"Alright." Zachary answered her perfunctorily, dropping her off at her door. He didn't even bother to get out of the car, signaling for her to scram. "Zachary." Yolanda looked at his indifferent profile, instinctively reaching out for his hand. "I'm sorry for making you spend so much tonight; I'll pay you back for the excess."
But she honestly didn't have that kind of money; it was just lip service.
"No need." Zachary glanced at her. Her face was swollen from Kelly's punches, her earrings and necklaces were all askew, her hair was a mess, and her clothes were stained.
He suddenly recalled what her classmates had said about her wearing all that bling. It didn't match, but she insisted on wearing them together.
They also said that despite wearing all those expensive items, she still gave off a poor vibe.
Looking at her now, they might have a point.
"Zachary." Yolanda noticed his distant gaze, even a hint of disdain. Was it because her current state was making him uncomfortable?
With that thought, Yolanda hurriedly tried to fix her hair and jewelry.
But the more she tried, the messier it got.
"I'm hurt; I won't get you out of the car." Zachary's message was clear: she could leave now.
"Well, you should get some rest when you get home." Knowing that staying wasn't going to change anything, Yolanda got out of the car, waving him off gently. "Zachary, drive safe, and when you get home, give me a,"
Before she could finish her sentence, Zachary's car had already driven off.
Attlee was in the living room enjoying a drink when he saw Yolanda walk in all disheveled. "Yoli, what happened to you? I thought you were going to a classmates gathering?"
"She must have partied too hard; I bet everyone's clothes look like this?" Olga didn't seem too bothered, taking a sip of her drink before realizing something: "Wait, where's Zachary? Why didn't he walk you in? Is he still outside? Invite him in; your dad just opened up a good bottle of wine from our neighbor."
