Chapter 8 - Jada 2.0 Revealed
When they reached their condo building, Bambi was still frowning at Jada. But, of course, that didn't stop her from teasing the pink.
Jada couldn't stop laughing at his reactions, as he looked like he was about ready to strangle her. However, her laughing stopped when she saw someone standing right outside her door.
Looking closely, the gorgeous man was actually standing outside her best friend's door. As they walked closer, Jada recognized the hottie. It was Kobe.
Her eyes widened in shock, then she pulled Bambi to a stop before whispering to him, "They're back together?"
"You didn't know?" he gasped and she nodded. "You were only away for four months and you're not updated anymore?" she pouted at him. It seemed like her sources forgot to inform her about their reconciliation. "Hi, Kobe!"
According to her unreliable sources, who happen to be her friends, Kobe is now the CEO of the company he put up with Lyken. Yes, they are partners.
They started their construction firm right after getting their licenses. After a few months, their company became popular and clients started pouring in.
Although both of them were born with silver spoons in their mouths, they still chose to work on their own. According to Kobe, it feels way better when they work for their fortune. Makes sense!
Jada suddenly recalled, back then, she almost prayed for their business to fail because she was so mad at Lyken. Remembering that, she can't help but chuckle.
Well, it's all in the past. Besides, Kobe has nothing to do with what happened between them. He has nothing to do with her issues.
"Hi!" he greeted back with knitted brows as if wondering how she happened to know him.
"Jerk! It's Jada!" slapping his arm and rolling her eyes at him. She was surprised when he suddenly hugged her. Even Honey was shocked after seeing what her boyfriend did. "Damn Jadakins! I didn't recognize you at all!"
She shook her head at him, "You're overreacting," she snapped and chuckled.
Jada's hair is now short and her fashion style has improved tremendously. But aside from these, she doesn't think she changed that much physically. Not to the point that her friends won't even recognize her.
But, if they were to talk about the changes in her attitude and behavior, then there's a lot they need to discuss. That, Jada admits, changed a lot.
She became close with Kobe back in college. Since Honey is her BFF, she became his go-to person when they fight or if he wanted to prepare surprises for her. They grew even closer when she got into a relationship with Lyken.
Jada and Kobe would call each other by their first names with an added 'kins' in the end. This happened when they got so addicted to eating munchkins that it became their breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
Back then, they would even share and fight over it. Thankfully, Honey wasn't the jealous type. Maybe because she trusts Jada that much. She knew how much Kobe loved her and she knew who owned her best friend's heart... that time. "How long has it been since we last saw each other? Two years? You've changed a lot! You look way, wayyyyyyy better than ever."
"And of course, I'm happy that you appreciate it!" Jada grinned before tugging at his earlobe.
He started whining and calling out to Honey, asking for help. They just laughed at him while he scrunched his nose and frowned.
Jada opened my unit and as soon as she got in, she plopped on the couch, placing both feet on its backrest. She didn't even notice that Kobe and Honey followed her.

"What do you want for dinner, sis?" Honey asked.
"Let's just have something delivered." The couple nodded in agreement. Bambi, who was left outside, also agreed.
A few minutes later, Bambi walked up to Jada, showing her the tablet where upcoming schedules are displayed on its screen. She looked at the screen and scanned it a few times before returning it to him. "Are you trying to kill me, Manager?" she joked, narrowing her eyes at Bambi. Honey creased her forehead at the woman and she grinned, "Gig, as usual, Ireland next month," she informed her. Honey's eyes flicked at Bambi, who suddenly looked tense. "I don't agree on anything yet. I was just showing it to you. Of course, the final decision will still come from you," he quickly explained.
He knew well enough that Honey would scold him if he decided without consulting Jada. That's how much Honey loves Jada as her BFF.
Honey doesn't want her to overwork. Aside from being concerned, her parents also left her in Honey's care before they migrated to the States. "That's good then, I'll think about it," pouting her lips, she glanced at Bambi before saying, "It will depend on my hookups in the coming weeks." Bambi's eyes widened before slowly turning his head towards Kobe. Jada gasped as she forgot that he was there with them.
Even Honey rushed over to her boyfriend to cover her man's ears and Jada couldn't help but chuckle. "Yeah right, as if Kobe's a minor and he can't hear any profanities," she snapped. Honey laughed at her, "Sis, I just want to remind you in case you've forgotten. Kobe's never met Jada 2. 0, he might get the biggest shock of his life."
"O-M-G! I also forgot that Kobe hasn't met the new Jada yet!" Bambi seconded. "He's yet to meet the braver and fiercer Jadanela Cuevas! The pee-pee terrorist!"

"Calm down baby, let your nerves rest for a bit. I'm sure if you find out what Jada's been doing since she became single, your blood will shoot up!" Honey commented. Kobe glared at Jada. As she was not ready to explain anything yet, she just shrugged at him, feigning innocence. Then she stood up to get water from the fridge. "She can spit or swallow, but you're not allowed to go in! That is Jada 2. 0!" Bambi revealed.
Kobe's eyes grew even bigger. If he wasn't there, Jada would have strangled Bambi for being a blabbermouth.
"By the way, where's the toasted bread?" she asked, referring to Ada. She was pretending to be looking for their friend when, in reality, she was just trying to change the topic. Bambi laughed while pointing a finger at Jada and warning her, "Don't you dare call him that or he might kill you first, even before Kobe could."
"I still don't understand where he got that much stupidity!" Jada complained, trying her best to control her laughter.
Honey chimed in, "True, I don't know who he took after," then she glanced at Bambi.
When their friend realized that they were teasing him, he scrunched his nose, "Byotches! Don't me! I'm in no way as stupid as that toasted bread!" he snapped.
Honey and Jada burst into laughter. They can't help themselves, though they can see that Bambi's about to lose his patience already.
When they finally calmed down, Honey decided to call a restaurant and order dinner. The stories kept coming while they were waiting for the food.
Kobe also stayed, but he's been quiet since Bambi and Honey told him about Jada 2. 0. Hours had already passed but he looked like he was still thinking about it. Well, Jada couldn't blame him. He met the nice, friendly, and naive Jada. But it was her before the tables turned. She's already changed... a lot.
