We are not friends!
Chapter Ten
We Are Not Friends!
Boris who didn't want to be in this place at all looked at Hailey and saw that she had a frown on her face. It was the first time in his life that he agreed with Hailey!
"But it's the truth Mrs.Jonshon! You are still as beautiful as ever!" Mike was still flattering Sydney
As Boris manager, Mike had to do a lot of public relations for him. So he was really used to pleasing people with words. .
"Let's forget about that. I'm afraid that I am going to let it get to my head and actually start to believe it if I continue to listen to you talk. Why are you actually here in Sunset town?" Sydney asked. She was originally in a bad mood because of Clara but now she's in a good mood after talking to Mike.
Sydney thought that it was amazing that they chose to come at the same time with Hailey.
"Well, we had a rare break from the hustle and bustle of making a living in the city this Christmas and we wanted to spend it in the town where we grew up. We wanted to take a look around" Mike explained.
"It's good that you've never actually forgotten about Sunset town! Most kids like you actually did not remember this place after they left. No one wants to come back to this slow paced life" Sydney said while nodding her head in approval.
"Sunset town has a lot of memories for us. To put it simply, it holds the memories of our youth. We could be really free without considering anything back then. Now that we've entered society, there's a lot of things to consider. I think it's good that we can come back and reminisce every once in a while" Mike said. He is a good talker and he had already charmed Kent and Sydney with his words.
Sydney and Kent were satisfied with what Mike said. It's not everyday that they can find a young man who is as sensible as Kent.
"I saw them in the market. They were looking for a place to stay through the holiday. These are kids that I watched grow up. Of course I can't let them go anywhere else! I convinced them to come back with me! Since Hailey is back too for the holidays , I thought that it'd be great to have all three of them together. Since they are high school classmates, I'm sure that they have a lot of things that they want to talk about and catch up with each other on" Kent offered an explanation even though none was asked for.
Kent was really proud of what be did. He thought that he has done something good for once.
"That's a great idea! Hailey is here too;! We are going to have a full house for the holiday!" Sydney was more than happy to play host. Besides, she had always wanted to have more children but she had a difficult child birth when she had Hailey and she could no longer have children anymore.
However, Hailey wasn't willing to let them live in her house.
"No! Why do we have to let them live in our house?! They can go to a hotel or elsewhere! Why are the both of them here?" Hailey immediately protested.
Seeing her parents talk without caring if she was there or not made Hailey mad. She knew that she definitely could not stand staying in the same house with Boris.
Sydney completely ignored her daughter who was protesting. Her eyes landed on Boris.
"This is Boris right? Wow! You've grown even more handsome than you were before! I remember that you used to follow Hailey around all the time!" Sydney said. She had no idea what the true nature of the relationship between Hailey and Boris was, she just thought that the both of them always seemed to be in the same place at the same time.
Hailey and Boris had an explosion go off in thier heads at the same time.
Since he was in someone else's house, Boris knew that he could not argue. He could only suck it up.
"Mrs. Johnson, it is nice to see you again. I'm really happy that you could have us for the next few days" Boris said politely.
Boris went against his concience to say that he was happy about the arrangement. If it was just Mr.and Mrs. Johnson, Boris will have no problem with them. But Hailey was here too.
"Of course of course! I know that I made the right decision to ask you to come here! I'm sure that you and Hailey are going to have a good time since you were such good friends in the past" Kent said and let out a short loud laugh.
Hailey watched the situation with anger in her eyes. She really wanted to scream..and that was exactly what she did.
"We are not friends!"
Hailey could not stand how her parents were getting ahead of themselves and she was angered. She and Boris had never been friends. As far as she remembered, she hated Boris with everything that she had!
Kent was stunned when he heard Hailey say this. But he remembered that Boris and Hailey used to argue a lot like this in the past.
"Hailey, you are already a twenty five year old adult. You are no longer a child! Why are you being so dramatic?! Why are you still acting like a kid in high school?!" Kent scolded Hailey.
Hailey was speechless to hear this. Is he still her father?
"Dad, do you really think that I'm throwing a tantrum and being dramatic?!. I and Boris have never been friends! We will never be friends. Don't get ahead of yourself too much!" Hailey said. She hates Boris completely. How can she be his friend?
Boris was annoyed to hear this. He never liked Hailey and he never wanted to be her friend. He wanted to yell that he wasn't her friend too but Mike glared at him. Boris immediately shut his mouth.
Mike leaned in closer to Boris to talk to him so no one else could hear
"We are in someone else's house. Do you really want to cause a scene here?"
