Seated beside Edwin, Leonel smirked. "Had I known I'd be witnessing this lovefest, I'd have stayed home. James isn't straight with us."

James laughed, filling Leonel's glass.

With a keen eye, Edwin leaned back, grinning. “Hey, Leonel, what's the time? Have you just freshened up? Will it be home or hotel tonight?"

Leonel chuckled. “Straight from home, buddy. You know I'm whipped; need to heed your sister's orders."

Others might buy it, but Edwin saw through it.
