Kj had met a girl and had went off to talk to her so I was here by myself. I was standing by the door at the back of the room drinking some champagne as I watched him up on stage at the front of the room giving a speech.
"Isn't he just so perfect?" I looked over at her to see her gawking shamelessly at him. "I could just eat him up."
She look like she hungry, nthn really cyaan guh suh.
"I'm sure his girlfriend wouldn't appreciate you ogling him like that."
"So the rumors are true then?"
"What rumors?"
"That he's seeing someone because I saw the picture he posted on Instagram but I didn't want to believe it. I know you're close to the family so tell me if it's true?"
"It's not my business to tell but I'm curious though so tell me, is there something going on between the both of you?" I had the opportunity to get my answers so why not take it.
"I wish there was but he won't give me the time of day no matter how much I throw myself at him." She put her hand over her heart and sighed. "He's so nice to me, I couldn't help but be attracted to him." He did that to you and wouldn't even realize until you were in love with him.
Take me for example, falling headfirst into this love pond knowing that if my life jacket somehow slipped off, I could drown.
"That's how he is with everybody."
"I know but no man has ever been this kind to me without wanting to fuck so I was drawn to that. Can you put in a good word for me?" I was stuck between laughing and crying because there was no way she was asking me to do that.
"I can't."
"Pretty please?"
"He has a girlfriend."
"You're right, I shouldn't do this." Now we were getting somewhere. "But I can't help it that I want him and I don't care if he has a girlfriend." I would never willingly go after a man that I knew had a girlfriend but some women were just cut from a different cloth. "Pretty please just put in a good word for me?"
Let me get this straight.
She was asking me to put in a good word for her with MY Man that she didn't know was my man so he could be with her even though she knew he was in a relationship, just not with who?
Nthn really cyaan guh suh fi true.
"I can't do that, I'm sorry."
"I'll pay you."
"What?" I asked in disbelief almost spitting out my drink because there was just no way.
I could definitely see what she was going crazy over because I too was crazy over him but girl, be for real.
