The dumb and dumber in question just grimaced and said nothing.Onita now looked at Alicia with even more admiration and pulled her aside and whispered,"I am calling dibs!Which one of these hotties is your boyfriend?I am taking the other one!I am not choosy!either will do."Alicia looked at Onita in amus.e.m.e.nt and whispered back,"Choose any.I don"t care either way."
Onita"s eyes which were big to begin with went all the more bigger!"You don"t care.Does that mean out of both these hotties,you are not interested in either.?"
"No..Their elder brother is mine though...So do not look there when the time comes...",replied Alicia still ignoring the two brothers who were now growing restless.
Onita kept staring at the two and then at Alicia as if she was watching a tennis match and then breather,"There is another from the same mould?wow wow wow.Today is my lucky day!"
Onita pasted a big smile on her face and said,"h.e.l.lo hotties.My name is Onita and I hope your"s is not dumb and dumber.I am Alicia"s bff.Though I can a.s.sure you if that is your name,you will have to change it before I agree to date you.."
Ah Hai,who could not get used to being approached by women could feel his face flus.h.!.+Neil just laughed at the eccentric girl and said,"Indeed my name is dumb and the one on my side is dumber.And your name should be Beautiful but Onita suits you as well.And I am Ms Grouchy"s original bff."
This statement caused an unexpected reaction from Onita,"Huh!You are gay!"Her face had also transformed as if she would cry any minute.
Shocked at the sudden and unfound accusation Neil gaped at Onita.Like attracts like!Of course Alicia"s new friend could not have been normal.."Uhh..Ms Onita..may I ask how you reached this wonderfully wrong conclusion?Though let me clarify what anybody does in their bedroom or wherever is not my business as long it"s consensual.How did the topic move to my s**ual orientation?"
Embara.s.sed at her blunder,Onita stuttered,"I meant a straight guy is not usually bff"s with a beutiful girl like my idol!"Onita did not know where to look.She had made a fool of herself.But Neil being the good guy he was,quickly comforted Onita and said,"You are right Ms Onita,A great guy like me is still single..would you like to be my girlfriend!I refuse to be your friend only..otherwise people will really believe that I sway the other way!So please be my girlfriend!"Onita let out a girlish giggle and was at this point blus.h.i.+ng furiously.Ah Hai,who stood on the other side felt like rolling his eyes at his brother!
Onita was totally charmed by Neil,to the point of mindlessly agreeing to what he said next."So Ms Onita,I heard Al offer you a ride home.I hitched a ride here with my younger brother.Why don"t I ask him to drop you home and Al will drop me to my destination.It was wonderful meeting you.I hope you will consider my offer...I am sincere in my attentions towards you."
By the time Onita realized that she did not need a lift as she already had her own car,Ah Hai had already driven out of the parking lot with her in the pa.s.senger seat..
Feeling Alicia"s burning gaze on him,Neil turned and said,"Al my pal,I have come all the way to see you and all I get is a glare!My throat is parched..please let us get some coffee!"
Alicia turned back towards the canteen without uttering a word while Neil followed silently.Once seated,Alicia continued to stare at Neil who was looking around with interest.Finally losing patience Alicia knocked her fingers on the table and said,"Neil!"
Looking at his best friend,Neil just sighed deeply and began,"Ryu in back here now In Country A but.."
Before he could finish his sentence,Alicia was already out of the chair and running towards the car.She needed to see her hubby!However,she was jerked to a stop before she could run further."Al,listen to me before you run."
Opting for a quiet place,Neil guided Alicia towards her car and they sat inside.Alicia was staring at Neil impatiently and said,"Faster Neil!You need to talk faster."
Neil just shook his head,"Then just listen and do not interrupt.You know now that Ryu planned the accident to get rid of w.a.n.g Wei.Even though Ryu had jumped out of the vehicle,he had sustained a few injuries.When he woke up from the injury,all was fine and he as discharged.With all the sudden collaborations,the accident and then the investigations about Leona Knight"s death,I wondered why he never asked about you.Then you said that he had not contacted you but had been talking to Ru daily and I got more worried.Finally I confronted him and then his behavior had slowly changed and ot was then that he confessed.He couldn"t recognize the people he had met in the past year.We went back to the hospital and had a series of tests.It seems that there was a blood clot in his brain which moved when the accident happened and was pressing on his membrane and which had caused him temporary amnesia.Al!Don"t look as if the world is collapsing!It is curable and that too without surgery.I wanted to be sure before I said anything to you.The doctor"s have already started the medication and once that clot is thinned out and cleared,his memory will hopefully not be suppressed.Al,the biggest problem currently is not that he does not remember you.I tried telling him about you but he refuses to listen.He has reverted to his old cold self even more cold if possible.The problem we are facing is he is now scared to remember you!His biggest fear before the accident was losing you and now that it has happened I think he is scared of facing you!Al!You have to woo back and seduce your hubby.I have brought him here.Now the rest is upto you!I"ll tell you more in detail later...let us go there first before he wakes up.I had to sedate him.."
