A NIGHT WITH A STRANGER : CHAPTERS 91 – 100
Jayden finally agrees for Maya to go to the party on the condition she will come back early.
“How do you manage to convince him to allow you to come to the party?”. Mia asked as they were both seated in the backseat of Jayden’s car with the driver driving them to their destination.
” It was under condition, can’t you see he asked his driver to take us there, I have a time limit to spend there or he will come over”.Maya said.
“Aww, that’s cute of him”. Mia said smiling.
” Really? Do you want us to be the talk of the town if Jayden shows his face at the party”.
“Yeah, that will be more fun to see the well-known famous, handsome, and wealthy bachelor come to a get-together party to take his woman home”. Mia said and Maya scoffed.
” I don’t want his presence there”.
“He is only trying to be protecttive over his woman, any man in his position will do the same”. She said and soon they arrived at the restaurant where the party was being held.
” We are here Ms.Maya”.Mr.Duke said.
“Ok,”. They came down and went inside and scanned around the place looking for a gathering of people.
” There they are, “Mia said and Justin caught sight of them, he waved at them and they left to join them, everyone was pleased to see each other again.
“Wow, Maya, is so good to see you again”. Justin said smiling at her, he sat down in between the two of them.
” Same here”.Maya said.
: “We thought you two would make it”.
“Sorry about that, traffic was terrible,” Mia said.
“Is a good thing that you two came anyway”. Justin said.
: ” Wow, Maya you look beautiful, I didn’t even recognize you when you walked in”.
“Um, thank you”.
” Now that everyone is complete, shall we”.Justin said and they began the party, the waiter came and served them their food and drinks, and their table was filled with different types of food and drinks, Justin filled in a wine in a glass cup and gave it to Maya.
“Thank you” ” She takes a sip from it.
” You are always welcome”.They smile at each other and the rest notice the way Justin is staring at Maya.
: “So, Maya and Mia tell us what you guys have been up to since you graduated from school”.
“Um, nothing much, we have been working and hoping to continue our studies”. Mia said.
: ” Wait! Don’t tell me you both are still undergraduates?”.
“We are, we work to save money for school”. Maya said and they were surprised.
” Exactly, Maya here is already having an online class”.Mia said.
“Why online class, why not go directly to the school?” Justin asked.
“I will, but after I am done with the class and then gain admission to the university”. Maya said.
: ” How can you manage to go through the university? If I can remember clearly you had to skip school many times because you couldn’t avoid the fees,” she said sassily and Maya became embarrassed.
“Who told you she can’t avoid the fees? She has saved up for it”. Mia retorts back and they stare hard at each other, Maya feels Mia’s hand under the table to ease her anger.
“You don’t need to think like that Lisa, before she decided to go on with school, it meant she had to save a lot for it and I am super proud to hear that, is not an easy task to sponsor oneself through school”. Justin said.
: ” Justin is damn right”. The rest agree except Lisa.
“Really? You guys think one can sponsor herself to school because she saves up for it?” She scoffs.”I don’t think so, even if you–“. she got interrupted.
“What are you trying to say?” Maya cut in rudely
“What I am saying is that you probably find yourself some rich guy to get laid with and then promise to sponsor you through school, because you can’t afford it”. she said staring straight into Maya’s eyes, Everyone stared surprisedly at her, Maya got angry and spilled her drink on her.
” How dare you, Listen, Lisa, I know we weren’t compatible at school, but that doesn’t give you the right to talk to me like that”. She said unlikely, Mia was pleased with what she did, and the rest was caught off guard by Maya’s reaction.
“How dare ruin my dress!” Lisa retaliates, she tries to pick up a fight but Justin stops her quickly.
“That’s enough, this is supposed to be a party”. he said and faced Lisa.” Lisa, you were being rude to Maya, how can you question her character like that”.
“I was only stating the obvious”. She said angrily.
: ” You were wrong about that, you need to apologize to her”.
: “Yes, apologize to her”.
“Why am I seen as a bad person, why should I apologize to her, didn’t you see what she did to me?”.
” You deserve it because you were being rude”.Mia said.
“Never! She will pay for this, I can’t believe you guys are talking side with her”. She took her bag and walked away.
: ” Lisa will never change, I wonder why she still has this beef with Maya”.
: “We know she hates competitors, and Maya was her competitor back then in school”.
: “Yeah, I remember Maya beat her in her score, that’s why she still has beef with her”.
“Are you ok?” Justin asked talking to Maya.
“Yes, am fine”.
: ” Let the party continue”.
Lisa came to the restroom to clean her body up.
“I can’t believe she had the nerve to ruin my clothes, I promise you, Maya, you won’t get away with this”. she said angrily staring at herself in the mirror, After a while, she came out and was surprised to see two unfamiliar men on suit with a man in their middle, she gasped as she quickly recognized the one in the middle staring hard at her, her bag fell off her hand.” Mr.williams”.She sputtered and Jayden rushed to her quickly She leaned against the wall feeling scared.” Please don’t hurt me, I haven’t done anything”. she pleaded.
“Really? You haven’t done anything wrong? but you just insulted me”.
” How? I–“she got interrupted.
“Quiet! ” He yelled and Lisa went mute sobbing.”You see that lady in there that you just insulted, I want you to go back to her and apologize to her, do you understand me?”.
“y-y-yes sir”. she sputtered looking scared, She tried to leave, but jayden called her back.
” And one more thing, that thing you said earlier about trying to deal with her, take it back because if I find any scratches on her body, I will find you and I will make sure I break every bone in your body and then feed your flesh to the dogs, now scram!.”He threatened and Lisa picked to her heels.
The rest were still having fun when they saw Lisa running in their direction and they could see how scared she looked.
: “Is she ok?”. Lisa rushed to where Maya was and fell on her knees.
“Please Maya forgive me, I promise not to trouble you again”. she said sincerely.
: ” What is up with her?”.
“Why do you look scared? Is something wrong?” Maya asked.
“Please just forgive me and I will never bother you again”. She said.
” Sure, I don’t have any grudges against you, you can stand up now”. Maya said and Lisa stood up and thanked her before rushing out.”That’s strange “. she said and her eyes suddenly caught sight of a familiar figure in the lobby talking to someone.” Jayden?”.
“Are you ok?” Mia asked.
“Jayden is here “. she whispered and Mia turned in that direction and she went surprised.
” Why is he here? I thought-“. she whispered
“I guess he had something to do with Lisa’s behavior”.Maya said.
” Is everything okay?”Justin asked interrupting their whispering.
“Yes, everything is fine”. Maya said.
” Ok, let’s have fun”.
: Let’s cheer to life”.
They raise their glasses and cheer, Maya was stealing gazes at Jayden and their eyes met and they started talking through their eyes.
: “So, Justin, I was mainly to ask, you know you were once the cutest guy in school back then, so do you have any love expert”.
“Um, not really, still hoping to find one”. he said smiling.
: ” Are you serious, Is being ages man!”.
“Yeah, I know”.
: ” OK, let me make this straight, Do you have someone you like among the girls here?”.
“I do, but I was too dumb not to realize it sooner”. he said.
: ” Aww, tell us who she is”
“Yes, tell us”. Mia said.
He ” Well, she” He stared secretly at Maya.”She is–“he got interrupted as Maya stood up to leave followed by Mia
“Am sorry guys, I think I have to leave, is getting late “.
” Ok, I can drop you off”. Justin said as he stood up.
“No, you don’t have to”. Maya said.
” But I insist”.
“Come on Justin, maybe some other time, you all should continue the fun”. She said as she walked away with Mia, Justin stared after them.
Maya and Mia came out of the restaurant, they saw Jayden already waiting for them in the car.
“Get in”. he orders and they enter quickly. The driveway to Mia’s place was quiet, soon they arrived at Mia’s apartment.
” Thanks for the ride,” She said to jayden and he smiled at her in response.
“I will chat up with you later, good night”. Maya said.
” Good night, drive safety”. she waved at them as they zoomed off.
Along the driveway, Jayden pulled Maya closer as he kissed her lips softly, Maya was caught off guard by his sudden moves.
“What are you doing?” She asked as she pulled away from him.
“What does it look like I am doing”. he replied, and tried to kiss her, but Maya pushed back.
” We can’t”.
“Why not?”. he asked and she saw her staring at the driver.” Why? Is it because of him?” she nodded.” I don’t care” ” He pulled her to sit on his lap, and Maya blushed shyly.
“What if he sees us?”.
” He won’t”. He pressed a red button on the car and a black-tinted window rolled up from the driver seat.” How about that”. He smiled and caressed her in his arms.
“Why were you in the restaurant earlier? Did you come to spy on me?”. She asked with her arms around his neck.
” I just came there to see someone”. he replied placing kisses on her neck.
“Really? Why am I not so surprised?”.
” You shouldn’t “.
” Did you threaten Lisa?”.
“Who is Lisa?”. he asked staring into each other eyes.
” Don’t play dumb with me, I know you threatened her that’s why she came back to apologize”.
“Well I did, No one messes with what’s close to me and then goes scot-free”.
” Hmm, I see”.
“So, can I get a reward for that?”.
” What reward?”.
“For helping you out in there”.
” Nah, you didn’t help me”. She tries to pull away from his arms, but jayden holds her tight to himself.
“Where do you think you are going?”.
” Doesn’t occur to you that the car stopped a while ago, which means we are home already, so, let go”.
“But you haven’t given me my reward”. he said as they stared into each eyes lovingly.
