Hollywood Zenith



" I could jump out the window if you like." Samuel offered the best solution. Although it was high, he was confident he could make it.

" What! And leave me alone here!? How can I ever face her again!?" Kate immediate grabbed Samuel's hand fearing he would just vanish again beside she needed now the most!

" What if I carry you and we both jump out the window together?"

" Have you lost your mind?" She didn't know if he was joking or not looking at his serious expression. For a second she was ready to accept his proposal but she didn't want to die early!

So what her best friend had seen her fool around with a stranger? It's not like Kate hadn't dated before right? She even met few of Bella's boyfriends over the years but she felt the most depressing issue was that, Samuel was a lot younger than her.

It's not like Kate and Bella had that much dating history to begin with, they were both very career driven since graduating. Which was why it was harder for Kate to make any excuses why she was suddenly involved with a young man and even if she was her biggest sin was she hid it from her best friend! Kate knew she would definitely get flack for it.

" Come on. There is no point mulling over it. I will handle everything." Samuel grabbed Kate's hand and started heading out. He was waiting for his boner to die down which was natural since they got interrupted in such a spectacular manner.

Unlike her first few relationship where she didn't know what was going on, she kept off intimacy off the table until she knew the person was genuine. It didn't take long for most of the men that were interested in her to back off knowing they couldn't get in her pants without any major commitment.

It was something Bella had criticized Kate for extensively, it's not like she wanted her best friends to be an easy woman but if she didn't even give anyone a chance how would she going to find anyone?

At first she thought Kate would come around when they went to college but she never gave anyone a chance. There were few guys that took interest in her but they were put off by her tendency to curse every hour. She never became someone that they could bring home to meet the family. Not to mention her love of drinking only made things worse! It was off-putting for them to accept that your girlfriend could out drink you at parties!

But still Bella thought it would be alright, they were still in their mid twenties. There were plenty of time right? No! She finally gave up when they started the business together. Even her dating life took a nose dive because they never thought running a business would be so demanding with their time.

Especially a bar that was most crowded on weekends. Even if Bella spot any cute guys there was no time for her to mingle because she was manning the kitchen all night! Kate got even worse, she completely disregarded her personal life and gave her all to put the bar on the map!

There was also the issue of her adopting tenants or more like 'kids' as they would call them. It made Bella realize that Kate who was looking after these students was slowly becoming more and more like an aunt to them. It was especially true with Dhia who really looked up to her like a second mother.

Kate was barely thirty, how did she suddenly became a mother!? Bella felt it was wrong but seeing how much Kate enjoyed taking care of kids, she didn't have heart to discuss it with her. It was definitely hurting her image because Dhia used to come here often with her friends and she definitely acted older and appropriately not to embarrass her niece.

Which was highly suspicious when she factored in these things, there was only one probable answer.

" They definitely knew each other!" 

Even before Samuel and Kate made their appearance, Bella had cemented her position on the matter! She was already one step ahead of them!
