Chapter 85: FULFILLING A PROMISE II

"Coachy have yours.." Emma said , as she dropped a plate full of hot delicious food in front of Maya, before getting around to the other seat on the dining table.

"Good one Learner. Good one. Now you're talking." Maya hinted, as she stared at the plate of steaming food. Her stomach growled as if in acceptance  of the food, yet to be eaten.

"Uhuh, Dig in. Before your stomach bursts open." Emma added with a laugh, using her spoon for demonstrations; which caused Maya to bite a remark back, she didn't know that her stomach's growl had been so loud.

"Aye aye." Shr finally said like a salute, before picking up her spoon to eat.

At the first taste of the meal, she smiled. A smile which Emma noticed.

"I take it from your smile that the food is good right?"Emma said, looking at her with a smile of her own.

"Yeah, I taught well." She said, fanning herself like a Majesty with an invisible fan, bursting in laughter when she heard Emma scoff.

"Laugh all you want." Emma said, shaking her head, as she took a spoonful of her dish.

"Aye Ma'am. As you wish." She returned, still laughing. Taunting the human was really fun.

" Quit laughing, I eat in silence." Emma stated, trying hard enough to keep herself from laughing too. Her just statement even started lame and funny to her, and which was why she smiled out when her friend burst out into another round of laughter.

But they had to eat before the food went cold, and she wanted to go somewhere before nightfall. She knew Maya would herlp her. But they had to be done with the food first. With the laughing spree going on, she doubted she would be able to make it in time and come back, if it continues.

"Emma, you should try out for a clown at the events followed the upcoming Christmas week." Maya said, wiping off lone tears from her eyes. She had never been this free and light for years now. Her pack was somewhat like a cage even. The only time she felt good was when she was with her mother, especially after she lost her best friend, Zoe.

"Like seriously?" Emma muttered, with a widened eyes. " Of all the things.." She heaved, blinking her eyelashes at Maya.

" What! You would perfect the act." Maya stated in a convincingly tone, still smiling.

"Nah, thank you. I will pass. You can try it out. Or perhaps you could act as a sheep for the shepherds in the birth-of-Jesus' play." Emma saod, winking at Maya with her right eye, and bursting into laughter when the Blondie's mouth dropped open as she understood the implications of her statement.

"Emma!" Maya screamed, dropping her soon for a moment, as she stared, wide-eyed at Emma.

"What?" Emma asked with a shrug, smiling.

"You are the worse." Maya said, now smiling.

"Yeah,Yeah." Emma muttered, digging into her food, not bothering to hide the victory smirk on her face. She knew she had won the taunt bout. She always did.

"You would be traveling home for Christmas?" Maya asked, after some minutes of silence ventured in eating had passed.

"Yeah. Why are you so concerned about the holidays? Missing me already?" Emma asked, wiggling her eyebrows, while smiling.

"You wish.."Maya said with a scoff.

But in actuality, she would miss her new friend who is a human. An irony, her mother would call it.

"So why are you asking?" Emma queried, taking a spoonful of food into her mouth.

"Just making small talk." Maya replied, which was partly true. She was still thinking on how to broach the topic of last night, without making the redhead sad or angry again.

"Oh, okay." Emma muttered, determined to finish her food now more than ever. She needed to see a particular somebody.

"Emma…." Maya started, but stopped as she stared at the redhead who she noticed had increased her eating pace. Was she in a hurry? She thought, and shrugged; She had to fufill her promise to Derek.

"Emma.." She called again, when she noticed that the redhead still hadn't lifted up her face to her.

"Yeah." Emma said finally, after some seconds. It wasn't good snubbing a friend. She had heard the call the first time

Also, she already knew what was coming next.

"About Derek..He was drugged." Maya said in a rush, wanting to get it all out at once; there was no need cutting corners.

"Drugged? That's new" Emma stated, now interested in knowing more. That fateful night,  she had seen the lazy haze in his eyes and the cup beside him, indicators of a possible drugged motion, but she had ignored it all. The sight of another girl humping her man had driven off the sense from her, making her irrational. Thinking of it now, she couldn't agree less. 

"Yes. Cassey drugged him. If you noticed, she wore a redwig." Maya said.

"She? Red wig?" Emma asked, as she tried to understand her friend's statement.

"The girl on Derek's body was Cassey. She wore a re wig to enhance the deciet. So all the while, Derek was thinking…."

" ….that He was with me." Emma said, completely Maya's statement.

" Where is she?" Emma asked, calmly. You wouldn't know that she was devising a hundred and one ways to deal with the troublemaker.

"In the hospital." Maya stated, scratching a spot on the back of her neck.

"Hospital?" Emma asked, befuddled by the statement. "She works there?" She asked, alreaey planning to visit her there if that was were the trouble head worked.

"No no." Maya replied. "Derek..uhm handled her and her friend..after you left the party last night." She said, with a shrug.

"Oh, better." Emma said, her anger placated a bit. But she knew she still had to do something, something to teach the bitch a lesson.

"So…." Maya drawled, staring at Emma who looked deep in thoughts.

"So..." Emma drawled back, reclining back on the chair.

"Would you forgive him?" Maya asked, hoping fervently for a positive answer.

"I don't know. Give me some time." Emma replied, after taking a deep breath. She would let him wallow in guilt for some days before accepting him back. That would teach him a lesson; he shouldn't follow a girl to somewhere, without her.

"Okay." Maya said, breathing out in relief. That was a start. She thought.

"So Maya..." Emma called.

"Yeah.." Maya replied

"Could you follow me somewhere?"
