddened Hannah.
"I just think you two are making unnecessary decisions that could impact someone's life here! Isn't it enough he already lost his mom? Now you want to make him…"
"I told you RDJ, you look absolutely fine!"
The sound of Lila's voice instantly got Leandro and Fred excited, that the older blue and gold man shushed his own wife. Whilst they anxiously await to see their family member arrive with his girlfriend.
"You sure my hair isn't a little messy?" Lila asked her boyfriend as he planted a kiss on her cheek.
"You look beautiful. Don't worry about…" RDJ was about to finish his sentence, but then he was rudely interrupted when Leandro got in between the couple and wrapped an arm around his son. Which surprised him a lot.
"Hey there my boy! It's great to see you after so many years! How are you?" He spoke with a lot of arrogance but was trying to make it sound genuine…but his son knew it wasn't.
"I'm fine. I see you have met my GIRLFRIEND Lila?" He emphasised on the word 'Girlfriend' particularly, because he knew it would anger both his brother and father. But despite them biting the bottom of their beaks to stop them from shouting enraging words…they tried to stay calm at the purpose of getting through the dinner. "So, are we using my V.I.P table or what?"
"You have a V.I.P table?" Lila was a little shocked to say the least. But she was rather impressed he managed to get his own table at one of the most expensive restaurants in South America. But that wasn't what attracted her to him. Because unlike some girls, money doesn't attract her…it's the personality that's important to her. Looks are just an added bonus. Which luckily for her…her bonus points are through the roof.
"Yeah well, the fishery couldn't deliver them any stock a few months ago after they found out their was sewage dumped in their rivers. So the fish came out dead or rotten before catching them. So they had to pay an extra $200 to a company in Argentina to supply them with what they needed. But luckily for me, I knew a guy who worked on the docks of Sydney Harbour who owed me a great favour after I invested in his wife's nail salon in Sydney. So he now delivers fish here for free. No extra cost! So they gave me a V.I.P table, and once a week I get a free main course and desert for me and a plus four." RDJ explained the good deed he had done for not only a struggling family out in Australia, but a restaurant that was struggling financially due to lack of deliveries. This made Lila smile so dreamily at him…Hannah also was impressed by his kind heart.
However Fred and Leandro were secretly gagging and rolling their eyes. "Just like your whore of a mother…" Leandro whispered to himself…thinking nobody heard him.
"What was that honey?" Hannah clearly heard him, and didn't think it was right the way he was mocking his ex wife. Despite the fact he was having an affair with her behind RDJ's mother's back.
"I said he reminds me more of his mother! Come on honey use your ears." He rudely spoke to her and tried to wrap his other arm around Lila, but she slapped it away and hid by her boyfriend fearfully. "Oooh shy one aren't you?"
"No! I just don't like people I don't know putting their arms on me!" Lila defended herself, wrapping an arm around RDJ's lower back. "Can we please just go inside?"
"Sure. Ladies first!" RDJ opened the door like a gentleman, allowing Lila and Hannah to walk inside first.
"Thank you RDJ." Hannah thanked him politely as he followed the ladies in first. She wasn't even that shocked by the way he was acting. Because a lot of people speak very highly of the blue and gold man.
However Fred and Leandro stood in the hallway to try and finalise some last minute team talk.
"Right…So we sit down at the table and we just talk about him. And we pretend like we give a shit about his mother. Then when the second course is finished, we slap the papers on the table for him to sign. And hopefully he is so distracted that he doesn't even realise what he's actually just signed. Did I get that right?" Leandro was making sure he understood the plan to a T. So he had to explain every single detail to confirm that he was indeed talking about the right thing.
"You got it dad! And as soon as he signs the papers…then he will be so vulnerable that Lila will assume how pathetic and weak he is! It's absolutely perfect!" Fred and his dad shared a brief laugh and pat each other on the back, as they made they way over to RDJ, Lila and Hannah. Who were already sat in their seats at the V.I.P table. And Lila was confident that she wanted the seat closest to the wall, and asked Hannah if she could sit opposite of her. With her boyfriend sitting on the seat next to her. To stay away from the other two creepy guys. "Hey? Why are you wearing a sweater this evening? It's probably so…hot outside…" He creepily spoke to Lila whilst staring at her boobs. But she crossed her arms and glared at him.
"Let's just cut the crap here Fred! Why did you really want to invite my boyfriend out to dinner?" The lilac female used the word boyfriend again in a strong tone to really piss the hybrid male off. Especially when she wore a sweater to cover her cleavage, to stop him from glaring at her large breasts.
"Straight to the point eh? I like that in a woman…"
"Stop flirting with my girlfriend brother!" RDJ threatened him whilst pointing his fingertip at him menacingly.
"Calm down mother killer. It was only a jo…"
SLAP!
"HE DID NOT KILL HIS MOM!" Lila angrily growled and slapped him across the face really hard.
"Again…it was a joke!" Fred rubbed his sore cheek and took the papers out from behind his back and placed them down on the table as Fred and Leandro sat on the table opposite the young couple.
"What are they?" RDJ took the papers from his brother…as he sinisterly smiled at the muscular blue and gold man.
"Just some papers that we need you to sign my boy! Nothing of that importance. Just take this pen and sign them." His father was trying to force him to sign the papers…but Lila took them gently from her partner and began reading the fine print.
A few seconds of her reading the main part of the papers passed by…and pretty soon…she began to shake in anger. "You want him to sign the rights of the beach house and business over to you?!"
"WHAT?!" Her beloved also looked closer at the words printed on the contract. "What is this?! Why do you want me to sign the rights over?!"
"Well…you obviously didn't expect to carry on living in a beach house by yourself now did you? As well as running a business, being a judge in a bikini contest, co owning a pizzeria, motel, restaurant and helping a few others out with money troubles?" Leandro smugly explained, tapping his hand on the table.
"So…this is why you invited me to dinner? Not because you wanted a family dinner…but because you want to take everything my mom left me…"
"It wasn't meant for you little bro! Amber clearly left it to…" Fred cut in abruptly…and this was the breaking point for RDJ after yet again he was ridiculing his mother.
"IT'S MOM! IT'S FUCKING MOM! NOT AMBER! NOT THAT LADY! NOT THAT PERSON! SHE WAS OUR MOTHER!" The rage built up inside of him was really taking control, that he smacked both of his hands on the table and he snapped the table leg off in his rage.
"Wow son. Calm yourself down before you hurt yourself. You are making a scene and embarrassing your family…" Leandro carried on belittling his son, as if he meant nothing to him. And this wasn't helping to calm the situation down.
"You…You really are a piece of work aren't you?! No wonder mom didn't love you anymore!"
"You watch your tone when speaking to your father!"
"You are no father of mine! You don't deserve the title of father to me! Sitting here…and by the way I've got nothing against you Hannah…" He briefly looked at the scarlet female with a kind face…as she wasn't really feeling happy about what her husband was doing. In fact…she had the exact same feeling as Lila. As she was showing a lot of concern for the blue and gold man. "But you completely destroyed my mom!"
"Yeah I did! I destroyed that bitch every night…and that's how you were created…" This little snarky comment caused his son to get up from the table and lunge towards him. But Lila held him back to stop him from hitting his father. "Yeah that's right! Get your little girlfriend to protect you! Because you are used to women fighting your battles for you!" He mocked him more and more, loving to watch his blood boil.
"At least it's better than cheating on your woman who's loved you their entire life! Again…no disrespect Hannah…"
"Call her mom, jeez!" Fred rolled his eyes whilst cockily grinning at him.
"She is not my mom! Amber Santos was my mom! And I am RDJ Santos! The proud son of Amber, and I will continue to fulfil her legacy. So both of you can take this contract, and shove it up your fucking ass! Because I am done here! And you are not getting a single dollar from me! Let's go sweetheart!" He extended his hand and Lila adamantly took hold of it and she also took the contract along with her.
"Hey? What are you doing with that?" Fred was concerned about the fact the duo were walking past a fireplace. But after the lilac girl threw the contract into the fire, his eyes widened in horror. "NO! THAT WAS MY ONLY COPY?!"
"Tough shit pig!" Lila turned around and spat at the surfer in disgust.
As RDJ and Lila headed for the exit, Leandro spoke up and glared at his son. "You are gonna realise that you should have taken our deal son! That I can promise you!"
He stopped in his tracks and turned around to face him…as the whole restaurant had fallen silent. Staring at this scene either excited to see the drama…or curious to see how far it would go.
"You know…growing up I wanted a father figure you know? Someone to look up to…someone to motivate me when I felt like I wasn't good enough. Someone to wipe away my tears when I didn't win something. To tell me that all you can do is try. Someone to talk to me about sex, and what I needed to do when being myself! But I never had any of that…"
Leandro could only look at him with a straight face…and you couldn't really tell but…he was indeed listening to every single word.
"All I wanted was a dad! A dad who would support me whenever I needed him. A dad who would come to all my soccer practices. A dad who would cheer me on when riding my first wave. And a dad who actually had enough love in his heart for both of his sons. Not just the first one he had!" RDJ had tears rolling down his cheeks whilst explaining this…you could imagine the high level of pain in his heart. "But you know…my mom was there for me! She was both my mom and my dad! And Jacqueline…she was like the sister I never had! And to be honest, she is more like my sister than Fred is as a brother!"
"A sister who you were probably fucking every night in the beach house…" Fred was really loving the fact that his brother was so upset.
"No he wasn't! And to be honest, if you even tried to fuck a girl, your dick would be too small to spot. Even with the hobble telescope!" Lila rudely added…as the guests in the restaurant did laugh a little. But not loudly as they wanted to hear RDJ finish what was on his mind.
"And you know what? I turned out pretty fucking good! I have a big group of friends who are there for me no matter what, as they are for me! I have a great home and great businesses that are helping me and my friends be more stable in this day and age! I also have an amazing girlfriend…who I believe…" He briefly glances deeply into her purple eyes dreamily, as she laid her head on his chest. "Is the best thing that's ever happened to me! So with that…I say goodbye to you…Leandro!"
He immediately stormed out of the restaurant with Lila and slammed the door shut. As the customers instantly turned on the older blue and gold man…who at this point was stunned into silence.
"Boy…I thought he was gonna go on forever!" Fred groaned wiped his nose with his arm. "I'm gonna take a piss then we will go back and order pizza…"
He got up from his chair to head off towards the bathroom…but as for his father…he stood there silently…without moving a single muscle.
Hannah noticed the way he was staring into thin air…and now she was showing concern for him. "Honey…are you okay? Honey?"
"Yeah…Yeah I just…Ummm…I'm gonna go take a walk. I'll…I'll get a cab back home okay?" He kissed her on the beak and gradually slipped away from his wife. Who couldn't help but stare at him worryingly…as she now noticed him leaving the restaurant.
Whatever was going through his mind…it had to do with what his son had said to him. And when he did say this…it must have really hurt him…but why?
Now Let's Head Back To Nico And Lillian…
"Are you serious?! He ate the entire chilli?" Lillian was giggling so much that she was choking on her paella.
"Yep! He wanted to impress a girl who moved here for a couple months. And she was a big fan of spicy food. So he ate an entire ghost chilli to impress her, and then five seconds later he was screaming for ice cream or milk hehe!" Nico chuckled after finishing his main course.
"Why would eating a chilli improve his chances of getting laid?"
"You'd be surprised what lengths he would go to."
"So…how is it that you are single? I'm a bit shocked that a big star like you doesn't have a woman by his side." Lillian beamed as she finished with her meal. "Mmm…I do love a paella!"
"Well…maybe you should come over to my place this weekend? I can make a real mean paella." The canary smiled as he waved the waiter down to get the cheque for them.
"Oh really? Does it bully you a bit?" She playfully joked…which he didn't get straight away.
"Wait no…Oh…you were joking? You cheeky devil…" He winked at her as she blushed a light pink.
"Anyway…I was actually going to ask you something."
"Sure Nico, what's up?"
"Well me and the guys are going to the soccer match tomorrow, and we are watching it from RDJ's private box. Do you want come with us?" Nico asked as he put a few notes down on the bill including a tip.
"Well…I'm not really into football myself but…sure! Can I bring Sofia along too?" She hopefully asked…despite being well aware of the argument between her best friend and Pedro may not die down by then.
"Are you sure that's a good idea? I mean…they didn't exactly walk away on friendly terms did they?"
"I know but…maybe this is what they both need!" Lillian stood up on her feet and Nico followed suit as they were prepared to leave the restaurant. "So, what do you say?"
"I mean…I'm okay with it? We will have to see what…"
GRRRRLLLBBBBBBB…
"Oooh god…" Nico instantly clutched his stomach and felt a loud growl.
"Are you feeling alright?"
"Yeah…I just…I…I gotta use the restroom!" Nico instantly covered his beak and ran off to find a male bathroom to vomit in. Causing his date to feel concern, as she went after him to check on him.
But as she slipped away to help her date…a chuckling scarlet macaw wearing a black dress leaned up against the podium. Holding some dollars in her hand.
One of the sous chef's came out of the kitchen and she slipped him the money when nobody was around. "Thanks for undercooking his dinner…here's the money I promised you!"
As they exchanged nods, he slipped back into the kitchen to rejoin the chefs as that it appeared that he hadn't left at all. But as for the scarlet girl, who you clearly knew had to have been Samantha…she swiftly pulled out her cellphone and went through a checklist of things that she had to do. After her little cooperation with Fred was well underway.
"Step 1 – Ruin Lillian's date with Nico…Check! Step 2 – Start a fight with Lila in public and rip her clothes? Oooh…now this one I like!" She giggled mischievously and put her cell phone back into her purse. "Soon…they will all regret when they messed with us! I will be the winner of the bikini contest…and Fred will win the surf competition! Everybody is a winner! Hahahahaha!"
Now things are getting interesting aren't they? RDJ and Lila found out that the only reason they were invited to dinner was because Leandro and Fred wanted RDJ to sign the rights of the beach house and businesses over to them. And Hannah was feeling quite sorry for the younger man, who is once again defending his late mother's legacy. He also stood up to his father and really let him have it! And about bloody time too!
Also let's not forget that Nico and Lillian had a really great first date right? A lot of cute moments in there, some laughs and jokes that were really funny. Also Lillian knocking a waitress over the bannisters. Plus, Rafael and Eva finally have a cameo in the story! Unfortunately they are only available for very few scenes, so they won't be recurring characters in the story.
