The response from his roommates gladden Persia's heart. He walk away from the mirror and picked up a credit card that sat on the small table at the corner. " I should go now.

Surprised that Celia could throw a party after breaking up with him, Persia march in. There he saw Celia having the best time of her life with her friends around her. Dollars note splattered around the floor, the music blaring and alcohols all over. Persia literally was amazed by this and it serves as an answer to him already but being an adamant man, he walk forward to Celia and tap her tenderly on the shoulder.

He is in his living room going through the pile of paperwork before him when he overheard the familiar voice of Celia and Felicia struggling with the security men.
