Unfortunately
it is so. Thank goodness Remy had realised the error also and as she was such a
quick thinker, pulled me up spun her around quickly so that her exposed panties
were not on show to the whole world. Sadly it was a little too late, a couple
of people had already spotted the misdemeanour and were in fits of laughter.
Kemi mumbled a few incoherent words to The Suitor and allows Remy to usher her
past the people looking to see what was so funny. Once again, my gist will be everywhere! WHY ALWAYS ME?
They
get upstairs and Kemi is too upset to do anything but hold back tears of
frustration and change into leggings and a tank top. Stephanie who had seen the
whole thing followed them to her room
Steph:
Babe it really wasn’t that bad, nobody saw everything I swear
Remy:
That’s what I’ve been trying to tell her! Babe don’t cry and spoil your make
up.
Kemi:
**exasperated** it’s easy for you to say; the whole world didn’t just see your
bride price! And did you see the smug look on the Ex’s face? I could have
slapped him! I’m so ashamed right now; I definitely can’t go back down there!
Steph do you mind if I just stay in your room for a while?
Steph:
Suit yourself, but it really wasn’t that bad. Trust me, I’ve seen far worse!
Imagine if you were actually fat now!
Remy:
You can’t stay up here for the rest of the night oh! Don’t even think about it
girl!
Out
of the blue, there’s a knock on the door, thinking it’s Nkechi coming to join
the gang Steph opens the door and lo and behold none other than the Suitor.
Suitor:
Do you mind if I come in?
Steph,
Remy: Glance hastily at Kemi and back again to the Suitor.
Kemi:
No not really, it’s over anyways.
Steph
and Remy quietly leave the room without another word, leaving just Kemi and the
Suitor in this slight awkwardness that highlights the room.
Suitor:
I’m really sorry about your skirt baby, but you still look beautiful in the
tights though
Kemi:
They are leggings!
Suitor:
Oh. My bad.
**more
awkwardness**
Suitor:
So you ready to come back downstairs? I wanted to introduce you to my friend.
Kemi:
What kind of fool is this? Introduce ke??
After the debacle that just ensued? God forbid! Id rather not go down right
now, I’m still pretty embarrassed to be honest.
Suitor:
**approaching her** Oh come here baby.
He
wraps his arms around her waist and pulls her close to him, he smells of
intoxicating cologne and manliness and Kemi can’t muster the willpower to make
him stop. Plus she doesn’t want to, she wraps her arms around his shoulders and
slowly he lifts her chin and locks his eyes unto hers, staring into his dark
brown eyes Kemi feels all the embarrassment and shame of the last few minutes
melting away. Slowly and passionately they kiss, their bodies moving together in
perfect harmony like waves in the ocean crashing at the shore and retreating to
the water just to come crashing again. Kemi releases her grip from his neck and
lifts her hands up.
Gosh Kemi, in Steph’s room??
But he’s such a good kisser though!
The
Suitor as if understanding exactly what she wants takes off her tank top and
removes his shirt, revealing abs that can cut through diamond. They kiss
quicker, like they just realised the world was coming to an end and the only
way to stop it is to exchange saliva as quickly as possible. The Suitor kisses
down her neck and on to her collarbone.
My life needs a soundtrack.
Now humming inwardly Keyshia Cole- Heaven Sent
**Ahem**
someone clears their throat, none of them had even been aware of the door being
opened. The Prince is standing in the doorframe looking at them with this looks
that says, “I nabbed you” on his face.
The
Prince: I figured if you were going to play me with anyone it would be Sola,
who’s this n*gga?
Luckily
The Prince wasn’t in the mood for a confrontation, he had come to the room looking
for Stephanie because the party was running low on drinks.
Kemi:
We should go back downstairs too, see if there’s anything I can do to help
Suitor:
Who is Sola? That dude from Amaranto?
Kemi: **kissing him** Yea that one. Hmm, so being weak in the knees isn’t a myth
huh? Who knew.
Suitor: **pulling away** were you guys together or
something?
Kemi: Why do
my moments always get ruined by some uncanny act or another? No, we’re just
quite close that’s all.
Taking his hand she forces him out of the room to
avoid further conversation and they head back to their friends.
