Chapter 28: The Dinner


    Frieze was up early morning with a notebook where addresses and phone numbers of different owners


    of apartments have been mentioned. These apartments were near her office and Alex, her colleague


    was happy to offer her help. Alex is a resident of Kay City from a very long time and is familiar with the


    costs of housing within the city. He is the ountant for ABX Corporation since the time thepany


    opened its branch in Kat City not long than ten years ago. He is one of Frieze’s senior in thepany


    but they became good friends during their financial meetings for sries of hired employees. They got


    along well. Alex’s boyfriend Peter also works in the samepany but also works as a part time model


    for several advertisements. Peter was also a model in contract for Dori’s mother’s cosmetic brand for


    two long years. After he moved in with Alex, he was able to stabilize himself with several jobs in hand


    andnded with a stable job in hispany although he continued his passion for modeling. Alex met


    her near office and showed her around. They also looked up the addresses that Frieze had with her


    trying to find a good deal.


    There were three houses that she liked but the price quote was too high. She had to ask for a half day


    leave from office as she did not want to go to office until she is satisfied looking for a house. She found


    it harder than she thought. There was only was house remained and that was in Alex’s apartment. Alex


    and his boyfriend lived on the fifteenth floor while Frieze decided to rent the apartment in another block


    of the same apartment but on the first floor. She does not like lower floors but she had no option. With


    Alex and Peter around, she would havepany to go to in case she needed support or help of any


    kind. Peter was quick to talking to the owner and Frieze was already guilty of taking so many favors


    from these two men. She did not want to bring Teresa and Simon along as she was afraid that they


    would tell Idri about her new home. She really didn’t want him to know anything about her right after


    she leaves. She simply wishes to disappear that will eventually help her forget him. After a long


    discussion on the house along with several arguments of bargaining, Frieze settled with a good rented


    apartment. Though it had only a single room with an attached bathroom along with a main hall having


    an attached kitchen, she was still happy with the amount of space the house had. It also had a balcony


    facing the open parking space and the road following it. All she had to do was to buy some furnitureN?velDrama.Org is the owner.


    and set everything in their respective ces. The owner requested for one day for making the rent


    agreement for Frieze. Alex convinced him a great deal to finish the formalities sooner. They were


    alreadyte for office and exhausted. Peter refused to go to office and called in a sick day already.


    Frieze still wanted to go to office to work. Alex had no option but to join her since they had toplete


    the whole set of CTCs for the newly hired employees. She also had to send the interview details and


    offer letters to many of the candidates who were interviewed recently. As she sat on her office chair,


    she was happy that she finally got a house just fifteen minutes away from office. She could take a cab


    or ask Peter or Alex to pick her up. Now that they were in the same apartment premises, they could


    also go together to office. But, she was still worried until she sees the house agreement right in her


    hand. Alex promised her that he would collect it along with the keys so that she could go on ordering


    for the furniture. She would be having a hectic time shifting to the new apartment. She was d that


    Peter and Alex were there to help her out with it.


    It was evening already and her shift was already over. Alex came in and asked her to join him for


    dinner. He informed her Peter would be directlying to the restaurant as he needed a change of


    clothes he felt. Being a model, he liked being in style even while dining out. On the other hand, Alex did


    not care about his looks. As long as Peter liked him, he was least bothered about other peoples’


    judgements and opinions. Alex told her to join, feeling guilty, she said she wants to go home and


    change first too. She stinks of fish with all of house hunting and still wearing the same clothes for more


    than twelve hours. Alex was happy to take her to her house and then back again to the restaurant


    where Peter would be already waiting. Peter had already booked a table for three. On the way, Frieze


    quickly called Rose informing about her dinner n and not to prepare dinner for her. Rose was happy


    that she was going out. She opened her cupboard and took out a dress for her that she used to wear


    when she was younger. She often thought of letting Frieze try few of her dresses of the yester


    generation imagining her ssic look. Frieze agreed to wear anything she chose for her and requested


    her to keep it ready as she would be in a hurry already.


    Dori already shifted and was with Idri in his room. They were waiting for Julie to call them for dinner.


    Meanwhile, Rose waited in the guest room for Frieze with one of her old dresses that still looked brand


    new. Frieze and Alex walked fast into the room. Rose stood up with a ‘Tadahhhhhh’ showing the sequin


    ck dress in front of her. She had no idea that Rose had a collection of this sexy dress. It was little


    short and sleeveless. Frieze has never worn such a dress before. Alex pped and jumped as he saw


    the dress. He could not control his mouth and spoke excitingly, “You mother inw is wild. Frieze, you


    will be attracting several handsome men at the restaurant today. Now I wish I was notmitted. Don’t


    tell Peter…Shhhh….”


    Rose already knew about Alex being gay. Frieze has mentioned a lot about him. Alex is handsome and


    Peter too. But, she was happy to see that Frieze has good friends in the city. They both talked for a


    while. Frieze took a shower and put the dress on. It was short and her cleavage was showing. She was


    too shy toe out of the bathroom until Rose pulled her by force. Alex was already ready with a hair


    dryer and ab to put a nice hairstyle for her. He decided to put a bun so that her backless dress


    gives her the sexy look. Rose gave her a light makeup look just to enhance the beauty of the dress.


    Frieze was shocked to see herself in the mirror. She looked hot and no more the cute pretty woman.


    Rose and Alex were proud of their aplishments. Julie stood there outside the room informing


    about dinner being ready. She was mesmerized to see the hostess this pretty. Sheplimented her


    and went back to help in serving the dinner.
