The time was now 7:00pm and I had managed to work some magic in the kitchen and whip up a feast consisting of curry chicken, baked mac and cheese, plain rice, fried plantain and coleslaw - I even had time to make a jug of my famous rum punch. Cooking was something I was very passionate about and from a young age I had always dreamed of one day owning my own food franchise selling the finest Caribbean dishes.
"I'm soo excited to eat man" Vanessa sighed as she took the sprinkle cake that she had insisted on making for dessert out of the oven to cool "The way I'm gonna fuck this food up ain't even gonna be funny"
"Girl, just make sure you close your mouth when you're chewing today" I half joked due to the fact that Vanessa had a tendency to chew her food obnoxiously when we were at home "Your mans gonna be here and I don't have time for you to be embarrassing yourself"
She busted out laughing "Shut up Sydney man, I've had enough of you always getting on to me about my chewing"
"It's cause it's very annoying"
"Well for your information I've been practicing my chewing and I think I've gotten it down to a fine art" Vanessa spoke in a matter of factly tone as she picked up a grape from our fruit bowl and popped it into her mouth to demonstrate her new chewing technique
"We'll see how long that lasts" I laughed as I finished packing the dishwasher
"Anyways I'm gonna go straighten my hair before the boys get here, I've gotta look cute for my husband" Vanessa gushed as she strutted out the kitchen causing me to laugh
"Let me even do the same" I said to myself as I gave the kitchen a once over to check if everything was in order before making my way to my room
"THEY'RE ON THEIR WAY" Vanessa shouted from the hall "HE SAID THEY'LL BE 30 MINUTES"
"COOL"
I quickly went to my house clothes draw deciding on replacing my romper with another just to get rid of the cooking smell from my clothes. Once my clothes were on I released my already straightened hair from my bonnet and brushed out my lash extensions with a spoolie before deciding on filling in my brows a little
"Bye I'm soo pretty what the hell!" I gassed myself up as I looked at my reflection in the mirror whilst spraying myself down with one of my Zara perfumes which I only reserved for wearing in the house.
"Syd! Do I look okay?" Vanessa came bursting into my room "Ooo you look cute sis" she slapped my bum before she threw herself on my bed
"Thank you" I laughed as I gave her a once over "Nah you look fire Vanessa, Merkz is one lucky man"
"I know" she joked as she flipped her hair over her shoulder "This is the set you gave me you know"
"It looks proper nice on you" I complimented her as I examined the way the grey two piece lounge set looked amazing on her rich chocolate brown complexion
"I'm not gonna lie Syd, I've got butterflies you know" Vanessa sighed throwing herself back on my bed dramatically
"Awww, not big Ness being nervous" I teased her "You'll be fine babe trust me, let's not forget that less than 24 hours ago you were practically eating this mans face yeah"
We both erupted with loud laughter which was quickly interrupted by Vanessa's phone ringing. The name 'Merkz 💕" flashed up on her screen causing us both to look at each other
