Chapter 34 - To The Park With A Best Friend

Santiago City, South America- The Big Mansion

The mansion gates were opened and a red sports car drove into the mansion compound, followed by a black van. The red sports car and the black van moved steadily on the stone road, leading to the interior of the mansion. After seconds of driving, the red sports car pulls up at the entrance way of the mansion. The black van also came to a stop just a meter away from the red sports car.

The driver door of the red sports car opens and a man dressed in complete black suit and trouser, stepped out. The man having a hardened expression, shows that he was a bodyguard. Another bodyguard also stepped out of the red sports car. The bodyguard moved to open the passenger door of the car.

A little boy, approximately at the age of nine or ten stepped out of the door that was opened for him. The bodyguard relatively closes the door after the nine (or ten) year old boy is out of the car. The little boy had blonde hair with an average height. He had brown eyes that blended well with his hair. He wore a pair of sneakers,a dark sunglass,a blue t-shirt and a black coloured jeans. He wasn't very attractive except for his mesmerizing brown eyes.

He took off his dark sunglass as one of the many guards, guarding the big mansion approached him.

"Good morning, Young Master. Welcome to the Big mansion".

The bodyguard that approached the little boy said with a forced smile that seemed professional.

The little boy smiled back before answering;

"Morning to you too. Anyways, I want to see Drake. We were supposed to go out today".

The little boy spoke, his voice like that of his age.

"Oh,if that's so, I'll request for Young Master Drake's presence".

The bodyguard assured.

"Okay then, I can't wait to see him".

"However, how about waiting inside while one of the security guards fetch for the Young master?"

"No probs".

With that, the little boy and the two bodyguards that stepped out of the red sports car with him, were led inside the mansion by the security guard. Then as for the black van, about five bodyguards stepped out of the van. But despite the fact that they were ushered inside the mansion,they preferred to stay outside and guard the van and the red sports car. So,in total, the little boy had actually brought seven guards with him to the big mansion. Taking two guards with him into the mansion and leaving the rest five outside.

The little boy and the two bodyguards were led through a long hallway. In no time they were led into an inner garden that had chairs and couches arranged in a hospitable order. There was a huge canopy in the inner garden that shielded those that sat on the chairs and couches from the sun. Most importantly, there was a lush array of flowers that beautified the garden even more.

"Young Master, please take a seat. The Young Master Drake would be here in no time".

The bodyguard that had led them into the garden gestured.

"Oh, okay".

The little boy took a seat on one of the couches,as offered while the two bodyguards preferred to stand beside him.

*********

It wasn't long until another bodyguard from among the guards in the big mansion arrived at the garden. The bodyguard, wearing a black T-shirt and jeans trouser in which the T-shirt was tucked in, walked into the inner garden through another hallway. Following the bodyguard was no other than Drake, who still had a blank expression on his face.

"Hey, Josh. Hotcha doing?!!"

Drake called out as he walked into the inner garden alongside with the bodyguard, while keeping his hands in his pockets. "You can go now". Drake said to the bodyguard that had led him into the inner garden. The bodyguard relatively turned and left.

The little boy who is just identified as Josh turned to his side, to see Drake striding towards him. Drake has a smile and his hands in his pockets, and also a bodyguard leaving the inner garden.

Josh seemed to marvel at the beautiful boy striding towards him. This was proven by the way his mouth hung open upon seeing the boy with red hair and red eyes. He couldn't take his eyes off Drake as he was really stuck in a trance upon seeing such heavenly child. As for Drake, he seemed oblivious of the effect his presence had on his best friend, Josh. He continued striding towards Josh who sat on one of the couches.

Josh snapped out of his trance once Drake got to where he was. Josh flashed a smile at Drake and Drake chuckled, seeing the older boy smiling at him.

"Morning Drake. How are you doing, today?"

Josh stood up, being an inch taller than Drake as he clapped both his hands on Drake's shoulders.

"I'm doing great, what of you? I see you're excited".

Drake flashed a cheeky grin.

"More than excited. Today's the opening day of Liberty Park".

"Yeah, I know. My personal guard informed me yesterday. I can't wait to be at the opening party of the park. It's going to be fun".

"Me too!!"

Drake nodded enthusiastically. His red hair moved vigorously as he shook his head, making small strands of red hair to fall on his cute face. Josh mentally marveled at what beautiful creature he had made friends with. Sometimes, he wondered if there was another person who was as beautiful as this boy standing in front of him.

"When will it be starting? The opening party?"

Drake asked in order to clear the silence that stretched between him and his best friend. He didn't like the silence and the way his friend was looking at him.

Josh shrugged as he turned to seat back on the couch. Drake also sat down on the nearest couch. His expensive shoe, firmly knitted on the grass floor of the garden. Once he had sat down, he turned to Josh, expecting an answer.

"I think it should be 10am in the morning".

Josh finally answered, seeing Drake's expectant eyes.

"Then we have about one hour and half to spare".

Drake said after looking at the expensive gold watch he had on his little hand. Josh nodded in understanding.

"So, what are we gonna do to waste the time?"

The older boy asked the younger boy. Actually, Drake had a mischievous smile on his face after Josh asked the question. Josh, seeing that smile immediately got tensed with a raised eyebrow.

"How about we play a video game. Me and you, one on one in a competition".

Drake suggested, the mischievous grin still on his handsome face.

"Oh.....boy. I already know my fate. He's gonna win me".

Josh said with a mix of frustration,defeat and anxiety. He rolled his eyes dramatically as he placed his palm on his face. Drake chuckled seeing the frustrated side of his friend. That's because,in a video game battle, Drake always win against Josh no matter the trick Josh tries to use in order to win, Drake always supernaturally wins.

Today,a park at the outskirts of Santiago City would officially be opened. Drake and his best friend, Josh,had planned to attend the opening party of the park. The Amusement park now being called the Liberty Park is a few kilometers away from the big mansion. But the shortest route is the road beside the forest of Acrata.

After Drake and Josh his best friend had played a lot of video games,they had decided to head out to the opening of the latest Amusement park in Santiago. By the time they had already realized that,it was only less than thirty minutes before the opening party would start. Not wanting to arrive at the Amusement park that was opening,late, the Governor's son and the Senator's son quickly headed out in order to get to the opening party.

In order not to take too many guards with them, Drake took four guards with him and Josh took three guards with him. The rest of the guards that had came with Josh, were sent back to the Senator's mansion, using the black van.

Currently,a red sports car and another black van are making their way on one of the bustling roads of Santiago City. The road,clean and sparkling with no speck of dirt served it's purpose very well. At both sides of the road, were buildings ranging from small houses to sky crappers, this shows how developed the city of Santiago is.

Both Josh and Drake are using the red sports car which Josh actually owned. The person driving the car is Drake's personal guard,named Edwin. Edwin is a guy that is neither handsome nor ugly. He isn't really attractive and he always wears a frown. He hardly smiles and that makes him even more unattractive. He has a black hair with the usual black eyes,a pale skin and a thin pink lips. He has a muscular structure that suits his job and also a very tall man.

Drake likes him because of the fact that he doesn't smile and always has a frown on his face. The latter also likes Drake because Drake has a cold voice. What a weird relationship between a Young Master and his personal guard!!

Edwin was driving the red sports car, he had decided to pass through the quickest and shortest route as requested by Drake and Josh. The rest six guards were using the black van that was currently following them.

"Boy!!..... Why do you always win in everything?"

Josh lamented sorrowfully after he was beaten in a game of chess by Drake. The chess board lay on the car seat, while Drake and Josh sat at the opposite side of the chess board.

"That's because, I'm a prodigy".

Drake replied, his voice coursing with pride after beating Josh in a game of chess.

"Prodigy my ass. It's all just luck".

Josh said, the defeated look still laying on his face.

"It can't be just luck if I win every time, I'm sure it's my destiny to always be a winner".

Josh scoffed at Drake's words in disbelief.

"That's a lie. This time, I'm gonna beat you. Wait and see".

"Probably, your usual words".

Drake mocked and Josh frowned. That's because, anytime he looses he always promises to win the next time, but in actual truth, the next time he always looses. Realizing that, he turned to Edwin who was driving the car (red sports car).

"Hey Edwin,do you have any tactics that I can use to beat Drake in chess?"

Josh asked as he turned to the person driving the car.

"Certainly not. Actually, Young Master Drake always wins me in chess. Though, it's quite embarrassing, but Young Master Drake seems to win in every game".

Edwin answered while keeping his attention on the road.

"Oh... Bummer. Drake, you're terrible".

"Hehehehe.... I told you so. I win in everything. Drive that through your nose".

"Please, just let me win this time".

Josh begged genuinely as he watched Drake arrange the chess board.

"Hell no!"

Drake answered, taking his time to arrange the chess.

"And to think I am your senior".

"Hehehehe".

Drake laughed uncontrollably.

Just then, the red sports immediately came to an abrupt stop.
