Chapter 1 Getting drunk all because of him
I downed another cup of beer down my throat half way, smiling lazily to myself. Life isn't all that hard. It's a wonder what a bottle of beer could make you forget. I had left Remi and his overly pretty secretary like four hours ago or something.
Maybe then they could do what ever they wanted to do in peace without any intrusion. And without a black girl ruining their moment.
Don't blame me. I felt left out. It's all not just fear. No. But I didn't care, not then. I was drunk and happy. Remi could go to hell for all I cared and that 'sexy' Lauren too. I hated her. like... like .. um.... so much, with so much disgust as I would gaze down on dog's poop beneath my shoe
There was just one thing that didn't make sense. My feelings and my heart. I had no idea how many times it would broken.
I pushed back my chair. It was time to go home. I still lived with my parent, if I did not heavens knew I would have been dead. Suicide no need to even think about it. As senseless as I was that moment, I knew the implication it was to arrive home late. Mom would kill me
She'd just rant that's all. I was the last born, out if two. My elder sister, Ella was over seas enjoying her life in..... what was the name of the country again? Georgia! with her newest boyfriend.
The ought to have gotten married but she was frolicking with them. Btb, mom cares a lot about me and Dad too. I love them both. But there was this part of me that needed love too. But not from them.
I staggered away from the place as I had paid whatever amount it was earlier before I started drinking. I twirled my car keys in my finger as I tried to place one leg before the other as I sang.... Jealously jealously jealously..... underneath my breath. One African song like this.
I was giddy, Yes that was the power of alcohol. So beautiful. I stopped to gaze at the beautiful sky for a moment and almost fell but quickly regained my footing. I strolled clumsily into the parking lot. " Now where is that car " I mumbled and squinted my eyes as I walked past cars to recognize the butt of mine.
" Ah, there it is. ". I laughed to myself as I fiddled with the key in my hand looking for the button to press, to automatically open the doors. I finally found it after sometime and strolled to the drivers side. Just as I was about opening, another car drove in recklessly into the spot beside my car. I squinted my eyes at it to get a good look at the stupid driver. Did he want to bang my car?
" Hey idiot! Do you know you should be sued? I was just about to open the door of my car. What if your stupid car had bashed it? it would have caused you a lot. Do you know who I am? "
I asked drunkenly, slapping at the window of the ' idiot's ' car
" You have no respect " I was ranting. The man or guy or whatever alighted from the drivers side and came over.
" I am deeply sorry. I didn't me ---- "
" Shut up! " My eyes vision was blurry but I said anyways " you're an idiot " Staggering backwards
" I said I'm sorry "
" let me...... me..... be. You're just like ..... like every other m..... men. You and an.... Remi are just .... just- just forget it. "
I waved him off, flinging the door of my car open. I made to climb the Hummer only to slip. The last thought in my mind was Remi before I blacked out
When I woke up the next morning on my side, the first thing I saw was a block of a block of a body. it's back to me. I blinked and blinked again. I sat up hurriedly. Where in the name of the earth was I?
The room was unfamiliar, it was neither mine nor Remi nor Aria's. I bolted up from the bed and I guess waking up the stranger beside me. No, I didn't want to think about it. I couldn't have had a night stand with whoever was going to face me. Amen.
The moment the stranger turned, I concealed my gasp with a hand to my mouth and wide eyes. Damn and damn again. Heavens knew he was hot. He had this striking green eyes, okay nose, a kissable lips and a omigosh messy black hair. I noticed how huge he was too, like his arms. He had muscles. I forgot everything, my head was blank.
Just then that SOB of a headache decided to come on ever so badly, I had to retreat to the bed.
" Are you okay? "
I wanted to melt into him, into his voice. I smiled crookedly at him as I put a hand to my head
" Hangover " I managed to say without looking at him. I felt the bed ease and I slightly turned. He had headed for the door and closed the door behind him. I laid flat on my back. I'm never drinking again, I pledged to myself.
He came back with two pills of drugs in his had and a cup of water in another, crossed the room in a few strides over to me and stretched his hand out for me to take.
I took the pills with a frown, sitting up with a huge discomfort, as if a mountain was in my head. I hated taking pills. I wanted to open my mouth and say thank you but he cut my off as soon as I opened my mouth to talk.
" When you are okay, we can talk. Don't bother trying. "
I suddenly wanted to kiss him as a thank you instead, but I just closed my eyes and sank into the pillow
