DEMONS YOU MADE

53✓✓

VALERIE.

I checked myself at the mirror for the umpteenth time today. I wore a black fitted gown with my white stiletto heels. I took my white clutch purse to finish the look. I brushed my black bone straight again which stopped below my ass. I did a minimal makeover of brown powder and lip gloss.

Today is the day I'd be meeting Malik's family. He sent me a text yesterday saying I should be ready by 1:00pm. It's 1:04 and I'm set. He's not yet here. Later, they'll say girls take more time to get dressed.

I'm so sorry for being late. Had stuffs to attend to. I'm outside your gate.

-LOML❤️

I picked my clutch purse and left my room. Nessa was in the living room watching a show on E!Entertainment.

"Going somewhere?" She asked and I rolled my eyes. Would I just dress up so fancy to stay at home or go water the gardens? Urghhh... people and foolish questions. But I didn't tell her this..lol.

"Yes, I'd be out with a friend" I told her giving my fakest smile. She nodded and continued what she was watching.

"Have fun!" She shouted.

"Sure" was the last thing I said before dashing out of the house entrance. I walked to the gate and the security let me out. I saw Malik making a call by his car. When he saw me, he dropped the call and walked towards me.

"Always radiating. You're my sunshine" awwn...I blushed.

"Thank hun. You look handsome." I said placing a kiss on his cheek. He wore a light pink vintage shirt and white pants. He finished the look with white Nike Jordans. Ohmigawd...I remember seeing this particular Jordans online. #97,000.How can a human being spend such on shoes?

Says the girl that bought a bone straight wig of #130,000. My subconscious said.

In my defense, a wig is different from a shoe. This wig can last me forever, but the shoe? It'll get spoilt or worn out obviously.

"Valerie?Are you alright?" Malik asked. I turned. Why did he have to yell? When I'm sitting close to him.

"Yeah. Why?"

"This is the third time I'm calling you. It looks like you were having a mental battle with yourself" As if you know seff!

"No, I'm good. Just a little bit nervous" I told him. I was wondering how his family would be like? What about his wicked step-mom.

"It's cool. My family are cool. You'll love them"

We arrived the big mansion. It was the same mansion we had that party many months back. The all-pink soiree.

We got down from the car. The house looked more magnificent in the daytime. We walked in hands locked together. Immediately, we entered I saw Jemmy sprawled on the sofa with her phone in her hands.

"Ohmy! My sister-in-law is here. Mom! They're here" she yelled. I smiled as she pulled me into a hug. I'll still never remember when we got this close from being diehard enemies.

A pretty young woman walked down the spiral stairs. She looked to be in her early forties. She had this flawless face and her smile was like that of Jemmy. Bingo! She has to be Jemmy's mom.
