Chapter 7

  • Jordan walked into the office on Monday morning hoping to get answers from Philip or his girlfriend, he wanted answers and he wanted to get it soon, his mystery lover wasn't showing up and Jordan wasn't one who did one night stands especially not when whoever banged him did such a good job at it, he wanted to meet this person no matter what and have a taste again, and also talk to the person, maybe get to know him and just maybe he could do love again, funny how he was considered that because of someone he wasn't even sure of.
  • "Hey Eliza, can I talk to you for a moment?"
  • Jordan asked her as she walked into the office, not even giving her a chance to sit down.
  • "Sorry I jumped you, I have something I really wanna know,"
  • "it's not a problem Jordan, you can ask,"
  • "Okay, thank you, so the thing is I want to know if you saw me talking to anyone on Saturday night and if you dont mind telling me who it was,"
  • Jordan inquired hoping she had the answers he needed.
  • "You were with someone? I am sorry, I can't remember seeing you with anyone, you can ask Ethan though'"
  • "No, Ethan won't know, I was still sober when he left, it was remaining just the three of us," that's the part I can't remember"
  • "Oh, sorry, I don't think I can help you,"
  • Eliza replied dashing Jordan's hope of finding his mystery lover.
  • "So you are telling me you didn't see me talking to anyone before you left? Are you sure? Think about it please, this is important to me,"
  • Jordan pleaded with Eliza but she seemed not to have any idea, he had been betting on her to tell him and give him a clue and now it seems that wasn't the case.
  • "I didn't see anyone, you can ask Philip when he gets back, sorry but I was pretty drunk when we left, and even if I saw anything, I don't recur,"
  • "It's fine Liz thanks anyways,"
  • "Cool, or you can make a stop at the bar that would be easier, Phillip is on break this week and won't show up until next week, if it is urgent you can go to the bat,"
  • "Yeah, thanks, I will do that,"
  • Jordan said and excused himself, going back to his seat, he hadn't thought of going to the bar, that should have been his first stop, he would go there after work and hope he can find anything, even if it's just a name or a description, anything to get a grab of who it might be.
  • He concentrated on getting his work done, he couldn't leave early as he wanted and was only able to leave by after seven, he decided to go straight to the bar.
  • Jordan greeted the barman Greg who smiled at him.
  • "Hi, Greg,"
  • "Hey Jordan, what's up baby? What are you doing here on a weekday?"
  • Greg asked flirting, as usual, Jordan was used to him calling him baby and he liked it, not as in like like, Greg wasn't his type but still, he liked him calling him baby.
  • "Yeah, I came to ask a few questions,"
  • "Okay, do you want a drink?"
  • "No, I have to go to work early tomorrow, I will just ask and leave,"
  • "Alright baby, I am all ears,"
  • "Remember Saturday night?"
  • "Yes, when you are your friends came, what's up about it?"
  • "I was the lady person that left, and I was wondering if you maybe saw me talking to someone or leaving with a stranger,"
  • "This stranger is it a guy or a girl?"
  • "A guy,"
  • "Okay, I don't think so, the last time I saw you, you were helping the other guy, what's his name Philip, yes, you helped him and that other girl get in the car and you never came back here, I assumed you left for home too, I am guessing that's not it,"
  • "Yeah, it's not, I have scattered memories but it doesn't add up, I can't recur going anywhere after here and I woke up in a hotel room,"
  • "Ohhh, did you get laid?"
  • Greg asked with a knowing smile that made Jordan kind of shy but he denied it.
  • "No, that's not it, I am just trying to figure out who took me to the hotel,"
  • "Same difference, because if this said person didn't leave an impact you won't be out here hunting for him, must have been an unforgettable fuck,"
  • "Shut up, can you help me?"
  • "Sure, I will ask the others who were around that day if they saw when you left and which part you headed to but don't expect too much as everyone is always busy and they barely notice things, if I find anything, I will let you know,"
  • "Thank you, Greg,"
  • "Sure baby, anything for you,"
  • Jordan sat in his usual spot at the bar, he felt sad for not getting anything, he had come hoping he would get information but there was nothing, all the staffs who were present said they didn't see him leave, those that did say he left with his co-workers, which wasn't true because he knew he didn't leave with Philip and Eliza, between getting those two in a car, which is what Greg and some other workers had said, he had somehow met someone who had taken him to a hotel where he had spent the night.
  • "I am sorry we couldn't help you Jordan,"
  • Greg said coming to him after the club had closed, he didn't know why he waited till everyone had left, he had to go to work the next day.
  • "It's fine, you did your best, thanks Greg,"
  • "Wait, why not check the CCTV footage maybe you will find something,"
  • Greg said pulling him out of his seat and dragging him with him upstairs, they passed the VIP part of the club where some people were still in, he opened a door to where Jordan discovered was a control room, Greg spoke to the man there and the guy brought out the footage of that day, after which the man left, while he and Greg watched the CCTV footage, it took a while for them to find the clip where he was shown but that didn't help as the cameras didn't capture much moment of him.
  • "There are so many lopes, I need to remind the management to do something about this,"
  • Greg said as he scanned through more.
  • "Yeah, I agree,"
  • He responded. Checking the cctv didn't help which put him in an even worst mood.
