My friend’s name is Ivan

Derek’s pov:

I am f*cking a girl right now but my mind is thinking about my dream girl. I want to meet her and see her to know why she is driving me crazy. But where I can find her? Only way to reach her is that waitress whom I met today.

I stopped my movement and told the girl in front of me to leave. She wasn’t able to satisfy me at all. My curiosity was killing me. I can’t be satisfied until I will meet my dream girl. I went to the bathroom and took a quick shower.

Next day:

I am again in the same café where I met that waitress. I ordered coffee and that same waitress came with my coffee but when I tried to ask her about her friend she ignored me and left. She was getting on my nerves now, “Fine, if

you want it in other way then I won’t disappoint you. I went to her boss and threaten him and to my surprise he was a coward. He called her quickly and I asked her again, “Give me your friends detail or I will snatch your job or even

worse than that.”

“Sir, why are you doing this? I already told you that my friend will never give you that perfume. Please don’t harm my friend and spare us.” She begged to me.

“Cora, tell him what he want to know. Don’t create a scene here.” Her boss ordered her.

After thinking for a while, she says, “My friend’s name is Ivan. He works in …”

“Wait what? Your friend is a guy? I am not asking about him I am asking about your female friend.” I said to her who looks with a confused face to me.

“Sorry sir, but I don’t have any female friend. The only friend that I have is Ivan. He is the owner of that perfume you were asking about.” She said.

“Then sorry but are you sure that the perfume is only used by your male friend.” I asked her again to confirm.

“Yes sir, we grew up together and he only wears that perfume called “Blue Lotus”. Can I go now?” she asks me.

“Yes you can. By the way what you were telling me? Where you friend works?”

“He works in A-star club.” After answering my question she left.

As soon as I heard my club’s name, I remembered that I saw that dream when I was sleeping in my club. But it was a girl with whom I did all that but why it’s a guy instead. Whatever, I just want that perfume for now and for that I have to meet Ivan tonight along with that I will ask him about that night too.

I reached my club after settling all my work at company. I was very tired, frustrated and angry. It was all because of my employees who don’t know how to work properly, no one knows how to make a good coffee and all this was making me mad. I asked for that guy Ivan on the counter and my manager told me that he is attending customers in room no. 8.

I was so much in hurry to meet him that I started to head towards room no.8. Within two minutes, I was in front of room 8. As soon as I opened the door, I saw a guy who was beating a middle aged man and another man was about to hit him with a beer bottle. Before he could do that I immediately hold that oldie’s hand and said, “I don’t like violence when my mood is off.”

That oldie tries to free his hand from my grip and says, “Are you a friend this waiter? I think you also need some punches.”

“And who is going to punch me you?” I asked him but instead of saying anything he smiled at me and with this I felt pain on the back of my head. I turned around to take a look at the man who dared to hit me. It was a guy with well-built body and black coat. He was bodyguard of this oldie. I got totally pissed off. I punched that f*cking bodyguard until his nose started to bleed.

When I looked back all other men were on the floor. I don’t know why I started to feel dizzy. That waiter comes to me and holds me in his arms when I was about to fell on the floor and asks, “Are you alright sir?”

I wasn’t able to see his face because my vision was getting blurring but that familiar fragrance made me relax in a second. All my anxiety and stress was vanishing. It was like my soul was healing in his embrace which was full of

that fragrance. I fainted in his arms.

When I opened my eyes it was morning already. I was in hospital. As soon as I tried to get off from the bed I felt an intense pain in my head. I started to feel weak. But when I was about to fall again a pair of arms held me safely. Again the same fragrance took over me and I started to feel relaxed. My pain was vanishing. Why what is in this perfume that makes me relax as soon as I inhale it. I looked at the guy who was holding me. His face was shining brightly in the sunlight. He was handsome but in other way. His skin was quite smooth just like the girl in my dream. His black eyes were filled with worries. He asks me while stressing his eyebrows, “Are you alright sir?”

I wasn’t able to say anything. He says again, “Don’t stress yourself. The doctor told us that you didn’t take care of yourself because of which your health is not good. Your body is weak because of the lack of nutrients.”

After hearing him, only word that came out of my mouth was his name, “Ivan?"

“Yes, I am Ivan.” He says while placing me on the bed. He then sits on the nearby chair and continues, “I am so sorry that because of me you got hurt last night. I violated the law by disobeying our guest but sir he was misbehaving with our waitress and when I tried to stop him he started to misbehave with me too so I lost control and ended up beating all of them. In all of that you got hurt badly. Your head was bleeding heavily when you fainted. I was so scared...”

Ignoring all his words I asked him what I wanted to ask, “You were in my room which is at the top of my club that night am I right?”

He replies with hesitation, “Yes sir”.
