Taming The Las Vegas Playboy

Time flew so quickly. Wirata was eighteen years old, studying the first year at a private university in Boston. Two years of living with Pichani were not too bad after all. Because her mafia boyfriend didn't come very often as Wirata was afraid he would. She never faced him again since that time when she was sixteen.

"Hey! ... Wine, we're here, darling."

The noise came from a beautiful young lady, Sophia, her best friend. The stone table under the flower arch behind the building, a tall handsome man sat next to Sophia.

Sam Mackenzie, very good looking with a tall and lean body. He had got short dark brown hair, the front put some hair gel using his big hand to comb it made it stood up, he could be a supermodel if he wanted to. Sam's famous among female students around town. The three of them had always been close. friends who had been together since high school. Sam was studying to be a doctor, that was what he wanted to be all along.

"Wine, I've bought you a cup of love here, babe."

Sam said with his handsome face full of cheeky smile, handing Wirata a big cup of coffee.

Today was the final exam for the first academic year. Wirata was the last student who left the room. She was studying accounting and finance degree, same as Sophia.

"Hey! That one is mine. " Sophia said loudly, knowing that Sam was always playful with Wirata.

"You can share this one with me, ugly."

A cheeky face turned to Sophia, he always said that Sophia was not as beautiful as Wirata, nobody asked his opinions but he liked to express whatever was in his head. Sophia took the cup, lifted it to her mouth, swallowed half of it and kept the cup well away from Sam's big hands.

"I've waited for you ages, babe, what took you so long, and here's Soph, came out for last thirty minutes and finished the whole bag of crisps? " Sam shook his head, Sophia shrugged like who cared.

"I am not as good as Soph as you know my dear. This is the last subject for this semester, now I feel like I'm in heaven, let's go home."

Wirata said with a happy voice. Sam looked at the beautiful sweet face, her Asian looks always made him unable to take his eyes off her. Sam turned to look at Sophia, American beauty who made men turned their heads around when she walked past. Sam thought how lucky he was, to have two beautiful ladies beside him, a smile spread across his face, thinking about his beloved brother who lived in Las Vegas.

Wirata was from there. Sam was wondering if Stefan had a chance to see his close friends, especially, Wirata, would his brother stop and turn to look at her as other men. Sam loved his elder brother so much, Stefan was his idol since he had only one brother.

"I thought we would go celebrate first before you fly to Vegas? shall we go for a drink tonight?" Sophia asked.

"Please, Wine. Let's do that, we won't see each other for 3 months, and that's too long."

Sam helped Sophia to convince Wirata.

"Mm, I have a Taekwondo class in the evening, but we can go for some ice-cream if you want."

Wirata said decidedly.

Wirata had been taking Karate and Taekwondo classes because her mother convinced her to do so. Mother was worried about her only daughter so she wanted Wirata to be able to protect herself. Wirata did not like it at first because it's hard work. But two years in practice, she had become loving it.

"Alright, ice-cream as you wish."

Sam said. The three walked together to the ice cream shop at the corner of the road in front of the Uni.

While sitting and waiting for ice-cream, they were talking about their plans for three months break.

"I'm going to help my mother at her restaurant, as usual, anyone wants to go to Vegas, helping me serve food and wash dishes are very welcome!"

Wirata said with happiness in her voice, could not wait to see her mother. It had been so many months since the last time she had seen her.

"If I didn't have a summer class I'd have followed you definitely so that my future mother-in-law would see how skillful and hard working I am."

"Enough, Mr. Sam Mackenzie. I can feel some puke threatening to come out of my throat right now."

Sophia said bluntly, seeing Sam pretending to make wistful eyes at Wirata. Wirata was laughing. Sam and Sophia always liked biting at each other like this. They might not realize that they looked more like girlfriend and boyfriend when they did this to each other.

"Hey, don't say this, Soph. Because your mouth is like this, that's why no man wants to be your boyfriend. Wine, you don't have to listen. I can wait for you until you're ready to marry me, baby." Sam Said with a cheeky flirting smile. Sophia made a vomiting sound. Wirata laughed out loud this time.

"OK, stop, both of you, don't be silly. After ice-cream, Sam and Soph, you two can go home or go wherever you want, don't have to drive me to the apartment, I'll walk, so you guys don't waste your time.

"Stop saying that, I never think it's wasting time with you, in fact, I want to be with you all the time." Sam couldn't resist flirting, Sophia made a funny face, Sam pushed her head, and Sophia hit him on the shoulder.

"Stop, kids."

Wirata raised her voice to stop the battle. She opened her purse but Sam stopped her and took money from his pocket put on the table. The three held hands.

"I hope you two enjoy the break and see you soon, don't forget that I still need a waiter and a dish-cleaner, so if you two decide to visit me, please let me know."

Wirata said with a smile but felt a bit sad that she had to be away from them.

"Okay, I'll drive you home first, Soph, and then I'll see my bro, he's just arrived from Las Vegas."

Sam said, they walked out of the ice-cream shop, said good-bye to each other.

Wirata knew so little about Sam's family, considered it did not matter to their friendship. She only knew that Sam's family is doing business about finance involving lots of money. His elder brother was taking care of a branch in Las Vegas.

Wirata never asked about his family's personal matters because nothing to do with her and in this lifetime, she probably would never get to know them at all.
