While they talked he played with Joanna's cell phone which was in his possession.
He waited for them to stop talking before he spoke up. "Big Sis, you and Brother Amos promised to take out, can we do that today?" He asked politely.
"Today?" Amos and Anthony's half yelled. They stared at each other, surprised that they shared the sa thoughts.
"Grandma will be coming soon. I don't know when I would have ti to spend with the two of you…," The car jerked to a halt, causing all of them to hit their back against the seat.
He tilted his head and stared at Anthony, "Your Grandma is coming?" He asked with widened eyes.
"Yes," He replied innocently. He didn't understand why Amos looked so astounded. Amos turned and gaze at the lady sitting by his side. Staring at her he wondered why she looked so calm after the news she heard.
"Stop looking at like that because I will be fine from her torture this ti around. I promise you," Joanna said. Although she sounded confident, she wasn't certain how she was gonna do that when her powers are gone.
She was optimistic even though the possibility of her defending herself from the vicious woman was almost impossible.
Even though she sounded so confident he could read her inner feelings by rely looking into her eyes.
"If you can't handle her, your world's number one backer is right here," He said while beating his chest. A sweet smile lingered on his face as he continued staring at her face.
"Yup, I almost forgot that my backer is more aweso than every other backer. The re ntion of his na is enough to instil fear in the hearts of my enemies," Joanna replied sarcastically.
Amos and Anthony chuckled as they watched her dramatic face fade away.
He ignited the car and together they continued on their journey. The atmosphere in the car from then onwards beca livelier.
When they got to the front of the three-storey building, Joanna tried to open the door but Amos jamd it close.
"I told you as long as I am with this identity, opening the door for you is my job now," He began when his eyes t her questioning stares.
"I don't have many days to do this and I really wished you wouldn't try to steal this away from too," He said ekly.
For two minutes Amos and Joanna who were now the only occupants of the car stared at each other intensely.
Although they uttered no words their stares alone spoke a million words.
Anthony standing outside the door watched this happen without saying anything.
[He is willing to humble himself to the lowest level all because of his love for . I wish a day will co too when I am this confident about my feelings for him]
She looked away after they had stayed that way for over two minutes.
"I will not steal that away from you so don't worry," She finally spoke.
He lifted his hand and rubbed her cheeks lovingly, "I have always known that my Joan is the best," His eyes glimred as he locked eyes with her.
"Don't call MY JOAN if you are not gonna take responsibility for it…,"
"And who said I was ever scared of taking responsibility especially when it cos to you?" He grinned and stepped out of the car, leaving her confused with his vague answer.
He walked to the other side of the car and opened the car's door for her. He did this with pride.
"Is this the stage where the lady gives the guy a peck," Joanna speculated after coming out of the car?
"If you give , I won't reject so go on…," He was surprised to see that he and Anthony had abandoned him there.
"Wait for , this is not fair," He hurried after them.
If not that Joanna looked too young to bear a child of Anthony's age others would have mistaken them for a family of three the instant they stepped foot inside the restaurant.
The mont the restaurant staff recognised Anthony they didn't waste ti escorting them to the second floor where their VIP custors normally dined at.
Joanna, Amos and Anthony were going through the nu in their hands when the two guys got a whiff of familiar scents.
[Goddamn it! It's those annoying fellows again]
Amos clenched his fist. He and Anthony tilted their heads to look at the direction the scent ca from.
Behold they saw two guys approaching their seats. The first thing that caught his attention as he stared at them was Raymond's outfit.
He was wearing matching clothes with Joanna. No matter how hard he thought he refused to believe that this was a re coincidence.
"What are you two intently looking at?" Joanna asked. She paused what she was doing and followed their line of sight.
"I bet they think we look dashing, that is why they can't take their eyes off us," Joanna heard Derrick's voice before she could see them.
By the ti she saw them, the two smiling guys who were the centre of attention were close to their table.
"It's both of you!" Joanna exclaid. Instead of surprise, she sounded awkward.
She stole a glance at Amos to see his reaction. She wasn't surprised to see his murderous glares directed at the two guys because she expected this much.
She would be a fool not to understand how he feels towards Raymond and Derrick after how he reacted the previous day.
"What are you guys doing here?" The words escaped her mouth before she could stop herself.
"What else if not…,"
"Have you both resorted to tailing us now?" Amos cut in the middle of Derrick's reply.
"Also, did you have to make it so obvious by wearing matching clothes with her?" He asked rudely.
"Can't you see how pathetic you look…,"
"What's your problem with , dude…,"
"I am not your dude so don't you ever call that," He warned sternly. With the way, their eyes shot lasers at each other Joanna knew it wasn't as easy as it looked.
