WHAT A JOURNEY: Chapter 1 – 20

We got outside and walked to the parking lot, I fished out my car key and pressed the unlock button, the car beeped indicating that it has unlocked.

“So you won’t be partying with us tonight huh?” Henry asked.

“Or maybe, we could just go together and meet this new friend of his and then we all go to the party” Ruby suggested and I turned to them.

“Uh, no need for that” I replied. I really don’t want them to come along, cause they will get to know that the person is Marichuiy, they will make fun of her and me too.

“Oh come on, at least I’m supposed to know who your new friend is to make sure he’s safe to be with” Michael stated.

“Or she” Bathny added.

“Yea, it could be a she” Kiwi backed up.

“I said no need for that” I argued.

“You you gotta choose one, it’s either we go with you or you forget it and come to the party with us.” Ruby stated.

“Yes” everyone chorused.

“Really, that’s how you wanna make it?” I asked them and they all nodded.

I thought about it for a minute, I really don’t want to get Marichuiy into trouble with them, so I had to choose the party.

“Fine, I’ll go to the party with you” I replied. But then I got a second thought, how about during the time we will all go home to change and come out for the party, I’ll go to Marichuiy’s house instead and then switch off my phone. Yea, that’s what I’m gonna do.

“And before you will try to outsmart us, Ruby is gonna go home with you” Michael stated. Whaaaaat! This guy is a smart dev*l, how did i forget that. I Palmed my face in my mind.

“Yea, I’m gonna call my buttler to get my dress to your house or better still, I’ll take your clothe” Ruby added, he patted my shoulder and got into my car.

The rest giggled and got into their cars and drove off, I stood there transfixed, what sort of friends are these.

“Dude come on, this car won’t drive itself” Ruby called out from the car, I sighed and entered the car and zoomed off in high speed which made Ruby beg for his life, that’s what he gets for spoiling my plan.

WHAT A JOURNEY: Chapter 1 – 20

At the Club.

We sat at the VIP bar and the bar keeper mix some magarrito for us, we drank two glasses each and two shots of scotch, the boys got high.

Michael and Kira dragged each other to the dance floor and got lost in the crowd.

Kiwi ran to the toilet for like the 10th time, if she knows her head can’t contain much alcohol, she should probably stop taking it, but peer pressure she’s getting from Kira and Bathny won’t let her focus, she really have low self esteem but in small cute way, I still like her more than other girls in school.

“Would you look at that hottie” Henry breathed out as he stared behind Bathny.

I looked to the direction and saw a cute looking Arabian guy sitting alone at another VIP bar. He was wearing a Hawaiian shirt but his button were completely open exposing his really hot bare tanned chest. He looked about a year older that us though.

“You like that?” Bathny pointed in irritation.

“If you don’t like that, I wonder what’s your spec” Henry replied. He drank the last drop of his drink and stood up, he unbuttoned his shirt and asked me. “How do I look”

“You look ridiculous” Bathny replied, I gave her a brief stare and I didn’t need to be told what’s going on. She’s into Henry and she’s angry that he’s crushing on a hot guy.

“I didn’t ask you” Henry fired at her. She rolled her eyes at him but deep into her eyes, I could see disappointment and embarrassment, so I decided to back her up

“But she’s right, you look ridiculous” I chuckled out.

“Y’all bches are just jealous that I found me my Mr. Right, die on it, I’m outta here” he breathed out and rushed off.

Bathny and I were now the only ones on at the bar, and we went silent for a while before she broke it. “You know he looked really good and I was just lying about him looking ridiculous, why did you lie” she asked me out of the blue.

“I saw how embarrassed you looked, so I just wanted to help” I shrugged.

She took a sip from her drink and sighed deeply. “Is it bad to be in love with a g.ay?” She asked.

I leaned closer to her and replied. “To be honest with you, it’s not, it’s just a waste of time. Girl you are young and beautiful, I’ll advice you look for someone who would love and cherish you, Henry will never be that guy for you” I replied.

She grumbled and leaned her head on the table. I patted her back.

She finally raised her head up and finished the drink in her glass.

I felt a hand wrap around my shoulder from behind and then doubled. I looked up and saw two extremely hot girls staring down at me.

“Hey Dave, guess it my lucky day, gsh you are so cute” one of them said to me.

“Wanna dance” the other one asked as she caressed my face.

“No thank you” I replied.

“Oh come on” they persuaded.

“He said no, fk off” Bathny fired at them, she looks drunk.

“You heard my girlfriend, fvck off” I added.

“Jeez, alright, alright, chill” the first one replied and they walked away.

“Thanks” I said to Bathny and she shrugged.

“Just one question, why do you come here when you don’t actually do anything?” She asked me.

“I just wanna be out of the house sometimes, also those duck heads drags me all the time” I answered and she laughed while I chuckled.

She looked behind me and suddenly stopped laughing. Her face went completely pale and hard, tears rolled down her cheeks but she wiped them off immediately.

“Why the sudden mood swing” I asked and looked behind me to know what changed her mood but I only saw people dancing and some kssing and all that.

“I thought I saw someone, my ex bestie” she said.

“Ex bestie, well why aren’t you guys friends again?” I asked.

“Something bad happened to her and my parents warned me to stay away from her otherwise they will send me to a boarding school all the way to England…..” She sniffed and fresh tears rained down her face, I think the alcohol is affecting her in a way. “I don’t wanna go to England” she cried out. “But I feel so bad for abandoning her when she needed me the most. The memories of the times we shared hunts me all the time” she whined in tears.

“Then help her, how will your parents know?” I asked.

“Walls and trees have eyes and ears, you never can tell who’s watching” she replied and snapped at the barman to get her more drunk but I waved my hand at the guy not to bring another drink for her, I think she has had enough to last a whole week.

“Whoever she is, she was a better friend to you than that Kira will ever be, I don’t know why you and that cute one Kiwi decided to be friends with that bch of all the bches in school” I asked.

She chuckled and shrugged. “I don’t even know how I got to that friendship either”
She cleaned her face and looked closely behind me. “It’s really her, what the h*ll is she doing here” she mumbled to herself.
I turned behind me and almost froze when I saw her.

Marichuiy?

They both stared at each other for some minutes before Bathny ran off. But what is Marichuiy doing here?

She walked carefully to me and God she looks good, to my most dismay. She sat on the chair Bathny was sitting on. She snapped at the batman to get her a drink.

“Hi” she said without looking at me.

“So, cur$ed girl by day and party girl by night huh?” I asked her.

“Wrong, I’ve never been to a club in my life” she stated.

“So what happened today” I asked.

“So I saw this guy in my dream and he told me to meet him here, that he can help me get free from this cur$e. That’s why I’m here……”

“How…”
