Tasha: "Here drink some water." She had a glass of water in her hand. I was back on the couch now. After I had puked my guts out sobbing, I had sat there on the bathroom floor feeling numb as hell and staring into nothing. After a long while, Tasha had helped me up and led me to the couch. I took the glass with my shaking hands. Actually it wasn't only my hands that were shaking. It was my whole being. My very core. I drank the water making gulping sounds, I even had snot coming out of my nose. I was a mess but I didn't care.
Me: "Let's go out." I suddenly blurted out.
Tasha: "W-what? What do you mean-."
Me: "Let's go out. I want to go out now." I said standing up.
Tasha: "Woah woah woah! Firstly let's calm down." She said pushing me back down on the couch. She took the glass from my hands and set it down on the table... "now, I don't think going out will be a good idea with how you are right now-."
Me: "What do you mean? I'm perfectly fine Tasha. Call the girls and let's go out." I said standing up again.
Tasha: "Hey listen to me Precious okay. You are not fine and anyways that man of yours is coming back, we should wait for him-."
Me: "Tasha please please please! I swear if I stay even one more minute here I'll go crazy!" I said in stress... "I need to distract myself so I won't be in my head and having good time is the only way to do that. So please call the girls and let's go out." She must have heard the desperation in my voice because she sighed relenting.
Tasha: "Okay okay I'll call the girls and we'll go out-."
Me: "Thank you thank you Tasha! You're the best." I said hugging her... "now let's go, you'll call them on our way there." I said pulling her with me to the door.
Tasha: "Woah woah slow down Precious." She said stopping, making me stop.
Me: "What?" She snorted out a laugh.
Tasha: "First of all you need to wipe the snot from your face." I used the sleeves of the jacket I was wearing to wipe off the snot.
Me: "Done. Let's go."
Tasha: "Eww!" She said frowning in disgust... "hell no girl!"
Me: "What?" I shrugged... "I wiped it as you said, let's go."
Tasha: "You're not going out looking like that. Jeez!"She was looking at me like I was crazy... "and anyways I need to change out of my pjs." She pointed out to me. I hadn't even noticed she was in her pjs... "come, you can borrow some of my clothes." She said pulling me along to her bedroom... "if we're going out, we need to look sexxzy as we always do girl." She said touching her finger to her tongue and making a sss sound.The time was 10:30pm now, and we were ready to go. I was wearing the skimpiest dress ever. It was black. And it left nothing to imagination. And since I was a little bigger than Tasha, the dress was tighter and shorter on me. I also had on black stilettos to go with it. And heavy make up on my face. This was my usual look when I went out partying with my friends. The uber arrived and Tasha and I got in. All the way to the club I was feeling antsy and fidgety. I wanted to get alcohol in my system as in like yesterday. I needed to quiet my mind and drown the pain and torture I was feeling inside. Tasha put her hand over my shaky hands.
Tasha: "You sure you want to do this? Maybe we should go back-." I shook my head.
Me: "I need this Tasha." My voice even cracked to prove how near to my breakdown I was. I really needed this night out. She nodded.
Tasha: "Okay then. Let's get this party started!" She shouted whooping. I laughed. That's why I loved Tasha. She was a whole mood.
Me: "Yes! Let's do this! Let's get twisted!" I shouted trying to match her energy. She laughed.
Tasha: "I have a feeling that, that man of yours is going to freak." I shrugged not caring. He hadn't kept his promise. He said two hours and two hours had long passed. It has been exactly 4 hours and he was still not back. So I had to do what I had to do... "I'll tell him that it was all your idea, just so you know."
Me: "Since when did you become a scaredy cat?" I teased. She snorted.
Tasha: "Me?" She pointed to herself... "a scaredy cat? No way in hell for that!" She told me being all sassy... "it's just that, I know which people not to mess with. And that man of yours is not to be messed with." She told me... "he's not an ordinary man, I tell you."
Me: "What do you know?"
Tasha: "Me? Nothing. I just can see it from the way he carries himself." She told me... "the way he carries himself, it's like he owns the place and I'm sure a man like that has a lot of people dancing on the palm of his hands to do his deeds." She said patting her palm with her other hand... "which tells me that he's a very dangerous man too."
Me: "You're very perceptive." I told her swallowing. She smiled.
Tasha: "It's both my skill and speciality darling." She flipped her weave back... "you know this." I did. But hadn't expected her to have the king pegged down so quickly. Soon she'll even figure out his line of work. Yeesh!
Me: "Let's not talk about him." I said waving my hand... "don't worry I'll take full responsibility of tonight. I'll handle him."
Tasha: "Hmmmm tshisa wena moghurl! Uthi you'll handle him? Ayeye!" She said giving me the look and I laughed... "okay, I trust you. My life is in your hands."
Me: "What did Kamo and Bonnie say?"
Tasha: "They said they'll meet us there." She told me and I nodded... "they're so excited to party with you. They've missed you a lot."
Me: "I've missed them too."We were in one of the clubs in Long Street. I was on my fifth shot going to my sixth, and the alcohol was buzzing nicely through me. The club was packed as usual and I was on the dance floor with my friends dancing up a storm...being wild. When I had said we partied hard, that's what I really meant. Dancing was a thing I loved to do especially with alcohol cursing through my blood stream giving me the boost and energy I needed. I went to the bar and signaled the bartender to give me two more shots. When I got my shots, I downed them both right there on the spot and went back to the dance floor. My head was really swimming in alcohol now. I felt free and numb from all my troubles. This is exactly what I wanted. Somebody grabbed my waist...it was probably some guy and I just moved against them not caring. The dress now was sticking on me because of the heat and sweat. Suddenly the person who was holding my waist was pushed away roughly from me and a new sets of hands grabbed my waist. These hands were different. They were bigger and felt more manly somehow. I turned my face to see who it was and my eyes clashed with black furious ones. I turned around fully and I threw myself at him and he caught me easily, his hands having a grab on my thighs.
Me: "Myyyy Kiiiiing!" I shouted happily... "you're heeerrree!" I said hugging him... "I'm so haapppyyy that you're heeeerrree!" I carried on shouting happily... "do you know how I've miiiisssed youuu?" I pulled back and looked at him with a big smile on my face. Even if his face was a bit blurry, I could still see it fine. He was frowning... "why don't you looook happpy? Who made you unhappy? Mh? Teeelll meee I'll go and puunnch them iiin the face for youuu." I said brushing out his frowned brow... "whoooo? Hurry up and telll meee!" He said nothing. I giggled... "you're not going to tell me? Okay okay. Then let's dance. Put me down so we can dance okay?" I wiggled down from him and started to dance as he stood there still as a rock. I circled him with my finger brushing at him seductively, then I started to twerk my ass to his front. I turned to look at him and I saw that his eyes were focused on my ass as I had wanted. He gritted his teeth and looked more furious than he was. I laughed and I did a drop, then I worked up my ass while doing a wiggle against his member. He suddenly pulled me to him. My back was flat to his front.
Kumkani: "That's enough beautiful." He whispered to my ear. Even though his voice sounded angry, it did things to my body causing the daredevil in me not to listen. I carried on dancing, tempting him with my ass and then suddenly I found myself over his shoulder being carried out of the club. I was laughing and calling out to my friends the whole way out. When we got to his car, he put me down to my feet and opened the door for me. Instead of me getting in the car as he wanted, I threw myself at him and again he caught me so easily. I giggled.
Me: "I like that! You catch me soooo easily my king." I was smiling big... "aren't I tooo heavy?"
Kumkani: "No."
Me: "Reaaaally?"
Kumkani: "Yes."
Me: "Reaally reaaally reeaaaallly?" He said nothing.
Kumkani: "Let's go home little beauty-."
Me: "Nooooo!"
Kumkani: "Little-."
Me: "Shhhhhh!" I said putting my finger over his lips... "whaaat about my friends? I can't leave them kaloku my king." I told him... "I'm a good good friend mna." I said pointing to myself... "we have a rule. We never ever leave the party without each-."
Kumkani: "Your friends will be fine. Zack will take them home." I frowned.
Me: "Zack? Who's Zack?" He said nothing.... "ooooooohhhh! I remember I remember now." I giggled... "he's the one that called me ma'am." I giggled some more hitting the king's shoulder... "can youuu believe it my king, he called me ma'am? Isn't that funny?"
Kumkani: "Yes it is beautiful."
Me: "Then why aren't you laughing?" I asked him... "you never laugh...you never smile...ooh yes you do smile...you smile with youur eyes but never with your mouth. Why my king?" He just watched me and said nothing... "you should smile like this." I said pushing the corners of his mouth upwards with my fingers... "like this...okay?" He said nothing. I sighed pouting... "you never talk tooo me."
Kumkani: "I talk to you more than I talk to anybody else beautiful." I smiled.
Me: "Really?"
Kumkani: "Yes."
Me: "That makes me sooo happpyyy!" I said throwing my hands up... "are you mine?"
Kumkani: "Yes."
Me: "Am I yours?"
Kumkani: "Yes."
Me: "Forever and ever?"
Kumkani: "Yes."
Me: "Do you love me?"
Kumkani: "Yes." I giggled happily covering my mouth.... "Let's go home." He put me inside the car, on the passenger seat and buckled up my seatbelt for me. He closed the door and went to enter his side. He started the car and drove off.
Me: "My king..." I called him after a long while. My head was against the window now. For some reason I was back to feeling miserable.
Kumkani: "Yes beautiful."
Me: "I-I'm so so so scared of the bad man." He took my hand in his and squeezed it.
Kumkani: "No need for you to be scared little beauty. I won't let the bad man get to you."
Me: "Pinkie promise?"
Kumkani: "Pinkie promise." He said wrapping his pinkie with mine......
