Chapter 156 - Sleep with a friend

Andy left the apartment and drove around a bit. He did not want to go back to the Yang mansion and his own penthouse was too far from here. He looked at the time and it was getting very late. He glanced at where he was and noticed that he was near Lena's place.

Shen Milli gave Andy Lena's address once before so he could go and apologize to her but he never did. He drove his car to Lena's place.

All the doors were closed and you could not go in without the key access card. However, there was always security on watch 24/7. Andy told him that he was a friend of Lena and showed several pictures of them.

The guard knew who Andy Yang was so he let him go in.

Andy went up to the elevator and when he arrived at Lena's door, he saw that her light was still on. She must not be asleep yet. He rung the doorbell. He waited for a minute before rining it again. After a few seconds, Lena opened the door.

"Andy?!"

"Hey...you were right." Andy looked down on the floor.

Lena saw a broken man. Andy did not have many friends. His crazy mother did not really allow him to get close to anyone because she said they are all using him. Madam Yang said that no one is really your friend if you are in a higher position than them.

Kris cracked open the bedroom door a bit when he heard Lena said "Andy." Kris was irritated why the man was here. 'He has his own woman at home! Were they not just kissing?! Don't you dare invite that nasty man inside your house, Lena!!'

"Come on in." Lena opened the door wider and let Andy in. He took off his shoes and Lena glanced at Kris. She nudged her head to tell Kris to close the damn door.

"Do you have a guest over?" Andy asked.

Lena looked at him in surprise and quickly responded. "No." She shook her head. "Why do you ask?"

"You have two bowls of ramen over there." Andy looked at the dining table and Lena looked at where he was looking. 'SHIT! I forgot about that.'

"Oh... both are for me."

"You eat in two bowls?"

"Yeah.. to remind me how much I eat. If I just keep using one bowl, then I feel like I only ate one bowl so I will eat more. I don't want to gain weight."

'Yet she was still eating two bowls...' Andy smiled a bit. "You're funny."

"You want the other bowl? Stress eating is good."

Andy walked over and sat on the dining table. He took a bite of the ramen noodle. "It's good." He took another big bite. "It's funny, eating this makes me miss your cooking."

Lena sat down across from Andy. "Does Eva not cook for you? She must know how to cook."

"She does... but only her kind of food."

Lena knew what Andy meant. Andy was a person who did not like to eat "pauper food." It was either food made by professional chefs or from 5-star hotels. Lena learned to cook from top chefs just for Andy. Lena did not want to tell him that the ramen was prepackaged ramen....

Andy tried slurping his ramen but failed. He scooped it up and ate it instead. "Can I stay over tonight?"

*BAM*

Both Lena and Andy turned their heads toward the noise. It came from her bedroom.

"What was that?" Andy stood up to go check the noise but Lena walked in front of him.

"It's nothing. The shower just makes weird noises sometime soon. I am getting it to fix. NASTY noises that don't know how to SHUT UP when people are trying NOT TO DIE." Lena raised her voice on every larger note to make sure Kris heard her.

"Oh... but can I stay tonight? You do have an extra room, right?" Andy walked back to the dining table and ate the bowl of ramen.

"Yeah, you can." Lena walked to the dining room too and ate her ramen. But before she could take a bite, her phone had a text notification.

She glanced at it and dropped her utensil on the table to text back.

Lena: Are you out of your fken mind!! I already told him yes

Lena put down her phone to eat again but Kris kept texting back at her. She glanced back down on her phone and panicked.

Lena: Don't u dare come out!

Kris: It's me or him.

Lena: You don't send a broken-hearted friend out in the middle of the night. He will go drinkin!

Kris: Men can drink

Lena: Then I go drink with him

Kris stopped texting. He recalled the last time Lena was drunk and an image of her doing the same thing to Andy struck his mind. He shook off the thought and text back to Lena.

Kris: He can stay

Lena: Good *thumbs up emoji* Conversation over

Kris: But u can't stay here

Lena: DUDE!!

Kris: He's drugged. He can eat u

Lena: I'll punch him in the nose

Kris: Stay at my place or I come out

Lena: NONONONONONONONONONON >:C

Just as Lena sent the message and Kris read it, he opened Lena's door. Lena was sitting opposite of Andy but facing the bedroom hallway so she saw that Kris opened the door. Lena quickly stood up and slammed her hands on the table.

"STOP! Okay, OKAY!" She shouted.

Kris smirked at her and closed the door. Andy looked up at Lena in confusion.

"If you don't want me to stay... I can go to a hotel."

"No... You can stay here. I have an extra room. I'll just go upstairs and sleep with a friend."

"You have a friend who lives here?"

"Uh.. yeah. I took care of his-- I mean HER dog a few days ago and we are good buddies. I texted her already and she said I can go stay with her." Lena smiled innocently at Andy, hoping he would take the lie.

"Ok. Sorry to bother you."

"Are you going to shower?" Lena asked. "I have some men's clothing."

Andy looked at Lena wondering why she has men clothing. Kris, whose ear is like superman also heard that and wondered why too.

"They are for Noah. You know him, he was one of my bodyguards. His birthday is soon. " Lena lied. They were actually for Gary... but she can't say that. "I can just go buy new ones, I am not that poor."

'NOT POOR!' Kris was laughing silently. 'Why are you always charging me then? And that a**hole ate my food.'

Lena picked up both of their bowls and washed it in the sink. She walked back to Andy. "I'll take you to your room."

Lena took Andy to the room that had a restroom attached to it. "Do you need anything else before I go to leave?"

"No. Thanks, Lena."

"Yeah. We'll talk tomorrow." Lena closed the door. She heard Andy went to the bathroom and the shower was running.

She quickly went to her room to see a Kris who was lying on her beautiful bed. She stuck out a middle finger at him.

Kris stood up from the bed and walked to Lena. He went close to her and whispered to her ears. "I'll wait for you outside." And he quietly walked out.

Lena wanted to grab his hair and slammed his head on the door but refrained from such physical attack. She quickly packed her pajamas in a bag and left. She left Andy a copy of the apartment keys and told him that he can eat anything from the kitchen.

She got outside and Kris was holding the elevator for her already. He had his poker face on but he was very happy. Kris did not know why he was so happy.

Lena hoped onto the elevator and it went up. When they finally reached the top floor, Kris stepped out and walked to open his door. Lena noticed that he was barefoot.

"Where's your shoe?"

"I don't know. You hid it somewhere."

That's right. Lena hid it in the closet. They can't go back to get it because Andy might be out of the shower already. It should be fine though... since Andy has no reason to open the closet door.

"C' mon. What are you waiting for? Are you gonna sleep there?" Kris hollered over to Lena.
