Shattered

Danger

"What was he doing here?" Allyson asks . She runs her hand through her hair .

"He was drunk and couldn't drive himself home Ally . So I offered him a place to sleep..." I say lowly .

"Didnt I say specifically for you to stay away from him?" She asks .

"You did." I hang my head low in shame .

"What part of that did you not understand. Gemima I'm trying to protect you , do you want to see yourself hurt?

You let a complete stranger into our home. What if he'd stolen our stuff? What if he had died in here? What if he'd raped you? Oh my goodness Gemima. I'm so disappointed in you." She says shaking her head in disapproval.

"I'm sorry." Is all I can say .

She nods and leaves . She doesnt say anything else .

It kinda felt like I was in trouble with my mother . She really can be strict . But I love her for it.

Now to look for something fun to do on a Saturday. 

Ooh! Ally and I can go to that wine tasting convention.

"Hey Ally!" I yell. Padding my feet to her room.

The light pink coloured room is filled with Beyonce's beautiful voice.  She's playing her album Lemonade.

"What?" She says gently . She's typing something on her laptop.

"Are you going to be busy today? We could go to that wine tasting convention. " I say to her .

The way my voice fluctuates makes me seem like a child .

She looks up,  and seems to be in deep thought. Then her mouth makes a perfect " o " she looks at me with the 'I'm so sorry' look .

"I promised Colt that I'd go to dinner with him and his family ." She says .

"You're meeting Colt's family?" I ask her.

Like meeting your boyfriend's family is a huge step . It's you literally saying that you're ready to take things to the next level . They must be getting pretty serious . Or ...

"Are you pregnant?" I ask .

Her eyebrows rise so high , you'd swear they're a part of her mob of hair.

"What? No! Why would you assume that?" She asks . It's as if she's about to spit her heart out in shock.

"I dont know . Like meeting his parents? That's a bold move , that's like the both of you saying that y'all are like soulmates you know.

Like what happens if y'all break up , then? " I ask her . Sitting on her bed .

The side dips as she sits next to me.

"Dont be pessimistic.  And if things dont work out , then oh well, that's the way life goes. Sometimes you just have to take risks .

And I actually believe that Colt and I are made for each other ." She says getting up .

"Sorry about the convention thing." She says over her shoulder .

Okay,  so what's plan b?

Oh, I'll ask Ty.

I quickly ramage through my stuff in the closet . What outfit says wine tasting?

Well wine tasting sound like something rich people do, so I'm thinking maybe a gown or a cocktail dress .

"Ally!" I whine .

"Blue gown with the long slit!" She yells from the kitchen.

Oh she's good.
